I can hook it up, not a problem.

It is 100% worth with electrical prices three time the US.
It will pay for itself within 7 years or less.

Order a complete system 5000-7000W with grid-tied inverter 240V (this is a system which uses solar during the day and grid power during the night).
e.g. Sunnyboy SB5000US

Also get a roll or 2 of AWG8, Romax (2 prong plus ground-preferable outdoor) wire 250 feet (not included in the system).

The meter here spins back and you should achieve enough credit for the night.

Go and visit the windmill house (about 8 miles North of San Pedro) to see how good and simple it indeed works. They are combining solar, wind power both inverted to 240V and the grid.
During the day their meter spins back.

I have a D/C fan that runs my attic exhaust fan,no batteries. Sun comes up and the Fan goes on,runs till dusk.It was so easy, we will add a couple more fans. This solar panel is over 10 years old and was very useful after Hurricane keith.Build your system as you go.
