theyre just JEALOUS

Ive been considering adding solar panels for a couple of years now....never can seem to be bothered to do the MATH...I just run the generator at night (to recover the batteries from the day time consumption)....our gen is well w/in the db spec required by any campground.

We're headed to ABQ BalloonFiesta and they claim to enforce quiet time at 10p til 6a or something - so i guess ill run the gen during the day to keep the batteries up.

i figure id need about 400 bucks worth of panels alone (plus the charge controller).
