Most homes with families require at least a 3 kW system, and that's in the LA area. That doesn't stop most press releases from assuming a 1-2 kW load for "homes."

I have an 800 W unit on my roof. My combined gas & electric bills are in the near $10 range.

If I could sell power to PG&E I'd have a bigger array, but California law says any "excess" power I generate is a GIFT to PG&E.

Of course, Gov. Grayout's new scheme to tax solar power will be an added incentive for new instalations, won't it?...
