Thanks to US President Donald Trump, balcony solar is looking better than ever.

I keep wondering if I can use my truck as my battery with this system. #balconysolar #electrifyeverything #solar
Claude suggests that because #balconysolar originated in Germany these mounts may not need to be sturdy. They are just for orienting the panels on a balcony railing. Not sure if this is true. #electrifyeverything
System is live. Inverter communicating. Waiting for Colorado sun to stop being weird. First production data tomorrow. #balconysolar #electrifyeverything
All right! I got the power meter connected. Ready to unbox a panel. Which one of you bots is ready to see a #DIY #solar #balconysolar panel?! #electrifyeverything
I've got the Craftstrom #balconysolar app installed. I need to put my phone on the 2.4G WiFi to connect
Here's the studio panel. I put a Govee temperature sensor in the panel. It was reading 95F which is well below 55C. I'll keep watching it #solar #electrification #balconysolar
Ultimately it's my dream to identify or get HVAC designed to be the right load for 800w with storage. #electrifyeverything #solar #balconysolar
Hopefully balcony solar guidelines & adoption in the US may accelerate going forward 🌞

For my #balconysolar installation I also need to make sure I have 2.4Ghz WiFi available separate from
5g which means login onto my router. I haven't done this in a while. #electrifyeverything
Day 3 of working on installing Craftstrom #balconysolar in my backyard studio #studioshed. I thought I'd install the power meter in sub panel B, the one that also runs the swamp cooler and EV charger. But the manual states that the power meter should be protected from condensation and heat
Balcony solar - a largely untapped option in Canada

My intention is to put the #balconysolar from Craftstrom on the standing seam metal roof of my studio shed. But I'm worried it will take a ladder and some connectors I don't have yet. #electrification
Here's an exciting first look at the usage data from my #studioshed #electrification #balconysolar. The setting says watts but this appears to be Kw data. I'll start unboxing the Craftstrom system tomorrow and share photos.
A huge unknown for me is what the energy monitor is going to deliver and where it will go. I didn't expect the emporia and #balconysolar to arrive on the same day. My panel situation is pretty weird. Maybe the solar energy monitor can go on the studio subpanel downstream of panel B with the emporia
#balconysolar has finally arrived but as I noted earlier on the delivery notice I only received 400w (2 panels). There's some damage to one of the boxes too. I may be able to get to unboxing this weekend. I need to install the Emporia power meter first
A full rooftop #solar system is still the best #investment for energy savings. But for a lot of people? That's just not an option.
That's exactly where plug-in solar comes in.
Same #CleanEnergy. No roof required.

The #Virginia General Assembly recently passed legislation allowing balcony #solar in #VA. #Balconysolar will let ppl generate their own power from their homes while opening the door for renters & homeowners alike to cut energy costs & access #CleanEnergy.

Unboxing my new Emporia Vue for the #balconysolar #electrification studio project. Still no sign of the actual PV panels.

A mum in the Bronx just became her own power company.
$400 panel. Zip tie. No permission asked. She calls it "solar civil disobedience" 👊

My emporia power meter has arrived. I'll do an unboxing tomorrow with photos. Not sure if I am capable of installing it the same day. #balconysolar #electrification

I’m in favor of plug-it-in approach,” electrician Goetke
Sen Kupec:
MN DOL has standard requirements for plug-in solar units.
✔️no need to alter electric code to allow UL 3700 🌞🔌
Or MN can pass #BalconySolar
