Yes I have as a matter of fact.  I actually like to build solar sheds so they power my lawn mower, whipper snipper etc. Presently I have about a KW of power I am waiting to install.   However I do apologize for my ignorant comment, it is clear you do know what you are talking about and likely a great deal more than me.  Sometimes I get carried away with my personal beliefs on these G&M boards and need to tone it down a bit.  thanks for your post.
