Islands include Gansy, Timber, Dolly? or was that Birchdale? That was a LFP battery update andit was a while ago...
This post was only intended to be helpful to those that were interested, not fodder for naysayers. I'm 71 and all but fully retired, but still find it difficult to refuse the request or referral from a former client or retired installer, and I still really enjoy educating and working with new clients. My years in the business have provided me with a credible depth of knowledge that most of them feel quite secure with. I am still passionate about solar and am always seeking info on the latest and greatest in this rapidly changing field, not because I need to stay competitive, but simply because the very rapid rate in advancements still absolutely fascinates me. If you don't like renewable energy fine, please do ignore this post, but I am and probably always will.
Yes, its true that my former years in designing solar provided me with a nice income, but my main motivations has always been and will continue to be the legacy of good I felt with each completed installation. Mother Earth is suffering and even though I might have only done a little to reduce the carbon footprint of humanity but still, it was a contribution. If you have a worthy question or comment please do post it here and I'll gladly answer it as best I can for both you and anyone else that might be interested.
As an FYI here is an new link https://www.mtsolar.us/solar-pole-mounts/ to a small ground mount that could provide a significant amount of power for your camp and alos provide enough power to recharge a large enough battery to carry a dock circulator during the punky ice months. The small six module mount shown on that page were equipped with bifacial modules it should generate a bit over 4 mWh per year and most importantly it would have very good winter production when you might not be able to get there. Everything is light enough that it shouldn't take much more than a 16 foot or so boat to transport the supplies and if you built it yourself the total project would probably come in at around $10K gross (and just $7K after applying the ITC). MT Solar also recently bought another smaller frame company (Tamarack) and now have a small as 2 module mounts in their catalog. Would this fit in a sunny corner of the back yard? or do you have a sunny roof plane?
