When I bought my house, I was given the option of installing Solar "for free" or $5000 off my house price. (So really cost 5k).

I figured that 5k that will eventually pay for itself and having the conduit built from the roof to the basement was worth it.

After about a year, I figure my break even is just under 9-years. I got 6 solar 200w solar panels, inverter, IoT solar monitor, dual power source electrical panel, and two way power meter.

At a 20 year lifespan, I should see a net positive on the investment assuming I don't have to replace anything.i was talking to Skyfire (the installer) and they figure I can add 8 panels to my system, so eventually I'll probably add more, if the federal recovery plan includes solar I may expand next year.
