I am guessing at 63 kwh’s a day that you are all electric? That is about 10 times my daily average. I have gas cooking, water heater, clothes dryer and have all phantom loads on power strips. Y

How are your soldering skills. The solar cells are very fragile, expect to break a few.

Somewhere between building that first test panel and gettnig to your crap load of energy production you may want to analyze where the 63kwh/day are going. Invest in a kill-a-watt meter, google it if you are not familiar with it. It lets you see how much you are using on a given device over time.

Got to get back to work, will try to follow up more. Keep hoping someone else will chime in though.
