  1. Not enough pb screws ! Got it !
  2. Sorry , what’s wrong in the photo ?
  3. I know what he said . I saw it before it got deleted “ FFS - sort it out man . Kick some arse and make it happen . Look at @pocster he doesn’t pussy around “
  4. Ah ! Bum smells !!
  5. Isn’t that all part of your installers job though ??
  6. Nor me I’d just ring the DNO and ask . In theory it shouldn’t matter as you are removing something rather than adding . But you know it could come back and bite you …
  7. I would *just in case * - but as your storage is off the pv inverter they won’t care …
  8. Yeah I did wonder on Antigua that there might be a lack of B&Q, Porcellona , and tile show rooms. I am jealous I must admit. Every holiday is the Caribbean for me and I love it. Permanently wearing shorts ; as I do in the UK. 🤗 Also no need for ( walk on ) glazing - is music to my ears!
  9. Holiday???. You're on a tropical paradise island! - where would you go!!!😎
  10. I did wonder about the heat - must be punishing on a self build. 70k for outsourced labour is pretty good. So all the finishing e.g. tiling, boarding, fitting out, bathrooms, kitchen etc. etc - you doing that?
  11. What do you reckon your Labour costs will be ? . Assume you aren’t doing any of the build ??
  12. Cornwall is now your new Caribbean home !
  13. I have a core drill . It’s a slow and messy job . In the end I bought a really decent masonry drill bit and simply multiple holes I.e stitched the hole out . Was less effort and certainly less dust .
  14. Was due to go to Antigua- but Covid came along . Perhaps if we go this year I can visit !? . Am I allowed to ask your budget ?
  15. No . They had both options . It was my choice .
  16. I did ask what would be required to allow others to export more than the standard 3.8. She said extensive upgrade to infrastructure and sub station. So cost saving of not upgrading appears to be the factor . If this is true for a large majority of the country then it’s a severe limiting factor . “Fill yer boots “ but please don’t export too much 🙄
  17. Only what I was told when I was given the choice . Cost differential at the time was minimal, so I choose efficiently over appearance . Tbh my panels are jet black and look ok too me anyway .
  18. Slightly less efficient though
  19. Excellent point . I asked my DNO what would happen if all my immediate neighbors all requested pv and export . She said their export limits would be capped lower than mine I.e so the infrastructure could cope with a potential for maximum export . So yes - do it sooner rather than later .
  20. I’ve currently only got a lowly 4kw but am getting this upgraded to 7.2
  21. SWMBO has just come home . So now we are using all the solar and draining the battery 🙄🙄
  22. Yes - I am helping you . A minuscule fraction of that export goes to you . Aren’t I kind !
