Spent more time in the shed today, more bits needing to be made before I go back to trying to flog stuff at various gem festivals. So I have been a busy girl again. Stay warm you lot,

Have a read here http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/2574047 The battery back up or self powered idea is excellent but you won't get rich selling power back to the grid as the peak price times are not that common and the rate you can export back to the grid is rather small compared to the big generators, so not really cost effective in that regard but a lot better than giving the power away like many do now.dream4red wrote: ↑Wed Jun 07, 2017 1:24 am You will be proud of me Dot. I finished over a hundred pendants and fifty pairs of fffffffiddlly earings tonight. I think they look pretty good, so will let you know how well they do or don't sell. I am taking them off to a jayco weekend this weekend, so my good mates will tell me if they are worth all the effort. Hopefully, they will buy some pieces and pay for the weekend too. Pays to have good mates who like your stuff!
We finally had our solar hot water fixed today, by a very interesting gentleman. Turns our that he is a solar guru and was very impressed by our solar back up system. After he lusted after the computer controller and stuff, he told us that there is now a way use all the hardware we have, add a system called Reposit and a few more solar panels and we could be getting our house totally covered by solar and any power that we don't use would be sold back to the grid during peak times at peak prices not the miserable .06 cents that we get now. Terry, you might be able to comment on this. Have you heard or read anything about this Reposit stuff? We are seriously interested as it seems that we already have most of the requirements and they just need some refinements and bigger back up batteries. When we are not at home, the whole lot of solar panels would be paying for our trips as well.. , sounds a bit too good to be true?????
All this research and ffffffiddly jewellery making is sending me to dreamland, so off you all go. Nighty night. xxx
