We are almost, (I say almost because we still have a helco connection, but we dont really use it much)off the electic grid. Its very nice. My last bill was 22 dollars. As long as you have a good system, you can live a pretty much normal life. Its especially nice when the power goes out, we don't even know it. It brings a feeling of freedom and independance as well. Kinda like being self-employed. Our system has 24 6 volt workaholic interstate batteries and 24 kyocera 130 watt pv's with two outback charge controllers and a xantrex 4024 60 hz inverter. Works great!
