Solar Power Update

Okay, when last we talked I was considering my options when it came to how to get 120 VAC power within Wanda, economically. I need this so I can power my laptop and charge my cellphone (without leaving it plugged into Treabilla with the windows down so I can hear it ring.

I have checked around and there are better options when it comes to a permanent installation within Wanda. I found a place where I can get a single 250 watt panel and system (with 1000 Watt True sign wave inverter) for about $1000.00. Add to that the installation cost of an estimated $500.00 or more. I just don’t want to install it myself and end up with holes in my roof or a hack job on the interior.

All that said, I need to be willing to drop $1500 .00 – $2000.00 for this system. My simple solution of just under $500.00 is looking like the prudent option at this point. It will do what I need but not cost too much. I can get a better solar solution installed down the road but for my piece of mind I need to make headway on these credit cards.

I have already been six months on this journey with little headway to show for it. As it is I have a trip to the coast that will cost me around 500.00 in fuel. I need to take this trip to deliver this furniture and it will be good to see family. I hope to have my first card done by the Sept 7 paycheque.
