It was one year ago that we decided to add solar panels to our roof. If you plug in an old school light bulb and find that a current of 1/4 amp is flowing through it, you know that the power used by the bulb is (240) x (1/4), or 60 watts. In March 2020 we installed 9 solar panels an inverter and 2 battery packs.
