Nearly every day for the past 30 months, Mr. Spodek has lugged solar panels and a 17-pound battery up and down 11 flights of stairs to his roof to charge them.

Ok, that's commitment. I guess I should stop complaining about my crappy house and feeling that I am stuck on the grid. I at least have backyard and front yards.

This dude is just crazy enough to be my hero. I am legit going to change up some things because of this find. Thank you OP!
