Do you have a solar system?

Not yet. The plan is to get solar and battery but the installers I’ve spoken to have been somewhat unhelpful. For now we’re just on the wholesale pricing.

Lemmy.world seems to be groaning under the load of new users. Did you get my DM with the first flow? It never confirmed that it sent.

No DM yet! In fact I can only see this comment in my Inbox, not in the main discussion thread. Teething trouble!
