    No particular issue, I'm with Solar City. I've got issues with my house being so old and their engineering/liability hesitations. But that's because of my house.

    Solar system is running well, My wife mentioned something about us owing solar city a $ or something because the system over produced according to the contract. But i'll have to re-check on that.

    2014 my system produced:
    3,214.8 kWh
    If you need a referral or need to know more, PM me and I can add you to my Solar City referral/profile/sales info. no catch from me anyways. Free quotes from SC.

    That doesn't mean "stairs are bad" nor does it make someone who pushes someone down the stairs any less of an asshole.

    My neighbor drives a Namaste solar truck, but he seems young so I've never talked to him about it.

    My hang up is that I have United Power, so I have limited options compared to XCEl. I have to different purchase options for the panels, but I am required to buy them because of United Power.

    Let me rephrase. He had to jump start his car one morning, so he sold it and bought something else.

    Seems about normal for the younger crowd.

    Interesting. I wonder what the people like solar city do about that? I'll ask my rep and get back to ya.

    The local power company can tell you that you HAVE to buy the panels? I'm interested to hear more about how they can do that. Sounds like a raw deal.

    The difference is United Power does not allow for third party ownership of the panels They are forcing you to buy them per se, but they are requiring you to purchase them and own them if you choose to get Solar. XCEL does not require that. This is the info I got from Solar City.

    I guess since they are controlling the grid, they have a say as to how power gets added to it. It sounds like that is their way of ensuring that home owners who want solar power have some skin in the game.

    I'm still wondering why there are not disconnection switches in our market yet.
