Adding a can of crab to garlic and oil pasta makes me feel all fancy even though it’s no extra work.

Trying to determine what's needed to convert solar panels to off grid for home power if the grid were to go down.

Batteries are the biggest thing

I'm not trying to be self sufficient but would like to draw enough from the panels to keep a freezer or 2, maybe a couple lights or boil a little water.

You also have to be able to isolate your system from the grid.

Right, I'm aware of that, like if you run a generator you isolate from the grid.

I’d say that’s a long time to be a jackass…but @VegasFrank has proven it can be done even longer.
