I would suggest maybe adding some washers to those solar panel brackets for more coverage. I seen a video of someone that lost two panels because they didn't use washers.

Thanks Larry. I need to remove the bolts anyway, so I'll install washers then. Great idea!

Nice job, it gets easier, but you started, and that is what counts, and if you aren't making mistakes, then you aren't doing anything! Nice plate, it's great to have good friends! Wish you well and many miles on the road! RD on the road!

R.D. On The Road, you are so right. A lot of what I'm doing has been dependent on "getting started"! Yes, friends are the best!!

Thanks for the video brother, it was a good one. Forgetting things and having to redo things are part of the journey, so I've been told. Happy early birthday and what a nice gift she gave you. Y'all take care and may Father YHVH bless brother.

I can't find the comment about sealing the bolts in the roof. Thank you for reminding me. I still need to do that.

No worries my friend, Concerning the screws in the roof. I would just get some caulk probably clear waterproof and squirt it over the top of the screws and rub it out over them with my finger to make sure they're fully covered.

Dude. I have to watch the whole video and see nothing but you trying to be a movie star. I thought you were hooking up a solar system? Work on your production skills. It took you 13 minutes to put panels on the roof and never showed how to hook it up.
