I have the brightmount, saw your video trying to get different anchoring ideas. I honestly never heard of Railroad ties so I looked it up. Google says its a major source of Carpenter Ant Infestations. They love this stuff

[@brentjohnson6654]

Hello, you have Brightmount? How did you anchor yours, if I might ask. All the best from north Texas

[@brentjohnson6654]

New subscriber here. Thanks for the clear step by step that you did and explaining it. I am glad you made it through Beryl (I assume). These types of ground mounts have not appealed to me in north Texas because of the winds, but maybe I will reconsider with many reporting winds up to 100mph that didn’t damage the Brightmounts. I have considered putting down weed fabric like you have and laying down white rock after the fact for the bifacial effect but haven’t analyzed that cost element yet.

[@Grandmashomesteadhaven]

I purchased white weed cloth I am going to lay down to the rear of the solar rack. It is cheaper than white rock and is super fast and easy to install. This would only work if you have bifacial solar panels. I already collect more than I need from my panels right now but I am planning for the winter when we have less daylight hours.

[@brentjohnson6654]

@@Grandmashomesteadhaven excellent. I was just wondering about that today. I plan on mounting bifacial panels when I do. If I want whole house coverage based on my meter usage it is 66kwh/day so that is 35-45 panels. To be honest it sounds sexy to be off grid but I will start slow with less panels and critical loads so I can have power during the next rolling blackout in Texas if it happens. Now back to my usage there are things I can do to reduce the requirement. Anyway I didn’t mean to bore you with my whole story. Have a good one. All the best!

@@Grandmashomesteadhaven thank you. Have put one in my cart.

Spacing between ground mount legs is 51.2, when connecting another ground mount what’s the measurement distance between the first two legs connected to the mount?
