[@spazzattack1188]

I think I reported all of them. I just hope that KZbin removes the comments and suspends the account. Fellow viewers, lets do our part and keep reporting these scammers.

[@ThisOffGridLife]

@@spazzattack1188 thanks! We reported a bunch too, but wow there are a lot!

[@shannonbeyers9765]

Oh...why do people have to go and try to ruin a good thing. I will keep watching and commenting every Blues Moon to impersonators or the real Greg and Katie.

That was easy for me to figure out that’s why I didn’t respond to it.

We all knew it wasn’t y’all! No worries, but everybody needs 2 report this! Great vid, guys! U have helped me tremendously on my solar decisions! Thanx 4 the link! 👌👍

Man! I love you guys! It's like watching two best friends struggling together to accomplish whatever needs to be done, no matter what. It's awesome😀😀!

[@cdy1537]

As someone who is going to be going down the DIY solar pathway soon I appreciate this video .

[@Off-Grid]

15.3kW system in our home, 48V as well. Hasn't let us down yet and energy prices have gone up since the install. Glad we did it. Videos of the system on our channel.

[@FarmsVilla]

I see what you did there. 🤣🤣

[@barrywhitlock141]

Katie you were doing so well digging that cable up. then Greg had to come and show off,but I am happy for you having power in your home

[@ThisOffGridLife]

😂

[@niknoks6387]

We have a 5.6 kw of solar panels on our house, 6kw inverter and 4.6 kw Battery, it’s helping us out a lot with rising energy costs in the UK. We are connected to the grid for both gas and electric, we sell back the power we can’t use to the the grid. The last 2 months our every costs have been less than £15 a month.

Beautiful pup

[@ulfholt6434]

I love watching the way the two of you are working together! Great stuff, as always

[@ROAMING-ROOTS]

Glad to see a couple doing offgrid like me and my wife not many younger couples do this. I do it in a skoolie stationary threw winter and travel in the summer when the kiddo is not in school we live in chamaunt bay NY water front property a retired doc lets us stay for free i met when i rented a house before i moved into a skoolie. But i wish i had a small cabin here also for my family so i could travel and ice fish for back up foods if im not having much luck in chamaunt bay which is very rare since i live water front i fish alot and atleast i can always catch perch back to back when i get them traveling threw my holes. Glad to see a couple that lives happy off grid like me and my wife and kiddo. Since moving off grid his grades have gotten crazy good getting away from social media he has become his own man and figured out who he wants to be as a person instead of kids getting confused on social media with grownups confusing them on what is proper brain decision making because social media is poisoning our kids and taking that out of my kids life he went from worst kid in class to top of his class and being asked to tutor other kids at age 7. Leap frog is his only tablet then good anime for his age when he watches tv.

[@bennym1956]

Congrats on the power ! Sweet lil puppy !

[@shannonbeyers9765]

Little Juniper is so darn cute! I find myself looking for her in the background of your videos. Keep up the hard work Greg and Katie.

[@Ayzee5363]

I have pretty much same unit (Not the same brand but they are all made by VoltronicPower in china and is sold under different brand names). My unit is 5.2KW and has been running non-stop for the last 3 years trouble free. Had to take it down once for cleaning but apart from that, its been quite reliable. Congrats for setting this up.

[@cjmcay]

Have you connected a generator to it? Can it be connected? If so, how do designate polarity?

[@Ayzee5363]

​@@cjmcay I haven't connected generator but i have it connected to the grid supply. The line, neutral and ground are clearly market at the connection points so it shouldn't be hard.

[@cjmcay]

@@Ayzee5363 Thanks for the quick response! My solar guy told me the generator has a magnetic coil and won't be compatible? He said it will FRY my inverter? BTW: WOW, as for getting that 200 pound battery bank out at one time!

[@OffgridwithJayandJen]

Look at that.....You NOW have a separate solar Shed, Gotta love it.

[@carolfaberpeake857]

So excited for you two!! Congratulations and enjoy power in the house!! 🎉

[@canuckyank82]

I had a 9.9 kw system for my house on the ocean but sold that house and never recouped the initial expenditure. You are doing it right in my book. Start small and manageable then grow as you need to. Nice yard of fowls in that pen. Glad you had success!

[@berndlorber9265]

Congratulation both of you,you are doing a fantastic job on you're house and you will see when everything is installed with lights,and water and heat that living is getting more relaxed and confy. You are such an inspiration for lots of young people( couples). Blessing to you both.

Sweet! I have two of those SunGold 6500 units sitting in the boxes. I will be setting them up in a couple weeks on my off-grid property. Will be paired up with about 8KW of bifacial panels and 2 Trophy 48V 100AH batteries. I am looking forward to getting it all setup.

[@ThisOffGridLife]

Nice setup!

[@blaxtarr]

@@ThisOffGridLife you guys and several other channels inspired me to continue my off grid journey after losing my wife. It was our dream.

[@FarmsVilla]

@@blaxtarr good on you! 👍🏻 I’m over 60 and we are off grid now. By accident more than design really but it’s the best decision we ever made. I think you are going to need more batteries for your system. 😊👍🏻

[@VinceBadovinatz88]

@@blaxtarr sorry about your loss

[@VinceBadovinatz88]

@Farm Villa I'm off grid by accident also. They cut off all power to the yard I store all my equipment at and actually live there. I'm just single so I don't need a lot but I'm doing this Sun gold 6500 with three server rack batteries everything's coming in very soon and I'm going to have about 3000 Watts worth of solar panel maybe a second string also. Trying to figure out my wire size at the moment. I think they're sending me four gauge wire but I might need bigger. I know on my 12-volt system I have 1/0

[@JayCollins2013]

[@drjcwardjr]

⚡️⚡️…a real upgrade and it is a critical game changer! 😎👍

[@AlAndValOffGrid]

We just installed a dual EG 6500 EX system for 240 split phase for the house we're building. We bought 2 EG4 Powerlife batteries so we've got a 13kw system with 11kwh storage. Found some CanadianSolar 445 Watt bifacial panels from SanTan Solar in Arizona and got a dozen of those. Now we've got to clear the top of a hill for our solar array. It's a lot of work, but worth it when you can generate all the power you need for yourself.

[@ThisOffGridLife]

It will be amazing when it's all hooked up

[@maximecasavant734]

Congradulation you two,well deserved ,love yeah & enjoy you also with your effers,

I know I’m commenting a lot. Enjoying watching the struggle. 😁 Suggestion, try sliding a pole through the straps on a load like those batteries. Makes it easier to walk with it. Cracked me up on digging up the old power line. Reminds me of my wife and I. “So not fair!” comment has come up often around here. 😅

You'll get a much better price for the exact same inverter design (same design, same parts, same warranty) by purchasing a Sigineer Power Off Grid 48V 6500 all in one inverter charger. Both Sungold Power and Sigineer Power are made by the same manufacturer, but the Sigineer Power inverter cost's far less.
