Hello, you seem to be missing the point. Not saying it's for everyone. For me, it's not just about saving money, it was about finding the most cost effective solution for providing emergency backup power.

Heh, looks like @solominer did a monthly solar update too! Great minds think alike!

Looks like you just barely edged me out this month, Our Solar produced 883 kWh in December. I also posted the last 6 months (as much as I had for annual) stats here, along with the monthly stats. I'm also

Thanks, it is satisfying to see for sure. Definitely an added benefit. I can only imagine how this will improve the planet as the technology improves even more over the next decade and even more people

Raining this morning, but definitely getting out and about this afternoon. Probably not for wildlife pics though maybe some others.

Nice shots and great timing to catch that fisherbird! Very motivating for me to get my gear out there and catch some shots like this.

Looks like great fun, and nice job flying that drone for your first time!

Wow. That is such an amazing location. I would love to snatch that up, put a roof on a couple of those buildings and call it home! Awesome you get to visit there!

Very cool. Thanks for posting the pics and detailed info. I've thought about building a custom drone, or getting one of these little tiny ones to play with for a long time. Maybe after Santa day.

Back in Colorado, we lived next door to an old farmers airport. Even though it hadn't been used in a decade, it was still on the maps. One of the benefits of getting the Part 107 UAV license, and with

Agree the state parks would be ideal and of course safer than flying over crowds of people in the city. I've heard people complain about the buzzing noise if they are low and close, but really? Even if

Yes, similar laws here, but as with most there are workarounds. While they can restrict your right to take off and land in the park, they do not control the airspace above it. I took off from private land

Yes, I did give fair warning about their addictive quality!

Hah, not.

Right? This area is seldom crowded even when it's warmer. It's why we like it. Away from the touristy spots, and I guess the locals are just used to it and don't visit it as much anymore.

Thanks, it was a great time shooting it!

Yes, it was a great day to be out. I did a lot of additional flying not on the camera. First time in a long time that I had to put in a second battery!

Well, one would have to be foolish to think that other countries (or aliens) aren't flying there above us spying like we do their countries as well.

Well I'm going to start calling them that, maybe I can start a trend over here.

It's amazing how far the technology has come. Even that little Baton Turbo is much brighter than the lunchbox size 12volt battery things we used to lug around. And the drones? If they are drones, the Karen's
