[QUOTE="jrusling, post: 2582649, member: 10401"] A decent solar system will cost a lot more than an AK. Be careful of cheap solar cells from China, they have had problems with the failing in less than 5 years. Then you need a good charge controller, combiner box with DC rated breakers, master disconnect, batteries, good inverter. This will probably run close to $5K, unless you can find some good used ones. You can save quite a bit if you build a vented battery box and use regular lead acid deep cycle batteries, other wise you will need to get AGM or gell batteries. I have a small solar system on my shop that has 4 140 watt panels and a 2 KW sine wave inverter. If you are in the OKC area and want to see it drop me a PM. [/QUOTE]
