Solar power. My first foray into it.

I was pretty much done researching and about ready to purchase the parts for a solar system here. After a long and hard thought discussion with my son here I’ve decided to put the solar on hold and went ahead and gave a well guy the go ahead to drill a well here. In lots of my posts here I advise others that water is the number one prepping supply to ensure, so I’m taking my own advice. I’m currently on county water, which is a lot cheaper than the well, but not in my control if things go bad. I do have two creeks too, but drinking surface water isn’t as safe, even when filtering. This still fits into solar as I will plan to hook the well to its own panels and inverter system. I looked into a DC motor for the well, but at 400’ deep (average here), the options were pretty limited. The fridge is just taking a lower priority for now. I’m at a pretty good financial point in my life right now but still have to prioritize what kinds of projects that I can afford to do. Damn, if I was only rich.... the possibilities!
