Is my battery advice helping?

[T1 Terry]

Because I'm on the other side of the globe, I don't really understand how the electrical and solar to grid works in other countries.
So, this is a sort of exploratory poll, to gauge which direction any threads I start and replies give, should be oriented.
Tick any box you feel relates to your view on my posts, it will help me to avoid getting to techo but also to avoid sounding like I'm talking down to people from my podium like a lecturer in a kindergarten class ......
I do have 15 yrs of hands on knowledge regarding off grid systems, I was the designer, installer and fault finder via email and phone for T1 Lithium | Custom-built lithium batteries for RVs and off grid...... and still doing that to a degree.

I know very little about grid tie systems, feed back revenue and personally, I'm pro off grid and cutting ties to the grid, but that is an Aust based and fuel opinion ..... the meter box did burn my house and motorhome to the ground, along with everything we owned, so, maybe a tad biased .......

Adding a question still doesn't really come out as a separate question, will it work ok in this format or should I make separate poll questions?

Love a poll but I'm not sure about repeating the same answers more than once and also what does...

"Do members what DIY info"

mean? Should it be "want" and a question mark on the end?

You can only ask one question per poll.

I've edited it slightly for you.

Thank you, I can see how that could work. After being fried today and it will be worse tomorrow, the brain is not at 100% of the maybe 70% it seems to be functioning at lately

70% Bonus!
I think I'm running on 50, but it's hard to tell.

Not sure what to tick as question 4 seems to be missing...

"Question 4 - Do UK members really want to know how hot is it in Australia right now"?

Converse of that is.
Do Australian members really want to know how cold it is in UK right now?

Still only 5 relies to the first question, 3 to the second question and 2 to the third question ......
Early days yet I guess

The vote numbers are improving, so that's at least heartening .....

Also allows a follow up post

I would never have thought of that Len but it does get it on the "What's New board for a while The more members that at least see it, the more likely they are to vote .....

I find it interesting what can be done DIY elsewhere and what people have done DIY in the UK. I'm unsure what you are allowed to do in the uk with it's over regulation/protectionism to the point where I'm expecting ting that some day I will be required to call an electrician to turn a light on!

To be fair if we have got to the stage that we have to point out to people not to grease their brake discs then it's not a bad idea for some

IMHO, we are less regulated over here than many other countries (e.g. USA and France)... certainly in terms of electrical work.
