That is admirable Alex.
Whilst I do appreciate having a fridge and air conditioner up at the farm, it is completely off-grid. The battery storage has enough mojo to run a 250amp welder without breaking a sweat. The very same welder killed a 4kW generator stone dead from power draw. At no stage have we felt the inclination to replace the generator or connect to the mains that run across the property.
I also agree with the message implicit in your post; Personal happiness and quality of life are not proportional to energy consumption.
