Here it is only 12 volt so I am somewhat envious of a 48 vlt system. I have looked into upgrading to 48 vlts but you may as well put aside $30k or maybe $500k to get on the grid.
I put in four new 300 watt panels recently but there is only a 1100 amp battery bank... I put put 500 amp hours in a shed that was going to be my observatory and home sort of thing...and should get ready for outlaying for a new battery bank..next time up it to 2000 amp hours.
But its all pie in the sky until I get out of Sydney...My Dad is down there and I cant abandon him so terrible to say I have to wait until he moves on which the way he if going wont be for another decade...he is a champion...and I dont mind ..in fact he is a good mate... his short term memory is off but so is mind to a degree but otherwise really on the ball.
And a complication yesterday the property that I really want to buy has come up..100 acres river front.. so I hope I can at least get rid of one.
But it would be perfect, darker than either of the others and has grid power and a really nice shed that would convert to an observatory easily.
Anyways nice to hear about your plans and as I said really look forward to hearing about the mount when in use...I really think it will be a ripper.
Tenterfield and Drake... some of my best stories are of events in each of those towns.
As to marketing I think so many have no idea.
If I had conduct of selling that mount it would be on my site, I would be at every star party with one maybe more and well I would be posting images here for a start showing results.
I wish you well with your move everything you have described seems ideal.
