Hi Chris I went with true value solar and I installed the 4.5 kilowatt system. I have 16 panels on the roof . My house is a large 30+square home. We use a lot of power specially with 3 kids. We made the decision that if we were going to invest money in a solar system we weren't going to go the small system. Our line of thinking wax that if you are going to invest in a solar panels then get the biggest system you can afford (or that rebates allow for) so that you don't have to pay any bills. Also with 3 kids it's pretty hard to be chasing them around all the time getting them to turn things off.
We still try to be energy conscious but with a system like ours if I want to leave my Telly and computer on all day and my kids playing with their nintendos etc I don't have to worry. We generally don't but I don't have to be miserly with my power usage. Besides as my kids grow they'll only use more power. By the way I haven't paid a bill in the 8months I've had the system.
