  • That’s certainly one way to read it. Except you don’t know anything else about me. The problem isn’t the interest in other identities. The problem is the complete clusterfuck of identities presented in that headline. Each additional descriptor narrows down the field of people it’s talking about until you end up with n=1. It’s so incredibly niche that most people, including myself, can’t even picture what must be going on in the heads of these people. Maybe if there was a poster child that would help. But it would take a 30 minute podcast interview to delve into all of those aspects and help it all make sense. Just trying to square the religion plus anarchy section makes the brain hurt. And then we get more niche after that.


  • My DIY is normally “build it from scratch” instead of “buy a thing that does it for you.”

    The way you have it listed they are all “inverters”. But an inverter is only one component of a solar system. In fact it’s not even part of a DC only system. Most of what you have are complete systems minus the solar panels. Way more than an inverter.







  • It is a useful tool for figuring out needs based on what’s going to be running. But it seems too DIBuy instead of DIY. The results say inverters but they are all plug and play all in one systems. Not DIY.

    Now I understand that popping prebuilt systems in the results is easier than building a DB of the constantly changing variety of batteries, inverters and charge controllers. But right now it seems all buy and no build.
