ThinSkin writes "After an interesting article on solar power installation for the home, Loyd Case at ExtremeTech has written up a follow-up after a month (almost) completely off the grid. Posting an $11.34 electric bill (roughly 3% of the previous month), Loyd shares his experiences using solar power and how it can be fun for the geek — with computer monitoring services and power generation data. Of course, solar power isn't all fun and games given the amount of required maintenance — even unpredictable maintenance like wiping off accumulated ash from fires in Northern California."
