Sounds like you are a responsible electricity consumer 800kwh is a good number for grid tied! We are at about 450kwh. The girl in the posted video used 2400kwh In a month!
I am not necessarily off grid by choice…I am far enough away that it made more sense to go off grid than pay the USFS $15k for a purple spotted frog ecological impact study to drop a power pole over 50 ft of USFS property. Then we had another few miles to drop poles, on our dime. Total cost was about $45k. I just told them to shove it and went off grid. We don’t regret it.
Oh and congrats on 1000 posts! Now on to 10000.
