Here are my numbers.
I have an 8.06kw solar system. It cost me $13,300 (before incentives)
With the federal incentive for 2020 (26% tax credit) and my state tax credit ($1600) it brings the cost of my system down to $8,243. Remember these are 2020 prices.
Tesla would have charged me $17,000 to install a 7.56kw system in 2020.
Another company bid $21,200 for an 8kw system.
and a fourth company was $21,700 for fully installed 8.68kw
(all those bids are before government incentives)
My energy costs around $0.11 per kWh on average. Using a solar calculator like the one here: I can see that my system will generate about 12,000 kWh per year. Which is about $1,319 worth of energy. So my system will ‘pay itself off’ in about 6.2 years with incentives, and 10 years without the incentives. The best part though, is that over 30 years my panels will generate around $35,000 dollars worth of energy. Far more than what I paid. And they’ll keep on making energy longer than that. Totally worth it.

Jerry: "Easy to install DIY solar panels!"
Me: "I want to do DIY installation, What could go wrong?"
Also me: Installs them backwards so they take power from my home and give it to the sun
My small child loves watching your videos.
He wants to know why you aren’t wearing a harness in this video.
He also selected these emoji: 🧲🧰🪤⚖️🪜
You're an engineer….this is more than a DIY thing…
UTAH
I see a mistake Jerry made. He used a power tool to tighten the lag screws into the flashing. He risks overtighening and deforming the flashing.
I ran them over with my truck by accident and the glass didn't break
it's all fun and games until you have to replace the roof a year later.
English is not my language, but you explain very clearly and with the help of "CC" everything becomes very clear!
Thank you so much!
And then here's me after moving to Australia where we're not even (legally) allowed to re-wire a plug or replace light switches without being a qualified electrician… No, I'm not joking!
ALERT NEVER BUY TESLA JUST LOOK UP REVIEWS I BEG YOU SOLAR CITY/ TESLA SOLAR. READ ANY REVIEWS ITS UNBELIEVABLE HOW EVIL THEY ARE
My brother has them from the previous home owner installed a few years ago (location PA) and the contract is AWFUL. He will be paying well over $500/month for the electricity they produce in 10 years and will progressively get higher for 20 years: they still have to pay the electric company for remaining needed energy. It’s an awful deal he only took on because he bought the home from a retiring elderly couple who couldn’t within reason pay tens of thousands to buy out and opt out of the contract/buy the panels and system. So he helped them. He’ll hurt and there’s nothing they will do for him as they would also do nothing for the previous owners
Musk bought out his cousins solar company which he bought out and branded Tesla; and that company was a scam old people. Musk was already involved in this and has been behaving horribly for a long time relating to deceiving the masses for personal wealth. Please don’t be a sucker.
I really hope you renounce supporting them; always love your content but Elon Musk isn’t brilliant in any good capacity he is insidious and horribly self serving at the expense of many. The epitome of what’s wrong in the world; and what’s worse is he is idolized for it.
I have a question; if someone does an EMP bomb, will it knock out this system?
You are making this look very easy
Thanks Jerry…. You did give us confidence man 💪 great job 👍👍👍
Flat roof…..facing the wrong way 😩… .any ideas? 🤔
I always think ahead….. Replace your shingles first if they are questionable…. 🙃 You don't want to do that after a great job of solar panel installation 😉👌imagine 30 years of good life on them solar panels… Great…. 👍 However in florida roof shingles die ☠ after 18…. 😵
Lol…. This looks TOO EASY!!!! 😜…. ok…. My first issue is all the vent pipes from bathrooms, kitchen and other vents are all in the way 😩….. Now what…. 🙃…. N other thing….. We had 2 hurricanes in 6 weeks here….. How well do these panels handle gust of winds that took my neighbor's carport for a flying ride abut a mile 😵
Please do not walk on your solar panels, as it will create micro cracks and ruin/destroy the solar panel!
I cant believe how poorly US houses are build. This is real lowcost housing.
we paid an imaginable price for solar power,🥲
8:40 Does it matter which wire you connect or disconnect first? The panels are "producing power" sitting in the sun regardless of whether or not they are connected to an inverter. What safety considerations should be kept in mind?
With a 12 volt car, we always disconnect the negative battery terminal from the chassis first, so that any shorts from hot to ground won't arc. Solar panels are also 12, 24, or 48 volt DC systems so wondering if that theory also applies to these twist lock connectors.
Obviously, we will flip the switch to de-energize the system / disconnect it from the home and the grid, prior to servicing or removing or reinstalling any panels.
Do the micro inverters require a "ballanced" install, with the same number of panels on one portion of the micro inverter, as on the other?
Does anything change, when panels are daisy chained together in series before they hit an inverter?
Looks like your shingles are on their last few years and to put new shingles on all this would have to come off so I would reshingle then do solar.
Bro awesome 👏🏼 😊 job with this Installation and tutorial
Fire! Fire!
Thanks for the great video! I have contacted your recommended supplier and it is by far the most econical way to get solar power even after 2 years! The all included servicing companies are double to triple the cost of a diy project and one would never pay that off in time get any savings from it. 👍
Hardest part to do is bring em up there which is just a balancing thing lmao. Usually do 2 to get the job done faster
is it work at night or not
and
how many kwh systems is your
Lots of electrical code violations
How can I power my house without electricity?
can you switch back to your regular source?
They say solar panels are more efficient when they are cool. This is why I've heard not to get the black panels. The rail mounting system also helps keep the panels cooler, which makes them about 10 percent more efficient when they're running cool.
the only thing about roof mounted panels is, its gonna take a hell of a lot of work when you need to replace the shingles. but to be fair they will prob last a lot longer with the panels protecting them so idk lol
❤Awesome !
What was the total cost of the system?
So if you have an attic would you just install the breaker box next to the circuit panel and just run the wires through the attic instead of outside?
Link to solarwholesaler is not working.
Jerry, thank you for your time to share some information. I have a quick question on your solar install. Can message me?
What u gonna do when its time to re roof in 10 years tear that shit off
BRO WTH IS A "HALF INCH SPOCKET" 😂😂😂
What gauge wire is needed from the solar panel box to the electrical box? Is 12 gauge wire good enough? I am asking because I have a shed in the back of the yard that can be used for installing solar panels. It already has electrical running to it with 12 gauge wire. I can use this same wiring to tap into the electrical box. Would this work?
Crazy. I’m going to look more into this. I just had a sales guy quote me $46K for a 11.6kw system on my roof. Crazy difference in price!!!
Thank you for this video. I live in San Francisco area and companies are charging about 35K for a 1500 square foot house. It looks like these companies are making a killing on installation. I do all of my own electrical work. I did not know hooking up the solar panels to the electrical box was so easy to do. Or am missing something? I'm trying to figure out why the solar companies are charging up to 25K to 30K just for installation when installing solar is literally slightly more difficult than putting together some lego blocks then hooking a up a few wires.
One day, Im gonna have enough money to do this, and build myself an off grid cabin in the mountains with full electricity and water supply. Even gonna build a fallout bunker. One day… I hope one day…
Just curious about how effective are those
When they expire do they go to the landfill? That is a no one is really talking enough about.
At 16:20 you talk about the environmental impact. Yes, they are made sort of "green", but "green" recycling is another thing. Millions and millions and millions, no billions of panels will be used as landfill in the next coming years. Same goes for all those sh*tty windmills….. Solar panels green? No way! I've got some panels, but I do not have the illusion that I'm helping Mother Earth by using them. I try to cut down on my electical bill. Saving the environment? Use no electricity at all…. I know, that's no option 🙂 So, solar panels are NEVER helping the environment!
