6 Mistakes people make when going solar.

1. Underestimating your power consumption incl not understanding your power consumption.
2. Not decreasing your usage first with energy saving solutions - this allows the spend on solar to be less.
3. Unrealistic/unreasonable expectations - understanding the systems limitations.
4. Bad solar panel installations due to improper knowledge or roof space constraints.
5. Taking a deal that is too good to be true - know what you are buying.
6. Buying before defining your load - Patience, do the research. Know what you need or want from a system.
