My wife, Beth, and I live in the northwest corner of Washington state near the Canadian border in a town called Everson. We are off grid supplementing the dark winter days with grid power. We currently run a 4.8 KW array, soon to be 6.4 KW, managed by 3 (soon to be 4) Xantrex XW MPPT 60-150 controllers. My fascination with solar started when I was an electrician in Colorado. When we moved to Washington, I was given a solar panel (yes, just one) and a small charge controller, and it took off from there. We are looking forward to reading the various posts from everyone.
