"Well, the system is great! It took a while to get the system installed due to paper work for grant and bank loan. Finally got system up and running on 10/5/16.  The system provides complete energy for our house and business. And we don't have to pay the electric company, in fact they will be paying us for any overflow production. 

If your are interested is installing, you better hurry because the demand is increasing dramatically and the waiting time for installation will take a while.


Brian Brown from Renewable Engineered Systems is our provider. Very easy to work with and they are a local company with a very professional attitude.  His contact phone number is 276-226-0228"

"We first contacted this company, using Angie's List, and established communication 
via the Angie's messaging center.  
The initial contact seemed to go well -- I clearly laid out what our needs were, in this case we
were seeking repair of a strip of five Malibu lights along our driveway which though connected
to the main line of lights which worked, are not turning on in the evening.  
The response from the company was friendly, saying they could help us with this.  An appointment
was set, and on our request, they clarified they do not charge for first assessments.   But
on the day of the appointment, we waited...and waited. . . and waited . . . one hour past 6 PM.  
We chose to leave the company an email noting that they had failed to show up.  The next day, I phoned
their number.  The person on the phone offered no immediate apology for their failure to show up
the previous day.  Only at the end of the conversation did she express any regret.  
With some hesitation, we re-scheduled a visit. On the day of that visit, I received a call from what I
can only assume was their field rep.  He was somewhat abrupt, saying he wanted to clarify that
they don't work on Malibu lighting.  Remember -- in the initial Angie's List messaging, their office
rep had said they could help us with our problem.
In the phone call, the field rep said the company only discusses lights that they can provide (this clearly
messaged that they decline to get involved in minor jobs, reflecting comments by others left in reviews
on Angie's List).  
We decided to maintain the appointment . . .the company rep arrived.  It was clear from the start they he 
had no intention of providing any estimate that would be in what we consider a reasonable range.   As another reviewer noted on Angie's:  "It was clear from the start that the company is really only interested,  though, in dramatic upscale lighting. . . ."
The discussion ended with the field rep, who provided a ballpark verbal estimate of between $2,000 and $2,500, and said 
if that is not in our budget range it wasn't even worth his time writing up an estimate.   And . . . that was that.
But I feel compelled to provide this description, because others have obviously experienced the same.  For the reason
alone of the contradictory information provided, which initially gives the impression to potential customers that this 
company does care about jobs costing less than $2,000, I am providing this information.  Add to that the failure to show 
up on the first appointment, and we would not recommend this company -- unless of course, you are fully able to spend at least $2,000 on lighting.
I recommend to this company, and all others who think they can engage in this kind of activity, that they realize that 
people are really not that stupid.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Upgrading your electrical panel is often worth the cost for safety, improved electrical performance, and potential long-term savings. A primary benefit is preventing electrical fires and other hazards from a malfunctioning panel, ensuring your household's safety. An upgraded panel also provides a steady flow of electricity, eliminating issues like flickering lights and frequently tripped breakers. It allows you to connect additional appliances without overloading the system, which is especially beneficial for older homes with 100-amp service that are prone to overheating. If you run large appliances like central air conditioning, heating systems, hot tubs, or saunas, you might consider upgrading to a 300- or 400-amp service to meet the higher electrical demand. Furthermore, an upgrade can lead to long-term savings on energy bills and potentially lower insurance costs.

Wiring can last anywhere from 50 to 70 years, but all kinds of mishaps can occur that reduce the lifespan of your electrical wiring, including severe weather conditions, pests, and even faulty wiring. Keeping a preventative maintenance scheduling and hiring an electrician for an annual electrical inspection will keep your wiring system around for as long as possible.

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.

Typically, when a 3-way switch only works when one switch is on, this is one of the most telltale indicators that the switch has gone bad (although this could also be the result of faulty or loose wiring). To diagnose the issue, toggle each switch until the light comes on. Once it’s on, toggle each switch separately again; the switch that doesn’t turn the light off is the bad switch. 

If you strictly adhere to electrical safety rules, including assuming that a circuit is hot until proven otherwise, and have some knowledge of how an electrical circuit works, you can likely replace a light switch by yourself without too much trouble. However, it's always advisable to call a nearby electrical pro to do the job if you're unsure of any steps necessary to change a light switch.
