It comes down to what system you have, all solar panels are the same, they generate DC power in the sun, and send it down the line to the next set of components, for an off grid set up it usually goes, solar controler, this let’s the right amount of watts through to supply current demand and/or charge the batteries, from there depending on the set up either to the battery’s detectly or through the inverter to the battery’s, the inverter takes DC and turns it to AC to run whatever is at the end. For on grid the panels run to an inverter that powers either the current demand or pumps the power being made by the panels to the grid, this is where you can run into trouble if everyone has just on grid setup, if no one’s using power at midday then you have all that power being pumped into the grid and it puts a fair load on things to keep it from poping. There are hybrid systems as well both the panels and grid run to the batteries.

I personally think if each house had a battery system, connected to the grid that also has a battery bank say at every transformer on a pole, I think that would make a pretty good multiple redundancy grid, expensive sure, but how much money does the government already waste. Just my 2 cents

I just don’t agree on that. Surely you heard about the guy who stabbed 6 people to death in a Sydney about 2 months ago, if 1 person can kill 6 people in a huge shopping mall, then the same could easily happen to two people in a house. The reason, like I side before, this guy has gone out to kill, if he’d had a knife he wouldn’t of just stabbed the first person in the arm and stopped, he would of aimed for the chest or throat, the out come would of been the same.

Yes, agree red flags were present, and from my understanding ever raised on the day, with multiple calls to police, which I believe should of be acted upon sooner with the information at hand, but they worked to there guide lines so idk that whole subject could be argued back and forth for months.

Agree you can’t punish someone who hasn’t done anything, yet you want to ban handguns form people who abide by the law?, by that logic we should ban cars should we not?

Is there an outlet vent outside? Check to see that it’s not blocked by something, insect nest, or spider web or something, that’s the only place I can think of that the wind cause possibly get in. If you can get under the house you can see what is going on, maybe a inspection camera? You’d feel it with a drain snake.

No worrys, my first off grid system was panels that 15 years old that I scavenged out of the tip, a mix of old front end loader and truck batteries with collapsed cells, and the cheapest eBay controlers and inverter I could find, and it did the job haha. I looked into using an old gird tie inverter as an off grid one but its pretty wild as they just keep ramping up the volts till it goes somewhere lol Also that battery scheme looks the good, why isn’t there more noise about it?

He was going out to kill, if he didn’t have access to a gun he would of used something else. I’m a gun ower in NSW and I’ve got my own opinions around gun laws, that being said, I think there should be something done to try and stop these terrible things from happening. Maybe yearly psychological assessments or something, but tightening gun restrictions only effect law abiding gun owners, because criminals are just gonna break the law anyway.

Yer it’s wired that it’s only one drain, There could be a jagged edge somewhere down the pipe that could have caught a mass of something that’s slowly rotting away, you can get hand cranked pipe snake there a few metres long, probably 30bucks, might get you outta trouble,
