    I remember a while back the NJ2AS was trying to get a large group to apply for permits to carry and see what happens. The idea was that most if not all would be denied at that could be the basis for a lawsuit. Don't know what ever became of it.

     

    I do wonder how many people actually got so far as being in front of a judge. From what I understand, most of us, myself included, don't want to risk being denied and never even apply. I know many PDs talk people out of applying.

    I wish my system performed like the others mentioned. I attribute its poor performance to the orientation. When I first got my system SRECs were selling for $650+ now they are much less. My ROI went from a few years to well over 10. Don't take this the wrong way, I'm 100% for solar just make sure you have good orientation and squirrel proofing.

     

    As was also stated, the power grid acts as your battery bank. Most of the grid in NJ is very reliable making a battery system a waste of money. Get a generator for emergencies.

    I'm not a fan of solar in NJ.

    Apparently, you are not allowed to store the energy your panels produce (battery bank and inverters) in this state.

    I have been thinking of a solar/mini wind turbine with battery storage at the ranch, however.

    Being able to store the power you produce makes it worthwhile to me.

    Are you sure about that? I did a lot of research before my installation and never came across that. Generally speaking, it isn't worth it to have a battery storage system here.

    I just got two P2Ps with relative ease. Filled out paperwork, made an appointment with local PD, handed in paperwork and fees, filled out online background check and paid fee ($10?), got permits back in less than 30 days. My only gripes are the whole process is redundant, by the time I got the permits they were already a few days old, all these background checks and still can't carry.

    Actually he said this: Yes, I realize what I have said here. I'd love to have a custom exhaust made for my portable generator so I could pump the exhaust out of my garage. I'm not going to because of the risk of fire and such. Maybe when I build my shed I will.  Which says to me he is running it in the garage without any exhaust mechanism.  Actually very little CO in the house from range, dryer or water heater as they all have dedicated vents to the outside.

    Most ranges are not vented as they give off little to no CO when working properly. Range vents (if you have one) are for venting smoke/fumes generated from the food not the combustion of natural gas or propane.
