[quote=Anonymous]Not sure what you’re asking. You can get small portable panels that will power cell phones and such at the camping store. They are not going to run your fridge though. For rooftop panels to work as a backup power source, you need a good battery. When we looked at this about 2 years ago, Tesla was really the only option for that. Whether you can get enough to power enough stuff depends on your location and roof position and also keep in mind that if there are storms you won’t get much sun. We got panels from another company last year and opted to pass on the battery for now as the salesman told us that they are anticipating some tech advancements in battery capacity shortly. I don’t know if he was right about that or not. [/quote]
