    Well we put her in there today. Electric and plumbing inspections were finished this week, the final final will hopefully be next week. Guys will get their final final finishing work done Monday and get their gear out, right now it’s about 95% of the way there.

    power company should be here Monday working on pulling and connecting out power finally. The guy who fucked up my quote fucked up my neighbors too. Turns out he was fired by eversource and now is fucking up national grid. Guy needs a new line of work.

    anyways, having phase 1 way down towards the river will come in handy!

    relieved to have her in there, been a long stressful project and feel good she will be settled by Christmas.

    No, after getting my local Rep to call the power company a big boss reviewed the plan, the original quote almost 30k, the revised quote was 8k.

    22k off this guy was, or almost 3x actual cost. Thats a felony level attempted robbery/fraud, and thats just a fact. At my neighbors they went to instal his power last week and the guy fucked up the entire drawing and nothing made sense when they showed up and it didn't get done. We both have been waiting for over 6 months, mostly because of this asshole not doing anything that is required of him.

    He really needs to be jailed, I know that's aggressive, but so is trying to steal 22k from me, and who knows how much from others. At the very least he needs to be black balled from any sort of job that has anything to do with money.


    But anyways, instead of a 30-40k solar system, we will get full phase 1 for 8k. Solar might be incorporated in future endeavors, but not right now since the price is now what it should be.

    The power company is here!! It’s really happening!!!!!

    said might not energize until tomorrow, but the work will be done. We are plugged in from the house to the meter, just waiting...

    hard to explain how excited I am for this. Had a handful of ehh news already this week on a variety of fronts so this is a real moral booster for my wife and I

    I think my wife actually just picked some up last week, haven’t tried it. I’m guessing it’s good
