Snow rake
We had a long winter. Our solar panels were covered with snow for weeks at a time. I finally ordered the pieces to make a snow rake. They arrived a few days ago! …a few days ago after 50+ F temperatures had melted all the snow :-<.

Oh well, at least I’ll have it for next year…

But suddenly (after all, we’re in northern Indiana) the weather changed…inches and inches of snow! So let’s try it out!


The next day they generated 16 kWh. Just over $3 of electricity. It’s a get rich s l o w scheme…

Nice. I used to do that until I took the math one step further and figured out how much per hour my physical exercise earned me.
