So glad I got those solar panels, and an ev when Sleepy Joe was in charge. And I’m in a town small enough for most of my errands to be by bicycle. People are already having an affordability crisis, so this will hit them in the pocket, and they’ll blame trumpy, who quite obviously is the sleepy one. Every tiny lever against the current administration, every one, counts, and we should keep pulling those levers.
The newish one, newer than that article, can take 6k of input panels with it built in solar. If you go with that smart panel, it seamlessly integrates with your house. 15k for the battery + panel + install, 2-3k for the panels if you DIY the install, which will just be climbing on the roofs, drilling racks, and running an electrical cable to the battery pack.
It likely wont power your whole house, but 6k is a good start. You can also double up on the controller and install 12k of panels if you want, so on and so forth.
My brother dragged his heels, too. Our Mom passed, and that’s how there was enough money to take that step. She wanted us to do it, heck it’s something I’ve wanted since early childhood. So it goes.

Really regretting putting off that panel installation.
You can DIY relativlty inexpensivly, at least until it gets to the electrical interconnect.
Im eyeballing a home battery pack from ecoflow:
