C'on we are talking about low DC power here.... just don't touch the inverter output (or any other 220V AC live wiring) when it is active but thats some common sense.
P.S.: Of course don't short circuit the panel wiring.... no electroshock but nice sparks and wire melting assured.
not true Modern MPPT controllers take the PV string in series and then actively impedance match to extract maximum power in varying conditions. Even a modest series string can easily develop enough DC voltage to be dangerous. DC becomes dangerous around 40V. Your statement would be true in the old days where everyone just paralleled up their 12V nominal panels, worst that's going to happen with that is a welding burn, but the tech has moved on. |

I can't believe it . I actually figured it out.
I'm mining Grin... its Theymos approved so don't shit on me, okay chaps?
And besides, I need a shiggle and and grin in my old age....
you find a pool? |

Sideways, sideways....
Well... After the btcmillionaire more than successful subject about creating a self sustainable pond in his property... I would like to ask.... Anyone here has fully self-sustainable solar powered property? I have studied a lot about it, but some real life experience from another fellow WO'er would be great.
I think it is already at the point where it is cost efficient (more so considering where I live... SUN all the time!) and I am perfectly capable of doing everything myself and know my shit about buying stuff for way less that its usual price (either second hand or surplus) which will also help reduce the total cost substantially.
The property already has its own waterwell with enough capacity to fill the 125000 litres pool over a couple days. So it is only the power grid what I would like to cut off for a completely self sustainable property. My dream!
Will WO also deliver this time? lol
WO please, I understand that we're not on a 90 degree up course to the moon, but this thread has a reputation to uphold. Somebody respond to the man. What I would say is focus on siting and reducing system complexity. Slickest setup I ever saw was at MCAGCC. They built the array on a South facing slope. The panels were mounted to long pipes that ran down the hill due South. The pipes would rotate to clock the panels, many of these in parallel linked with drive chain. Simplest pointing mechanism I ever saw. |

Don't worry, I have a plan for our little friend. No whitepaper yet but I think those are overkill and cause a lot of unnecessary infighting.  edit: VeeCash! VeeCash! VeeCash! uhhhhhhh that's a straight 8 |

what a community  Will make the $100,000 party all the better  Where is this being hosted anyway? Your mom's house. You, uh, probably don't want to be there. |

Well, they are travelers, I hate those guys. Every summer we have travelers from England driving along the countryside in Sweden trying to "fix a roof" or "Laying asphalt" or some other stuff like that. They do a bad job and ask for excessive payment and and dump their trash everywhere and threaten people who complain. Every summer there are warnings about these guys in the paper. Pikey bastards |

So, how many grins will ever be made?
all of them |

A 'pebble' falling from several kilometers (without any acceleration except for gravity) will kill you I think. At least that's what I remember my calculation of over a decade ago.
Did you account for air drag, or did you only consider gravitational acceleration? At that time it would have lost all of its rotation and probably would be just tumbling with added air drag. A parabolic shoot on the other hand.... But still most probably not deadly... if it was so unfortunate to hit someone in the head/eyes/neck. Which is like an extremely small probability in itself. A hit to the body of person with clothes would probably just bounce (not without some moderate impact pain depending on clothes thickness) and not penetrate. just wrong Fatalities from falling bullets are all too frequent. The classic scenario is middle eastern wedding celebrations where falling lead kills a member of the party. Happens too much. |

Im nowhere on the centralised trustles default pseudo trustlist (2nd layer) my name is mud  I don't know how it exactly works, but I have you in my white trustbox if that is worth anything  yeah, the whole "trust" thing seems very opaque to me I did add FlensGold to my white box as he is the one member that ever had the opportunity to steal from me and didn't. |

A 'pebble' falling from several kilometers (without any acceleration except for gravity) will kill you I think. At least that's what I remember my calculation of over a decade ago. I've seen news articles too of (unintended) casualties from kalashnikovs being fired straight into the air in celebration in the middle east.
yeah, firing into the air around people is attempted assault, stupid and dangerous |

Lol, went looking through really old PMs as there are a couple people I had trustworthy interactions with back in the day. Found this...I am more lucky than I am smart.  |
