Jennifer: I am glad your system is working out well for you.
I have a neighbor that is off the grid too. He not only has the solar panels but also a small wind generator. He has a well also. His main heat is an outdoor boiler system.
My hat is off to you and others that can make this work for your electric needs.
I am not able to make do with that amount of electric. We use much more and it is an added expense each month. So your ahead of me on this.

Both of those types are throwing too many made up numbers for you to be able fairly judge how they work or don't work.
