I have decided there must be a reason more Americans are not "off-grid' depending solely on solar input. It Is for lack of a solution to prevent too many inductive loads from switching on at the same time. Lead-acid battery technology has been here for a century with little improvement. The periodic table provides few options for development of batteries, comprised of materials abundant and available.

We do not trust government and industry to correct the on-going environmental disaster of America. Simply, we lack consumer power to articulate change demanded by a worldly consensus of common sense.

Lacking a device to prevent over-loading, America refuses to allow technology to undermine the power of an industry that made a choice nearly a century ago, and began crusading for legislation to protect its interests. The new technology is here, but is expensive, regulated, and lacking a vital component to prevent over-loading.
