Texan reads his electric bill.

I dunno what this guy is talking about, my bill is zero.

Good prices on panels.
Each day, give or take, I'm disassembling my batteries and 1)installing epoxy plates between the cells, 2)swapping the old JKBMS for the new server rack BMS. So far I've got 5 done and two left to go.

One of the features of the JKBMS is that you can individually enable / disable charge and discharge. So I just connected a pack that is at a higher voltage than the rest. To avoid high current between batteries, I simply disabled discharge from the higher voltage battery. Today as the batteries recharge, the others will catch up with the higher one and all will charge. before sundown tonight, I'll enable discharge on that new one.
Some info for terminology

After our post yesterday, we had someone ask about how we pluck our chickens. Specifically they asked about if we used a drill plucker like the one pictured below.

We process about 400 chickens a year... between my wife and I and our small kids. So, we use a large chicken plucker that I can drop 2 chickens in at a time instead of the drill plucker. It plucks 2 chickens in about 10-12 seconds and the feathers all neatly go out the bottom of the unit. Its made for chickens and ducks so for our bigger birds like turkeys, thats when I revert to the drill plucker instead. However I'm always COVERED in turkey feathers when I use the drill plucker and it takes me about 5-7 minutes per bird using it. When I use the plucking machine for our chickens I dont have to worry about the feathers going everywhere... they go out the bottom into a makeshift collection basket I have (you can see it in the picture). If you're interested in seeing the chicken plucker we use, check out the link below.

These 13 panels are configured as one string into my inverter's three inputs. Total of 39 active panels on the roof. So the sun rises to the north east and causes the cupula to cast a shadow on that right most set of panels. You can see in the yellow production line when that shadow has cleared the panels.
Here we see a ground mount 6kw inverter connected to 20 panels (blue) and two 3kw MPPT dc chargers conencted to 10 panels each (teal and purple).

if you add up the two 3kw power it is 4452w and the 6kw inverter is making 4336w. So close.... all of these devices are fed from the same 370w panels at a 40degree tilt. Just confirmation that every panel in my ground mount is working the same as all the others.
