I have been living off-grid for about six months. Usually there is no shortage of electricity here. My solar array produces between six and 10 kilowatt hours per day most days. With consumption in the 5-6 range, I generally end up with full batteries at the end of the day.

What I find particularly interesting is how I budget power without thinking about it. It's a lot like when you realize you drive a stick-shift car but never think about shifting or, in my case, just start talking in Spanish because the other person started talking in Spanish.
