@MLE_online @steter @ai6yr Right now, the only state that allows balcony solar is Utah, but there is legislation moving in multiple states to make it legal. California has a bill in process right now. https://www.ewg.org/news-insights/news-release/2026/01/california-senator-introduces-balcony-solar-bill-lower-energy

@MLE_online @steter @ai6yr Ahh. Yeah, it’ll be difficult to find a setup that will run something directly off of panels without another intermediate source. You’ll either need something like balcony solar (not legal in most places… yet) or a portable battery or something.

@MLE_online @steter @ai6yr The C1000 is often less than $400 on sale, and the larger capacity models are all well less than $1k. The key is if you don’t need portable solar panels, buy a couple of surplus/used panels locally for cheap. You can often get a ~350watt/35v panel for $50.

@MLE_online @steter @ai6yr Check out the Anker Solix units. They work with cheap rooftop panels, output around 2kw, and have between 1-3kwh of capacity, depending on the model. I have the C1000 and it easily runs a toaster oven, kettle, or clothes washer. It’ll run a modern refrigerator for over 6 hours easy.

3.Cameras.and.a.Microphone

Hi! I have been taping shows since 1988. I currently have 3 cameras- Canon HFG10, Canon HFG30, and Canon HF200. I also use a Rode Video Pro Stereo Videomic.. hence the name. I now, it is goofy, but that is kind of who I am anyway. Over the years, my equipment has been: 1988-1992 Aiwa CV-80 (Sony ECM-909 mic 1989-1992) 1992-1999 Sony TR-81 Hi8 camera w/stock mic 1999-2002 Panasonic DV camera w/stock mic 2002-2006: Semi-retirement from taping ;-) 2006-2008: Panasonic ADVC30 w/Shure VP88 mic 2008-2010: Semi retirement 2010-2013: Canon HFM30, HF200, HFG10/30. 2013-2015: Canon HFG10/30/40. 2015-present: Canon HFG10/30/40/gopro I record shows in Sacramento and the bay area primarily, but will travel at times as well. These videos are intended to be free, never sold. Bands, if you ever want to use this footage for any reason, please contact me at [email protected]. It's yours. I am not looking to make money off this, it's merely my hobby.

@ai6yr Pretty sure they’re talking about Dr. Swain, but they shouldn’t lead with “blogger..”
