ABS in Fairbanks. Buy a few and they will give you a pretty good deal.
Hurry before the tariffs kick in and cause price increase.

Go slow! Your way up north. I'm sure your electric rates are high, but solar panels aren't that great if you ask me. I have about 8400 bucks of solar panels on my roof. That 8400 would have payed for an awful lot of years of electricity here in Fbks.
I know you will get lots of power in the summer, but won't get much out of them after Sept. I bet. Probably late march before they kick back in. There is a store on Airport Way that sells and installs them, at least here in Fbks.

It’s for a cabin. And we get a lot more sun than you would think in the winter time. Don’t worry I’m getting me a windmill or 2 also for those dark days

Pop couldn't keep ours going in Southwest, birds liked to fight it or something, lots of broken blades and dead birds. Maybe it'll be different up your way.


Rumors of my assimilation have been greatly exaggerated.
