minus-squareNaz@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up5·7 months agoHaha, thanks for taking my comment with humor and stride. Yeah, you’re right. I still think having too much energy is a good problem to have overall. I do microsolar and when my batteries are full (rare), I just unplug them. The solar panels just sit baking in the sun, and then cool off at night.
