    Agreed. It's probably cheaper to move my carcass south for winter though, so that's my solution ;)
    Hard to beat Baja California in winter. I use to love Conception bay and the islands in the Sea.
     Arizona and New Mexico were favorites then but cold at night....

    No way I could go without a generator in winter without massive battery and solar. Can go weeks with little sun from mid-Oct to mid- Dec and sun is too low from then to mid-Jan. Right now sun is around 17 degrees above the horizon, barely clearing a hill to the south. Even if I cleared acres of trees I might get an hour or so of weak sun.


    If you wanna do SOLAR off-grid, then go where the SUN is.  Otherwise just use a generator and call it a day... it's still off-grid and gets the job done... there's whole chucks of the USA and the rest of the world that get 90% sun year-round
