Thanks Graham,
As i had sent you my postal address earlier, i keep
watch waiting for the kit to arrive. I have received
many parcels before from Andrius, Ricardo, Asif and
others. While i wait to get the kit, i am assuaring
all that solar power can save minimal expenditures
homes as buying of kerosine for house lighting, phone
charging, radios and all in these parts where we have
plenty of sunshine throughout the year.
I hope every interested person will research first and
work from that line.
Stayed blessed,
Samwel.
