an interesting thing .i was the first person in our neighbourhood to put up an electric fence in 1999 .neighbours driving past allways had something to say if i was outside .( it was more to keep the cats out than anything else ) but now virtually every house has electric fences .

Cats must have become a big problem in your neighbourhood.
 
I have avoided this thread all day.

The only way people mock you for something like this is if you continuously rub it in peoples faces.

Oh hows loadshedding - oh not my problem have solar hahaha that kind of thing. Most people who know me dont even know I have solar, I will mention it if someone is interested otherwise just keep it to myself.

Its a kak thing to rub in peoples faces.

Similar to the vegans who cant not tell ppl they vegan etc.

I totally agree. I don't tell anyone i have solar. If they ask, which is starting to happen a lot lately I tell them yes. If we sit at the braai and the okes start talking solar systems I keep to myself. Might try and give an opinion here and there just to keep them in the right direction but that's it. I can't sit by and listen to how the guy is gonna moer money in the water with a kak system or overpriced or dodgy installer etc.

Not that I am the end-all and know all of solar. Actually, I know fokol but I have a years worth of experience with MY system and I can tell what works and what doesn't. My 2c

But then again it depends on the guy's attitude regarding this moerse system that he plans on installing. Wie is ek nou om op sy battery te pis.

Yeah, that's totally unnecessary, just look down on the peasants and say nothing, they will know.
 
I was referring to line 2 but obviously your top dumb to figure that out.
Oh Sorry let me fix that for you.

Maybe you dont understand how this response works.

I am saying the only way you get mocked is if you rub it in peoples faces, obviously you didnt bother reading the rest of the post as I said most ppl dont even know I have solar - CAUSE I KEEP IT TO MYSELF

So we are back here again top dumb person - This is why people mock you if you rub this in their faces.

Last year when the first wave of stage 6 loadshedding ended in July we had solar installed. All my friends and colleagues full of hopeium mocked me and said well thats the lowest of the lowest eskom would go and that government will intervene. They all believed that loadshedding will be a thing of the past by December 2022.
I had to endure conversations of how I've just spent 200k on a system, wasted a **** ton of money and the usual mock about solar tax that will be introduced on residential homes with solar.

Most of these people drive vehicles worth in excess of over 750k but will not spend 110k or more on a backup system that ultimately reduces eksdom dependance.
They don't even flinch spending 100k extra on a more expensive vehicle that drinks fuel like my Alcoholic Step brother consumes beer.

Some of these "Mockers" even use my study as a mobile office when the power is out.

Anyone on here that had solar installed last year experience the same ?
At least you dont stay in Durban. Where solar theft is quite prevalent
