How difficult is the kit to hook up and what besides the solar panel kit do I need to hook directly up to the grid?
The Suntura Solar Tracker takes one person about 8 hours to install. The majority of the time is spent digging the hole for the 6 in x 8 in wooden post. The installation instructions for the Suntura Solar Tracker can be viewed here: http://www.windynation.com/sites/default/files/Suntura 400 Solar Tracker Owner Rev2.pdf The other main items you would need are (1) a small 12 volt power supply to power the tracker and (2) a UL listed solar grid tie inverter.
