On the subject of ‘cracks” - re: #60 Killgore Trout

Even with the subsidies (30% tax credit) it still doesn’t make financial sense.

FWIW I did it about 6 years ago.

My numbers made sense because my place was all electric and I was remodeling it and the cost of running gas into the kitchen was something I factored in. So as part of a complete remodel, it made sense to chuck the gas and simply stay all electric and get a new, high amperage cook top.

Another thing I factored into the numbers was inflation - I assumed that SDG&E would continue to ask for and get rate increases, which they have. My sunk cost remains the same so I a have a hedge of sorts against inflation.

Lastly, I am now off grid with the flip of a switch. Too bad I am not Glenn Beck or I could boast about my ability to outlast each of the four horsemen and cope with the imminent end times. But at least my house is lit and my servers run when there is a power outage or a wildfire.
