Running solar panels to a garden office shed - worth it or overkill?
I've been pondering this myself for a similar setup in my van conversion, so keen to hear what others think. Really depends on your actual power requirements, doesn't it?

If money were no object — dream off-grid setup?
Fair points from @ExChippie94 and @RetiredElectrician, but I'd actually push back slightly on the "overkill" angle.

System design check — am I making a mistake?
@EdHamilton — quick question before you pull the trigger: have you actually logged your consumption over a full month yet?

Running a PC, monitors and router off solar
Have you calculated your actual power draw? Gaming PCs can spike to 300-400W easily, and dual 27" monitors add another 80-120W depending on brightness and panel type.
