A solar installer thinks he hears a gunshot while performing a drone solar site survey. The shot--if it was a shot--came from the ranch house of his ex-fiancé. Can the solar installer’s drone footage solve the gunshot mystery? And even if it does, will anyone believe him?
True Solar Takeaways
- Drones are an increasingly common tool for inspecting and designing residential solar systems.
- A "POI" is an acronym for a drone circling program. It stands for "Point of Interest."
- Solar design software incorporates drone footage and photos. The software then sizes and designs the solar system and a visual sales proposal.
- When preparing a solar design, the installer will gather information about your electric service panel and sometimes inspect your roof's rafters from your attic.
- As mentioned, this episode incorporated characters from a 10-minute play that Tor wrote, called "Harrison's Choice." It's part of an anthology of 10-minute plays that Tor published in 2008 called "Just Give Me 10 Minutes."
