I bought 3 of these. They have made them stronger using 8" schedule 80 pipes. The cost of the poles and actuators were higher than a ground mount system but I chose this system based on the following:
1. Cost of hauling dirt and leveling the ground (I live on a hill) to accommodate a ground mount would have cost a lot. This made the cost of the poles comparable with a ground mount.
2. I don't have a large backyard so I needed an efficient system to maximize my power production. My single axis system gives me an average of 30% more than a similar ground mounted system.
3. I had to strategically place the panels in different spots because my house is to the south of these poles. The wife didn't want them in the front yard😏.
4. Excellent customer support. Dennis was a great resource when I was setting them up.
5. The "cool factor".
This is definitely a DIY project. It took me 2 months to finish because I did it in the middle of winter. Backhoe can't set up the poles till it got dry and carrying 50 lb panels on a 30 degree mud hill in 30 degree weather was a challenge.
I have no regrets getting the system. I will most likely add another pole so I can be totally carbon neutral.

Awesome set up and design, love top of pole solar it’s movable and seasonal tilting, and has an attractive appearance
Can’t wait till I set up three of them on my roof

We use a solar tracker by sun and not time. We love the input we get from it. It only uses 4 wires also. Nice setup for a time tracking. I still prefer sun tracking. It only moves a little just as the time tracking does. Either way tracking the sun is the best way to get maximum solar input.

the quality of the work looks very good 👍

another great video, so much we can learn from this channel, thanks again.

This is clever. Up to this point I thought Solar tracker is the best. I have a question though: How the panels are protected against wind? Can a high speed wind turn them or even break them?

My family in the UK have a 6kw dual axis tracker and an 8kw roof mount. I'm not sure if it is timed or tracks the suns light but I know the tracker produces significantly more power despite being smaller.

I like the presentation, and the first to see kind of system . solar time track I want join tutorial

We have re-designed the solar time tracker Poles they are built more heavier with schedule 80 pipe. Go on YouTube and look at Solar Time Tracker. Everyone that buys a solar time tracker cannot believe how heavy the poles are built.. and how well the tracker works. They make maximum power all day long.

This size array would become a sail on my property in northern Colorado

[TRUMPETSPREPPER]

Looks awesome I need 3 in the backyard and the power company could take a hike. lol

[aaadock]

How does that large panel array stand up to wind gusts ? I ask before a storm just came by and blew my panels off my rack.

[kansascountry]

where can I get more info and possibly purchase one?

[ericwillman]

Hey Jeff, thanks again for the video. A request: at some point could you give examples of how electrical utility companies credit or pay for energy--created by wind or solar--that is put back into the grid. Keep up the good work!

[thierryviellard]

Please tell me where I could buy your solar time tracker controller dual axis. Thank you

[larrymoore]

Good information. Easy design and I would definitely like more information.

[jonfortier]

Does it have its own clock RTC or does it get time off of the internet ? where can i buy one of those made in USA linear actuators ? thanks ....

[faronf]

Jeff how would these solar panels or any other quality panel hold up against an average hail storm ?

[nagendran]

First of all nice tracking system. May I have some more information on the patent. It seems interesting and want to read a bit more on that, thanks in advance.

You can also set up the camera a little further
