yes same type, I expect 80-90 miles (not tested yet) just my opinion, they do 60 without solar, so with solar that's my estimate.

I have few folks getting serious about doing the system, they will be able to say what they get distance wise.

The one that is here goes 20-25 miles and the voltage hardly drops at all and that one does not have solar.

Stop over at LSL Tuesday at 1pm, we will both be there.
