Switching to Home Solar System was a smart choice!

Soben who installed a home solar system

Soben, 32 years old, and his wife are glad that they’ve installed the home solar system. When LES visited his house they found out some problems related to using a home battery system.

To name a few of the problems, he had to use the battery just to turn one light on at night, carry it to the charging station for recharge, which was expensive, and exchange the battery every year.

The biggest concern was that he couldn’t save any money by using the home battery system. The cost of maintaining the battery system was too much to save up for his children’s education, not to mention the daily costs of food for his family.

While worrying of the costs of home battery system, Soben heard of the home solar system. Learning of the cost efficient and environment friendly effects, Soben eventually made a choice to give up using wood, oil, battery, candles and install the home solar system.

After 20 days of using a 100W system, Soben thanked LES for their service and installed the same system at his parent’s house. After installing the system, Soben turns on the light without any inconvenience, enjoys his free time watching the news, variety shows, and shopping channels on TV.

On top of everything, he’s started to save up for his children’s tuition fee, and his family’s future.  :-)
