Yeah I agree. I had to get solar panels to keep the electrical charges at a reasonable amount. Without the solar panels, my electric bill was well over $500 per month in the summer months. I know others that I talk to while waiting for the train to take us to work, they also installed solar panels for the same reason. With the solar panels, my electric bill runs about $10/month. Since I also generate extra, I also get a refund. Currently they owe me $200.
Instead of FIXING their equipment, their solution is to shut the power off. I also heard that where I used to live in Southern CA, Edison was going to do the same - shut the power off. I still feel that most of these fires are started by either illegals or homeless at a campsite. Since living here in CA all my life, I don't recall this fires being an issue 25 years ago.
