Fix or Figure Out

Dirty Grid is built around practical systems that have to work away from ordinary infrastructure. The site documents learning, testing, mistakes, repairs and the version that finally works.

Fix or Figure Out

Field experience belongs in the lesson.

A clean textbook answer is useful. So is the ugly real-world detail that the connector froze, the BMS refused to cooperate, the generator ran all night, or the panel string behaved differently in January than it did in July.

Dirty Grid keeps both. Established engineering gets separated from manufacturer-specific behaviour, field experience and recommendation.
