Skip had the good fortune to meet the owner of Solar Stik in St. Augustine just before we launched. Solar Stik was not on the retail market at that time, however, MISTRESS ended up with two customized Solar Stiks and 2 - 85 watt panels. 95% of all the power we use is made using this solar panel arrangement.
