yea diy is the way: check Will Prowse on Youtube. He is the go to for diy solar and battery storage

You can't get any of the stuff Will uses in Canada unfortunately, nobody will ship it here. We have overly strict regulations on importing bare lithium cells.
i would kinda get that. since buying batteries from unknown sources could imply a risk hazard. but what about panels and inverters ? those should easily be shipped from ebay or aliexpress. Phone/electronic parts are usually shipped from asia, idk what the exception for solar for.
Well that's nice but the vast majority of stuff he does is small-scale and there's very little in the way of installation instruction. Mostly just product reviews.
