I saw some pics of it, looks good.
I had to concrete in 10 posts, the back ones were all 8ft, except the one furthest up the hill, which was a 6ft'er. After I figured out how much I needed above level, I took a circular saw to even them out. The front 5 posts were obviously shorter, also had to cut them down to level. Used 8ft 4x4's between front and back posts to support the unistruts.
Used 21 50lb bags of quikrete for all ten posts. Did a LOT of mixing the 'crete in a wheelbarrow then lugging it down to the site, usually two bags mixtures at a time. I had all the bags on the truck, so I'd pull a bag to the tailgate, slit it open, dump into wheelbarrow, and slowly add the water. Was a challenge figuring out how much water to add, didn't want it too soupy. Settled for with a thick oatmeal like consistency.
I had designed a tilt feature into my mount using tractor top-links as the adjuster, but was already tired of working on it, I just wanted it built, so I could get the panels put on. We put on the panels about 13 months ago.

Great deal on the CALB cells (about 50 of them?) those are supposedly top of the line. Sounds like you're going to need some more panels and another inverter to charge them up
