Hey there,
This thread is quite a few years old and is being locked here to avoid further necroposting.
Feel free to create a new thread if there's a subject you're wanting to discuss that doesn't have a more recent topic, thanks!This is still happening for me 6 years after this post. Wind turbines and generators aren’t working either
- @Chazzzy I wasn't asking about the mod. I mentioned in the post the mod is discontinued
My questions were at the bottom of the post:
?1. With the Eco Lifestyle EP will it turn on electricity for everything and then my sims have to pay a bill? Or will there be no bills like with the mod?
2. How many solar panels/wind mills would I have to put down to restore electricity to the entire house? "SimTrippy;c-17533937" wrote:

I read that it also depends on whether the weather is sunny or cloudy. And you need to save the energy they generate so that you can use it at night time.
Honestly, mermaids have never been more powerful than now. ?
I hadn't thought of that! :astonished:
Haha :D I've been playing with a lot of mermaids lately - mostly because, as it turns out, sim-mermaid couples never have normal sim babies, only mermaids (...is that just me)? But funnily enough, I have never used their power to call for clear skies or a good rainstorm more than I do now - but it took me thinking "pff when will it rain again in Sulani" at least 3 times before my brain realized that my mermaids can always make it rain :D
Never knew that, but then I never encountered any mermaids in my game yet. They stay well hidden the little devils, everybody I've asked in Sulani looks at me weird and says it's all folks tales. :lol: If I meet them I'll need to make sure not to invite them to any weddings, just in case. :joy:- My eco-warrior is going to scout for a mermaid-girlfriend ASAP!

I have the Sigma1202 Functional Solar Panels & Water Heater Mod

The mod has been discontinued because of the Eco Lifestyle EP. So, with that mod I was able to restore all of the electricity to my Sims house, to every thing that needed electricity, with 6 solar panels, and also heat the water with 1 water heater. And my sims did not have any bills.
?1. With the Eco Lifestyle EP will it turn on electricity for everything and then my sims have to pay a bill? Or will there be no bills like with the mod?
2. How many solar panels/wind mills would I have to put down to restore electricity to the entire house? - thanks for all the help I am sure I'll get it
