Have no one considered that these would be lifted and shifted by the next weekend when they are installed? Like only reason that solar panels don't get nicked from people's houses is that in most cases you need scaffolding to gain access and someone might notice...

In my hometown you couldn't even leave worthless stuff unattended or someone would steal it or break it. I live in a nice part of the PNW now and there's almost no crime. People leave $7000 bicycles sitting out front of coffee shops unlocked. People leave $150,000 cars with the tops down in parking lots. There's products on display outside of stores with nobody watching or caring about it.
