George -

Anyone with DIY skills could put this together.  Not much to it. I could

This looks like a very reasonable estimate of costs for the solar-powered charging station..There is a reasonable chance that we'll be requesting additional funds from this Dupont CITF grant program so your information can till be used. What I had in mind was the additional cost of paying you for your  labor.
