Power Tolerance                  0-3%
Voltage (vmp)                      28.0 V
Current (Imp)                         4.3 A
Open circuit voltage (Voc)     33.6 V
Short circiut current (Isc)       4.3 A

    How many solar panels do you have?

    If you have one panel, I would suggest roughly 100-200 AmpHour @ 12 vdc as a starting point. And a ~300 Watt AC inverter.

    What are your loads and how many hours per day do you want to run them? Weekend use? Full time off grid? Near what major city do you want to run the system?
