Re: Solar Battery Setup is draining faster and faster
260w panels may not work well in parallel charging a 24v bank, especially in warm/hot weather. You may be a bit underpanelled for an 800ah bank to begin with, and too-low input voltage may be making …1 · -
Re: Watts in to watts out
There's no simple answer, but @Photowhit numbers are likely in the ballpark. With lithiums, you'll need to produces ~2kwh - ish pv output for 1.5kwh AC usage. Lots of assumptions in that estimate tho…1 · -
Re: High voltage dc disconnect
If you only open it once, at night, it should work fine.1 · -
Re: So riddle me this! CC, battery charging vs's actual PV outputs
The "7k" array might produce about 75% of STC rating, so say 5kw. 5kw ÷58v charging = ~ 85a. A bit light for a 1700ah bank in a full time off-grid application. No matter how you slice it wi…1 · -
Re: Tariff on Chinese panels........
"Go out and break things" works great in business, international relations, I'm not so sure. I guess we're going to find out.2 ·
