Hello Everyone.
My wife and I have purchased a water access only cabin. We have been currently getting our electrical needs via gasoline generator when needed.
We are looking to make the switch to solar power.
Our current needs are fairly small. we have been looking at a solar DC fridge, 12v on demand water pump. and we already utilize led bulbs.
Other than that our energy needs are limited to occasional charging of mobile phones, Bluetooth speakers etc.
Its pretty much a complete rebuild on the cabin so we are looking to keep costs low and perhaps expand later if needed.
The fridge stats are approx 565w/24hrs in a 25deg Celsius environment, or 62 watts when operating.
I was thinking of keeping the system costs down for now and utilizing a cheaper all in one perhaps 3000w growatt.
Considering a small panel set up perhaps 4, 24v 330watt.
Battery situation is where i am really stuck.
Considering buying 2 24volt lithium 200ah packs. Is this enough capacity for storage? and will I have enough panels to charge it?
The cabin is located in Kipawa Quebec, its has perfect southern exposure and gets huge amounts of sunshine.
We will be staying at the cabin for no more than 1 week at a time and we have the generator as a backup
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
I have been reading and reading and reading posts, so much my eyes are bugging out.
