Current Setup:
Battery Bank -> Growatt/Transformer -> Main 240V Circuit Panel -> -> 120V Sub Panel -> TT 120V Circuit Panel -> 12V Appliances
While this is probably better, is it worth while?
Battery Bank -> Victron 48V-12V Converter - >12V Appliances
I got the Growatt - 120V - 12V route and it works perfect for a long time. I think it gives more redundancy.
The amount my 12V appliances use is minimal. 100-300wh in a day. Even when you go from 70% efficiency the 48v - 120V - 12V system has to the 90-95% 48V - 12V presumable is doing. That's not much savings, you are saving ONE 1 AH a day or so..
