Panels are not the first decision.
Just like you wouldn't buy a large tank of gasoline.
Before you decide if you're going to buy a gasoline or diesel tractor.
surely the amount of power you need would equate to shat amount of panels you have, which would tell you what inverter you'd need?
i mean i cant choose a 5kw inverter and then wanna run 30kw panels later on right ?
i was on here on the other forums about my power needs and was informed that id need 16kwh solar panels, to get through winter, and in summer this will run overpowered, so id need alot less even 8kwh would over do it, but come winter id need 16kwh and stil run my genny,
so surely if i was gona run 16kwh panels, thats the ballgame to start with as it tells me i need 2 inverters of 8kwh ? thats what i got on the other thread on here, guy mailed me n we talked for agis about it, as he was in similar boat but currently doing it
batteries , cant store or keep as well as panels and inverters, they can die and fuckup if i am not connecting them up , i do not want Lithium as i have had nothing but problems with them there expensive and u only fuck them up 1nce n there gone, so i will be using deep leads, like many do and seem to on videos, ive even seen a guy mixing lithium and deep cells wether it was 2 seperate kits or not, i dont know but feels like here im getting blocked?
google says ''The first is the size of the inverter.
Choose an inverter that handles solar panel output but avoids energy waste.''
so obviosuly i need to choose my solar kwh first before i decide inverter type, i didnt say i only wanted to buy panels, i said panels and inverters,
but to buy the inverter i need to know what power i am gona be using, thats 16kwh, total, but figured getting 12kwh would do and i coudl add later as was suggested last month, plenty seem to add to their system when they dont get enough so why cant i?
so
''
How do I match my solar panels to my inverter?
The inverter watt capacity is equal to solar array size.
This is the most common way of thinking about solar inversion, and it's pretty straightforward. If you have a 3000 watt inverter, you connect it to a 3000 watt solar array.''
so i want a 16kwh system so id need 2 8kwh inverters correct ?
then online says batteries can be added if more are needed with a bit of wiring so i am confused how this cant be left to last ?
i dont think gasoline is an equal comparison, and to be honest we did do that, we ordered a tank of red delivered knowing we was getting the tractor as we got it cheap on a deal, the dude pulled outa trade and i ended up gettin a different tractor, but i had the fuel ready to burn, so i did do that which is why i cant see your example fitting, gas is a battery full of power, or a tank fulll of gas, they will only deliver what solar panel you put in (engine) then that converts in transmition, to howmuch power can be delivered
i can guy a tank of gass (battery with power) endless but i can only use it as fast as my panels (engine) will go,
no matter howmuch fuel i own a nissan micra will not beat a ferrari, i first need a big engine(pannels) and matching transmission (inverter) i can get the gas and tank (power and batteries) later and borrow the gas(electric) or buy it as i need to get it up and running,
now that makes more sense,
i cant workout why 1 part of this form i am told to select what power i need (i use 12-15 kwh ) they did all workings out on my location ans said 12kwh upto 16kwh would do, so id need matching inverter batteries i can do later
i plan on using batteries lead deep cycle not lithium,
what i have seen and like the look of is somthing like this, now i am probly wrong and got wrogn batteries here, but aslogn as it aint LI i dont care,
but i dont see how i cant buy that later on as it seems the part fragile to dieing if left, also as its not a very tehnicle its a battery?
where as the solar i wil be sat with for years using to drive any power to my batteries, which coudl be changed if they die or whatever alot seem to mix n match a few too,

if i am wrong correct me , im not being arsy i am baffled and being shot around allover, i started this because every company wanted and toldme different things, numbers prices, somuch someone here said there lying and taking me for a ride, so i wanted to make it myself, i feel liek im given road blocks for nothing i just wana put my money down where its safe, im not moving for 6months were saving, so i am and have bough timber/toilets/ sinks everythign read to go n set down, my last thing i neeed is Power! thats all i wana do, my power, and all i know is on here i was tol i am to use 16kwh, ( when cold n cloudy i have gassifiers, whihc to be honest almost do my needs anyway, my river so i have river power, and my 3 generators. biodigest genny and my petrol and lpg genny ) but i want to rely on solar ! if its inverters first i dont care ill buy it, but the bloody sites are confusing and full of models and competeing markets, so i dont wana blindly buy what i find to get told again ''hey thats not as good as this one''

ps. so its a scc charge controller, ye isnt that gona be chose after the inverter ? liek the lil bits u put together seems liek the last items ?
