By the way did some research on the batteries above this is what I found out from a review of the batteries by another person. There comments below. - Sirius Force/Think Out buy the batteries in bulk from AliBaba.com suppliers in China. - They ask the Chinese supplier to put LiFePo4 35AH in a...

Thanks very much for that information, much appreciated. Been out of range, sorry for late reply. I’ve actually purchased the Victron Blue Solar MPPT 100/50 (link below). Recommended by electrician nephew. Looking at the specs it says it’s max PV open circuit voltage is 100v ☹️but states that...

Thanks that’s tremendously helpful. Much appreciated. I’d be confident in 4 hours full sun across the arc sky available. Some trees and a hill are shade creaters. Rooky question. Is that 960 w of solar panels in series or parallel?

I was I was thinking of using two 12v 140 amp hr lithium batteries in series.

Hi. I haven’t bought anything yet. Trying to work out exactly that. I don’t have to use all the panels and because there second hand I’m thinking they won’t be putting out as much as they once did. Do you know how many of these panels I would use for 40amp controller as selected above?

Hi I’ve been given these panels. See attached pic. If you would be so kind I would like advice on building a system with some or all of them. I live in Australia -31.06, 152.84. I have 8 of them second hand. Yet to test them. I want to power a fridge. I’ve got a freeer I’ve changes the...

Sorry I don't know what that penalty means. Yes I am in Australia. My kitchen fridge is 50hz. The one in the garage must be as you point out just cant get to it at the moment. Typical garage full of crap. J

Oh. Wasn’t aware of the AC motor issue. Been running a small bar fridge off it ok. I thought the modified inverters had improved lately. The fridge/freezer is a Westinghouse RJ340M (727 kWh/year). Not sure of Hz? I have a upright freezer Palsonic PAL180FZ (362kWh/year). I did read somewhere...

Hi I’ve got a bush shed and just starting in solar. I would like to run a fridge of solar my old gas one gave up on me. I’ve been given 8 190w panels and have a 1500w modified sine wave inverter. I would like advice on where to put my money to finish the project. First use the 240v fridge...
