    Total Noob wants to run a mini fridge

    Well I would suggest getting a high quality unit preferably something that has an inverter driven compressor To give you an idea my RVs fridge is effectively a 12 volt mini fridge when it's not running on propane it's a peltier That thing will suck anywhere from 400 to 600 Watts and never...

    Yep and most of them come pre-charged All you have to do is connect the lines add electricity and vacuum them down then release the refrigerant

    280Ah cells with low capacity - can I still use them?

    I would set them up as two separate batteries with two separate BMSs... The big advantage to that is that if one of them goes down you can still use your equipment... But you also have twice the available current on tap at any given time

    280Ah cells with low capacity - can I still use them?

    Ultimately what your question is is can you have two packs that are different capacities in parallel I think right? If I'm understanding the question correctly then yes you absolutely can I have one pack that is 1,300 amp hours and another that is 460 amp hours... They're in parallel and they...

    Safely balancing batteries with different SoC

    It's really not that big of a deal... Just attach them in parallel and let them sit for a little bit and they will balance to each other I actually have a 460 amp hour (230ah, 2p4s) in parallel with a 1,216 amp hour (304ah 4p4s) battery... Oftentimes the smaller battery will finished charging...

    Up for sale is a Outback Solar gvfx3524, 3500 watt, 24 volt inverter/charger This unit is tested and does work I attached 24 volts to the input and was able to get 120 volts on the output. Asking $750 but would rather trade it for a EG4 Chargeverter Linn valley, KS. 66040

    outback gvfx3524 inverter charger value?

    I know they say it's designed as a grid tie unit... But just with playing with it I found that it'll power up just fine by applying 24 volts to the input and then you get 120 volts on the output I think it's more similar to a hybrid unit than a true grid tie unit

    Not only would it not have been profitable but I would have lost money on the products

    Unintended consequences of Solar that we see

    I have a lot of people that think I can do it for them for next to nothing... I had one local that lives in an RV... A 50 amp RV with two rooftop air conditioners ask if I could get him up and running... I ran some numbers for him and he was surprised He figured that I could set him up for less...
