Yeah, i am getting a 12v for my kayak, and thought maybe i can put it into use on those time i dont go out kayaking.
I'll save up for another battery and will go w 2s2p then. I do have a little over 1k array.
Thanks y'all for your comment.
I have two 8.63a Imp and another two 8.35a Imp, planning to parrallel them, so technically my max current can be as high as 34a, right?
most of the 'T' 4 to 1 connector rating is 30a. i saw this one rated for 50a, not sure if i can trust them. but let's say that i do get it and combine the 4...
My true problem is that due to my budget, my 100ah battery pack doesnt last the entire day, but yet, during peak hours, my array produces more and fully charges this pack, so the BMS stops taking charge.
Since i have a couple of 12v but only 20ah (so i cant add them to the 100ah pack) and a...
i currently have 3 lugs stack on each other and tightened up with a nut and bolt, but thought a breaker might be a bit better. but now, it sounds like i would be the only one who would put a breaker on the negative wire lol
thanks for your response
yeah, i agree with all of your assessment.
another question for you, what protection devices do you have for your setup? i see that a lot of people invested in SPD for both AC and DC sides but i also see that many ppl dont have any. Especially for a battery based like yours and mine, i m...
Hello experts!!!
I have 2 12v of the same rating 20ah but they are different brand, each with its own bms, and likely have different 'real' capacity.
can i safely connect them in series to make one 24v? is there anything i should consider?
one bonus newbie question, if my battery already have...
yeah, i kinda know that i will loose some power, but i am trying to keep this project as low cost as possible.
the larger ones are 36V 315w and the smaller ones are 30V 260w. my inverter is capped at 50v i believe. hopefully i can peak at 1kw, hopefully.
btw, on the panel, there is only 'max...
So from what I have been reading, a lot of concern was that the inverter would send a lot more amperage to the house wires which could cause fire.
so my question is, if i was to add an inline GFCI like this one (https://www.amazon.com/GFCI-Inline-Single-Outlet-Cord/dp/B01GSPTUZG) could that...
So, I've just watched Will's video on the Growatt 6000w GTI and liked it, but it is a bit expensive for me and plus, i only have 4 panels which total around 1kw only. i then saw this 3000w one but i couldn't find many videos or many people talk about it either.
anyone here has any experience...
thanks!
i got one a few weeks ago from Amazon. I've been monitoring it with my Emporia Vue, i never saw the wattage being higher than 450w (my array has 2x 260w and 2x 300w).
on a typical day, i get only a little more than 2kwh out of it and i was wondering if it is normal.
