Yeah this would be a direct solar connection with a shut off. Of some of the wire I have looked at which is rated for about 5 watts at 48v (which I think that all the wires are the same, yet I could be wrong?) Yet they require short is runs. Which means that I would need to have a lot of...

Yes that would work. You can google more about in floor electric heating. I was reading a thread from uk maybe where they just install wire cable and use AC to heat up the loop. The resisient of the wire dictates how much energy it will consume. The person who was writing about it or another...

Our electric prices used to be 11 cents per kwh and now they are around 17 cents due to rising costs. Really depends on how you build solar and how you use it for a ROI. Example: Solar panels degrade over time so if you think you need 1 unit of solar then you add 2 or 3 units of solar. This...

Bruce did you ever come up with anything? Clearly some people can not read which is why they all keep pushing these "other' Ideas. For those who did not read. The house is going to be empty most of the time and this solar to in floor heating is going to be used to keep the house mostly warm...

Bias maybe. yet you do bring up one point that this unit is going to be those who do not care if they drop 50k and then pay a monthly service fee or a fee to have someone come out and take care of it while they forget they even have the system only to find out they are paying more out of pocket...

I agree with that. Power walls have problems that a custom stacked system does not. If one power inverter fails on a large system you can just pull that one and run at reduced loads till its replaced. Which is why a small room in a house/garage/basement is ideal for server racks. Power walls...

i understand what a power wall is. A power wall is the same as an all in one inverter which has its own batteries. They take up far more wall space for a large system. To have bigger systems you need more power walls which require more wall space. Tell me there is a powerwall that has 100kwh...

Powerwalls are very limited in what they can do and take up so much wall space. Racks are far better and can scale up. If they custom build the racks so that everything is just plug and play it would make for building out racks quick and easy. Racks can hold batteries and all in one inverters...

I seen will mount one on the server rack once before. Why cant they just make a server rack all in one inverter. I would rather have the cabinet full of all of that gear and then have 2 connection points one for the solar plug and one for the AC in and out power and the last to connect other...

right that is how they would work when in parallel. When you have a single unit and only solar hooked up 6kw of solar and no battery and no grid you can only run loads that peak to just under the amount of incoming solar. So for example a mini split which lets just say peaks at 2kw on start up...

With a battery and parallel they work right? On solar only/battery less they will work provided that the peak is not more than the solar incoming right?

I am not sure how people are testing. Standby is just power on and no inverter. When the inverter is turned on it will likely draw more power. Standby is desgined just to keep the battery charged and that requires enough power which I am guessing is the 29 to 36 watts. Once the inverter is on I...

Though it has been proven to work over and over. There are people here who have tested it and there are also other videos that have shown them working. Provided the loads are less than 6kw. To run parallel one needs to be able to buffer the loads either by a small battery bank or if testing...

Yeah that goal here is to be able to have a totally off grid system that does not cost a lot of money. This all in one allows you to use solar along with the grid which is fine when we have the grid. I want to run parallel yet I do not want to spend a huge amount of money on a battery system...

So pretty much a battery with say around 500 watts would charge in moments once the sun starts to rise. Then as the sun comes up more the loads can be applied based on incoming watts, Well there really will not be incoming watts because nothing will be charging. So one would just have to turn on...
