I've got a thermostat controlled fan that blows out if the inside temp gets over 90F. It's my safety net.

I misunderstood you. I told you what I was running to cool my inverters. My house is cooled with a 4 ton unit.

I'm running a 10000 btu 120vac AC. Needs to be a little bigger. I want to put a 15000+ 240vac unit.

Just finished adding 2 more batteries and starting the deep cycle process.

This post is golden! Nothing more humbling then your system kicking your teeth in a few times. Take your licks and keep learning.

I am running into issue with having solar. The control board in my AC/Furnace is bad. I think is was bad when the home was delivered. The tech told me today that my solar voided my warranty "because of unstable voltages and the control board is sensitive" what a load of crap. I unloaded on my...

Just got a quote from Alabama power. 100K for overhead 28K for underground. I'm about to put another 8 K in my solar. Should be less then 20K total on all of my equipment.

I love my 245' well now that is some great water. Did not like the cost.
