Hi all i was looking for some input as to how i should go about powering my 3000watt inverter charger from renogy i dont really need the full 3000watt but i got a good deal (new second hand ). I dont want to spend 2000-3000 aud on prebuilt batterys and was looking for suggestions about a diy...
Sorry if wrong thread im just not 100 percent if they're are any warning signs at first sight the labels all sem intact on the photos but ?♂️ see link below...
Yeah i figured that that would be the case, i found a link to a excel spreadsheet that can total all my loads and show me what i need to use and where so i might have a look into that. Honestly biggest load would be an induction cook top so im foing to look into its power needs and design around...
Yeah definetly some surging like you stated, for the short term im most likely going to use some cheap cranking batteries to deal with the surges and theyll have enough amp hours to run my fridge while i think of a battery design to deal with the surge power.
Its a shame capacitors cant be used in parallel to the battery bank to supply short pulses of power in situations like this... or can they hmmm. Just food for thought
