That's what I linked to in the post above. I sent them an email about what exact parts list I need to mount one panel. Waiting to hear back. I'm assuming I need 4 mini rails and 4 end clamps. I don't think I need to ground a single panel with just RC-4 connectors going to an all-in-one power...

I think these might work: https://diysolarforum.com/threads/where-can-i-buy-a-solar-panel-rail-mount-or-should-i-just-make-one-out-of-unistruts-for-my-roof.37249/post-592907

I want to put a solar panel on my shed's roof that will keep my Ecoflow River Pro 2 charged up. There's a million roof brackets and racks out there. I have the architectural asphalt shingles and would like some brackets I can install myself that won't leak. I only need a 200 watt panel, the...

I've been piecing together a plan to get power in my shed to keep 2 12v batteries trickle charged, power a LED shop light. Not much demand. 2-4 amps. For how much a pieced together system is going to cost (controller, inverter, wiring, battery, etc) - I can get an Ecoflow delta mini all-in-one...

Okay so my shed is done and I'm ready to buy a solar kit. What's a good system that will be a few hundred watts (2 panels maybe?), an inverter to run my dual battery trickle charger, and a 12 volt light? I have a good amount of roof (12x16 shed) that gets full sun all day long. I'm eyeing...

My follow up question is will a solar charge controller keep 2 separate batteries topped off? seems like it'll overcharge one of them. Maybe dual 20 amp chargers and 2 panels?

My new plan for my shed is to put a roof mounted solar panel on and some type of dual bank trickle charger to keep my 2 tractor batteries topped off. Basically a solar powered battery tender. I'm lost on finding a simple system. I don't want the tiny dash board mounted vehicle ones, and the...

I just had a new idea. If I don't need lights- I don't even need a battery. I can get a solar powered trickle charger and it'll top off the tractor batteries during the day! Now to research those....

The shed will be built by the end of the month. It'll be 16x12 with 4 windows. So now I'm rethinking my project. I don't even think I need lights in there. Just the double bank trickle charger to keep the tractors topped up. One tractor is set for snow so only runs in the winter, the other is...

I'm not finding any dual bank DC-to-DC chargers. My 2 bank battery tender only pulls 2.5 amps max (1.25 per bank). I can't imagine a 4' LED work light pulls much power either. Any math gurus out there can help me size the system? I'm thinking I need: A panel or 2 for the roof Charge...

I'm circling back on this project as the shed just got HOA approval to be built. It will be 12x16 and gets lot of sun from mid day through sunset. I need to trickle charge 2 tractor batteries and power some LED lights. What about a DC only system? I really don't need an inverter, do I? Do...

Please critique my installation and set up that I just finished. Ecoflow delta pro with the protran generator/transfer switch that was "free" for the Father's Day sale. I've installed 4 of these transfer switches now, so I am comfortable with those. First time using a battery though. I added...

Yeah bummer. I'm going to give it a work out before calling to make sure everything else works. I bought this thing based on Will's YouTube videos. I just want a trouble free home back up. Maybe the box works fine, but for $3,300 I was hoping the app would work too.

Brand new delta pro. It's charging up and I got the app sync'd up. It's cycling between the unit and then a quick flash showing 2 extra batteries plugged in? I have nothing plugged in but the AC power cord. I deleted the app, reinstalled, unlinked and relinked the pro and it still shows the...

I'm in brainstorming mode and looking at possibly getting 2 different lithium generators. I'm liking Ecoflow but will cross shop Bluetti as well. Rig- Jeep with an ARB50 qt DC fridge. It's left me stranded before killing the battery even with the voltage cut off. I want to put a lithium...
