Hello everyone, So I've successfully wired together my own DIY generator to power various items in a garage as needed. I wanted to take it a step further and buy a 12v 5000watt Giandel inverter and supply 120v to a sub panel to power my workshop in my backyard. Is that possible? I was thinking...

Thanks mike I had the solar charge converter vertical but it wasn’t fitting on my board. Also what size wire and in-line fuse would you recommend?

Since I’ve received which is like 2 weeks. I’ve been going back and forth with ampere and they’re sending a loaner charger to see ic that get the battery over the 13.9 threshold.

Hello Everyone, So I'm having an issue charging my battery over 13.9V. I've programed my solar charge controller to the parameters listed fo the batter per the vendor, there seems to be adequate voltage coming from the panels and I feel confident I've over sized the wire as well to prevent any...

Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if I have a busbar that my positives are attached too, and a negative which my negative wires are attached to am I able to attach the ground wire of the inverter and solar charge controller to the ground of the dc fuse box, as long as the dc fuse box has a...

Hello, If I wanted to put a mini dc circuit in between my 12.8v 200 ah lithium batter and my 2200 watt inverter how would I go about sizing that? Doing the calculations I would need roughly 230amp to protect the inverter but I can only find 63a dc mini breakers? I believe I'm doing the equation...

Hello I'm new at this but If I'm making a DIY solar system, not mounted to an RV am I able to use a negative busbar or would I still need to have a copper rod going into the ground? The array is 200 watts and will be station in my backyard on my shed. The inverter, SSC and wiring would be...

So I have a 400 watt array, 40a mppt SCC, 2200 watt inverter, 1 12V 200ah Lipo Battery. I was going to use a 250A bolton fuse for the positive battery terminal, then a 250A surface circuit connected to the inverter (4g wire), 4g wire to 50amp fuse then 6g wire to SCC and a 100a negative bus bar...

So when you say breaker between the panels and SCC so like waterproof inline fuse sized to protect the SCC from the panels?

Hello All, So I wanted to ask if running a 2200 watt inverter the fuse size calculation I'm getting is 230, but I can only find 250. Would that be safe with a larger wire such 0 gauge? Also when making any kind of updates such as adding panels, or batteries do I unhook the panels from the solar...

Thank you this has been very helpful

lol very well thanks for the input everyone!

Yes it is. So 48v system with the proper inverter should allow to operate smoothly

So a gas dryer would be okay to run on a 12v system with a inverter that met the required watts it needed for the load?

Interesting well thank you for the response. Would upping the voltage of the system to say a 24v inverter make it more possible you think?

Hello Everyone, Is it possible to run a standard washer/dryer on a 12v system if the bank and inverter can support it?

Okay great thats what I figured. So the voltage from the PV array enters the SCC which is connected to the battery bank and will regulate the voltage needed to charge that battery. From that point the 12v battery will be sending DC to the 12v Inverter to be converted to AC?

Great I wasn't concerned about the solar charge controller, but would I have issues charging my 12v lithium battery from a 24v array? I'll be using a 12 volt inverter connected to the battery bank to power my ac appliances as well.

Hello All, So I'm in the process of purchasing all the components needed for a 400w system I plan on building. I want to know if I am able to use 24v solar panels(the solar charge controller can handle the watts and it's under the VOC) to charge a 12v LiPho Battery?
