    Solarever new 410 watt panel

    Looks like they finally are for sale. Might be a good fit for an inverter that has a low max voltage, but pretty high amps. https://santansolar.com/product/new-solarever-410w-solar-panel/ Maximum Voltage (VMP): 31.35 V Maximum Power Current (IMP): 13.08 A Open Circuit Voltage (VOC): 37.12 V...

    Portable/folding solar panel makers

    Are there any other manufacturers that I should look at besides Renogy, Rich Solar, Bluetti, and Eco Flow? Wanting something that I can take camping and the rigid panels are going to end up way to big (mainly thickness).

    Sanity check please on circuit breaker

    So, I have a Growatt 24v 3000tl lvm inverter (https://watts247.com/product/spf-3000tl-lvm-24p/) and I'm trying to figure out what circuit breaker I would need. I was looking at this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B8BX3P2/ref=twister_B07DF7RSDV as I shouldn't be able to get more than 80amps from...

    Charging battery bank via inverter and battery charger at the same time

    So, I think I saw in one of Will's videos that he was charging a battery bank with both solar via the inverter and a separate battery charger, but can't find the video. Is this possible?

    330w panel with an Imp under 9amps

    Does anyone know if they exist? Been trying to figure a way to max out a MPP Solar 6548 and they are what are recommended, but they appear to be an unicorn.

    AC300 and D300s

    Throwing this in GD as there is just a few hours before the initial sale is over. Does the D300s seem like it would be worth buying for the AC300 to allow for more solar to be easily added to the system as the voltage limit is much higher...

    MPPSolar 6548/PIP8048MAX and general inverter question

    So, I was looking through the user manuals of the 6548 and PIP8048MAX trying to figure out an array design and ran into some things that I can't explain. 1: In both manuals, it suggests to using a 600VDC/30A circuit breaker on each PV connection. Wouldn't this fry the 6548 as it's rated for...

    Solarever new 400w panel

    Has anyone seen this one for sale anywhere yet? https://solareverusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Module-HC-54M-395-405w.pdf They appear to be the perfect panel for the large voltage input inverters. 10 in series would be 370v at 13.6amps which should max out a MPPT (4000w max ones).

    Real life temperature of solar panels

    Does anyone have some real life measurements of ambient vs cell temperature? Trying to figure out if I'm better off with a lower output panel that I can have more of or a higher output panel over a broad range of temperatures (-15F to 105F) without having to reconfigure panels to keep it below...

    Online stores for solar panels - US

    Does anyone have a good list for online retailers for the US? Looking for full size solar panels and not smaller stuff. I've found shop.signaturesolar.us and santansolar.com from Will's videos. Thanks.

    Solar panel under 50v VoC and 8a Isc

    Does anyone know of any? I've found a couple that appear to have been made several years ago, but nothing new (Sunpower E series and an Adani panel). Trying to figure a way to maximize the power going into a new AC300. Thanks.

    AC200P and AC200MAX

    @Will Prowse On your review of the AC200MAX, you said you were using the a battery charger off of the AC outputs on the AC200MAX to charge your 48v battery bank and then using it to charge the external battery packs (B230s). Wouldn't it be more efficient to just use the battery power...

    High input VDC All-in-one inverters

    I've been looking for some high input (over 250VDC) all-in-one inverter and I'm just finding a few from MPP Solar and one from EASun. Are there any others that I should be looking at? Thanks.

    Semi-portable solar generator build

    I'm thinking about building out a larger capacity semi-portable solar generator and have a few things I would like to ask. I have looked at the new Bluetti AC300, but wanted to see what it would take to roll my own that might be more capable and possibly cheaper. Looking at using the EG4...
