    Need help with panel selection for EB150 from these 4 available.

    It sounds like a good idea. Just not sure how I could use it. The manual says you can only add battery power to it for the eb150 and charge from a 12v vehicle cigarette lighter outlet. The manual says for the ac200/p you can add more solar. I can't find anybody or videos showing someone trying...

    Need help with panel selection for EB150 from these 4 available.

    Well I know I want to over panel to at least 600w so if and when I get that AC200p I'll be set. The plan is to run 2 in parallel. I was considering 2 of those sunpower panels for 690w at 68.2 VOC and 12.04A but since the mppt would lower it to 10a I'd be ok but I think the VOC is too high, so my...

    Need help with panel selection for EB150 from these 4 available.

    Just an update-I still can't find a AC200P renew model that can be shipped to the US via Aliexpress. So I'll have to get this EB150 for now to immediately help with some of the electricity costs in my RV. I'm still in the solar panel selection phase and I've updated my solar panel options to the...

    Need help with panel selection for EB150 from these 4 available.

    yes, now that I have checked the specs of the AC200p and confirmed that the issues are now resolved with them, for the money that for sure seems like the best budget buy right now. Unfortunately yes they are sold out. I should have got one when they were in. For now yes, I check about 20 times a...

    Need help with panel selection for EB150 from these 4 available.

    Ok, well if those particular devices you mentioned are too high demand despite being under the max rated wattage via killawatt meter then I'll just not use them with the EB150 and problem solved. The EB150 is just going to be used supplementally as I'm still on shore power and will always be...

    Are those DIY solar blueprints the same as the one on will’s site? Those are awesome, I also like the EXPLORIST life blueprints. All those schematics are great for simple clear cut builds. The goal of the system initially would be to enter the RV solar system market at the lowest entry cost...

    That sounds like a good size system, 4k watts. I had imagined I’d build a 2k watt one and that it would be plenty but I can see I was wrong. I’d heard around 700-800AH is pretty nice but I can see how that can get expensive real quick. I was thinking eventually one day going 24V for wiring...
