    Temporarily off grid inverter

    Midnight solar thing looks good, so that plus 24v of batteries plus the panels and that’s all I need? What’s batteries should I be looking at considering I won’t be using them long term, 2 12v golf cart batteries?

    Temporarily off grid inverter

    yes the secure power is what I’m trying to use, would be great because I’m buying all this stuff anyway and would save me from paying for a temp power setup or running a generator, I’m in the desert so should have plenty of power to charge my tools batteries all day

    Temporarily off grid inverter

    I’m building a new house and getting solar for it, rather than get a temporary power setup I’d like to use the solar to charge my makita batteries, and occasionally use a generator if Im running an air compressor. I’d rather not buy another inverter charger and use the main grid tie inverter...
