    Building an emergency power system with used panels

    The ecoflow ran the AC fine. It was cycling between 450-50 volts, so if you set a temp that only requires compressor 50% of the time you could get 7 hours or so

    Building my first off-grid 24v system LV2424

    Are others charging from 48v batteries into solar inputs? Would you need anything between the battery and the solar input? And how would you charge the 48v battery back up in an off-grid situation? Separate charge controller?

    Building an emergency power system with used panels

    I have the ecoflow on order, I will be testing it to see what it can handle and if it can't do it I will likely return it, but after that I will know exactly how much power the AC requires overnight, when you account for cycling

    Milk Crate system with 400 watts

    Newbie here, I have two 100-watt panels now and plan to buy two more some time in the future. I'd like to do a combination of Will's 400 watt classic and the smaller milk crate system.

    New Harbor Freight 100w Monocrystalline Panel
