    Solar system for new RV, planning stage.

    rack mounting can be very helpful. I have about $100 in this rack, it was built in the vegas desert, and it allowed me to put 1000w over my rear AC.

    280ah DIY vs 300ah chins

    Having read you safety post I am fully aware of some of the dangers you showed. I appreciate your perspective on liability. I would never play with pouch cells, thats one reason I stayed away from the LG banks on battery hookups. While I am a novice, I'm not that new. the assembly of a basic...

    280ah DIY vs 300ah chins

    I have not. That being said I have been lightly researching it for over a year, and I am very skilled with my hands. I designed and installed my 2000w solar system with zero experience, and that was easy. It is 2 1000w arrays feeding 200vdc to midnight 250-cp controllers. we have been look...

    2000w solar system less than $1750

    Morning Star PWM vs EPever, Renogy, Rich solar, Make Sky Blue

    since you're pinching pennies you could go with 3 epever 40a mppt's and put 2 panels in series on each controller, provided that the VOC wasn't over the 100v limit. the units without the display is only $135. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=EPEVER+40A+MPPT&i=lawngarden&ref=nb_sb_noss_2
