How did you perform your energy audit? I recently installed an Emporia in my main panel and had the same shock for my overall usage. In my case, due to working in IT, I had several pieces of network/server equipment running, which after shutting down freed up nearly 8kW per day My next...

yeah MPPT vs PWM difference is clear for me; the Renogy was purchased before I knew the difference :)

Thanks for the input all. I have a small Renogy controller in the shed (PWM no less) and now wondering how much more power it'd make on a better SCC like Victron I have not read enough on here to know about failure rates on EG4 batteries, but would compare support and warranties among...

Yeah, when all complete, I'd have 3 roof arrays, and possibly a 4th on the ground as well. I did consider lead acid, and priced out a bank of Trojan batteries, but in the end, cost is about the same as with lifepo4 when considering deeper DOD. Leaning towards EG4 or SOK rackmount

I am planning to run a 24v system and yes roof angles are all different direction, so each roof plane would essentially get it's own array/SCC 'low input capture' is the phrasing I was after, thank you. I would imagine voltage comes up quickly in a large array, yes. I have a 100w/12v system...

Hi All, first post here.... Currently iterating over a few solar designs which I plan to implement starting next spring. Plan is to start small/simple with parts decision based on potential upgrade path (leaning heavily towards Victron at this point) The question I've been pondering is: for...
