Ordered the bulk of components for my Promaster conversion this week. How did I do, what am I missing?
I selected most of my components based on what I have learned from watching and reading online, specifically from Will. This will be my first solar build and I am anxious to get started, once things start showing up over the next few weeks.
3 x 327w 48v SunPower panels (used) - $300 plus $150 shipping (Santan Solar)
50 ft 12 Gauge Temco Solar Wire - $20 (Amazon)
5 pair MC4 connectors, Pair 3 to 1 MC4 Branch Connectors w/ tool - $18 (Amazon)
Roof Cable Entry Gland - $7 (Ebay)
LV2424 2400w Hybrid Solar Inverter - $600 (USA MPP Solar)
8 x 3.2v 200ah CATL LiFePo4 cells (24v200ah) - $900 (Deligreen on Alibaba)
7-16s 100a Smart BMS w/ Bluetooth - $70 (Ebay)
24v to 12v 40a Step Down Converter - $26 (Ebay)
12 way 12v Fuse Box with Negative - $20 (Amazon)
Sill need:
Roof Rack to mount solar panels
Battery to Inverter Cables - Not sure on length/gauge needed yet
Battery to Inverter Fuse - 100a, 120a, 150a?
Battery Box - ??? - Will probably try to build one or find a box that has close to right dimensions once I build the battery.
