hello looking to setup an off grid system for my 37 ft RV. my daily usage is around 1000w-1650w/day. my inverter is a 48v growatt 3000 spf split phase. hooked up to 3 455w solar panels.
i live in canada so they get me about 455w/day.

i don’t really have the space to mount a 48v server rack, just wondering if the bms and led display with software, and closed circuit communication are needed THAT bad. as long
as you have a sufficient bank size. i could also add DIY bms in later

i have the space to wire in 2 24v 100ah lithiums. so just woundering the sacrifice i’m making efficency wise if i don’t go with a server rack.
i assume one big unit is more effiecient than two small ones right?


PS I would prefer to have sufficient battery bank to go at least a full 24hours without needing the panels to charge anything.
 
Internally all the batteries are 3.2v lithium cells. You don't loose much , if any, with two 24v vs one 48v. The additional connectors and wires add a little resistance.
