I'm looking to test my system with the EG4 3kw inverter and battery. The AOI inverter has a startup voltage of 42 vdc and idle consumption of 50 watts (which I'm guessing is 50 watts at 48 volts for 1 amp). But it also says it has an MPPT range that starts at 120 vdc so I guess it will turn on at 42 but won't charge until 120.
The hard part is finding panels with a high voltage that is near the wattage (small high voltage panels). I was wondering if anyone had some ideas or recommendations for a small/cheap set of solar panels to meet these reqs?
I was looking at these: https://smile.amazon.com/Newpowa-Monocrystalline-Designed-Charge-System/dp/B08QM8F2J2
I could get 5 30 watt and make 150 watts at 120 volts but that's like 250 dollars for a test. Any ideas for something cheaper? I would like to test before ordering a larger number of large panels but haven't been able to find anything good at lowes, home depot, or amazon.
