I need to power my off-grid cabin that I'm about to move into. I know this isn't the most cost-saving design, but i dont even know if it'll work to begin with. Here's what I'm thinking, and please tell me if I'm overlooking anything:
Start with: WEN 56380i Inverter Generator
--> (turning it on for a few hours, running AC output into...)
... the Renogy 60amp battery charger
--> (running that then into a...)
... Renogy 60amp charge controller
--> (which then runs into my...)
... Renogy LiFePO4 battery
--> (which is going to have connected to it a...)
... AiLi Battery Monitor.
Done.
So correct me if I'm wrong please, but this setup will charge one battery in a few hours correct?
Can I charge 2 batteries this way at once?
And, I know that Renogy LiFePO4 are rated for 50amp charge input, but assuming loss, a 60amp charger won't ruin it correct? I've read people getting away with charging 50amp rated batteries with 60amp chargers online.
Thanks again! I'm doing it all different when I can invest in solar later this year.
