Hi. I am in north Florida where we just got blown up by a hurricane. I came though it with no damage, but power was out for several hours. I don't have any means of making power in that situation, so I would like to make a solar generator to cover a fan, some lights and my fridge at least next time that happens.
I have seen lots of Will's and jehu's videos on this subject, however every day there are new ideas and solutions, so I wanna choose fromt he best idea going currently.
I don't want to spend the bucks for a pre-made off the shelf device since I will use it rarely.
Goals:
LiPo for safety, cheap, easy to construct without need of special tools, weather resistant, power output of around 2000 watts continuous, can sit on the shelf for long periods between uses, and ability to last 1 day without sun and charge from 1 to 2 random solar panels that I plan to round up locally once I find them. Maybe 200 - 300 watt for each panel.
Thanks for any tips and suggestions!
