Worth it to add a small electric tankless water heater in line after my electric tank type? This way I can use timers to only run the tank heaters during the day when solar is strong and have them set to be off at night and early morning. They (two) come on at least once or twice during the night and then early morning bathroom sink use turns them on again before I have good solar. This seems to be a better solution than adding more batteries. Since they seems to be power hogs, I thought I would run them off my grid AC since they only come on for a very short time. This way I will not have to constantly watch to see what is running so as to avoid an overload of my three inverters. With two inverters I had to be sure the clothes dryer was not running while the oven was on and well pump kicks in at same time water heaters decide to run. Anybody have one and do you like them?
