VERY bad idea posting the email address publicly
I feel like such a newbie that I'm going to just ask for help from Will or one of you other solar geniuses!! To finish this project.. I seem to just get more and more confused the more I study it. I'm older thank I thought! LOL. I have started to obtain parts for my SHF off grid system. I have bought now,,
1 ea victron MPPT 100V 50 A 12/24 v charge controller. 1 ea Victron Energy BMV smart monitor. 1 ea Gandel 4000 watt heavy duty pure sign wave inverter. 18 Siemens SR100 watt solar panels. They all match and were just pulled from a guys system that got upgraded so all were in use until then. I'm having trouble pulling the trigger on Battery's. I'm thinking of one of these 2 options but cant seem to keep it straight in my old head and having trouble pulling the trigger. Ether 4 ea signature solar EG4-Lifepower4 Lithium battery 24V 200 ah at about 6K OR 4 or 6 ea. EnjoyBot 12 V 300 ah Lifepo4 deep cycle at about 4k and 6 k respectively. I think both will work, not sure if all is compatible. Just not sure enough to pull the trigger. My daily use could be as big as 5208 wh? 12v think? I would like to keep going on this but cant afford a big $ mistake at this point. Please let me know what you think and a direction that will fill my goal and use the parts I've bought already. As I said its off grid, SHF system, built then to store un used (after its built I'm likely going to dissemble it and store in my basement for use in my basement, just in case its needed!) I realize I will need to run cords and or wire, and I can load shed my frigs with timers to prevent running at the same time. and I have that also. HELP! Thanks for any help!!
