After a few weeks of researching I think I have a game plan for the solar setup on my bus conversion. But Id like some confirmation before I start putting orders in. I plan to start with this load out and then when I have the money add a minimum of two more batteries(upping to 48v system), double the solar panels and replace the inverter with a 48v one.
4-6x QCELL-315-60BLK Hanwha 315 Watt Solar Panels
2x 300Ah 12v Ampere Time batteries in series
Victron Bluesolar MPPT 150/70-TR with battery temp sensor for low temperature cutoff.
Giandel 4000w Pure Sine Wave 24v Inverter
*missing* 24/48v mains charger - I found the 12/24v charger suggested in the DIY solar blueprints but as I'll be upping to a 48v system eventually what's the best way to accomplish this? Or can I just go through the victron mppt for mains charging with a isolator switch(probably a stupid question)?
*Almost certainly a small diesel generator to pick up any slack since I know the solar setup is under powered for what I want, but its all i have the budget for atm.
I'll have a licensed electrician helping me with the install and setup, and I'll be going through his sources for all the wiring other bits to connect it all. I just need to supply the crucial solar specific items that he doesn't deal with on the regular.
