In order to bypass permitting, I am creating an off-grid system that is detached from my house, but it still needs to be done right.
First my needs: To cover various appliances 100% of the time and never worry about power outages. 4.1kWh/daily. + EG4 overhad(assuming inverter 1.2kWh/daily)
= 5.3kWh/daily
I have been sold on the idea on the new 48v EG4 6.5kW All in one inverter because it is UL certified by TUV. ? Thanks Will P.
I am looking for smaller highly efficient panels that fit on a space of 60"x84" atop my gazebo. I also have about 15 linear feet next to my house I can use. Probably should try to keep the area next to the house to a maximum 36" deep. so... 15'x3' max
Again, my goal is to reach the 5kW/daily total at latitude 42° in Michigan year round. If i need a higher quality panel thats ok. if I need to over panel thats ok too. I wont complain about making 8-10kW/daily on some days. ?
I have been putting off this project since I just moved and am worried about economy and job. But Im starting small, I think, and need to do something.
I had a few companies quote whole home solar, the $32k-$62k after Govt rebates is a bit too rich for me. I would like my first chunk to remain under $5K. BTW, I already have the batteries, (4) 12v 280ah already ready for 4s. So I need the $1300invertor + 200 tax sh. Misc code compliant conduit, fuses, wiring, and misc for another $300.
I figure I have a max of about $3k to spending on panels and shipping that work with the EG4.
I was thinking about (6) 200w BougeRV panels from Amazon because the size is right. Dont know.
