Doesn't seem to be much data on Mini splits on campers and it is very difficult to calculate anything because of the nature of these units. Current use varies due to variable speed drives ambient temp etc.
So here are the measurements I made todayI have 2 100Ah 12V AGM Deep Cycle Batterys attached to 4 190 watt panels on a 25 ft motor home. Finally hooked it up today and ran it for a couple of hours.
Amp draw was between 7 and 10 amps DC at 12.6 volts, the voltage stayed fairly constant for the duration of the test.These batteries power a 2000 watt inverter this has no load attached to it other than the mini split .I suspect someone a lot better at math than me will be able to project run time etc however for me just getting everything to work is a major accomplishment .
It was 80 degrees today and partly cloudy / mostly sunny. I have no idea how much the solar was adding to the batteries but I would imagine it was break even at best.
The mini split is a 9,000 btu unit and I am running it on the dry mode, This seemed to keep the camper comfortable so that is what we will use when dry camping.
I had some left over parts so I assembled a solar generator, this has 4ea 100 Ah batteries that were sourced used from a phone company, 1 ea 190 watt panel, a Pwm controller and a 2,000 /4,000 watt inverter that I doubt would be able to produce more than 750 watts continuous.
In the near future I will hook this up to my furnace and induction cooker in case of a power outage. I tried charging a small electric car with it and it did work for a short while however things started getting fairly warm so that was was about a 15 minute test.
