I'm west of Fayetteville TN, about 50 miles or so from Hohenwald (as the crow flies). My offgrid system consists of a 3000w 48v Growatt Inverter, 18 280w panels, and a 5.12 kw 48v LiFePO4 battery. The output from the Growatt is sufficient to run the types of things you mention above. I run my RV AC as well. You just have to stay below 3 kw total at any one time. The limiting factor in my setup is the battery. My panels generate far more energy than I can store. Once the sun sets I have roughly 3.5 kwh of energy to use until it rises again. (3.5kwh instead of 5kwh because I cycle the battery between 20% and 90% for longevity purposes.) If I had unlimited funds, I'd upgrade to a higher output Growatt, (6kw or higher), and add batteries.Hello new member here. My Family and I are building a home in Tennessee. I'm looking for help in designing and or Installing a solar system, that will give us the same usage we have now. Computers, refrigerator, tv's, all your basic needs!
Thanks in advance, Joe
