Hi Everyone,
Thanks for reading my post. Hope you can help, shed some `light' on my question.
I'm in the UK, South Wales. My rented house faces south and I'm really keen on getting some solar panels to power a 500W 5000btu portable air conditioning unit.
Batteries are not needed. I work from home and with summer on its way, and my office/studio facing south and receiving all the sun all day, I want to harness the sun to power some A/C.
I've watched a few of Will's videos, that's how I'm here now ?
So, my question. Would the Renogy 100W ( Amazon ) connected to a 1000w inverter be enough to power a 500W A/C unit?
OR, would I have to get more panels? The panels would be attached to the front of the house, or put on some A frames at ground level.
Thanks in advance ??
