Hello! Excited to find this place. I’m currently wanting to dabble in this world and want to start with a “small” system. Basically I want to see if I can power a home security camera system purely on solar. The system is 8 PoE Cams and an NVR that records everything and works as the PoE switch. When I asked the vendor what sort of power the NVR uses they said 48V / 2A. That seems like a lot but tell me I’m wrong. With the basic math I have learned it seems that’s 96 Watts, so running 24/7 I need a system that can provide 2400 Watt Hours, right? That’s a big system, at least from what I can tell. I need help. Ha!
