I currently have 13 (1300w) mono panels feeding 3 40A MTTP CC's, 8 100Ah lead acid deep[ cycle RV 12 batteries in Parallel, and a 12v/3000w PSW Inverter. When the sun is shining, the CC's put out a combined 85amps. All of that is connected to a 10-circuit 30amp manual transfer switch that is capable of feeding 10 circuits in the house, all 120Vac. We live in the woods, in old growth timber, and we only have sun solidly on the panels for about 4hrs this time of year in Feb. That equates to + or - 4.7Kwhr per day.
I am interested in changing to either 24v or 48v battery configuration. And, because I will need to get a new inverter and possibly charge controllers for either configuration, I think I will go with a 4000w PSW inverter. With a 30a transfer switch, i want to be able to deliver the 3600w max. Probably will never run full bore all the time. But my 3000w will not handle max.
Any recommendations for trade off with 24v or 48v system? 100w panels vs 320w panels. wifi enabled system monitor.
