I'm thinking about building out a larger capacity semi-portable solar generator and have a few things I would like to ask.
I have looked at the new Bluetti AC300, but wanted to see what it would take to roll my own that might be more capable and possibly cheaper.
Looking at using the EG4 batteries and their rack that has rollers, so it will be semi-portable. Thinking of getting the 48v batteries and starting with 1 or 2 in the rack and expanding from there.
Questions:
1: Is there any benefit of going with a 24v battery over the 48v battery? I'm thinking not if I want to expand it to the maximum of 31KWh later.
2: Is there a good MPPT could handle the below.
Thanks.

2: Is there a good MPPT could handle the below.
A: Connecting to grid power and/or generator to charge the battery bank on an ad hoc basis?
B: Handle a large array of solar panels or multiple arrays?
C: Be able to connect to main house panel via a generator interlock or transfer switch?
D: Be able to various devices via a dedicated power strip?
Is there anything else that I'm not considering?Thanks.
