the best solar generator
I thought it was longer.Space heating with one of those small plug-in heaters is one the most inefficient ways to use electricity, you would only get 1 to 1-1/2 hours with a a portable back up inverter/battery like a 2kWh Bluetti AC200.
I can't get past the pellet stove in the middle of the room.
You sound like my wife.I can't get past the pellet stove in the middle of the room.
She didn’t say anything about the ladder?You sound like my wife.
Don't let her get away. She speaks wisdom.You sound like my wife.
No that's hers. A project she has going on. Mine is the rocket stove.She didn’t say anything about the ladder?
I haven't found any tiny pellet stoves. I am looking for something more off grid that can use the sun if power is out. That is a good idea though. I am thinking of a Bluetti 2000p I think to accomplish my needs.Heck just install one of those small pellet stoves in each of the rooms, direct vent it and you’re good to go!
There are solar powered heat pump mini splits that run directly off DC panel voltage, only need 2-4 panels to run them.
Downside is limited sun output in the winter moths, you know when it cold out, tough to power you’re heat pump for heat when there is minimal sun output. Much better solution for summer time cooling needs.
Apparently some of you here that use solar power still do not know the importance of keeping their family safe and warm if the power ever goes out in the winter. Not to mention the ridiculous high cost it takes to heat your home on grid. Man up!Don't let her get away. She speaks wisdom.
Do you think the AC200p will provide enough run time for when using electric heater as mention on post #3?I haven't found any tiny pellet stoves.

OK and I would be thinking to have the stove over in the corner maybe where the air duct enters the house. I am over it nowApparently some of you here that use solar power still do not know the importance of keeping their family safe and warm if the power ever goes out in the winter. Not to mention the ridiculous high cost it takes to heat your home on grid. Man up!
Ummm...yes we do. Even in Houston during the 2021 freeze where I powered my furnace to keep the pipes from bursting. I have a 48V inverter connected to the golf cart battery set.Apparently some of you here that use solar power still do not know the importance of keeping their family safe and warm if the power ever goes out in the winter.
I sure do. We have multiple heat sources.Apparently some of you here that use solar power still do not know the importance of keeping their family safe and warm if the power ever goes out in the winter. Not to mention the ridiculous high cost it takes to heat your home on grid. Man up!
Well I don't know. In the winter all our leaves are down so we can get some sun. I would figure it would recharge.Do you think the AC200p will provide enough run time for when using electric heater as mention on post #3?
Why are you more concerned about interior design then functionality?I can't get past the pellet stove in the middle of the room.
thanks, ignore my last reply.OK and I would be thinking to have the stove over in the corner maybe where the air duct enters the house. I am over it now
For backup power I would build a large battery and integrate an inverter into a few branch circuits to keep some basics running for minimal heat, lights, fridge and some communications during an outage. As time and money permit put some solar panels on the roof to give the battery a boost during an outage.
Those solar generators come at a premium price and relative low capacity to really keep an entire house going. I don't think they would serve well unless very short outage duration.
I would power the existing heat systems that burn other fuels long before using electric resistance heat.
