Wanted to see what everyone thought about this setup for an off-grid cabin we have:
(8) Costco golf cart batteries
(4) Trina 300 watt Mono 60 Cell Solar Panels, 2 in series, 2 in parallel - specs here: Trina 300 watt
Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 100v 50 amp Charge Controller
Giandel 24v Pure Sine Wave 3,000 Watt Inverter
This setup gives 5,376 usable watts of power from the batteries at 50%. The setup will be used to power a 1/2 HP Well Pump (roughly 1,150 watts per day) along with roughly 1,800 watts of power for the rest of the house (high-end estimate). The cabin is in Colorado, where we average over 5.5 sun hours per day.
Would you change anything with this setup or do you see any reason to bump up the inverter to 4,000 watts?
Appreciate any thoughts or opinions!
