Hello everyone!
I made a post the other day on Reddit about some electrical questions and a few people suggested to me to make a system without an inverter. At first, I thought this to be a bad idea, as it would pigeonhole me into a configuration with only (12V) DC capability, but now I can see some benefits.
To give greater context, this is what my system looks like - (if you see anything wrong with this, please highlight it to me). It contains a 12V 200Ah LiFePO4, with a 2000W inverter, 400W solar power capacity, an option for alternator charging.
In the box on the right, I have listed some other items that I would need to be charged. For the ones that are highlighted in red, I want to know if there are methods to charging these strictly DC? Would I need to go out and purchase new adapters for them? For instance a laptop, would it be more efficient for it to go strictly DC or is the standard AC charger that it comes with better?
So, to anyone that has gone with a system that does not include an inverter, please share why and if you like the system or if you wish you had an inverter.
Thanks!!
