I'm building a large solar system to run a 700watt minisplit a/c in my RV. I've got 1300 watts of solar panels that are 33v 9amp. I'm going to use a 1500 watt 120v inverter to run a fridge and the A/C. My goal is to power the a/c with solar during the peak sun and maybe a few hours at night. I might get a 2000watt inverter generator to top up the batteries on cloudy days. I was leaning towards a 12v system but it just seems too expensive. A 24v interter and 24v battery with a 12v step down for lights seems best.
I can buy 8, 105 ah cells at 500 shipped.
Or I can buy 4, 280 ah cells at 650 shipped or 8 for probably 1100-1200 shipped.
I'm thinking the 24v 105ah pack would be a good start and then I can upgrade later on with another 24v 105ah pack. Should I just bite the bullet and do a 24v 280ah pack?
