Greetings!
I am remodeling my Class A RV to include completely re-doing the coach electrical.
I would like to switch to a 24V system instead of going back to the 12V that it was originally.
What are the steps involved?
I will be installing solar with my remodel.
I would like to build...
Greetings,
After a lot of research into the advantages & disadvantages of using Nickel Iron batteries, I've decided they would fit my needs well.
A neighbor near me has had Nickel Iron batteries for quite a few years & they are working very well for him. He highly recommends them even over...
Ah, I missed your reference to it being propane.
Since I do not want any more devices that operate with propane, I'm sticking to electric only water heaters.
Yes. I will get the whole setup to include an inverter so I can run AC appliances.
I also will still want to power some DC items too, so I am thinking I'll need a converter to go from 24V to 12V?
Can I use the same solar panels for a 24V as I would have for 12V system?
The 240VAC - is that...
I am about to start with my sand battery experiment.
I plan on using it as a simple heat exchanger by blowing the heated air through metal pipe(s) into a room. Dimensions of the build will be 4x8x4 to start, bigger if needed.
I've decided to bury standard stove-top heating elements like the...
I've been interested in making my own sand battery for winter heating. I would use a medium sized approach - not as big as the video's and not as small as a bucket. I'm thinking of the equivalent of a 2500 gallon water storage tank.
What would be a simple way to make solar resistive heating...
To be fair, Hobotech has given bad reviews. He has stated on multiple instances he would not recommend products.
He and other content creators are barraged with products to sell on a daily basis. Folks like him have an audience who want reviews of the various products out there related to the...
Now that the weather has started to warm up, I am getting out & gutting the RV more often.
If you are intetested in seeing the open floor remodel, I have started to make regular videos. Here is the first one.
Thanks for your input!
I am in a very rural area with lots of free sand on my property.
I am not interested in the water version, only the sand version.
After tons of research including much advice from here, I have decided this is the route I am going! The gentleman in this video has used his minisplit sucessfully for a year now in his medium / large sized RV. It can be done with proper preparation and selection of systems.
I will have to...
Greetings!
Just ran across this article. It is about how researchers have been improving the Sodium Sulfur battery technology. They point to improved carbon electrodes making them 4 times better.
Sodium sulfur batteries have been around for a while. Has anyone used them before?
Is this...
Hello all! I now have two 48V - 9.6kWh LG Powerwall Systems from BigBattery. I am going to put them into parallel for some nice storage!
I will use these with the new 6048 Inverter System from MPP.
I am brand new to 48V systems as this will be my first install into my RV. I understand that...
1. I'm not sure. I heard there were 3 different charge rates. Using a standard 110V plug in charger would take days-I don't want that. I would like to be able to fully charge in a day or less. Not sure how many kwh/ day that would take.
2. Again, not sure. I have two LV 6048 6000w inverters I...
The concerns expressed had to do with proper phasing in that the 208/230V minisplit is made for overseas applications rather than how a typical 2 phase 120/240V American system is set up.
I do not understand what is being referred to with that explanation since European systems run on 50Hz...
