I think I found the difference between NEC ampacity and ABYC that Blue Sea uses. The NEC charts are based on "Not More Than Three...

I would not do that. Is this a grid tied system? If so, does can this new inverter "communicate" with the current to set phases and...

I don't see any reason to replace the EPEVER if its working, and I am a big fan of Victron. I can see getting the Victron to feed 300...

Hmmm, maybe I need to rethink my recommendation of the Blue Sea circuit wizard. My issue is the NEC standards for 4/0 mean my 4/0 wire...

The RV converter you have already may or may not charge your battery for those days. If its a constant voltage 13.6 like most RVs seem...

Will there always be enough sun? If yes, no charger needed. If a few trips prove you wrong, change the converter to a lithium...

I use a nut bolt thread gauge and see which one will fit https://www.amazon.com/Stainlesstown-Bolt-Screw-Thread-Gauge/dp/B00XUU0UMK/

That is math, and looks like it is a little more than 4 miles per kWh, you may need to pull twice that to charge it. That does not take...

Some voltage drop is normal. Looks like you do have thick wire. A couple of tenths is about 3% and 1.2 volts is around 10%. The...

If your wire is rated for 150 amps, fine. A 100 amp would be better IMO. That would blow around 3 seconds at 280 amps. You don’t...

So for your 2 gauge recommendation, what wire type for 175 amps? Mostly looking for insulation rating and ampacity of the wire. Chart...

Really depends on how many amps your inverter is rated for and then divide that by three is you want the battery to be shared on three...

Do you have any 12 volt load to hook directly to the converter and remove the other 12 volt loads? Appears you have a 70 amp 24 volt to...

I just purchased parts to build an 24 v 8s 50ah pack, same watt hours as that battery, for twice the price.

Yep I agree, so I checked. Googling Temu and going to Temu.com, the battery is there at the correct price

I would install overcurrent protection in the form of a class t fuse as close to the battery as possible. Do you know of that is a pure...

I would check the site prior to ordering. I used to get scams through Facebook with deals from websites created that day or the day...

I’d like to add solarreviews.com to the list, To be added. The company needs to be in business for 5 years.

For planning prior to tax rebate: -5 kw of panels installed $10k -each ac draws 4 kw when running. This could be as low as 2.5 kw...

They were #2 on my list last year to do my install. I’m glad there was another installer I preferred locally. At the time, sun power...
