I love this idea! I have been kicking around ideas of ground mounting about 10-12 panels for my cabin. I have a sunny spot for a 20' container, just need to figure out the brackets similar to what you have here. Thanks!

I'm in the same situation. Just pulled the trigger on a 6000XP w/ 1 wall mount indoor battery. it'll be in an off-grid cabin and I'm trying to soak up more info to make the process go smoother.

from how I interpret it, as long as your generator is 3kwh or greater it will qualify.

Yea, I'm concerned about snow as well. Brightmount Max (35°) would be my recommended spring/fall angle, I'll check out PV watts and see the difference. Thanks.

I had a similar thought. What if one fabricated a 15° bracket to sit on top of the concrete piers. Then brightmount on the brackets?

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on 2 brightmounts for my off grid cabin in Montana. Optimal winter angle is 50.1°, and brightmount maxes out at 35°. Anyone modify these to get steeper angles?

I'll look into it. Thanks so much for the helpful info. I'm already about to drop some $$$ so that might have to wait!

So, my current generator with an EG4 chargeverter would work?

So, with this set up i would need a generator with 240v output @ at least 60 amps? Thats over 14kw!

I currently own a gas powered 3kw Predator generator (120v 25a output) and am thinking of getting 1 EG4 6000xp inverter and 1 EG4 indoor wallmount battery for my small off grid cabin. Battery manual says recommended charging amps should be 60-160amps. Will this inverter allow this generator to...

Andrew Camarata bought a small chinese excavator a little while ago and put it to work.

Local pick up only in CA. Anyone have good/bad experience buying panels on ebay?

FYI, here is the specs for the 6000EX-48HV from Signature Solar website: High Surge Capacity (12KW for 1 second) , so maybe it would work for his well pump?
