Thank you for the help , appreciate it. I'll stick with 12v , I already bought 1/0 wire for battery to inverter and 6awg from battery to charge controller, sound right ? Also am I better with 2 - 100ah batteries or 1- 200ah batterry , no difference?? Just looked at different...

Sorry im new to all this and sound stupid sometimes but I'm trying and learning.. lol 200ah battery with 100a bms That means it's limited to 100a max at once.. I'm limited by the bms of the battery correct??

200ah is Ok so the inverter size is irrelevant, I can have a 3000w inverter but it's limited by the battery output ok ok .. Thanks

So on the battery I'm looking at 200ah the bms is 100a I believe.. Is 3000w inverter to much even though max I'll ever put on it will be 1500w maybe ..?? Or is to big an inverter bad , mybe get a 2200w inverter???

Coffee maker for 10 min in morning.. I'm just wandering if having a bigger inverter even though not used to its max on 200ah battery is bad .. Should I have a smaller inverter or doesn't matter ??

Hi Ok so I'm getting mix messages doing online research, maybe someone can help me .. Can I run a 3000watt inverter with 200ap lithium battery ..?? 12v . Research shows I need 300ah min. I will never have it at full load , max will be a coffee maker or microwave not at same time...

So not sure what inverter I'm getting yet, but something like this .. Battery cables in one side and plug to trailer shore power to the other.. Would that work ? Don't want to hard wire if I don't have to if this works.?? Just though this way was easier if it works ..???

By the way I want to thank you so much , you've been and continue to be extremely helpful and I appreciate it very much.. We're you from ?

Wow info overload .lol I'm an idiot for this stuff remember but that's awesome knowledge to absorb.. Ok on the breaker size , will switch and as for fuse going from battery to inverter I'll have to wait to see the size of inverter I get correct?? Ya I was told to turn the breaker...

I'm a visual guy so is this correct way?? Without inverter and with ..

Wasn't the way to ground but if you did it and it works , perfect and simple.

Ok so I can ground to trailer .. I was reading that was the way but ok perfect .. Now if you don't mind , explain this bus bar thing ?? Do i need one for my simple set up ??

Ok here's another stupid question for you experts in this field.lol I'm learning a lot but much more needed.lol Victron charge controller needs to be grounded ? Do I put the wire to the trailer frame , to the negative of the battery ?? I'm not getting this bus bar thing and we're t...

Ya I've decided to do it right an go wit the victron , great reviews .. The 60 amp charger from what I can see holds 6 awg wire max. Do I need Tha big a wire , they say yes ..lol

Thank you for the info

Thinking of getting the outback charge controler , anyone using it and is it compatible with lithium ion batteries?

Anyone using them or have used them ?

Hi Lots of different vids with different opinions , confused.. Looking at renogy charge controlers and inverters .. They any good for price point and for weekend trailer kind of thing ?

Thanks

Also , I was looking at renogy charge controller and inverter , any good for the price point ? Or stay away ?

Wow ok thanks , great very helpfull .. Worse case get another battery I guess.

And the 200 ah lithium battery is enough to run all that for few days ? Solar would charge things back up in afternoon .. How many watts or amp per hour would that fridge use on all day ?

Hi again So I've looked at everything this weekend and need advice.. All I want is to run this suff on weekends when I'm there , so 2-3 days .. -First pic is my panels x2 -Second is mini fridge -Third is coffee maker , 10 min in morning . So correct meif I'm wrong...

I'm gonna take inventory of all that this weekend .. This all started with this guy selling me a bluetti ac200p with 700w of panels.. More then enough power he says but the problem was the unit would shut off when we were no there and you have to manually turn it back on .. Would get...

Ok I'll do that this weekend and get back to you or post it.. Thanks again so much ..

Yes that's what I'm doing is running on propane mode but it needs electricity for fan apparently.. Very little I was told . Thats what I would run all week and start the electric mini only on weekend when there.. I'm getting a solid 5 + hours of sun a day this time of year.. Thanks...

Ya I do have a 2200 w Gen.. I've been using it to charge my batteries when there and when needed .. Not great but this is why the questions to improve..lol Would a 1000w inverter run a small mini fridge constantly threw a weekend ? One more question and by the way , you've been...

Oh Ok, I know not enough charger is bad but having larger then needed has no effects .. I'm assuming having and inverter is useless with the panels and batteries I have ? Would need more of both ?? Not trying to build a 10k system but would be nice to watch TV or run mini electric fridge...

In the future maybe .. Basicly, trailer is in an area with no electricity and we use it as weekend get away and would like to keep my fridge on all week wile we are not there.. It's propane but it need electricity.. Basically use the 12v system on trailer like lights , pump , radio ect...

Hi I'm new to this site and to solar tech in general so I hope I don't ask t many stupid questions ..lol This would be for my trailer , just want the 12v system for now . I have two 350w panels for total of 700w of power and 2 six volt deep cycle batteries ( costco ) with 200ah ...
