Hi, I recently purchased a cabin with an existing solar system. It definitely needs revamped and maintained but when I spoke to a local solar tech he said the amount of batteries to the amount of panels is not correct. He stated those panels can’t charge that amount of batteries? Does this make sense? I don’t know the watts of the panels. I believe the inverters are 3500w (one needs repaired) EA and 48v. Batteries lead acid 12v. There are 24 batteries. The cabin is 2800 sq feet, two people living there part time. Half the year. Appliances electric fridge, toaster, blender, microwave. Tv, star link router and general lights for the house. I don’t know the KWH.
Basically what I’m wondering is, do I really need new panels or is this guy trying to upsell me? He also recommends 10k of lithium batteries. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks for your help!
