Hello ladies and gents and those that are niether(do yall do that here)?.
Im a 20+ year electrician that got put onto a dodge promaster build out a couple years back and have wanted a system of my own ever since, Well that time has come.
I plan on starting small and expanding as i can afford so im starting with my chicken coop, yes my chicken coop. It will power a security light on the exterior maybe 1 light in the interior and probably a heated water bowl in the winter time.
Im starting out with the Renogy 200W kit for the panels and charge controller(it was on sale) for storage i ended picking up a box of 4 EVE 304 AH cells(also on sale) (i know its a large bank for the # of panels) and went with a daly 250a smart BMS.
I think i got lucky picking out the cells as i admitidly didnt do as much research as i should have. The BMS however im not as confident about after reading some things. like most things nowadays though sometimes you get good ones and sometimes you get a stinker.
Ill wrap it up with some pics of the promaster build out feel free to critique it as im self taught with all things solar.
