I've been trying to figure out a way to use an Apollo 5k for emergency backup with temporary solar as a charging option. My problem is finding room for the panels necessary to get above the 120v PV minimum input for the Apollo. My new line I'm thinking about is can I use a microinverter to...

I have a limited amount of space so I am trying to find panels that are 70v or higher, maybe as low as 50v. I'm looking at the Apollo 5k so need 120v minimum to operate the PV charger. I saw an advertisement for some panels that were listed as 70 voc on the sticker but didn't show a name or...

My questions are: Would there be any issue charging an Apollo 5K from a bonded neutral inverter (F-150 Pro Power) while it is also powering a transfer switch that already has a neutral bond at the main panel? Is the Apollo AC charger and AC output connected that would then create two bonding...

What are some good options for semi-portable panels that will give me the 120v minimum input voltage required for the Apollo 5k? I've been bouncing back and forth between an Apollo 5k and a Delta Pro Ultra primarily as a backup power source for critical loads in our house. I've been leaning...

I'm looking to build a backup system for some of our home power that is at least partially PV based but trying to decide on the "best" route. While I generally like building, tinkering and DIYing as much as I can, I'm not sure I want to do that for this. I want it super simple for anyone in the...
