Hello guys,
am looking to build a battery backup to run my sump pump in event of grid down while away.
The battery will be the sinopoly type recommended by will (because I want to try it)
It will be installed in a basement that does not freeze.
The pump is a 1/3 hp 120v pump that needs to be able to run 15 seconds every 15 minutes for 3 days.
I figure this is drawing 2.9 amps when it is running.
I'd like to do a 12 or a 24v system and I'd like to try the grundig better pure sine wave inverter will recommends.
What I'd like help with:
size of the 24v battery to only discharge from 90% to 30% over the three days.
Recommendations on a charger for the battery.
I would like to add solar over time and based on the experience scale this battery size up - to a whole home potentially of 7-10kw 48 v system.
The intermediate step would be to duplicate the system on a small camper next year.
Things I want to avoid - smart charger / bms/ low voltage disconnect / temp sensor - anything that has wifi/bluetooth, etc. We have enough rf in our lives already.
