Just wrapped up the project! This is my home solar emergency power bank. Everything will be enclosed in a custom cabinet (to be installed in a few weeks). The system consists of:
- Four 195-watt Eco-Worthy panels, mounted on our porch covering, facing due south.
- Three Weize 24-volt, 200 AH batteries, for 600 AH total storage.
- Victron 150/35 charge controller
- Victron Multiplus 24/3000/70 Inverter/Charger
- Victron BMV-712 battery monitor
This system does not connect to the house electrical -- use requires extension cords connected to the power strip close to the floor. The purpose is to keep refrigerators, freezers, and other essential devices running in the event of a lengthy power outage.
You'll also see a connection labeled "Cart Charging Port". Last year I built a roll-around solar generator, it can plug into there for charging.
