@Channel1BLT Hi, for panel installs you need a licensed electrician. You cannot connect to your panel from a regular inverter or DC current, you will blow up:-0. The grid tie inverters are special devices that allow for a plug n play sort of but any house hook ups, get some pro help.
@Channel1BLT
Since the panel supply (via your local elctric company) is out of phase of inverter output, You need a synchronizer switch (relay) before connect it to panel. Call an electrician.
Inverter is a buffer which is installed after your windmill or solar panel and before consumers. (or Panel)
This video is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Great vid, Thank you so much!
Solar technology is now almost perfect. Please let’s bring down the prices so that we can all afford it.
Great video thnxs!! I’m wondering how many 12v batteries you would need for for example a 200Watt load. 200Watt / 12 V = 16 Amps. And also how long the car batteries will last.
Awesome ! Great information Dan.
I don’t need that thing from ebay 20 dollar is much money
All i do P=U x I
mostley you know P in Watts and U is mostly 230V
for example 500 watt radiator use
500=230 x I
I= 500/230= 2,17 Amps
easy
Hi Dan, this is very helpful.
Could you connect another three panels to the same charge controller you have to get close to 100 Watts?
@imigrantpunk Yes, each HFreight Controller can handle 6 15 watt panels or two units.
Dan I live in Va where can a I buy 2 120w 12v solar panel and the hardware
Check our website “Solar Panels” there are links at the bottom.
Great video…start small first… that’s the key…
i hope you can help. i’m building my panels. should, i build the panel to 18v or 12v. i’m told 18v for the panels. what do you suggest?
thanks for the ear
love the scary horse @ the end!!!
Dan says deep cycle batteries are designed to be totally drained. The truth is that they are designed to withstand a heavy drain better than others. You should never completely drain a battery. If you want to optimize the life of any lead-acid battery, you shouldn’t drain it below 50%. So however much storage capacity you think you need, double that for your battery array, and then avoid draining it. Your batteries will last for a LOT of years this way.
Another point on Inverters: Modified Sin Wave is usually just a straight square wave. This is as simple as using a 60Hz timer to switch polarity back and forth. That’s why these inverters can be produced dirt cheap. Pure sin wave inverters are much fancier but their cleaner power will mean motors will run using less power. For toasters, ovens, and other resistive loads, modified sin wave should work nearly just as well! Fantastic video all in all. Keep it up, Rojas!
Don’t run your batteries below 75% SOC if you can and absolutely avoid going below 11v
Lots of good information out there… but anything from “Power4Home” website – IS
a SCAM.
POWER4HOME – does NOT give REFUNDS by the way !
So, head out to reputable companies , lots of help out there, power4home isn’t one of them. cheers…
hail storm brakes solar panels? Yes or No.
@nnnnnn7678 GOLF BALL SIZED or larger, yes. IF you have severe hail frequently, you can build a wire mesh cage, ugly but works. IF screens and car windows get broken, not much can survive.
Dan you and your wife are great. Thanks for the info.
Dan, thank you so much for these insights! Question: Do they make any other typse of charge controller that will handle more than 2 units?
Dan what are the best deep cycle batteries? and ones that are easy to maintain. i am new to this and i saw some very confusing ones where you add distilled water??
Thank you for the great videos. Very helpful! I have some questions…
Do you anticipate a “stronger” deep-cycle battery being manufactured anytime soon, as opposed to having to use several batteries at a time?
As far as gel batteries, can they be safely used inside the home without having to ventilate them?
Again, thanks for your help.
@SciFiBMovieGuy Hi, all wet cell batteries should be in a well vented area in case of overcharging. I keep mine in a covered area outside. This enables short wiring on the DC side and a longer AC from a Grid Tie or regular inverter. MIT is working on some newer internal designs. I cant find the link. Google “MIT Battery”
