First Test of the Solar Power System on the Surthrival Trailer

in #life6 years ago (edited)



Everything works! Panels are charging the batteries, inverter is putting out power, and a load is being powered!

I her you, I have more than enough RC now but I can't upvote. It recharge's way to slow (:

Yeah @makinstuff that has been stuck in my head for days now! The part that really gets me is that none of the 'top tier' accounts are affected but all us small fish are getting shafted! I am hanging in there but it all rubs me the wrong way!

I see you have 8 batteries. Are you using 6 volt batteries or 12 volt ones for the system?
I saw on the charge controller that it's a 48 volt system. Is the power invertor separate from the charge controller?

Hey Amber! yep they are 6v 215AH wet cell golf cart batteries wired in series to give me 48v. The inverter is integrated in the product on a smart AC transfer switch. It is a patent pending controller that can switch power for charging from the grid or solar panels. If the bank is in a good state it will switch the power from the solar panels to run the inverter directly.

That sounds like a good setup!
