hi i need to knw that, if i need to run an airconditioned of 1500 watts the panels of how many watts i needed and if i add fridge as well than how many more panels i need to run both appliances!!!

With all the news recently about sunspots and solar flares I was wondering if these pose any risk to solar power systems?

[wwjoshdew]

what's up with the computer power supply next to the hot water heater?

And how cool would it be if you ran a window ac unit using the sun? Cold air in your house all thanks to the sun without paying for it!

The thing i dont like about solar panels, and windmills is that they attract too much attention

[Lanny615]

@Fergus247, Solar panels can be on a roof out of sight, windmills however are easily seen. But i dont understand why it should matter if they draw attention or not, depending on where you live i guess.

[ikilicoglu]

But thats good, because they deserve attention. And you get a ++ from friends and neighbors for acting sustainable. Its something you should be proud of!

[fergus247]

@ikilicoglu except when your friends and neighbours realize you have power and they dont

[elave16]

how many cicles do the batteries handle? are the deep circle? , 1500Watt modifyed sine wave? or squarewave? or what?, outputt of the solar panels ? how many average sunny days do you have?.

Thanks

I want to know this to consider solar energy as a viable power source.

i need helpon my dead solar panel system can you help

Just bought a three panel kit so it was good to see this video. Can't wait for it to get here.

SSI 200W grid tie inverter can be purchased from buyerIsland for $259.00

this is something to look at. Using this puts power into the home grid cheaper then what you are looking to upgrade to "you said you wanted to upgrade from you inverter you have now."

Plus you don't have to maintain batteries or space for them.

Nice vid. Something to consider: Those automotive batteries, if deeply discharged are not going to last long. i had a similar setup with a couple of automotive batteries and one of them died after 6 months. (there was a 1 yr full replacement warranty - hehe). Later this summer I'll post the new setup for my solar cabin. Thanks for sharing.

[mixcatcom]

thanks for the post.. Great idea.. Yeah I dont let them go under 11 volts.

Take care my friend,

You should really look into using identical batteries. Mixing batteries of different age, and output is not good for them and you'll end up spending more on future batteries than actually saving electricity. From the looks of it, you are using an automotive battery and a deep cycle battery together. An even bigger no-no as they are meant for two completely different tasks.

This is the exact setup I was wanting for my shop. Thanks for posting. Great job!

[mixcatcom]

Perfect for a shop. If you put one up you can video respond to this one. ;o)

Take care,

if you have a shop, for installing solar power system, you should first consider what type of equipment are availanble in your workshop, and what are their power consumption. how many hoers you are using each equipment , after calculating your daily power consumption, divide the total power to approximately five hours sun time depending your location, that will set the amount of power you sill need for solar system. and always better to make it grid-tied system. batteries are very costly.

F ing A dude. Way to be.

[mixcatcom]

Thanks man more to come.

Keep up the good work!

[mixcatcom]

Thanks!

[KooolaNL]

is that a psu from a computer on there

[mixcatcom]

hahaa I should have taken that down.. No that has nothing to do with the Solar panel. But it is a power supply from a PC.. Good call!

Take care,

-Pete

[mixcatcom]

About 3 hours.

How long would it take to fully charge the batteries?
