Solar Training is an interesting idea as True Green Business may be the wave of the future.
Please rate this video. Thank you very much. http://www.greenpowerscience.com/
$250 solar panel sysytem in action.
This easy system is affordable and there is no need to take out a 2nd mortgage:-)

BCUTA…… is a generic sound bit from Garage Band:-)
I have a golf cart that has 6 Trojan batteries in it.

Youll want marine/RV batteries, not regular lead acid like the kind thats in your car. Deep cycle batteries are made for many cycles. Lead acid will go bad quickly. For a large battery bank you want to use deep cycle 6 volt (trojan forklift) batteries. You will have less cells, and less likelyhood of them charging differently. Make sure the inverter is a clean sine wave model before hooking up sensitive electronics.
What does BCUTA0WBCD Mean?

For just the panels=$12,000 – $25,000 depending on installation into your house. If you need 24 hour 5kw you can double this.

Anybody know how much money it will cost me as far as purchaseing solar panels, that will operate about 4-5000 watts continueously? Thx!

I think your inverter efficiency will be based more on the quality of the model rather then maximum power.
If your charge controller is designed properly, it should go into a sleep mode and draw very little current when not in use. (Like your television or any other electronic when turned off)

If anyone does this for an enclosed area DO Not Use regular car battery unless its a Dry Cell type because regular car batteries puts out toxic fumes in areas enclosed.

I was wondering if a 1500 Watt inverter will consume more battery power than say a 1000 Watt inverter? I’m looking to buy an inverter and I usually will use less than 1000 Watt but I want to get a bigger one just in case but I am worried about the 1500 W inverter being less ineffecient than a 1000 W inverter when I only use less than 1000 Watts.
Also, if you leave the charge controller on at night, will it consume energy from the battery?
Thanks.

How many of this would a Central AC unit pull? I am in Houston and the usage in summertime is tremendous! Thanks.

whats the quality of the cells?Do you think it will be giving you 45 watts 10-20 years from now?Harbor Freight has this now for 179$or 199$ minus 20% coupon.Good deal for 45watts?

now… If you used reflecting panels to increase the amount of light shining on the panels, you will increase the panel’s power output.

I was thinking of putting a Solar panel into a hydrogne generator and using the hydrogen to run a generator big enough to run a mobile home. or part of a house. would a solar panel produce enough voltage to power a hydrogen gen? just a thought.

i love the idea of indepenance.
i think we got a problem with governments and capitalist powers tbh..
too many inventors geting ignored or debunked and at worse dying mysteriously, buti think thats CIA .

You’re actually correct about the total amperage being less than four and a half, but this guy is more correct than you. At peak wattage, let’s assum that the panel produces 45 watts. Divide the Watts (or P in Ohm’s Law) by the voltage (E) and you get Amps (I), 3.75 in this case. It’s Ohm’s law. And it is called a law for a reason.

Forgot to ask….I’m in the Northeast. I have a mobile home. I will have a vented box for the batteries. What temperatures should these be maintained between?

Dan, good videos. I will be getting this set up. I also am getting a wind turbine, for later installation. Can you show how and what controllers etc, are needed so the solar and wind turbine charge the same bank of batteries?

I’m trying to live more simpler … I try to think what do I use electricity for?
and learning to preserve and can food.

Not sure if there is a cause-effect relationship, but after using a cheap inverter to keep a laptop charged during a couple of huricanes a few years ago I found myself replacing the transformers. I suspect (and perhaps someone who knows more about this subject could comment here) that sine wave inverters are needed for this application.

It’s great to see people turning out portable power with these things. Keep It Up!

Dan,
This was finally the nuts and bolts basics of the core components that are required which I have not found explained on the net. I now understand what I need, and also how I’ll add up my voltage for my outdoor lighting to figure out how long my deep cell power would last daily. I think you did an excellent job explaining everything and appreciate it!

I am a Communications Technologies undergraduate and I found this video very informative.
In my small opinion I think solar technologies maybe the way to the future of domestic power supply.
The move from oil and gas supplied electricity is good.
To run a house I think you’ll need 12 or better 24 volt battery and a Pure Sine Wave Inverter.
They give you more of a similar output to the national grid its expensive I’m sure it’ll get cheaper.
Thanks for sharing very impressive.
