Genius at work! Thanks for the detailed explanation.
Wow, this is great. I have been looking for such a long time for a video like this so glad I found you here. I’ll be in contact.
I am from the Pacific Northwest and have 7.7 kW of PV on my roof. I’m running a 24 V system.
I could do that with less, but it rains a lot here and I find the biggest problem in the winter months is insulation. So if you’re in a cold environment, I would concentrate heavily on the insulation.
Hello Ben. I’m researching for a new build, all DC home. Obviously having issues with finding the larger appliances.
What solution did you go with for fridge/oven/washer/etc.? I’m wanting full-size, “normal” house appliances, so looking at modifying them, or point-of-charge inverters that can be unplugged as more DC only appliances become available over the years.
Hope to be where you are power-wise in 8-9 months. Congrats on being there!
Very nice, it must be super quiet in those yurts. I'll check out that e-book. Recently I rebuilt my system and for the same cost as 10 years ago, I doubled the power available. 1600W solar, 24 volt system, lead acid 400Ah battery, if I was to change it further would be to have 2400W solar...which would involve a bigger model charge controller...or go more dc like in the video. Thanks guys, you rock.
It's way easier today to build your self it's just plug and play. Way cheaper than when I went off grid 28 yrs ago.
Who makes the best DC appliances?
