Nice, as an added bonus you get free hail protection for your patio…
👍🏻👍🏻
Great video! I didn't realize that you could get that much wattage on a cloudy day! I can't wait to see the next one!
Thanks Derek👍🏻
That’s going to be one nice setup when you get done. 👍🏻
👍🏻👍🏻
Looking good! I'm working on installing 3 x 100W solar panels on my teardrop trailer also.
👍🏻👍🏻
Nerding out with Brian. Looks like a good set up for the shop.
lol👍🏻👍🏻
I installed 4) 100 watt panels on my detached garage and tied into a solar controller with 3) 100AH batteries that power a 5000 watt 120 volt inverter. Works well, use it to power outdoor refrigerator and deep freezer.
👍🏻👍🏻
Very cool stuff. :) It's always funny when people ask if you can power their (insert insanely power-hungry device here) with a couple of solar panels. The logistics of what it takes to power the typical American household with solar is no joke!
lol👍🏻👍🏻
Very nice! Looking forward to seeing the follow up videos. Nice idea of using the pergola, allowing good air flow and cooling. I have 3 x 100 watt panels on a DIY square drop and I have no problems keeping my 150 ah battery charged.
👍🏻👍🏻
Solar is fun. Like to see what the output is on a nice day. Great Video!
Saw them output 685 watts this afternoon👍🏻
@@BrianWatersOutdoors That's awesome!
Pretty cool. I’ve been wanting to do some similar, power something small like a chest freezer and lawn equipment/a nice backup.
👍🏻👍🏻
Nice! We put about 3000 W on our previous house in Jan 2009 on a special solar offer from our utility. Even after 15 years, we could get 2500 to 2700 watts on a sunny summer day. We basically had no utility costs (other than taxes and fees - about $20 per month) from April through November - even in rainy Oregon! Our electricity usage went from about 6000 kWh per year to less than 2000 kWh. In Texas, this should be a no-brainer - especially if you can get government tax credits (we got both state and federal credits which knocked about $10K off a $20K system). Then the Utility gave us a $5000 credit, so we had less than $5K in the system.
👍🏻👍🏻
Those panels are a beast, they should do well for you in full sun. Nice project looking forward to the additions.
👍🏻👍🏻
Video good nice pictures Jim Ross
👍🏻👍🏻
Next time push a dowel through the center of the wire to uncoil them. It keeps the wire from getting tangled.
👍🏻👍🏻
Fun project! Look forward to the system it powers. Thanks for the video.
Thanks👍🏻
Very cool, but I would only do this in desert states, because I am too scared of all of the hail we now get.
👍🏻
Insurance companies are canceling some services to their customers with a roof mount. I would check with them first before you do decide to mount them on your home.
I’m planning to mount on my storage shed. Or a ground system.
I wasn’t aware of that. I do t think I’d ever permenantly mount panels on the roof. Imagine the hassle when/if you have to replace your roof
flat or angled... Mount them! wind will blow them off!
👍🏻
Nice panels
👍🏻👍🏻
Sungold has a good rep.
👍🏻
You: “How is this going to work?”.
Your wife: “It’s not”
Definition of a married couple doing a project together.:)
Lolol. Everyday
Hey Brian! Looks like a successful project. I believe that's going to help you alot going forward. I was just wondering, I don't know much about solar systems. But I was wondering if there is a booster of some kind that would increase the wattage you can get from the panels?
There is not👍🏻
Wait till the hail comes
Yep
❤
👍🏻
👍🏻👍🏻
👍🏻
Way to get Tara to rub on your butt during the install. LOL. If you angle the panels, you might have to separate them a little more because the first panel may cast a shadow on the second one
👍🏻👍🏻
😎👍🏻👍🏻🍺🍺
👍🏻👍🏻
Lift the panels up and quit acting like they are heavy.
I know , I know 👍🏻
@BrianWatersOutdoors I'm just kidding man! Thanks for the videos. 👍
