@smallsolar I have something similar and from that very brand, and I’ve written about it here https://infosec.exchange/@GuillaumeRossolini/114528117027500354 I’m not plugging the panels in a wall outlet and I’m not connecting them to the grid. This is just a temporary setup in an isolated circuit. The panels are in the garden, connected to the battery which is located inside the house; the inverter is in storage, I don’t need it since there is no connection to the grid and it’d be draining the battery faster The washing machine is usually plugged into the battery I have one cable leading from the battery to my office to power stuffs when there is enough sunlight that day, and I’ll often switch everything back to the wall outlet or to the battery depending on weather conditions Another cable is extended on demand when I need vacuuming done As soon as the sun starts typically shining enough of the day, which is right about now, I extend another cable to the living room for the TV and whatnot, but that’s a tough one for my tiny setup to absorb, so there’s a lot of plugging and unplugging daily for that one🤣 I stopped trying to power the freezer with the same panels, I tried that last year but it was stressful Every night, I tell the battery to stop powering everything; every morning, I tell it to enable the output again Still, I’m getting a lot from just two panels and a small battery
