Hi I love your videos. I need an advice I am building a solar panel of
about 100 watts to help my family cut down electric bill. What charge
controller would you recommend ? Thank you

I’m curious – is Denise keen on such machinery or she is doing it because
of you?

@DarwinsFriend Interesting statement, but if you don’t back up what you
say, how do I know your opinion has any validity? I can think of lots of
situations where solar panels would make a lot of sense.

@Raaszhecku haha take that system… also your house will last alot longer
then houses built 2 day.. and doubles as a bunker

@dinze1 Nope, no need for a battery! Could be smart to have a bettery in
case of a power-outage..

@88roro11 you know, they do sell Insulated shipping containers. They sell
extra tall, refrigerated, open top, and extra wide door versions too

How much did those two solar panels cost?

Well done Denise, you are the “Queen of Green”. It’s about time Dan quit
hogging the camera.

What about a hybrid inverters like the ones from xantrex? These inverters
work like grid-tie inverters when the power is on (and can also charge the
batteries with grid power), and work like off-grid inverters when the power
is out so that your panels will still work in case hyper-stagflation
creates rolling blackouts.

OK, so I got two of those long flexible panels from a guy on ebay, and
tested one today, it is pushing the 40+ volts, which according to the label
on my 300 watt grid tie inverter is too high for it. What do I do now? Get
a different GTI? Put s ome sort of voltage reducer on the line?

where is you buy that flexable solar panel?? whats it’s life expectancy?
PhattyMo says:

What size are those storage containers,and how much did they cost? I’m
thinking of getting a couple in the future,just like to get an idea of what
to expect!

@DarwinsFriend Well, I guess your function here is to keep us all apprised
as to the social implications of these interesting new technologies. I
usually go elsewhere if I want to discuss the political, economic and
sociological aspects of new technologies.

Solar Panels – from the time of their manufacture, installation,
maintenance and disposal – are an economic fallacy. If you’re remote –
they’re great. Everywhere else – they’re a joke.
DarwinsFriend says:

The actual “value” of these new technologies and not being cognizant of the
actual human cost, is much like diamonds being pit mined in Africa. If I
can buy it at ‘Kay Jewelers’ for 1/2 the price elsewhere – why should I
give a damn? Same – same with all sorts of solar panel production. Nobody
bothers with where the ingredients come from to make them and damn well
don’t care where the waste from such activity goes – even in 25 years when
the panels give up the ghost. Nothing is free children.

Have you studied circuts? The battery system you showed has the batteries
in series. You called it a parallel circut. Put Denise on more!
Bob Pritchard says:

Very informative BUT you should not mention connecting a modified sine wave
inverter to the grid. To connect to the grid you must use a pure sine wave
inverter which incorporated anti islanding.
Connecting a modified inverter to the grid will get you a visit from your
local utility.

Did I miss something, should’t the system include a solar
controler/regulator.. This device protects the battery by not over
charging the batt and saving it from damage, the controller would also cut
the power when your over using it thus protecting your batt from getting
too lower a voltage and drained out.. which has a bad effect on batts. So,
you may not need to worry about deep cycle batts because a car batt would
be protected from running to low. Controllers can be bought for £7, I
would say essential for good solar applications.

how are you , If anyone else is discover the top tips for solar power try
Banfan Genie Solar Power (do a search on google)? Ive heard some
interesting things about it and my sister got cool results with it – saved
a lot of money

If you use something like a Furman power conditioner, it will smooth out
the power curve and keep the temperatures down of what every is plugged in;
let say your refrigerator motor. They cost around $50 and go up, the only
thing is it may steal some run time away from the battery.

Dude, you really think your thousand watt inverter is gonna power the grid?
If it ever does manage to get itself on the grid it wouldn’t even be able
to power a LED………………………….

Lots of good information out there… but anything from “Power4Home”
website – IS a SCAM. POWER4HOME – does NOT give REFUNDS by the way ! So,
head out to reputable companies , lots of help out there, power4home isn’t
one of them. cheers…

@SciFiBMovieGuy you can use gel batterys inside a house but you can not put
them in a sealed container
John RossStar says:

@GREENPOWERSCIENCE if you have a string of panels, can’t you run them all
to one inverter or would you need one for each panel? some dude has 45
micro-inverters on each of his panels; seems like a few large ones would be
cheaper and more efficient

@Redboykc420 yea kinda jumped the gun on that one. I kinda thought that it
was a pretty decent one though. But on the real note, yea you should
research how one looks like.

For those that know solar… If you were to make 2 solar panels each using
36 mono, 6×6, 4 Watt, 0.5 volt and 8 amp cells, what kind of batteries
would you use? Also, how many batteries would you use? Probably 1 battery
to each panel right? So if you were using 2 batteries for 2 panels like
these what kind of inverter would you use, 24volt? Would appreciate.

Enjoy your videos…they’ve been a great intro to simple solar. Question: I
have one HFT panel (15w), a 7 amp charge regulator and a 200w inverter
connected to a deep cycle battery. I’d like to add more 15w panels…do I
simply link them all to the battery, via splicing them into the one charge
regulator, then to the battery terminals? Thanks

so that we can all afford it.

Hey Dan a couple of questions what are the pros and cons of on the grid and
off the grid? And you think you could help me built a system for a project
for my self. Planning on buying my first home in about 2 months or so. Dont
want to buy a simple system from ebay. And then to re-buy anther one later
on. If you could help me built one so I could use some of the componets for
the next future system. when I get my new home. Thanks Love your videos
very helpful.

ya inverter do not work when it”s to hot out side + inverter wont work when
they get hot + inverter get hot fast + when the batteries go down that”s it
on more power
