    I don't think you can use more than 20 panels total only 8kw input on that inverter Space the arrays 25 ft apart, order a mppt crimper with extra connectors, is there less shading farther north? Np you can do this easy , need help ask me. Solar pro by new year.

    • @7sigmaoff-grid
      @7sigmaoff-grid День тому

      Thanks Bob! Wasn't' sure how far apart the arrays should be. Chat GPT gave me 10 ft apart based upon our GPS coordinates...but I'm definitely going to go with your suggestion of 25ft instead. You are spot on... as we were going to see if we can go further north with the arrays this weekend. I'm not really liking the initial spot we've chosen after seeing how low the sun is currently(with the pyramid mountain directly behind us during winter solstice season). A beautiful piece of property, but not ideal for solar due to the large mountain ranges on our southern side(rookie mistake)...but we will have to supplement with generator and be aware of power usage during winter to offset the mountain obstruction. Hopefully we can move the arrays further north without having to take down a lot of trees...we'll see this weekend ! Thanks again sir for all of your help!!!!

    • @bobmonztr
      @bobmonztr День тому

      @7sigmaoff-grid I have mine at 25ft ,49th , I got mount shade me at 3pm, since I can see shadows this year, next year I have to move 2 arrays , when you upgrade 2nd inverter, 60kw battery. 12 pack and 12 more panels. You can have a dual system, one goes bad,half still works. Each inverter gets 30kw battery. Join in at the AC panel. Supersolsrstar. The ground rods for home and arrays don't forget those. 5/8 4ft.

    I don't know a thing about solar, but I find this interesting. Can't wait to see how you all make the frames for the panels etc. I was thinking like you did...maybe don't put 11 panels long. If you make it shorter with several rows, you probably will have room to drive to the water tank then. Not sure if that is right, but sounds right. LOL.

    That tractor is gonna come in handy moving that rock around. I built a garage last year and ordered 3 full 18 wheeler truck loads of road base and 2 18 wheeler truck loads of fill dirt (dirt with big rocks in it), to level my building surface because nothing on my property if flat. You will be amazed at how quickly the rock goes. I couldn't believe I needed as much as I did and it wasn't cheap. I still need another full load of road base for some project finishing around here, and need to order materials to build a tractor shelter. I really like building stuff though its rewarding to see something you built yourself go from nothing to something useful that increases your property value at the same time. You got a big job with the panels but I know you can do it.

    I’m not sure what size panels those are, but If you’re trying to stay under a certain voltage, I suspect you can go ahead and add those other 2 panels on each string. You can go over the voltage slightly on the strings because the panels will never put out their rated power. I.e. 3000w of panels will put out around 2500w or so on best days.

    • @7sigmaoff-grid
      @7sigmaoff-grid 4 дні тому

      Thanks for the tip! That's a great idea and definitely something we will be looking into! the panels are 420w and the inverter has 2 PV inputs of 4000w each totaling 8000w. Now if I fry my inverter, I'm going to say you made me do it...LOL. Just kidding Scott!

      @@7sigmaoff-grid Hahaha, you won’t fry it. I have the same inverter. Just try it this way, build it so you can add the other 4. Plug in your 11, find the sunniest day and laugh when the power comes in. Its what I did and I have bi-facial panels. On their best day, its still only about 90%. THEN…. You can blame me while you’re hooking up your extra panels. Also, if you look in your manual, you’ll see that it actually supports more voltage that stated, it just can’t use more voltage than stated. But, it all works out because you’ll be generating close to the maximum it can use anyway. “Ooooooh, that Scott!!!!!”

      @7sigmaoff-grid 😆😁😄 I figured that !!! Instead of 11 in a ➡️ horitzontal row. Make it a horizontal row of 6 with stacked 2 panels high. It would be a total of 12 instead of 11, but it would take up less space horizontally . Example : ◽◽◽◽◽◽ ◽◽◽◽◽◽ VS ◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽

    That is a nice view from the vortex....you should build a home up there eventually. And it was at this point of the video I noticed the dog was not there LOL guess he did like dealing with that leash. That cow poop will make great fertilizer for when you do a garden! Nice property!!

    Hello. Mix baking soda, jiffy cornbread mix, and a little bit of cheese. Put scoops in various parts of your home. The mice can not digest the baking soda and they will die. A lot of farmers use this trick and it works perfectly. Most importantly, it will not be toxic to your dog or any other animals.

    Use window screen to get a good tight seal over the hole and around the pipes. THEN, use a can of spray foam to cover the wire screen.

    IF you have a spring and IF it “runs” enough, your water problem might be solved. Depending on the cost to pipe it to your home. If you haven’t already checked into it it might just be a less expensive option.

    Please be careful with what you said about “violators will be ____” - if anything ever happens (hopefully never) but if you have to protect your place, that phrase can be used to attempt to prove “intent”. I would mute that part of the video just for your protection and feel free to delete this comment so it doesn’t exist after you read it. Nice protection though! 2A!

    Good morning 7Sigma. Yall are funnnyyy! Regarding the mouse situation, I purchased some property with a house already on it, only to find out later that it had mice. I used some TomCat glue traps from Walmart. The mice would step on it and could not escape. The more they struggled, the stucker they got. I would check the trap, see 'em stuck there. pick up the trap and throw it a trash bag. It worked quickly and efficiently. Just a suggestion in case you feel your current traps are missing mice. Otherwise, I love your videos. You have a very nice piece of property there.

    Someday buy a couple 4-wheelers with pull behind wagons. You should try and clean up the old dead wood lying around. Fire hazard plus you'll scare off the coyotes. You could possibly sell fire wood or build yourself a fire pit. In your spare time, lol. Nice property, when you move there full time you can have lots of animals. Chickens, ducks, geese, goats, build a pond. I'm telling you my plans...to have a barn full of animal's when I retire in 4 to 5 months. Yoowoo.
