    I make all my own solar electricity. I run 2-60 Watt ham radios, a small truck fridge, a diesel heater, LED lights and I have the option for 4.5, 6, 7.5, 9 and 12 volts on dedicated outlets. I also have a 115 volt 2000 watt pure sine wave inverter for all other things. You doing the right thing there Mr. Arms keep it up.

    I am probably too old for this technology to be of any real significance to me, but I am intrigued by the possibilities. Even as back-up power, I think coupling it with solar to trickle charge your back-up power system is a brilliant concept, especially for city dwellers. Many subdivisions still prohibit the installation of solar panels on the front elevation of the home, but if your home faces the north you could fill the roof with the southern exposure with solar panels and have back-up or peak-hour use from your own system.
    For a lake cabin, I could see this being the primary power system. I might be expensive for the initial install but the peace of mind of always having power is a comforting thought. Great video and awesome information, even if it is basically and commercial for your sponsor. This is still my favorite UA-cam channel.

    Interesting statement at the beginning and end about liberal states penalizing those who use grid power. I’m in a state where one side leans liberal and the other side of the state leans conservative. Both sides support use of solar and wind energy so that we don’t have to rely on an unreliable grid. Power companies pay us to produce power and send it back to the grid. The state is investing in renewable energy in a variety of ways. Liberal and conservative working toward the same goal with no penalties even on the horizon for discussion.

    • @suzglass
      @suzglass День тому

      In my ULTRA conservative state, they do everything they can to discourage home solar power generation. The power company does not allow net metering and charges fees if you produce too much power, like $5.31/kwh, in addition to fees just for having solar. If we want solar they recommend we purchase, at a premium, green energy credits that THEY purchase for us from other states. They will buy power back if you have over a 100 kw system. What is funny is that the state just got a huge contract to manufacture solar panels. We'll see if that fact will pressure the public service commission to make solar affordable for its residents. It has been the progressive push since the eighties for clean energy that has allowed solar technology to develop. Back then only the "hippies" had solar power and they paid dearly for it. And the push for EVs has driven the advanced technology for home systems because of the demand created to home charge those EVs. Those darn liberals! My conservative state doesn't provide adequate charging stations, so if I wanted an EV, I'd have to charge it at home, but heaven help me if I wander past my range! The energy credits we get for going solar are the results of federal legislation pushed by "liberals". Darn them!! I don't understand why it should be framed as a liberal or conservative issue. Going solar is for people who want freedom from centralized power, corporations who hold monopolies and have refused to develop clean energy and gouge customers if they use it in spite of the corps. and people who want a clean rational way to be self sustaining. You are right, these systems give us freedom to have power that we create, allow us to store that power, and use the transfer switch when rates are low to manage our electrical needs, bypassing the behind the times rules and regulations designed to protect the old energy barons.

    Unlike fuel-based generators, batteries don't like freezing weather or excessive heat. You may need to design your storage system with insulation and temperature controls to ensure that the equipment remains within optimum temperature range. I have recently invested in some smaller units by EcoFlow and Anker that are quite portable.

And you're going to need those solar panels in order to keep it going. We had that tornado come down through here and Catoosa that one year we was out for a couple of days or that ice storm we had. ! Sure would have came in handy then ! - something like that however would be a little hard for somebody on a fixed income to be able to afford. !

  • @SW-Video
    @SW-Video Рік тому +3

    Everyone should have some kind of back up power. Like you mentioned, what type might depend on where you live. Nothing says you can't have different sources of power. Like the house might use a 12KW propane or natural gas or diesel generator while a shop or other working area might benefit from battery backup and solar, especially in sunny parts of the country. The Generac type systems are amazingly quiet too. With a 500 gal propane tank, it will run for a long time but filling that tank back up will leave a hole in the wallet for a while.

    I can understand saving money with this system. Never know what people have in their freezers, or fridge. Ok I get that part. I think it makes more sense to put up a wind generator. (As simple as a alternator from a car) with a tower and blades. If there’s a storm coming, the wind is blowing. Usually 2-3 days later too. Not sure the cost out weights the benefit , when wind in that moment is more consistent.

    Living in ap.n apartment I am limited in what I can have but this just might work for me if the apartment complex doesn't have a problem with it. I considered going off grid using solar when I owned my home but being on disability it was just too expensive. If something happened and I got lucky and could have my own home again I would use solar with a backup generator because storms cause damage to solar panels which would reduce or stop them working temporarily. Like this set up and with a freezer full of food and a stocked refrigerator plus any medical equipment used by some people is is a great thing to have.
