#solarpanel #harborfreight #100wattpanel
The HF solar kit got me hooked on solar. I learned so much with it. I moved on to different solar panels, MPPT charge controller and DIY lifepo4 batteries. Definitely a gateway drug
What panels u go with ? Thx
Thanks for showing me the right way to use charge controller,I just hooked it up to my brand new marine battery,hope all goes well, keeping my fingers crossed.
I had this in the closet all year and it’s a great starter to solar based on this video thanks
yes you did muffle through it but still got good info. Thanks 😅
*This Is A Very Cool Setup...Smart Thinking!*
I just got mine.Thanks this helped me.
I'm seriously considering getting this setup it seems great for the money.
It's super easy to set up and definitely saves on electricity. The only thing I suggest is getting higher AMP batteries than I got or just get a ton of them lol.
i my opinion the best harbor freight solar review how to use and adjust vid , thanks for sharing 👍
Good job explaining, thank you
Excellent video thanks
I just bought one for our camper and I'm excited to see how much I can get out of my little battery!
It's doing good so far no problems with just a 35 amp hr.
Muchas gracias ,realmente me ayudó tu explicación paso a paso..thanks you soo much It Realy help me alot blesses 👍🙏🙏🙏
Thank you sir
If I remember correctly from owning one myself, the load terminals get shut off at that 10.7 volt perimeter & gets turned back on at 12.6 volts.
Great video, so if I leave the factory settings alone will it automatically keep from overcharging as well? Thks for sharing 😊
I have two of the 45 watt kits hooked up in series...they work great off of snow glare...my 90 watts of panels were putting out 86 watts during the winter storm...oh PS the snow melted off these faster than my other 4 mono panels...so unless its covered by thick snow itll still charge...we got 7 inches of snow and I just brushed one swipe at the bottom, the top never got any on it until it got below zero degrees...they actually put out more in the cold.
I suggest adding the 100Watt Kit and getting at least 2 more Deep Cycle Batteries. I have 3 batteries right now and am going to buy 2 more.
I'm gonna do a video on my new setup soon.
I didn't explain properly...those are hooked in parallel with four 100 watt panels which are in series/parallel...and I have 8 batteries but as you say I may get 2 more before AC season...I did add 2 batteries last week already...now is that as clear as mud, as we say here?
The question I can't find an answer to is what type is the charger controller is it just the cheap one or is it mmpt
@@douglaswindsor120 I think it is a pwm ...I got more amps when I hooked them up with the Epever 4215 ....it was over $200 but it's 99.7% efficient...I got the 40 amp because it can handle 1000 watts of panels and I'll have that many someday but for now I get as much as my panels can make...you might not need one that big, the smaller amp ones are somewhat cheaper...I bought a cheap controller at first for 20 something bucks but I only used it for a couple of weeks...when I changed to 24 volts I got the good one...from what I'm hearing the cheaper ones work fairly well with small wind turbines so that's next...at least I can still use it for something...
nice
Pauliojr , have you messed around with the charge controller settings where it offers options for the batteries you have? It displays initials and the only one that I know what they stand for is *gel*. I have a marine deep cycle battery and want to have the right settings for. Can't afford to burn up a battery.
Thank you I'm advance, SR
I have mine connected to my Range Rover that I rarely drive. Had to change the minimum voltage settings because if the battery drops below 12v, it resets everything on the truck.
Am I able to direct wire the new HF 100w panel and run the 4 panels that came with it at the same time? 12v 100ah Gel battery
Just found this video. And just brought this kit. Now upon taking the panels out of the box. The lights were already on? I thought that’s what it meant. But it’s strange. That like you said it’s getting solar. As I have mine inside as well?
I have been watching just about every UA-cam video on this Harbor Freight 100W solar setup. Only a few of the videos measure the current output of the panels. The only ones that do measure the DC current from the panels show a maximum output of around 4.5 to 4.9 amp. Using Ohm's Law makes it a 50-60W panel setup, not 100W. I've yet to see any video showing more than 4.9 amps under optimum conditions. I'd be interested if anyone has gotten more out of these panels.
if you measure the open circuit voltage of the panels they are between 20 to 24 volts. The charge controller regulates the voltage down to a usable voltage for charging batteries etc. but the raw output of the panels without the charge controller is right at 100 watts sometimes its slightly more.
Hey I was going to use this set up in my shed at home to get some light in there. Can I use and battery with it? I have a battery I put on are pop up camper. It's Ever start 12 volt 800 cranking amps marine/RV battery. Can I use that with that set up or do I need the smaller battery? Thanks for the review.
So newbie question this does not work for regular outlet plugs right
So I’ll go ahead and set it up
I think I now understand I can use this to recharge my GoPower plus for instance which does have a regular plug
By George I think I got it thanks
Thanks I was looking to see if a charge controller stops power drain from battery when not charging. You answered my question, now I'm good to go
I'm trying to hook up this panel setup to a Jupiter Pure 2000w inverter but having a hard time figuring how to do it.
Make your own frame!!!!,to set them down in, EZY to move or place them in other places.
Is the main screen programmable? Mine seems to be stopping the flow at 12.9
So from the charge controler to the battery thats the only screwed in wire on the controller so it dont auto charge ??
Good video bro only one that gives clear instructions. I bought the extra attachments to connect a inverter so I connect multiple lights but it doesn’t work. Any help??!
the inverter would run off the battery
How's everything holding up? Any problems since making video?
I have that too, but wheres the inverter video you said is coming up?
It's coming soon. I'm still waiting on 2 batteries to come in the mail so I can power more devices.
@@pauliojr I’ve bought a small 120 watt Jupiter inverter but won’t start is it because the setup only provides 100 watts ??
💥will this controller handle a 100 watt panel ...is it better to have 1 hundred watt OR four 25 watt panels what is the advantage?
I believe 1 100 Watt is just easier altogether
Hi, my friend a got a setup like yours , an I want to ask you. If this will hold a 40watt water pump an 80watt air pump, i don't have any idea how to calculate wattage volts etc, please give me an idea. An thanks again
Voltage X Amps= Watts. DC and AC are ALMOST the same as far as this goes. So together, those items would be 120 Watts total. With 1 Deep Cycle Battery & and at LEAST a 500 or 1000 Watt Inverter would do the trick. Check the links out in the description. Good luck!
how do you connect the inside computer to this? Basically want to use if we lose internet.
You would use a Power Inverter that would hook up to the batteries. You can pretty much use AC/DC Wattage as equals. If you're computer needs say 500 Watts, I would recommend a 750 Watt Inverter minimum or a 1500 Watt to be safe. I believe I have 2 in the description.
Can you use the outputs (USB & Light plugs) without being hook to a battery, but being powered straight from the solar panels?
Good question but no you can’t electricity needs to be regulated and stored by controller.
The controller turns on only when its plugged in to a 12V battery. So it would not be able to send power to the controller outputs without a battery.
How long will a light bulb run without recharging the battery?
I think that depends on the type of battery and the amp hour rating of your battery. The led bulbs that come with the kit draws 1 amp.
Where can I get just the charge controller
Ebay or Harborfreight.com
Lowe’s and Home Depot has best prices on batteries.
The charge controller can not take 400 watts. Otherwise good video with examples.
whats the right answer then
I am having so much trouble connecting the inverter Jupiter that has 1000 Watts into a 100 watt thunderbolt magnum I litterly only had my game system and tv on for probably an hour in increments and then it crashed waiting on your upload how to correctly plug in and use the inverter
My inverter won’t even light up
The 1000 watt inverter needs at least 2 batteries to run correctly, and is EXTREMELY overpowered for what you are running. I run my PS4 pro, my 32 inch Roku tv, and a fan on a Jupiter 140 watt inverter. That 1000 watt inverter draws a lot of amps and is meant for power tools and appliances like 500 watt heaters, or a washer, or fridge. Hooking a 1000 watt inverter to a 100 watt charge controller will not work. You don't hook the inverter to the charge controller. Take the 1000 watt inverter back and get either a 140 or 400 watt one. And 100 watts won't charge your batteries enough to run it either. It will charge enough to run a 100 to 150 watt inverter on a single battery
Is anyone else losing about one volt over night with no load?
Wow don't know who's more confused now me or him.
Just so you know set your charge controller on a metal table is never a good idea.
After you describe the 5 different options on the display of the controller you then go on at the end of video to muffle through the fact that the battery will not get overcharged if left connected to the panels.
Isn't that the Boost setting on the display that does that and sets that protection?
You would be best off describing that fact when you were on the Boost setting earlier in the video rather than muffling through it at the end of the video.
It is called "Topic Encasement". Rule 1 of effective tutorials.
Explaining things once in a video and the again later on in another manor gets confusing. Says the viewer to themselves, "is he talking about what he already talked about earlier in the video or is it something else?"
Quit whinging and make your own video then. This isnt a Hollywood production and you aren't named Ebert. No, it is not the boost setting, The boost setting is the voltage setting that sets the voltage output to the battery for fast charging. Use your next paycheck to buy a clue
Your presentation is sorely lacking. You may have good information, but you put people to sleep.
DSLR panels are junk do not buy these panels one designer connection inside the panel cannot handle 2day crack under entry I've had to redo every solar panel I bought out of that kit I will never buy those panels ever again
