I am thinking i am gonna buy one of this SRNE 24V 3000W all in on one solar inverter and run my 2 freezers in the basement, and possibly have some backup power for a few hours after a lightning storm. Thank you for the video on this inverter.
Looks just great to me Darren . 3000 watts is 25 amps so it looks like your running the total 25 amps or a max amperage of 30 from the inverter and split it between two 15 amp breakers. Love it bud you did very well. The wifi might be resolves faster if you just installed a cheap wifi extender in the room to pickup the signal from upstairs . Amazon under $50 . Top notch bud 👌
Yeah you are not wrong. Today it’s nice but windy and tomorrow a little colder. I wired up my combiner box today with my neighbour and I now have 6 panels hook up in two series of 3. I have another 6 panels to hook up. Where about are you in Manitoba?
Mine just arrived, using it to use while boondocking down Yuma BLM way. I've also bought 2 , 280 W 12V lithium batteries and 6 , 100 W solar panels, question is, Will I be able to increase my amount of solar to keep the batteries up? I'm bringing my generation down for back up, but hope to not have to use it. We're in MB also, Shoal Lake, West of Brandon, so wouldn't mind picking your mind for pointers to make my hook-up go smoothly.
I don't think my last post went through, you'll have to clue me in also on the wiring for your solar panels. Where are you located, I thought Brandon? @@DarrenCharron
I have the same inverter in my camper and i have a ground neautral bonding issue. Not sure whats going on but its kinda dangerous. Hopefully I can figure it out thanks for video and ive learned from experience to keep batteries short qnd oversize the heck out of them

@@DarrenCharron my Inverter will be here tomorrow it's just like yours did u run that ac output ground wire to input ground side that's what I was trying to figure out going into the inverter it self that ground
@@diysolaradventures7894 guys, it's in the instructions on pg 12 middle paragraph. says "ground wire is connected to the grounding screw hole on the cabinet through the o type terminal"
@@sigmabilly i am about to purchase a similar unit, for a novice, I have a similar problem understanding what that means exactly. A video showing how it is connected would be awesome because I have looked everywhere for a video that shows it and cannot find one.

@@DarrenCharron which remogy system? Why not stay with srne? The srne inverter is more capable then any of remogy inverter / controller from my understanding

Darren - how is this unit working for you in 2024? I am looking at setting up an off grid power system in Northern Nevada for our 50 Amp RV service. We would like to be up on the property in the Spring to Fall and drive into work. Since we do not have power up there we will have to build our own system to power the RV. We won't need AC in the summer so the only heavy loads would be the washer/dryer, refrigerator and water heater (we could just run propane - it is a dual electric/propane unit). The only other thing would be a chest freezer (deep freeze unit). Is the unit you installed able to be paralleled to increase 120/240 output? I would have to find a 48v unit - need the performance and prefer 48v to 24v.
Hi The unit I have will not support 240 volt just 120 in. My system has been running great. It does not have the option to do parallel if I was to get a new system that would be what I would go with as I limited with this system. I currently run all my lights the freezer sump pump all the downstairs wall plugs, outside plugs and the water pump on my system.
@@DarrenCharron thank you for getting back to me so quickly, Darren! I am discussing the 6000XP's with my wife right now. It may be the only route we have to take to get ourselves set up off grid. Have a great day and Blessings to You and Your Family!!
All I’m seeing is electrical connections you’re not describing what you’re doing is that a 110 or a 220 how many volts / amps are you bringing in from your panels? All I see is you doing electrical connections?
Your AC panel needs a disconnect by code. Can be an external switch or main breaker in the panel. One tip: never run cable in conduit. You were making things difficult for yourself.
Hi Josue Thanks for tuning in. The inverter works great I have had no issues with it and it has been great especially during storms when the grid goes out my lights are always on. :)
Hi Darren, You have a great Off-Grid system. Around 6 months back I booked up a PowerMr 5.5 Inverter with 4 Turbulent batteries (150Ah) and 460Wx10 JA panels. Your system seems much neat. However, since we both have inverter's with cooling fans you might also have the dust issue. Recently due to cold weather dust and humidity killed many inverters which my friends used. So you may need to have a dust filter sooner than later. I created a small video which shows what I have done. Please have a look and share your ideas. ua-cam.com/video/4sAX6WE0BaY/v-deo.html Another tip for anyone who reads this message. Don't install FLD / Turbulent batteries just under the inverter. It will soon damage the circuit boards. Thanks, Happy Off-Grid.
I think what you should have done was hooked up two panels in series each and then run them parallel that way you keep the voltage down but the amperage up that will give you more power and that won't let you go over the voltage
Nice clean install. Everything is laid out nice and neat.
Thank you!
Thanks for posting this! Nobody else has installed one of these, yet.
because they are chinese knockoff garbage
Looks good Darren! Great set up for the homestead!

Everyone I know who has solar power loves it. Nice video.
Thank you!
Hello Darren good luck. This becomes very addictive very quickly. Series and parallel the panels
It sure does. 😊

That’s awesome I will order one right away I never even thought about a wifi extender I will give it a go Thanks a ton Steve!
Nice setup Darren. That will do a great job suppling power for the house.
Thanks Lloyd!
Awesome to see the Powland inverter in action. I love the setup, Darren. Spring can't come soon enough in Manitoba!

Yes you have lots of room to add to your panels. I run 10 230 watt panels on my system. I am not far from Shoal Lake myself.

I cannot get mine to charge the battery when hooked up to a generator any idea how to fix that?
I have the same inverter in my camper and i have a ground neautral bonding issue. Not sure whats going on but its kinda dangerous. Hopefully I can figure it out thanks for video and ive learned from experience to keep batteries short qnd oversize the heck out of them
If you run in the series and parallel, you can use all four panels
I have that same inverter and same battery but having a issues
@@andreengland2279 yes
I’ve got a similar inverter. Are you connecting the earth from the input? Mine has a screw, now I’m confused!
Ground earth to the screw
with FLA batteries id keep a battery a life saver on them BLS to keep the battery working good
May I ask what type of inverter and where you purchased it. Thanks I'm very new to all this but I want to jump in.

Does that inverter still works?
Mine died 10mths after
It sure does yep.
Since the ac output on them type of inverters only has L and N on the output where did u run the ground for the output ??
I ran the ground along with the ac outlet
@@DarrenCharron my Inverter will be here tomorrow it's just like yours did u run that ac output ground wire to input ground side that's what I was trying to figure out going into the inverter it self that ground

@@DarrenCharron yes that controller has 150voc iirc so depending on your panels, your Pv input won’t be much

Mine does not charge with solar unless I on the inverter and off it
I just received the same identical inverter in today may i ask where did u order the wifi adaptor from ?
Hi, me too :) I would like to know where u got the wifi adapter.
Was also wondering about the WiFi adapter. 😂 Darren- any chance you can share the link with your fans?
Hello, did you say the max solar input is 1400w? that's not very good, 1400w input 3000w output, correct me if I'm wrong.
