- This build is intended to be a UPS and back up generator system for my critical load panel. 
I am using the EG4 6000XP inverter and EG4 PowerPro battery. I purchased both from Signature Solar.
I didn’t want to make this a “permanent installation” thus the cart. This cart construction is very sturdy. As mentioned in the video I purchased the 80/20 8080 type extrusion from Amazon and some from Automation Direct. If I was to do it over again I would probably purchase all the extrusion from automation direct because it’s free two day shipping on orders over $50 and slightly less expensive for the extrusion pieces than Amazon. With automation direct you also have the ability to have custom cut lengths of the extrusion that you can order with no additional charge. On Amazon you only have a few choices of cut lengths available to order, nothing custom.

You should be put in jail for not mentioning the cost.
Great work! I also have a 6000XP and Power Pro battery. I just received my bluesun 460w bifacial panels. Soon enough I’ll say good by to Edison!
Very nice and clean build you did there. I built a 3000w backup with 5.12 kWh battery and couldn’t believe how well it replaced my portable generator. No carbon monoxide risks and no trips to the store for fuel if you have some decent solar panels. Started expanding to whole house solar and recently ordered a pair of the XPs. Great job keep going! 👍☀️⚡️💡🔋
That's awesome, and pretty much what I want to do. I have a 10 breaker generator transfer switch installed and want to use a 6000xp as my backup generator. I plan on putting in about 4000w of solar panels to start with, add to them as needed. I was going to do server rack batteries, but my look into just doing the EG4's. Nice work!
That's awesome. I think this is the first portable i've seen with extruded aluminum. Nicely done. And thank you for the details on the build.
Amazing build. One potential add for my future build would be a car charger input. Load this up in a truck (would take some creativity) and charge quickly at a EV charging station. Also, potentially use an EV to charge using newer V2L technology...why not use the 100kWh EV battery as an emergency backup on a cloudy day!
The manual isn't very good lot of things left out
You absolutely made it portable! That’s awesome.
That look nice, but you can build out of lumber or wood, cheaper, 4 wheel flat dolly at harborfreigh 14 usd. Other lumer at hd or wood pallets... needed screws
What settings do you have for grid powering option? Lead Acid or Li Ion? Etc…?
Very nice
Intelligent build and thank you for the video. Very much looking foward to future updates/upgrades/testing and your insights. Thanks again
That is a well planned and built rack. Great work !
wow! I don't know which I like better the cart or the solar. Very informative video.
The 6000xp is rated for 240vac 25 amp as an inverter.
This is great I’ve been thinking of doing something very similar. Thanks for sharing your experience.
That's a fantastic build. Super smart.
Really nice construction and build. Obviously high quality.
It can do 50 amp bypass from grid.
Wow I want one! Nice work sir
