DIY OFF GRID SOLAR DESIGNsteemCreated with Sketch.

in howto •  8 years ago 

Becoming independent with your electrical energy needs is critical for navigating the coming changes and even though there is a lot to know, a determined person can save tons on doing the project themselves. Here I try to make it relatively easy by share a lots of the information in these 3 videos.

I am still new to youtube here and the presentations may be simple but the information is valuable.

Later I share with you some of the systems that I have installed for the community. (The presentations are slowly getting better)

I now live completely off grid with my solar systems that I have and would be happy to help anyone with questions or system design.

Nice! Keep posting, this is valuable information, THANK YOU!

Thank you!

You are very welcome. I can't wait for what's next.

I have only made it to the end of Solar DIY Basics Part 2, and wanted to add my agreement with your suggestion to connect the battery bank to a charge controller "diagonally" (my words). Positive to the first battery (+)post and negative to the last battery (-)post. I have seen so many systems that were connecting both to the first battery in a parallel bank (mostly for convenience), only to overcharge the first battery and draw down the last battery to near 0 volts. As well (hoping I am not jumping the gun, as you probably cover it in a future video) the size of the jumper wires matters. Bigger is better.
