Need Planning Help
Chicken coop in remote area. No electricity.
I was planning to buy the following:
1. One 12v (72 cell) panel 160 watts
2. One 30AMP MPPT controller
3. A fusebox. The MPPT load terminals would go into it, and I would put all the above devices on the box
4. TWO 6-volt Deep Cycle 165ah batteries wired for 12-volts. (SAM's club has them for about $100 each)
Does it seem correct?
Please help!
