I checked the old forum threads and nothing's been added about super capacitors since 2013, so I thought I'd resurrect the subject.
Been checking Youtube about capacitor storage and once you get past the "We want to sell you" and the plain BS claims there are a few people who are actually developing the technology and putting it to practical use. Look up Robert Murray Smith on Youtube and you will see what I mean.
I'm going to order a few with the idea that my panels can charge them and when I turn on something like a pump that has an initial very high starting surge current draw the capacitors can discharge and stop the inverter from shutting down.
So is anyone on the forum using or experimenting with super capacitors for energy storage?
