Ok, here's my first post:
https://www.solarpaneltalk.com/forum...he-gear-i-have
So I have added an EXIDE 31MDC 115AH 12V Battery and removed all the old UPS batteries. I have it wired as 12V right now, I think I am going to try to find another one and get it up to 24V. (This is an FLA battery?) I do understand that I am pretty under powered right now, I'll address that in the near future.
I am thinking if I get all the DC power supply electronics, I can step down the voltage to whatever I need, and only use the inverter for the AC items I require (right now that's just a Slow-cooker.) I should be able to juggle the AC device usage until I decide how the setup needs improved.
Here are my questions:
Will a 24V 500W inverter be a good starter? 260W was the largest load I anticipate before I do some real testing and get real world usage. Any recommendations on a 24V 500W inverter? I can't seem to find a decent affordable model.
I planned to use step-down power supplies for all the phone, tablets, and laptops? What do I need to know about these? Any recommendations?
