First time I 'retired' for ten years (stopped punchin a time clock) I was 28 years old and been bizy ever since. There is no end of positive things to do in the world for the good of you and others.... and yes, sometimes we even get paid in $$$$ for it. Do what you love and you'll never have to feel like you're working again.Comment

You need an inverter that can produce at least 6000 watts surge, to start the motor.
It can be 120 or 240V. If you use 120V, you need a BIG transformer to step it up to 240V and may as well have bought a 240v inverter.
Real Power consumed. My inverter's power readout shows that my 1/2 hp pump, consumes 1,000 watts with 160' of head. There are motor losses, power factor losses, and specs that lie.Powerfab top of pole PV mount (2) | Listeroid 6/1 w/st5 gen head | XW6048 inverter/chgr | Iota 48V/15A charger | Morningstar 60A MPPT | 48V, 800A NiFe Battery (in series)| 15, Evergreen 205w "12V" PV array on pole | Midnight ePanel | Grundfos 10 SO5-9 with 3 wire Franklin Electric motor (1/2hp 240V 1ph ) on a timer for 3 hr noontime run - Runs off PV ||
