Off Grid Renewable Energy Solar Wind Setup Part2
Posted by admin on Mar 27, 2009
We have 2 Evergreen Solar panels 180 watts each, Tristar 60Amp Controller, 2, 400 watt Air-x wind generators, about 8 marine deep cycle batteries from walmart now. A 250A DC breakerbox from Midnight Solar, Xantrex DR-2412 2400Watt Inverter, and a Reliance transfer switch. So far the system has cost about $6000 with everything overbuilt to be upgradeable with more solar panels as soon as we get some more funding! More videos soon lots has changed since winter has set in. …

want 25% extra power? use a directional solar panel postioning rig to follow the sun. helps collect the sun in those out of position sun moments. low cost. top set up im impressed with this set up. kind regards ps……….. england has very little sun and panels cost double more than anywhere in the world
Thanks for the very …
Thanks for the very excellent explanations about how it is all integrated and implemented. It is very good to see someone doing it really right instead of just cobbling things together. I plan to have a new type of wind turbine up and running soon, so these videos are very helpful. It should put out about 1200 watts max with the alternator I will be running initially, but I may need a larger permanent magnet alternator or generator to fully use all of the rotor power in higher winds.

Hi there! I do have one question.. in regards to the batteries you have wired in parallel… do you have any diodes in between them? For some reason, someone told me that when lots of batteries are connect in parallel you need isolation diodes? I don’t know why but maybe you can shed some light on the subject? Great video by the way!
very nice video, …
very nice video, how long can your system power your house lights if you just go off grid? I’m trying to build a system like yours.
thanks
