Next Proposal

Due to the limitations of our current battery, we can only supply a maximum of 50A. ThIs will limit what we can run on our inverter. Since we don't use the inverter much at all, this is not critical at the moment.

Ideal

This design requires the battery can supply a higher current.

Battery TypeDescription
b01Lead Acid
b02Lithium Ion 3S (11.1V)
b03LIFePO4 (12.8v)


We will be using the b02 setting for Lithium Ion 3Sb03 setting for LiFePO4 4S.

Solar Panel

We have a flexible 100 watt solar panel from AllPower.
