2. Thank you for all that you do bro. Some of the options you’ve built and described were out of my price range but this was beautiful. I’ve been looking for this video basically. You can power a whole tiny house with any of those set ups I feel. Thank you for going in depth on each of the systems, the cost and the actual applicability.

5. I have victron 100v 30amp MPPT- i have a 12 v pure sine wave 2,500w invertor i also have 2 battery chargers one 10 amp another 20 amp, and i have 2 solar panels one is 195watts and i have a bluetti 200D portable panels. I just need to buy a 12,8 batt 300ah . it is only for power outages for my fridge freezers in the garage. I have 3 power stations bluetti EB3A AC 70 AC 180. plus 2 ecoworthy 12,8v 50a and a 12,8v 100ah. for my needs it would be fine for i rent a home so it has to be portable system. i would probably put it on a 10 inch rubber wheels hand truck. hope to build it soon
