Converting A Garage From On-Grid To Off-Grid

I just recently purchased a maxed out delta pro system. Not sure exactly how we will set it up yet. We bought 2 delta pro’s, 4 extra delta pro batteries, 2 smart dual fuel generators, the voltage doubler, 2 remote screens, the home smart panel, and 6 400w folding panels. We plan to use the system with the smart panel to reduce or daily grid power usage as well as emergency power. We can also use half of the system in our fifth wheel for off grid camping. We will eventually 3200watts of hard panels to our patio roof at home.

Very insightful videos thanks

Thanks for sharing. I'm looking at doing something similar at a pole shed that has no grid power. I will power with on site generator that I already own to run some lights and couple of outlets. However, I think I will be bonding ground and neutral in panels since it will be only panel in set up.

Nice. Love your videos!

What are your thoughts on the Anker Solix F3800 all in one 120/240v unit? I am waiting on a 240v capable all-in-one unit and like the form factor of the Anker Solix as well.....I feel like even EcoFlow will come out with an all-in-one unit at some point also, instead of having to use two units. Anyway, this idea is making me wait on getting any of these units.

Do you have any suggestions for small batteries that can handle situations where there is limited need for power? I have a small (1,200 sq ft) commercial building. I have not used even 1 kWh in the last year. All I need is to power a garage opener for a big door (16 ft wide 14 ft tall) that is used once a month and LED lights for the whole space for a maximum of a half hour. The utility has changed its policy and instead of charging $60 a year to have power hooked up it is now going to be $330 a year. What would be nice is to have a removable battery that can be carried home easily for recharging. Depending on how long it would take it would also work to take it outside and plug it into small solar panels

Curious as to the difference with this set-up and the one with the attached battery? With the attached battery can you get the 240 amp you are getting with 2 ecoflow delta pro? or is it exclusive only to 2 delta pro. Also, what's the benifit of 240 volt? is it only to input the power into the grid? if that's the case, why even have a generator and go direct from solar to the grid?

I have a question - do each of your 120VAC generators synchronize their frequencies to exactly out of phase such that you can operate a 240VAC appliance?

What work belt was that in the beginning?

Not sure why you went 240 split phase in the garage when I don't even see a 240 double pull breaker in the panel.

Hi Scott, I generally find a lot of good information on your videos and consider you an overall credible source. Why in the world do you shoehorn these expensive ($3k each not including adapters)Deltapros into so many situations? You’re proposing a clumsy installation of two portable systems when you could buy an 8 kW split phase hybrid inverter and 10.24 kWh of battery for less than $5000 for a cleaner, more professional installation with more power and more potential to grow…

So where is the neutral bond in this setup?

From a personal perspective, I don't like the cost, or the single point of failure, that you have with the larger commercially-made power stations. That's why I used a component-based system for my off-grid office setup. As far as this video goes, it made it pretty boring, to be honest. You wired a service panel and plugged two power stations into a 30-amp receptacle. That was very effective, but not very interesting, really.
