EASIEST Off Grid Solar Power System Battery Bank

🔥 WATCH OUR OFF GRID HOME BUILD FROM THE BEGINNING bit.ly/OffGridCabinBuild

The real hero of this video is that shelf!

As an electrician for 50 years, l am quite impressed by your setup. I will use the same setup except I will make individual shelves for the rows of batteries just incase I have to remove one for maintenance or replace. Nice job!!

I love solar technology. Its the future of powering our homes. Off grid power, no power company required.

as a Turkish immigrant if someone would like an example of true American life and family example I will send a link of your channel. you and your family, sir, you are America. Sending blessings.🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸

Thank God you found out about the ground wire 😊

A thing to note to the DIY installer for safety: Not all wiring is rated for the 450 volts mentioned, or even the 300 volts he is using as mentioned near the beginning (after the 4 minute mark). Ensure you use wiring with insulation rated for 600v if you're doing the High voltage/Low current setup mentioned. The code is easy to find online and will help protect you and your investment.

I've seen a lot of your videos, you report without clickbait - I think that's very good. Very interesting reports - keep it up! Greetings from Germany

Just an excellent instructive YT video on explaining all the pieces and parts to an off grid setup. Looking forward to see you grow the solar panel, how you wire them & the finished setup.

As an electronic tech, I've got to give you top marks for wiring cleanliness, a word that may seem odd to some, but it is always (with rare exceptions in audio and RF work) good practice in electronics and electrics for your wiring to be geometrically 'harmonious'. It means a tech can follow it at a glance. It also indicates 'zen' on the part of the installer, and therefore the function is much more likely to be same. A note though on having especially your inverters mounted so high up: they produce a lot of heat. Being so close to the ceiling indicates need, especially in Summer, for through-wall fan assisted circulation, thermostat optional. In the winter, block off the external venting, and channel the heat down to you cats' sleeping area. You can use surplus 12VDC computer cooling fans, (series connect them to the right voltage) and connect them to a thermostat. A cheap surplus house thermostat will work just fine. The inverters et al will thank you, and maximum output will be increased. They work best close to run close to the freezing point. Your cats work best somewhat higher!

What a great system Martin!! I'm amazed, you made it look so easy too.

You have installed a top shelf system which should meet your needs. You're quite fortunate to be sponsored, as the cost is over $20,000.00 for the components alone (copper wire and connectors extra). It's plain to see you have a working knowledge installing the solar array and a strong grasp of the concept, job well done Martin and family, good luck and God bless..

9 months later and I'm hoping things are still going good with this install Martin. you did a great job with this install and with this video!

Good Job Marty. Looks neat and professionally done. I am very interested in seeing the additional 16 panels go up and the complete system demonstrated along with interior sub panel.

Love your solar videos! Awesome configuration and clean facility to house your power plant.

This video made me an instant subscriber. Such a well thought out and concise explanation on the setup. My wife and I are moving to Hawai'i hopefully in the next year or so and we will be fully off grid as well. I might just have to use a similar set up to this. Can't wait to watch more of your videos as you continue your adventures. Cheers!

A very thorough and easy to understand tutorial. Your neatness is also commendable. Thank you so much.

Have to say I am totally impressed with your whole set up. Great job Marty and the simplified explanation on how they work together and the putting up of it all. Great job and great video

Very clean setup, great job 👍

DUDE this was such an informative and well made video!! Keep up the good work on the homestead!
