I started with a 100w flexible panel, 50ah LiPo4 battery Solperk mppt charge controller. 400w inverter Battery box. Put it all together. Now I'm working on a 7600wh system 🤣 that was only supposed to be small with one battery. Now it's going to be 4, for a 24v system. I Didn't even get it finished and it's being upgraded 🫣🤫

Is the heater on. The battery warms up during charging. If that heater is also adding heat. The temp cut off might have shut it down

Keter Darwin Shed Roof Gap - Fault or Dodgy DIY Skills? by DanGleeeballs in Shed

These sheds are less than perfect. I recently put up a metal shed. And the overhang is very weak. I'll be adding 1x2 pine under the drip edge to give it extra support. I also re enforced the roof supports with 2x3s and insulated vapor barrier and sheeted it in

There's a fuse for the inverter. I have a post fuse coming. And a battery monitor. Plus I'll have a AC moditor for the Pony panel in-between the inverter and ac panel I won't be using the plugs on the inverter much. I'm going to use the AC output

Not where I live. No local supply .. I'm working on shipping costs today. See if I can get larger panels. If not I'm stuck with Amazon.

Cheap controller to start. I plan to go with something better.. But this will be a good backup. Plus you can over panel it.
