Hey Guys!
I need some serious help, wife is pis***! Lol. We have had our solar set up for a few months now and she is ready for power!! I have absolutely no idea what I am doing so I included a picture of our set up. We opted for strictly 110v (we basically only need to charge laptops/phones for power needs.)
I sized MPPT to 40, 2x100w Renogy panels currently, did a 40 MPPT because I plan on adding 2 more panels. Have 2 12v 100ah AGM's, power audit gave us 25.44 TOTAL daily AH. We don't need a lot hence why the system was sized small. I read somewhere on the forum that heavy gauge audio wire was good for connecting but I'm hearing mixed reviews?
Main questions are what inverter should I get to convert the solar (DC?) power to useable (AC) power? What gauge wire should I run from battery bank to breaker box? And finally how do I physically connect the wires into the breaker box?
I know these are pretty basic things but I have no experience in this so any help is really, really appreciated! Plus, happy wife happy life
