I've got 2- 150W Mono's, 4- 100W, and 4 - 100W panels on the way. I'll have 8- 12v -100AH AGM batteries, connected to an Aims 4000W-24v/120v inverter/charger. I haven't measured my roof yet, but I think I can get all 8 of the 100w panels on the west edge of my south facing garage roof. I'm thinking of either 6 or 8 and a couple of 12v or 24v screws to lift the panels to track the sun as it moves west. I'll gain a couple of hours.
I plan to add to the overall setup over time. I may go with a grid tie system in addition to this battery backup system, for now what do you suggest. I have 2 small freezers, 10amps, refrigerator 9amps, 12,000 btu window ac 10.5amps. I'm putting LED bulbs in several rooms. I have a breaker box beside my main box so I can rearrange some circuits. I have a fairly large house with 2 central AC units, I'm putting the window unit in the family room window, to try to cut back on one of the main units.
Is there any hope for me or have I completely lost my mind?
