my solar install has been successful

i've recently added another 12volt battery, and more panels

i have a 1.7kW in panels system, making a kilowatt hour in 3 to 4 days time

i have 4 panels to charge controllers to each battery, and the batteries are in parallel

recently bought a watt meter cable for the grid tie inverter and that shows i'm making up to 140watt, and shows total kilowatt hours

2 batteries is good because it's making closer to constant current rather than peaks and lows

after dark, lithium batteries would be better than the 2 same 75 amp lead acid

the meter reads over a single watt for the duration of the night

the watt hour figures aren't as high as you'd wish, but because no one has ever been shocked with this install it's highly successful

this is a picture of the grid tie inverter meter, shows voltage at 243 volts shows current at 0.62amps shows watts at 45w, shows recorded kilowatt hours at 17kW/h

the grid tie cable current direction works in the opposite way to your household appliances, and because it's an inverter outputting 243volts your appliances work better, and last longer.
