Many thanks, I read the article and it is absolutlly useful.

I use a AC200Max with 3x200W panels on my balcony since 6 weeks as an additional system. The aspect of loss consumption of the inverter for me ist the most important aspect. Using powerful consuming units with temporarly puttig the AC on seems to me the best use.
For less power consuming units (Laptop, lamps et.) I will trie an additional little pure sinus inverter at the DC 30A Output.
But constant work with little power using consumers in the sysem and the AC Output 24/7 on? I have doubts. Allthough in northern hemisphere with low winter sun and often cloudy.

Hello Thomas,

my configuration with 12*200 Watt panels described in the article works very well as long as the sun comes through for at least a few hours during the day.

Your idea with the additional inverter for the DC 30A output I find very interesting and would be happy if you write after trying out how it worked.

Kind regards

Thomas

Hello Thomas,
yes, i will share my experiences with an external smaller inverter…

Do You know a useful german forum about using solar generators, where we perhaps can share informations or experiences in german with other users in germany?

Kind regards
Thomas
