Hi,
We have an outside shed quite a distance away from the house, for which we got sold a solar set from our local electrician shop.
We only want to run a fan (60w , 220v) and a light (5w, 12v). Let's say for 8 hours a day.
As I did not know anything about solar, I was advised. And now I think not well advised as I start to read more and more. The problem is that after a few hours we run out of power, due to the voltage drop of the battery.
So the guy sold us a 60w panel, a 20ah gel battery, charger controller 10 amps and a 1500w inverter.
My thoughts are that the inverter is way to heavy. We would never require more than 100w on this system. So does this drain most of the battery?
What would be the ideal combo here? The calculators and formulas do my head in ????
Thanks in advance.
