Putting the batterij in series would make it more efficiënt
@ecohabs4earth20 күн бұрын
Putting batteries in series doubles the voltage and we would end up with a 24 V battery system. I need a 12 V battery system so parallel is the correct way to do it.

How does this work? Not enough technical specs. Without a battery a lot of wasted solar energy when loads don't perfectly match output, MPPT inverter + now super cheap batteries seems better.

I have done the same thing. You may be wrong about the voltage rating on your heating element. Most tanks that big use 220v elements. You will increase the efficiency tremendously if you replace the lower element with a standard 120 volt 1500 watt heating element. It's an ohms law thing. A new heating element should only cost about $10.

Other than the way you parralled your batteries ,its an easy set up. The parallel wiring is wrong, works but wrong. You should of had a positive coming from one batter but the negative coming from opposite battery. They will not charge equally with that wired configuration you have there. you will kill the first battery a lot sooner.

Good day and thank you for your question! Every county is different - we found out that working directly with the county engineers is the best way to find out exactly what is permitted and help them understand what you want to do. Typically solar is permitted but they do not know much about rainwater harvesting and grey water processing. This is an opportunity to educate them for the wave of the future!
