Use a glass drill bit to drill a hole in the window. if you are in an apartment, use a regular drill bit, drill a small hole into the side of the window, and patch it up before your lease ends.

Please when charging with solar panel should it be in DC or AC ?

Can you use a 54.6 8A charger to charge bluetti eb150?

Thanks Ethan.s for pointing out that you can leave the screen on. Its by using the auto timeout setting i believe.

Tell me more about the Television hanging. You let the cat out the hat already, how long are you getting with that setup. I am thinking about doing the same along with an 30 watt usb floor light that I just received from amazon!!

Regular inverters would work much better for high draw items. A couple or 4 of lifpo4 batteries would work wonders. Use the small power stations to feed the big batteries through a chargeverter. Will prowse has a great video on making a mobile powerstation with just about these requirements.

I'd be curious how much one of the all-in-one washer/dryer combos (that use a heat pump to dry the clothes) would use? It claims to use 535Kwh/yr, and it does run off a 120v, 15-amp circuit. It's way more than what you saw, with a gas dryer, I'm sure, but could probably run off a beefy power station or a sizable inverter that puts out a clean 120 volts.

In summer we use our solar powered clothes dry. We just hang them out on the line. And the sun and warm dry days dry the laundry. In winter we have a wood stove. So we hang laundry in the house and they dry out and humidify the air.

Bro why don’t you dry your clothes off solar by hanging your clothes outside in the sun 🤷‍♂️

Man those old Bluettis! There was one in Osaka Yodobashi Camera for over ¥200,000 for about a year after it was obsolete. My AC200Max cost that much! I went to a campervan show and some company had rebadged those and were trying to sell them up as something amazing. The show was really disappointing, I thought there would be loads of solar stuff, but there was only obsolete Bluettis and somebody selling 100ah lead-acid batteries for more than a top-quality lithium.

I have an LG all in one and ran 6 loads through it with a Delta ecoflow pro and 1 extra battery. I charge with 1 KW of power.

Fuck getting the solar to do my washing, I just get my wife to do it.

My solar powered dryer uses 0 watts. Big Oil hates me!

This is kind of an example of why I'm not fond of the medium-small (700w-1200w inverter) class of power stations, there's just too much random crap they don't work with. Either go small (300-600w, which is enough for low draw devices and minimizes inverter idle draw) or go big (1800w, which is 15A 120v AC which means it's similar to what you can expect out of a singular common household circuit)

Most people blame the inverter size being small but the real issue is lack of knowledge on super capacitors or soft start You can run a full fridge with a 600 inverter WITH a super capacitor bank BUT..... Barely anyone talks about this And guess what is wired into inverters... Just guess... CAPACITORS!!!!!!!!!

My washer and dryer use about 1000 watts. on full sunny days, not a problem. that's why i do laundry on sunny days.

I am running four LiFePo4 batteries charged by 2000 watts of solar. For 2-3 years now my washer has only used solar, clothes are dried on a clothes line here in Jamaica.

its me the donald i changed name .i told you ni went through 3 sp 200 panels in 1 year,now my river pro is acting crazy after only 2 years im so disappointed bro i had the backup battery as well 2000 dollars wasted on fartinng around only no serious use!!!

I was wondering about the weight of the load you placed in the washer was going to affect your solar. Thank you for sharing. I did use my All Powers 1500 last week when my electric went out on our GA snow days.

Make a New Channel AskIve Laundry, I'll subscribe, lol

Fyi 110v-120v is with in the national electric code for rms line voltage. All appliances sold in North America are required to operate normally on that voltage range. As a matter of fact, most devices can handle even wider voltage variances just fine. Peak current needed by the device might surpass the power station’s abilities and cause the weird behavior. Thanks for the video bro, keep killin it! Blessings to you and the fam

I have no idea how you remember what is connected to what, impressive Ive.. Impressive. That's some collection of power stations and panels you have. Thank you for sharing.

The startup current needed by those motors is more than those power stations can handle, by a long shot. If I had to guess, your washer doesn't run the motor continuously either, but turns it on and off rather than using a mechanical offset to oscillate back and forth; that's why its power numbers kept fluctuating so much. Our washer is old-school mechanical, so either of my two larger stations or my Licitti box should be able to run it. The dryer is electric, so no dice; we'd be using the sun to dry our clothes, without the efficiency losses of going through a power station. Our great-grandmothers did it that way their whole lives, so I know it works.

The inverters in those units are just too small. Startup wattage peak is too much for the inverter to handle.

I am thinking of getting a GE Profile heat pump washer dryer that would run on solar. No gas out here. My house is weird and my dryer currently vents into the basement 😬 so it would be nice to go ventless. I think I'd lose the warm towel effect though.

Harbor freight has good warranty something wrong with it . Just bring there no receipt just my phone number they replace it right on the spot lol

Uh hell no I was getting ready to order this I’m glad I saw your vid I’ll get the one at harbor freight

I use a propan burner (stove?) for food making and save the power station for better use lol but it was an interesting video i learned from :)

ive in da buildin yall

That’s a huge panel for 100 watts. Holy cow. I have a 200 watt portable that’s only slightly bigger than this.

Do you understand that product that you have?

Get yourself something like an Epever charge controller that can take in over 100V, and use that to charge the 12V batteries you use for extending the run time of your power stations. That will solve all your voltage problems.

Try using a solar panel to buck converter to power station setup to limit the voltage to the maximum rated voltage supported by your power station and you should be able to max the solar input on the power station

You can buffer the panels through some discrete gear before pushing it into the power station. Basically like this: * Victron SmartSolar 150/35 (or the smaller 100/20). The 150/35 has a 150VDC solar voltage limit and the 100/20 has a 100VDC solar voltage limit. I recommend the 150/35. * 50Ah or 100Ah 25.6V LiFePO4 battery. Solar -> Victron -> 25.6V battery -> (25A fusing) -> Power station(s). There will be some losses given the extra DC conversions, but it's a decent solution if you want to continue using power stations. The solar will charge the battery and the battery will then trickle-charge the power station. You can use 10 AWG cabling for almost all of it, but if you fan-out from the battery you'll want a decent 100A or 200A bus-bar and 2 AWG or 4 AWG cabling from the battery to the bus-bar. Generally speaking you don't want to connect the Victron directly to the power station, you have to buffer it through a LifePO4 battery. Usually a 12.8V or 25.6V LiFePO4 battery. 25.6V usually works better (as long as the power station can take 30VDC on its solar input). Use the bluetooth app to configure the Victron. Features: * The solar can keep charging the battery even with the power stations disconnected. * You can connect the battery to multiple power stations simultaneously (since the battery can put out a lot of amps in aggregate). -Matt

Nice... Ordered the 12.8v / 460ah version..... Wished the screen was Detachable....

Thank you.

information OVERload 🤔🤔🤔 i need one of those COOKIES 😅

Happy New Year good to see you strong in 2025!

My man! Love your stuff! When are you gonna get yourself a standalone battery and separate inverter and separate charge controller? Charge controller will give you that extra voltage (super cheap ones go up to about 150V). With the amount of stations you have it would have been more cost effective eons ago. a couple power stations, sure, but man it's like you're a solar farmer at this point having to tend all your solar creatures, lol! Keep em coming! can't wait for summer and more light! Currently only getting about 400 watts on 8 400 watt panels and the sun is trying to peak through some dense clouds.

I just fried a 1000w Lipower LifePO4 power station by over voltage. I was charging an Allpowers PPS with panels that were putting out around 40v. I got done charging the Allpowers and then plugged in the Lipower, but I forgot the Lipower only takes up to 30V. It immediately fried and is dead now. From now on, on my lower voltage PPS, I will mark the input with blue tape to remind me to check the incoming voltage. Costly lesson learned here.

Do you still have and use the 400w bougerv panel? I was considering getting one and wanted to know what kind of max wattage you were able to get

Power stations only take the amps they need and clip the extra. Over Voltage is what will fry a solar controller.

Boy I miss the sun! I am assuming this is an older video. Winter in upstate ny and not many sunny days😢

Use solar to charge the LiFePo

What does 10BB tell you about the panel as òpposed to 16BB ?

Amazing what that little AC-50B will do. I got curious one day and plugged the kitchen fridge into it and it actually ran it!

Choose the cooking device to match the power station.

I would be concerned with running the cooktop on a lower than required voltage, as that could possibly damage it.

Lots of great information! I really enjoyed the video. Thanks so much for the shout out! Wishing you and your family a great New Year!!!! - Katy
