EcoFlow Delta Pro, Eco-Worthy 100 watt bifacial solar panel wagon! 1500 WATTS

15x 100 watt Bifacial Eco-Worthy Solar panels mounted to a hay rack running gear and powering an EcoFlow Delta Pro.
Mounts are "ECO-WORTHY 45 inch Adjustable Solar Panel Tilt Mounting Rack Bracket (2 Set) RV" purchased from ebay.
Panels are "ECO-WORTHY 100W 200W 400W 1000W Watt Bifacial Solar Panel Mono PV 12V Home RV" and I selected the 2X100W Solar Panel option.
If you have any questions or want additional video more in depth on a certain part let me know. Thanks for watching.

Excellent PV modules on wheels . 👌You’re ready for any SHTF situation . May the solar be with you .😉

[@rnkustomz]

@@defjamsgreen ready to bug out! At approximately 5mph or less so it doesn’t bounce too much

[@NYCamper62]

Good view & demo of those brackets including the way you extended them. Also like how your using a farm wagon to 'harvest' solar. 👍

[@billbradley2480]

I like your PV array on wheels. I have mine on wheels too but much smaller wheels. I purchased used PV solar panels from SanTan solar. I got 240w PV Panels for $48 each a few years ago. They’re producing plenty of power for my needs. I attached my panels to 1/2 galvanized pipe with zip ties. It’s been working fine for the past 5 years. I replace a few zip ties when some break. I move two arrays twice a day to catch morning and evening sun.

Great video, brother. This explains a lot for people on how to wire it up. Thanks for the facebook post as well. I learned a lot off this. Chris session.

[@Electronzap]

Very cool project. Could simply put some blocks under the tires to angle it a bit.

[@rnkustomz]

I thought about that, it would be way easier than adjust all the 10 legs

[@bilumer]

Cool video! Been looking into cheap DIY solar myself!

[@johndoe-eg7le]

Nicely done

[@joehutchens3585]

You can tell that's not wood you can buy today, look how many rings are in those beams! Today's wood that size would have 1/3 the amount of rings cuz we use so much more now. Awesome setup!

[@rnkustomz]

I’m very hopeful this wood will outlast the rest of the trailer components haha. I still have another 10+ of these beams. Maybe another solar project in the future

[@TheTundercat222]

Cool setup i like it...

[@natearrigoni]

Bifacial don't really add much unless they are against a white background. They are great in snow when you need to tilt them to shed the snow fall. Other than those few use cases traditional panels would be better for most.

[@rnkustomz]

@@natearrigoni good thing I get lots of snow in iowa, and this trailer will be placed next to my white garage once I get the electrical done in my basement

[@lawrencedavidson6195]

Very nicely done array. I used to use 100watt panels too, but now use 450 watt panels. If you got two 550 watt panels you would have made more power and save half the space and save on wires and connectors. Nice setup anyway. Greetings from Jamaica.

[@rnkustomz]

@@lawrencedavidson6195 I’ve seen a full 1600 watts with this array, so not sure I’d really save on space, and given the constraints voltage and amps wise on my delta pro, It would be less than ideal for me. Plus big panels like that you usually have to buy 10

[@tlteal]

@@rnkustomz I use two Renogy 550w bifacials and you're right, they produce anywhere up to around 1.1-1.2kw. however, the VoC is a lot higher and they are super heavy. They are also crazy expensive. I got mine for about $750 on one of those super sales.

[@rnkustomz]

@@tlteal I plan to get some big panels when I have the money to do a solid eg4 build, but with me just renting this house I want to keep as mobile as possible

[@tlteal]

@@rnkustomz you do whatever works best for you. Nothing wrong at all with your setup -- love it especially that it's mobile. Just wanted you to know that I've had great success with the REnogy 550w bifacials and they are producing more than they are rated at but they are also VERY expensive unless you can get them on a special sale. I've also read the sungoldpower 560w panels are very good too.

[@rnkustomz]

I have a 50 watt Renogy panel that I like, gonna put it on my boat once my electronics are installed. Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comments!

[@crossroadsworshipcenternew5088]

Great job!! 👏🏽

[@rnkustomz]

Thanks for watching

[@billbradley2480]

I’m thinking about buying some new Bifacial 370w panels from signature solar. But I don’t need a whole pallet of them. If they would sell me 10 or 12 panels at $111 each.

[@rnkustomz]

That’s been my concern too, living in iowa I have to get them shipped, and I can’t quite use a full pallet yet so I’m holding off ordering any big panels

[@dangeroustoman]

I would of used unistrut for the mounting. But i do like the wagon setup.

[@rnkustomz]

@@dangeroustoman I tried looking into that but was struggling to understand the mounting options. I needed this deployed fast and for the price of these brackets/ease of setup I went with it. Might try uni in the future if I can find some assistance on what all I need to order

[@dangeroustoman]

@@rnkustomz just look up videos -- mounting solar panels with unistrut.

[@raygould6662]

I like how you built the rack did you have the hay wagon already and how long is the hay wagon and how far apart the brackets let me know and good job

[@rnkustomz]

Brand of running gear: new idea. This running gear is extendable “reach” I have it set to 15 or so feet, the wood beams are right at 17 foot I believe. How far between the aluminum solar brackets? Or the front and back mounting brackets for the wooden beams?

[@raygould6662]

How far apart are the 2x4s on the beam

[@rnkustomz]

Center of 2x4 to center of other 2x4 is 21 inches

[@creswelllarkai6786]

Will appreciate it if you Can you list everything you used so someone can use as a one stop shopping experience?

[@rnkustomz]

Once i get the electrical install finished downstairs I plan to make a super in depth video. Stay tuned

[@kenastl]

Great idea. How do you move it around? Seems like it may be too heavy to move by hand.

[@rnkustomz]

@@kenastl I’m actually able to roll it myself, though it does take most of my strength. With 2 people it’s very easy to wheel around.

[@rnkustomz]

@@kenastl also I plan to use my 4 wheeler if I ever need to move it more than just rotating it through the day.

[@bstahl1121]

are you building a battery bank too or just using that ecoflow?

[@rnkustomz]

@@bstahl1121 for now I’m sticking just with the ecoflow delta pro. Might get the extra battery module if it goes on sale. Thanks for the comment!

[@Sanibelsnook]

How did you wired the 4 100w panels for the delta 2? Series or parallel?

[@rnkustomz]

@@Sanibelsnook there is another video I have posted that goes over that array. It’s my only other solar video currently

[@natearrigoni]

You want to max series when you can then add parallel. You have 11-60v at 15A. If the open circuit voltage of your panels is over 20v (22.4v for mine) you can only do 2 in series, so you don't go over 60v. So, 2p2s which will give you 24.8v @10.93amaps if it shorts.

[@MarkoPola]

Since you’re running them in parallel, do you have any inline fuses installed?

[@rnkustomz]

@@MarkoPola currently no I do not. I did buy a 30 amp breaker box but haven’t installed it yet.

[@stevesaxton8663]

Your open circuit is 24.5V your amps is 5.2A you said you have a delta pro. Your open voltage is or could fry it. Delta pro solar input: Solar Charging Input. 1600W Max, 11-150V, 15A Max

[@rnkustomz]

24.5X5 = 122.5 VOC. That's 18.4% allowance for voc increase, i was told by many that's enough headroom. What % do you go off of?
