Harbor Freight Solar Panels Wired into my house

[@sreekumarUSA]

Sir, if you are satisfied, there you go. Don’t bother about 44. Bravo, well done.

[@jamesndarlene]

Well thank you. We are very satisfied with this system. Since this video I have added a 100 watt panel to the array and bigger batteries for more amp hours. Still using this same system after 4 years.

[@rontech34]

Hiw is your solar system doing is it still up and running

[@normanmorgens1516]

My friend, you might not be an electrician, but if you installed that entire system just from watching KZbin videos, you are an electrical genius, in my book!

[@jeremydavis2595]

Thomas Edison was not an "electrician" either, but I'm damn sure he started tinkering with electricity! Don't listen to negative, narrow minded people. If everyone thought tinkering & learning was stupid, we would still be living in caves. It's the folks who think outside of the box, grab their own tools & build with their own hands who make the world go around, not the sad sacks of sour grapes who will call you stupid.

Finally someone showing Harbor Freight solar systems practical use and not just some off grid or temporary setup thank you an awesome job

[@MikeAndNary]

I don't know why but I loved this video. The way this man speaks just grabs my attention, keeps me interested and has a very calm and pleasant voice. I also likes the way he thinks.

[@designertjp-utube]

Agreed. Heck I thought he was President Jimmy Carter's Brother who used to grow Peanuts! I'm ready to attend Church with this clear thinking Man and his Family!

[@BobbyFigliola]

So much fun watching older solar vids.... ahhh the evolution of solar...

[@dianajorossano]

Simple? You are a genius and do not know it. You did a beautiful job and your home looks like it could be in a magazine.

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you, you are very kind.

[@Redgascan]

Good job. Tesla would be proud. I've never seen anyone actually hook up a light in their house off solar with the flip of a switch. Genius.

[@3springshomestead45]

Nice video! Wish more people would explain things so clearly and in depth as you have.

[@eddiej.2354]

Exactly

[@ellekate8334]

You are selling yourself short! You are BRILLIANT!!!! Fantastic and affordable!!!! Genius!!!

[@edferd100]

It's great to see that there are Americans out there that can still change their home to "their own code" and not get hauled off to jail! I salute you sir!! ✊

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you.

[@marbbridges]

Someone who doesn't know much about electricity. I'm very impressed and what you did. I have worked on generators steam turbines and transforms for 40 years. Also used to wire houses in my younger years. What you did is very good a lot of work you put into it and it's still very good. In the kitchen where you have your light if it is feasible I would put a ceiling fan combination light. I too have two sets of Harbor Freight 45 watt solar panels old school type and I use it to power my shed good job. When I wire houses in my younger days, my boss told me one thing that always stuck in my mind. Electricity can only do two things and two things only. You can either work for you, or you can kill you. Just be careful

[@gphilipc2031]

You have plundered my mind Son. Exactly what I was considering. Shed roof.

[@jamesndarlene]

Good deal. I didn't want to make any holes in my house roof.

[@jamesndarlene]

well thanks, it has worked out great for us so far.

[@georgegeorge-bu9pb]

this stuff should be taught in highschool,,and every house should have a minimum system like this,,you my friend are awsome,,wish you were my friend, neighbor,,thank you sir

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you! I am going to do a few more this summer on my solar upgrades.

[@rjrestorationstation4402]

Very nice installation. Clean and tidy. You may not be an electrician, but your workmanship was excellent. Thank you for your time to present this information to us.

[@JasonBolte]

Awesome vid! I love your comment "My Code". I totally agree. Do what you need for you and your family. Keep doing what you're doing.

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you!

[@katieshields5380]

Loved this video! You made it easy to understand because you kept it simple. And your home is gorgeous! Bravo sir! Thank you so much for sharing. You've given this blonde the courage to give this a try.

[@jamesndarlene]

That's great, once you get started you will see a simple system really is easier than you think to set up.

[@Kaleinohea-]

I love love love your video, Thank you, Kind sir! You kept it simple and easy! You are an inspiration.

[@sewingmum]

We just did our solar also, couldn't tolerate the SM or digital meter needed an analog. Just got new panels and Fork lift batteries made for solar. a bit pricey but will do what we need. 12 v refrig, 12v TV, 12v most anything you need is out there. Good doing. I learn better when it is simple and electricity. Thanks

[@escaflowne33055]

great video. thank you. love how even though you went the simple route you made sure it didn't junk up the house, very classy.

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you.

[@designertjp-utube]

Hi! Wonderful Solar Video! First one I've seen, in a long time, where you really "hid" the wiring well! Your Home is comfy, immaculate, and beautiful! It sho made me think of my Granny's Showroom Living Room out on our '60's Muskogee Oklahoma Farm. Unlike your place, she had all her fine furniture (and rug) under heavy plastic. Haha, she then told us visiting Grandkids we could only check it out from a view from her hallway. Happy to see you are prepared to go Off-Grid!

[@OhHapppyDaay]

I love your accent and hearing you talk. 😁🤗

[@HEIGHO2]

Deep-south is what it is. 👍

[@Amigatech]

Your video was very enlightening. I made the mistake of asking my local code authority first, and being told "you can't do that". In hindsight, it's MY home, and I should have the right to mod it in any way that I want. After all, I'm not here with plans to sell it.

[@ryandavis4689]

The state always comes up with bullshyt like...you cant do solar..you can't collect rainwater...you cant do wind power...ect... Fuck the state. Any state, fuck them.... We the people. It our land. Not uncle fucking Sam's....we the people

[@gereral1_jackofalltrades]

This is the correct way to use solar. Lights take limited power, tv not much. So to use his system daily actually makes use of the power he gets from the cells. I have an inverter battery pack that I use in the house when the power goes out. It lasts 8 hrs and runs 3 lights in the house.

[@PromisKeeper]

We’re in a suburb working on a solar backup system so our options are limited. Loved your ideas. You are awesome.

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you, I hope it helps.

[@TiSurvival]

Great video, very informative. I have plans to do the same thing, but I will avoid having to use an inverter. A 12v fridge, a few fans, and lights is all I would need. I would like to set up my work shed to run off of the solar and be able to send power to my house in case of a power outage. Thanks again for the informative video.

[@jamesndarlene]

you are right! I wish I had thought of it before I ran my lines underground I would have done a 12 volt system in the house. It would have saved about 5 percent of my battery banks power that the inverter uses.

[@stevencorrea9722]

I hope you put plexiglass over your solar panel. to prevent hail damage. thanks for teaching me, I have learned from you.

[@torquelimiter6776]

Great job Dave, thanks for sharing. .....you helped me out alot.....thank you from the North.....Michigan.....God Bless

[@a787fxr]

You did a pretty good job with this project. I am looking at trying to do about the same thing. Thanks for posting this helpful video.

[@chrischapman276]

You admitting you're not an electrician and I am one of more than 30 years could have smart talked your installation of the wiring and could have been "one of those people" to insult you and be a dick but I'll admit, I would have run the finished wiring differently and would have done things a bit different than you had but then, the jobs I do that you do as a living could be nit-picked to death as well. So... Nice job sir. The wiring on this job, schematically speaking is outstanding. Very nice what you've done with all the precautions and metering you've included has given this sparky ideas from your wiring you've done there. Good job. I just would have done things different but you have made it safe and working to your benefit. "SAFE" is the magic word here. And you are safe there. Nicely done.

[@ronsisler]

You do have a lot going on there. Good luck to you and the family. I've been fortunate of minimalist living and it has been very rewarding. More power to you brother, and safe journeys.

[@papamoore4341]

[@larryperry2094]

Wow the times and equipment have changed. This was a beautiful case of getin'er done. Hope you have upgraded over the years our technology has improved dramatically since the making of this video. Still awesome in my book.

[@larrybertgin4672]

Beautiful home, I'd love to see you expand your solar. You did an excellent job!

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you, I have expanded it some since this video, I have another video where I added a large 100 watt panel to it, and also just a few months ago added new and bigger batteries to the system. Each of the new batteries are 110 amp hrs per battery. Slowly but surely it's growing. LOL

[@michaelstann3390]

Awesome video dude. This is exactly the setup I want to do. I'm still totally new at solar. Haven't bought anything yet. I'm kind of planning what I need to get and how to put it together and this was a good example.

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you and that's why I posted this video. If you do one let me know. I would love to see it.

[@annebeyer5191]

Awesome ideas!! Awesome job please keep us informed!! I pay 450 a month for electricity plus I have solar city panels on my house ! I’m leaning towards your idea

[@jamesndarlene]

That's great! I think you will really enjoy it when you get your system set up and start using it. Lot's of nights we have what we call "an off grid night" it's where we turn off everything that's not solar powered, battery powered, or rechargeable. Not to mention when you have power outages you really enjoy it then. Plus, our kids thinks it's a blast as well.

[@toolhead147]

Great vídeo, gives me ideas how to run my solar. Thank you for sharing just subscribed!

[@noozguy]

Very good video, nicely produced, lots of helpful information. I'd guess you might live somewhere near Huntsville, AL. We had en EF-5 tornado come through in the spring of 2011 that took down all of the feeder lines supplying the city, took a week to restore power. A LOT of people I know have installed similar systems since then, from solar to whole-house LP gas generators in case of another emergency. Your system is simple, expandable and seems quite efficient. Nice job!

[@davidoutdoors74]

Great video, very informational. Thanks James. I’m also a harbor freight solar system user. Thanks to you. 👍🏻

[@realphoto]

This would be a great side business. You should make up the business instructions on how too and then sell it as a business. I would love to have one of these systems in my house!

[@eddiej.2354]

It's been a few years since you made this video and the price of LED'S has dropped. I'm hoping you replaced all of your bulbs to led. Have you ever considered using Golf cart batteries they are fairly cheap but you'd need 8 of em as they are 6 volts. I've been told they are great for solar use. Last I checked they are about $68.+ per battery and they are big so longer run time as long as your system can fully charge em. Back to the LED's in your house use soft white not that horrible Day light white. Thanks for the helpful video and thanks for a perfect explanation. If only all KZbin posters would do the same.

[@jamesndarlene]

Thanks for the comment, and I have updated my batteries and my lights. I just have not gotten around to making a new video to show it. We are still using the system though.

[@jamesndarlene]

It's the 14.2 gray wire that you use for outdoor projects. That way I don't have to run any pipe. The speaker wire is a a thick gauge going to the on/off switch and a very thin gauge speaker wire going to the digital monitor (wanted to keep the drain on the batteries as less as possible). I have been using this system almost a year now, and it's still working great. I would like to have a bigger battery bank though. And I can always build on the system as I get the money now that I have the system set up and working.

[@peterarzberger5451]

jamesndarlene great stuff. thank you for your insight.

[@garyclark6256]

Golf cart batteries are the way to go. Cost more but you get longer life and a lot more amp hrs.

[@michaelbyrd2043]

jamesndarlene I have to admit awesome design on your wiring setup and your panels great information but do you know the resistance Factor of your speaker wires are higher then common voltage wiring I would not be surprised if you were losing a quarter of your voltage by using speaker wire you may want to invest in some true electrical wiring I'm not complaining we're telling you that you're wrong. You did a awesome job on your wiring and setup

[@davestone2088]

Thank you for this video. It's exactly what I've been looking for. 👍👍

[@PHAT4LifeTV]

REALLY GREAT VIDEO! YOU EXPLAINED EVERYTHING QUITE WELL

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you.

[@AureliusR]

I'd also highly suggest ditching the inverter and going with a 12V system, and use 12V bulbs. Then have smaller local inverters if you need to power an AC appliance. Having everything going through that inverter just increases the amount of energy you lose through conversion.

[@gordonwilloughby8793]

It is true that it looses power during conversion. At 12 volts the lights would take more amps but lower voltage meaning that the current would be higher causing more voltage drop over the wire between the batteries and the house so I am not sure it would be more efficient. 12 volt bulbs are more expensive too. 60 watt equivalent 120 volt led bulbs are about 2 dollars. 12 volt led's are about $10 each. I am not sure if they put out as much light because they don't tell the light output as they do in the 120 volt ones.

[@fishhuntadventure]

That would be dumb You’d lose more voltage cat 12v than the inverter uses. And then there’d be no TVs

[@cpamfmdj]

Great idea, great video, very interesting, thank you so much!

[@jamesndarlene]

Thank you for the feedback.

[@wx2833]

Thanks for your vids: I researched this for about three months, and then gave up on it for a while to see if prices would go down and quality would go up. I live in the country and wanted to put in a backup system. Looks like these H.F. 100 watt panels are much better. Could you do a vid on your system parts list. Thanks again.

[@jamesndarlene]

When I get time I will try to do that. Thanks

[@wx2833]

Thx or possibly adding into the discription of this vid would be very helpful .. if easier for you.

Dont buy rip off Harbour Freight solar panels.

[@davidpotter9462]

Great job..I have two of those controllers that I got when my uncle gave me two 45 watt kits for working on his mower...they can be hooked in parallel but since I already have a 4215 Epever BN controller I just hooked the panels to it today...you get more amps with the mppt..I just got two more batteries yesterday so now I've got 8... now if the sun would just come out...lol...out of 490 watts of panels I was getting 20 watts today I got more than that during the winter storm until the panels got about 4 inches of snow on them but my cousins were on rolling blackouts..my aunt called and asked if I had power (she forgot that I had been building a solar setup )and I was like yeah I just made coffee...I was just thinking I gotta get two more batteries so I did...I kind of like how it's doing now..the voltage doesn't move so quickly now..I started with two 19 amp hour batteries that I don't use for power now and now I have 680 amp hours...I have a room in the barn with my stuff so I was hooking the new batteries up and went to go out and a little skunk had found his way into the barn and was kind of foraging so I stayed in and watched TV and then today the sun didn't come out at all...so my batteries are at 25.2 volts and the little smiley face is on the MT50..lol ..I didn't get to see whatever it is going to do..fooey..it does this every time I upgrade something

[@jesusrnieves]

Well done 👍

[@Anjanya1948]

Wonderful video Wish I could adopt you lol

[@docchocobo]

That's a really nice setup I love how you designed it into the house. You should switch over to LED if you haven't already for your main light in the kitchen. We've been running solar in several homes that we've lived in and where the CFL bulbs ran pretty long, the LED bulbs ran way longer. It went from hours to over a day in one situation. An extremely good use of contractor materials. Nice to see someone building something from off the shelf parts that looks so professional

[@braeburnhilliard8340]

For someone without electrical experience, it seems you did an okay job. The PVC you used is not exposure/sun rated though - should have been rated schedule 80. It's also a good idea to run low voltage and high voltage in separate conduits. NEC was a little different in 2014 though. I just hope you're careful with the wiring and keep a check on how it's performing. Good luck with the Harbor Freight stuff. I have a little less confidence in electronics from China. It would also be a good idea to label the switches and outlets on the solar circuits and when you have time, switch the CFL lights for LED.

[@gene4390]

I really like your setup! If you would like to save a decent amount of power and increase your efficiency you can make a slight minimal change to your setup. Right now your 12 volts from your battery must travel into your house though the flip switch and then back out over a long distance of wire. Low DC voltage traveling over so much wire will lose some energy to heat/resistance. To save power what you could do is get a 12V "latching" relay (a latching relay latches to the on and off position when given a quick voltage pulse without requiring a constant voltage to stay on or off). So you solder the relay to be the on/off switch to your inverter. You then just use your existing wire (perhaps set the kitchen switch to a push button) to to briefly power the relay to the "on and off" position and your 12 volts going to your power your inverter don't need to travel all the way to your house and back. Example if your using 12 gauge wire to move your 12 volts to your house on/off switch you could be losing around %10 of all your power do to distance too resistance heat. Here is a calculator to figure out your losses (if it even maters): www.calculator.net/voltage-drop-calculator.html?material=copper&wiresize=8.286&voltage=12&phase=dc&noofconductor=1&distance=100&distanceunit=feet&amperes=4&x=68&y=25 If it would help I could draw you a schematic for using a latching relay on your existing setup.

[@jamesndarlene]

Oh my goodness, I did not know about this and yes, I would really appreciate if you would draw me a schematic for that. Just email it to me. That would be great thank you so much!

[@gene4390]

Sorry I was out of town taking care of my grandmother. I'm back and will do my best to help and answer any questions. I'm not sure I have any way to get your email? So hopefully it lets me post my answer here. Again the idea is to keep power (especially low voltage DC) from running a long distance to cut your waste from heat power loss (resistance). So a good strategy is to use a "latching relay" as a switch for your inverter and to send a small momentary 12v pulse of electricity to "flip" that relay on and off as you need it. Nice thing is you can use your existing wires you ran to your house for turning on/off your inverter to turn on/off the relay hooked to your inverter (see schematic). In place of your on/off wall switch that was switching the 12V to the inverter we are going to replace it with two simple momentary (they are only "on" while you are pushing them) push button switches (links to parts below). I recommend you make a new wall plate out of thin plywood or you just buy a plastic wall plate from Lowes/Wallmart and drill two simple holes in the wall plate for mounting the screw in push buttons. Then just hook up your power lines to the push button switches for routing power for signaling the relay when to switch on or off. A few notes: The thicker the wire (more surface area on the conductor) the "less" voltage drop loss you will have over a distance. However the digital volt meter (and relay if you have to tap negative off the volt meter wall switch) uses so little power that the thin speaker wire you ran is more than fine for both. These are my part suggestions though you can use almost anything you find on ebay provided they are the correct type of parts to do the job. Ebay momentary switches: www.ebay.com/itm/3-x-MOMENTARY-PUSH-BUTTON-SWITCH-DC-50V-0-5A-RED-KNOB-USA-SELLER-Free-Ship/322937165648?hash=item4b308e1750:g:c7QAAOSwqu9VT9kS Latching relay (More expensive than the cheap Chinese ones on ebay. However I like this one IMO as it can handle a lot of amps without heat which will be good if you upgrade to a bigger more power hungry inverter.): www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Panasonic-Industrial-Devices/ADZS12112?qs=sGAEpiMZZMsqIr59i2oRcqKXGSjNb8%2fJVQw7DnMV3Oc%3d My schematic example for wiring your house wall switch to toggle a latching relay on your inverter: www.whiteshepherd.net/pictures/electronics/schematic_relay.jpg Hope this helps!

[@_dave4460]

very nice. we’re in eastern, nc too and run a genny now but solar in the future. i made a distro that’s more convienient but have wanted to hardwire a few outlets (apart from the distro that accepts an rv plug on the outside wall - inside is breakers, outlets, voltage and power indicator lights, volt and ammeter). from there we run well placed 10 and 12 ga drop cords with quad boxes and hospital grade 20 a receps; safe and sturdy but a bit cumbersome thanks for sharing...

way to go good job james

[@wallieormerod2049]

Thank-you sir. Finally useful, easy to understand information. I see where you added 100 watt kit and how many more batteries? And does the solar panels keep batteries charged when sun shines for normal day? I have system but haven't gotten around yet to trying anything yet because could only find negativity information until seeing this, so again thank you!!!

[@jamesndarlene]

Your welcome, and we added 3 more batteries so now we have 330 amp hours of storage. And yes, the batteries do charge up just fine when we have sun, and when we don't since we have two different kinds of panels. If we had even more battieries I think it would charge them up just fine in a day as well. We love our system and are still using it for lights and fans and such. Great for power outages and it helps keep the power bill down the rest of the time.

[@urvesh0607]
