Today we are making the SUN work for US. Thanks to #EcoFlow for sponsoring this video! Visit ecoflow.com/?aff=149 to check out the EcoFlow DELTA Pro and EcoFlow DELTA Max. Electricity is important. And having emergency backup power is more important-er. We are installing an Off-Grid solar array with a battery backup in my barn.

A quick note about how this works: while at this point the brand is backed by investors, they’ve continued to use crowdfunding as a way of seeking out open-minded early-adopters of their portable power station technology. Products are already well into production, and EcoFlow plans to get shipments out this fall.

I'm sure you considered this but that little bit of excess you mention when talking about how the panels are covering the draw of the lights, the excess could be sold to the grid, it might not be much but hey I wouldn't say no to an occasional free dinner courtesy of the sun and you would be supporting the case that renewables are exponentially more affordable than fossil fuels in the long run... something to think about

Some KZbinrs get annoyed that they must explain principles or projects multiple times in different videos. But you don’t assume that people have already seen your previous videos, and give a simple yet effective description every time without sounding frustrated. Voice over on point with sound blending back from video audio👍

If I was you Zack, I'd drive an 8-10 foot copper ground rod into the earth just opposite that wall where the battery bank is located and then wire it into the packs so that their ground electrodes utilize that legitimate earth ground connection. Not hard to do at all, especially for you. Bond the ground rod to any water pipes that may be supplying water to the barn as well. That definitely adds a LOT of grounding potential if possible.

A couple years ago I went to a conference about energy and electricity with an emphasis in renewables. There was a large section devoted to Microgrids and some of the companies working on various microgrid control systems. At the time I thought it was pretty niche and it seemed cool but I didn't know if it was as practical as many of them were saying. But now, I totally see it. Not just with your video but lots of others, including Matt Ferrell/Undecided, it makes sense the power of microgrids, off-grid energy, and how they can be hybridized to be way more useful.

The barn should already have a grounding rod for the metal roof, he would just have to find the grounding point on the power packs and run a ground cable to the structure. That should allow any device to detect an earth ground thru the pack.

One important safety note. Anytime you plunge a circular saw you should hold the front part of the base to the work surface and then plunge the saw blade last. This will reduce kickback. You put yourself at risk of kick back by putting the back of the base down first and then plunging the blade. Be sure the content you’re showing your subscribers is safe. On a positive note, keep up the interesting work!

Hi Zack, I love your idea to use reusable energy to power your barn but I'm a bit concerned about the airflow in your battery cabinet because there is no way for the hot air to go out the cabinet or for fresh air to come in. The batteries will probably overheat if you keep them like this and you know that heat is the worst enemy of a battery.

Putting them in a cabinet like this without a fan to suck out the hot air is asking for overheating of the built in inverter... It will ingest its on hot air recirculating it and it will get hotter and hotter inside that cabinet fast and only a little of the heat will escape. Many have done this same mistake with computers... A 2000w inverter will create about 100 to 200w of heat when running at 2000w, + the batteries and solar charger will also create a little heat.

Hey Jerry. I wonder what happens, when you do not draw anything from the powerbanks and they are charged full. What happens to the energy generated in the solar modules? Does it dissipate as heat?
@kingboller516
@kingboller516 2 жыл бұрын
Any power that is not being used by the load or charging the battery gets curtailed - that means it just doesn’t get generated at all. The PV panels are effectively open circuited. This does no harm and doesn’t create heat. However, if you are off-grid but the grid is available, you are just wasting energy that could be fed in for others to use. So it’s not an environmental benefit but a lost opportunity.

Imagine a normal AA battery, when it's not being used, there's no load and no current flow, but there's still voltage on its terminals. Same principle with solar panels, voltage is being generated, but there's no current flow, so the generated energy is not being used for anything (not getting stored anywhere). It doesn't need to go anywhere, just like with the battery. The only difference is, normal battery generates energy from chemical reaction and not sun. When the chemical reaction ends (or sunlight disappear), the generation stops.

Hi, I am from Nigeria. I install solar and battery systems for a living. We usually have ur basic 12 volts battery with watts ranging from 100 to 300. Lithium ion batteries are no becoming more popular though they cost way more. And yes it's quite easy to install panel on roof tops after laying some steel or aluminium rails.
