Still wondering why you chose Sungold. Read reviews on none or poor customer service. Familiar with the brand, been looking at choices for a while.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I didn't need any help, so I can't speak to customer service.

[@Doe_Shwaggins]

Probably the most helpful video I’ve seen. I literally had Amazon up ordering as you were building.

I can see you put in a bit of effort in understanding this. I have been off grid since I retired in 04.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Thank you Dave. It is a learning experience for sure.

[@DaveJohnsonad5nm]

@@TonysTractorAdventure just a suggestion for the long term off grid plan, wind turbine. For those long term overcast periods you get there a wind turbine can often fill in the gaps. I'm at 8000' in the southern Rockies of New Mexico and we rarely have long gaps of overcast but I still have a wind turbine for when we do. We get sufficient wind everyday to compensate for reduced charging. In your area reduced charging days are a bit more common. Just a thought to consider in your long term planning.

That is a good idea. Thank you

[@etiennelouw9244]

Nice job, I am a qualified electrician in South Africa and I find it amusing that for us the black cable is neutral. Different countries have different codes and colors. We have single phase as 230v and 3 phase as 480v. I worked in factories most of my life and when a machine is imported I always had to check what's what before connecting up.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

White is neutral for 120v. 240v, blade is L1 and Red is L2. White is neutral for 240v also.

[@spiliarakos]

My friend, an advice from an engineer, you should ground your installations always. Please ask for advice from an electrical engineer on how to protect your installation from thunders, (ground wires needed and switch protection) , reverse current ( reverse current automatic blocker switch) and how they need to be installed in your main system electric panel. You are at this point 100% unprotected from thunder strikes and reverse current that can fry your entire setup.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Thank you for your insight. I did ground the system earlier in the spring

[@earthenergyhex]

very cool, thx

[@jerrytalley802]

I have a LOVE-LOVE feeling for Amazon. I was strictly a brick and mortar shopper, but Amazon is instantly success finding anything, prices are great, return policy unmatched. I’m sorry it hurts small business but we have to live, and save a buck and get good service. Sadly, that is gone, other than Costco, lol.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Thank you so much. I'm definitely an amateur but we try.

[@godswilleni8815]

A clamp meter will be a very handy tool to always check for voltage and polarity before closing your connections

[@BobLester-mg4rt]

Single phase is having a single hot line (120 volt in a home as it is here) two hot line is classified as dual phase (2 hot lines each same voltage) while three phase is three hot lines and that is mostly commercial but can be found in some homes. Will not go into the voltage arrangement as voltave can be diffrent.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I believe that is exactly what I said. Except for the 3 phases. I didn't bring up three phase.

[@Anaconda98]

@@TonysTractorAdventure I enjoyed your video, and I learned much about the solar tracking panels. I'll learn some more and review how this particular panel set up ROI compares with ROI on a stationary (30 ft long) panels. Note: Your two 120 volt phases might need to be balanced with a 'load balancing' transformer in the future, as well as the special focus on grounding from the sub panel and inverters; but i am certain you have already looked into this. I am excited to see your next video about expanding the system. Thanks for the instructional video!

[@matthewknight5641]

I have a big heavy split phase sungold power inverter. 4000 watts pure sine wave. Its been the best inverter i ever had and ive had a lot of different ones over the years. Its just running my minisplit at the moment but sungold seems to be good andpriced good also

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

This one has worked flawlessly.

[@bobcole3852]

Nice job, well explained too and your lazy helper is like mine, laying on her back and enjoying solar... Wondering why did you choose Sungold for inverter?

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

This system was a learning system. I had a basic understand when I started, but now I am ready to build a larger system when the time come. No thought on the SungoldPower inverter. I reached out to several companies to see if they would let me demo their inverter. SunGoldPower was the first to respond. I told them could say anything, and they agreed. It has been running non stop and works great. I think I will use them on my big build. I am building another small test system with a wind generator and solar from Eco-Worthy next.

[@Eric-bh6ie]

Well done sir, im working on my own system n this helped out a lot. Thank you

[@marksanders7305]

Good idea to wrap the Positive terminal on the battery with electrical tape ! Good morning, hello I’m Mark , I’m in city looking at battery ~ back - up system , I’ve got a 3,000W Hybrid Inverter MRPOW 24v 110-120v out 1 phase MPPT , I’ve got another electrical meter like on the side if you’re house to run the inverter to that before going to a double pole breaker , I have no 220v appliances, so if ever needed I would shut off outside Grid Electrical & make my main panel One Phase 120v , I’ve saw a video someone do this , my main BMS is a Seplos 7ss 24v 150A , Mars Solar/Wind Turbine controller, breaker box 120v 100A 18 spaces , Transfer switch , I had bought to much stuff in my unprofessionalism / ignorance in the solar~world ! “ Thank’s for you’re channel ! You’ve explained well ! Like William on DIY Solar !

[@jerrytalley802]

I appreciate how you showed the panel install too. I’m still watching and trying to figure where the wires coming into the panel are from. Looks like it’s supplying 2x 120 volt with red, black, white, ground. The inverter I’m looking at is 120 only?

[@KPVFarmer]

That’s awesomeness!!! This is definitely on the list… someday lol

[@garytrawinski1843]

Great video! If you weren't using the buss bars, would you just wire an extra added battery in parallel?

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

By using the bus bar we are putting them in parallel with multiple batteries. It is extremely important that all of the battery cables are exactly the same length from the point which they are charged.

[@fahrizal7313]

I found this video very relaxing, idk why haha love it

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kurtzxcvb3481]

Highly recommended buying some lightning suppressors out back has the best

[@kurtzxcvb3481]

You can run a jumper so that you can run both legs of your panel 😉 not that you'll probably need it but just an idea I've used that a lot when running small generators I'm working on houses just to jump wire across the top to the other leg

[@NKBC1689]

I would love a video of you setting up the parameters. I got to the point where you started to and then cut out that part. My heart broke 😢.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I have shot away from showing my settings after learning the numerous variations depending upon each system. Every person's system will be a little bit different. Having a different manufacturers' battery for example requires different settings even though they're only slight differences in the batteries.

Did you do a neutral bond to ground in the panel box?

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

In the end. I put down a grounding rod for the system alone. It is bonded to the panel as well.

Nice electrical install.. speaking of the tracker.. Mine still don't\won't lay flat at night..

[@OFFGRID_Trucker]

@@TonysTractorAdventure When I got home today, it was tilted in the correct position, then minutes later, it went the complete opposite way.. then a minute later it went back to facing the sun. I'm a trucker and gone for weeks at a time.. Glad you got it figured out.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

It is all in the setup. It is just doing what it is programed to do. It is so simple it makes it hard. I looked for complex problems to fix. It was all about understanding the time settings. How long does it wait until it moves. I was so frustrated with it at first. Then I figured out how simple it was. I was my own worst enemy.

[@OFFGRID_Trucker]

@@TonysTractorAdventure I understand what your saying. Yep.. time settings which relates to the volts the sensor sees. I think I have then set to about 60 seconds.. I'm guessing that's way too sensitive.. maybe they should be about 600 seconds\5 minutes.?

[@jerrytalley802]

Tony, how has this Sungold inverter held up? It looks like a really nice unit, especially for the price. I wanted to put a permanent setup on my camper, but weight issues already made me change my mind. I want to build a portable power station but this Sungold is 24 volts, now I have to rethink everything. I can hook up 2 batteries in series for 24 volts but need more amp hours. I’m guessing I will need room for 2 more batteries to pull it off. Now I need to see if 4 mini batteries will fit in my roll around box? Thanks

Hi tony I'm thinking about Buying a Sungold inverter charger like yours.could you tell me how loud is the fan ? I'm also wondering how the solar input is working out ?

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

My panel setup along with the inverter runs my travel trailer during sunny hours completely. The fan is not obnoxious but it does get louder as the amp draw increases.

[@mrhalfstep]

I really enjoyed your video and I'll tell ya why. You are using the same All-In-One that I'm using, mine is just branded differently, and you are the only KZbinr that I've found that is using the 25.6 volt, 200 AH REDODO battery. BTW I have learned, through much YT researching on this kind of stuff, that the correct way to pronounce REDODO is Red-Oh-Dee-Oh, if you care. LOL Your video left me with two questions that I hope you can answer, as I'm building a hand truck based emergency backup for my home. I live in tornado country and the power goes out more than once in a while during the summer. I chose to buy finely stranded, silicone insulated welding cable for my battery connectors. After over 40 years in industrial maintenance, I recognized your wires as being something more like the 1/0 AWG, stranded THHN insulated wire used in industrial applications. Have you had any issues with it overheating? I feel like I was being over cautious, since the wires are in open air and are of such a short length, but it would be good to know if the cheaper, though stiffer, wire would work in this application. The other question is about the ground on your AC OUT section. I grounded to the chassis lug, as you did, but I have seen more than one video where the AC OUT ground was jumped over to the AC IN ground terminal inside the All In One's cabinet. Do you know if it makes a difference or not? I gave you a "like" and I look forward to your video on setting up the parameters BTW, if you haven't noticed already, I think you'll find that your manual will state 1400 watts as the max solar, when the rating plate on the side of the unit states 1600 watts.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I talked with the company personnel. I just called it what they called. I figured they knew. Yes, The wire I used works fine. Each wire is rated by the thickness and type of metal. If it meets the current requirement, the it will be fine. The finer wire is easier to work with.

[@0xdeadc0de]

Where do you have mounted/installed your ground (earth)? On the inverter you can use the grid ground clamp. I believe your breakers a little bit to big because your inverter has 3000 watts output (?) at 120v. That’s are only 25A on AC. In your Video are 50A breaker is used to the „outside“. I‘m from Germany and not an American electrics pro but I think your inverter is never able to produce short current to trigger the 50A breaker.

[@0xdeadc0de]

I‘m a little bit to fast with my comment about grounding. You are also connected to the grid.

[@Justinwhat1]

Hello. I have installed the same inverter in the video. The PEAK power is 6000W, or 50A. This is found in the back of the instruction manual. It can deliver 3000W continuously, but a short circuit will draw 6000W. The manual recommends a 40A breaker to protect against this. Also, if the appliances use more than 3000W, it shuts down automatically (between 3060W and 3750W).

[@Thomisshilbay]

You did ok sir ❤☺️

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

Thank you

[@509tilouis]

Hello. I have a question. I'm about to buy one of this to replace an hybrid inverter. The main reason I'm want to replace it is because the fans run continously and they are pretty loud. Does this one have thermal or load fan? Or are they running non-stop? Are they loud?.Thank you!

[@creambasedbus]

Solar ratings are for perfect conditions. Even a small haze will lower the rate. I have only had a few days where I was getting full or better.

[@leehwhiz]

I gave you a thumbs down for doing a number of things that were not code complaint in your 120 volt wiring. Most of that was to do with you conduit installation. NEC 70 covers both the requirements for solar wiring and all other wiring.
