27 volts, ladies and gentlemen, I think I can turn on the big screen.
I am in Australia and have a reasonable range of product around, so expect you will have very different products accessible to you.
Reach out to your local bricks and motar suppliers, especially for batteries. they can be pretty competitive.
This video gives an overview of what is possible; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddOyAK804o0
I can recomment the Victron gear if it is available to you.

start here; https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/
there are several articles there about direct solar and building small/personal/apperment scale solar power, for general usage.
also a lot of other articles that might help you think about solving problem in lower tech ways tha relying on electricity for everything.
Solcast forecast for today (South East 4x400w panels) - 0.96 kWh
Solcast forecast for today (East 4x400w panels) - 0.82 kWh
Solcast forecast for today (West North 6x400w panels) - 1.5 kWh
Solcast forecasting a total of 3.2845 kWh

Ich bin gespannt ob wir die Prognose für #PV heute erreichen.
Bei vielen #Solaranlagen wurde nicht bedacht wie man diese reinigen könnte.
Daher verschenken wir sehr viel #Sonnenenergie
Es zeigt aber auch, dass wir noch viel mehr #Photovoltaik benötigen.
Je mehr um so günstiger wird der #Strom

🔋 Yesterday, a #Solar battery saved @edent@mastodon.social £1.17 by using 3.33kWh of stored electricity.
Total battery savings since August 2023:
💷 £997.63
⚡ 2,954 kWh
FAQ: https://shkspr.mobi/blog/solar-faq/
Anyone here have experience with solar generator kits? The ones that have a small panel array and a battery unit with charge controller, power ports, etc.
Thinking of getting a small one for power outages, occasional bush use, and the looming threat of civilizational collapse.
Tips, brand recs, features to look out for, etc. are all appreciated.

"By 2024, nearly half of all cars sold in China had plugs. Internal combustion automakers in China are suffering or shuttering. And the reverberations are perhaps even stronger abroad. China shifted from an also-ran to the world’s dominant auto exporter over the past five years, displacing Japan, South Korea, and Germany. It shipped more than 5.5 million cars overseas in 2024. Other countries have begun to panic that their own auto sectors could be eviscerated by the competition of cheaper, cleaner vehicles from China. The United States has effectively banned imports from China, while Europe has imposed serious tariffs.
Yet just like in the solar sector, where thin profits and high debts have turned some firms into sprinting zombies, the Chinese EV space is full of failed and failing enterprises. Even BYD, the biggest player globally, seems to be dangerously close to spinning out of control. Its sales over the past few months have faltered badly compared with the previous year, and murmurs about its debt burden lead some to wonder if it too might collapse—even as people around the world are still dying to get their hands on these cars, and other automakers strain to compete.
Indeed, the greatest beneficiaries of China’s renewables revolution may, in fact, be consumers, both inside and outside of China. In sun-blessed Australia, where rooftop solar panels sit atop nearly a third of all households, the country’s energy minister, Chris Bowen, proposed a “solar sharer program” to offer three hours of free electricity on sunny days. Solar and battery systems have allowed Hawaii to close its final coal power plant, and such systems are similarly helping other islands like Jamaica to reduce their need for imported fossil fuels."

Sent the drone up for a shot of my #desert campsite. I unhitched the trailer and dropped the camper off the truck. The portable #solar panel is charging the trailer’s batteries; the panels on my camper roof charge the camper. Still haven’t used my generator this season. I don’t have any close neighbors, which is fine with me.
As you can see, there’s nothing really special about this area. What amazes me is how many people spend MONTHS here. Two weeks is usually enough for me. #RVing #RoadTrip
How and why to make a Compound Parabolic Mirror to get free heat energy from that giant fusion reactor in the sky.
There will be some DC fun the next days. Doubling up battery capacity for my photovoltaic system.
