    i have an 5'x8' trailer with 15x 12v 100ah deep cycle marine batteries wired together with 3 large solar panels on top. these are connected to a 3000 watt pure sine wave ac inverter which runs power through an extension cable into my house. i'd say probably half my stuff is plugged into it.

    all this power is just being beamed to us every day for free, it's so ridiculous that people pay for it

    • i use the trailer for storing other stuff in as well, you certainly don't it and def don't need one of that size for only 15 batteries. it's nice to be able to move the system though. i take it to burning man every yearscarabin
