In the course of planning a solar system with 3 -325watt panels and 4 225 amp hr 6 volt batteries, 2s 2p, I originally intended to install a 2000watt 12 inverter with an auto transfer switch. In the course of shopping and learning, a Victron 3000watt / 100 amp Inverter Charger unit was recommended. Lots of bells and whistles. Another vendor recommended a Spartan unit of similar capacity but less bells an whistles and less $. The 3000 watt capacity seems excessive for the battery bank but I have no experience with this.
Our 2010 Winn. Vista is currently equipped with a 300 watt inverter and a converter of unknown capacity. 4kw Onan. I will be installing a Victron battery monitor in the next few days.
Is this overkill? Worth the ~ extra $350? Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks
