I have never worked with these types of parts for solar/controller/charger/invertor/generator. I am completely lost.
I need to design an electrical system for fulltiming which will be 75% boondocking. My work is partially done online on and off all day every day. I have started making up a list of what I want to have and approximate usage in a day.
It will be for a used 25?-35? Class C with center bed in the back. I plan batteries under the bed. Definitely want remote monitoring of everything. I am also considering additional banks of batteries to the front as I will be building a desk and couch myself. It would be easy to design things around the batteries.
The electrical will probably cost more than the rig but the electric is something that I must always have at any time when I need it.
To start off with I want to do solar and possibly add in wind down the road. The batteries I have been looking at are 12v deep cycle 100ah. The size and weight(75lbs-86lbs) is something that I am comfortable handling. I would like to go with high output solar panels to get as much out of a small roof as I can. I am not opposed to having multiple systems.
The full blown desktop computer is currently at 650w but I am replacing the PSU with a 400w unit and removing the power hungry graphics card, using onboard graphics instead. I build my computers so it isn?t something that I would give up on easily. Everything I watch on TV is through my computer.
Not sure what sound bars draw but I typically listen to music on youtube up to 20 hours a day, usually through my computer but with a sound bar I can connect the phone to it with Bluetooth and not need to have the computer on for music.
I added in a small TV so that I won?t always have to use the big one. Both will be used for the computer. One or the other, not both at the same time.
I would prefer to get as much out of solar as I can while relying on a generator less often.
Desktop computer = 400w 6-8 hrs per day
48? Flat Screen = up to 100w 6-8 hrs per day
24? Flat Screen = up to 40w 2 hrs per day
PS4 = up to 150w 2-3 hours per day
Coffee = 1450w 90 seconds x 6 times per day
Sound bar
All of the interior lighting will be converted to 12v LED and down the road I plan on adding a bunch of decorative 5v & 12v LED & EL Wire but the loads for the decorative lighting can be on a later system as they are not essential.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
