Hi All,
I know that there are some knowledgable types on here that have not only done the research but have actually performed the task.
What is involved in, say, having an Inverter with the guts to do most reasonable things to allow one to go 'Off Line'. One that is plumbed in (to mix my power sources) to take over when the leccky from the tap is not available.
I appreciate the need for sufficient battery banks and the solar to go with that but, how much is actually involved in providing the various conections to enable an on board Inverter to allow one to stay away from the mains.
Is it a big job with many hours of work ( I couldn't envisage doing it myself) so Hrs. Means £'s.
Any workings out on the back of a fag packet, gratefully received.
