Kit 7 : Large Cottage 24V DC 120V AC

$17,875.90

The Large Cottage Solar Kit 24V DC 120V AC

This system is designed for small to medium-sized cottages.  The increased number of solar panels will provide a serious amount of charging. You will be able to run all day off the solar without dipping into the batteries.  The inverter/charger can be connected to a generator for extended stays at the cottage or for when the weather is bad and the solar can’t keep up. The battery storage can be increased by adding more batteries and some more cables. This is a serious system for owners who have limited roof space but want the most power they can get. The Solar panels pack enough capacity to charge up the batteries, however, after a full night of activities, your batteries will be low. Get to know your system and use the battery capacity carefully. When you leave the cottage, make sure you turn all your appliances off, turn off the inverter and leave the solar charge controllers running so the batteries get a full charge. 

This was designed for:

  • Fridge 

  • Lights

  • Fans

  • TV’s

  • Computers, cell phones, personal devices

  • Radio

  • Power tools

  • And more…

This system will provide power to a wide range of applications; HOWEVER, you will need to keep track of your electrical usage. The batteries will not last forever, so you will need to get to know the system and how long the batteries last. 

For cottagers who are used to having limited power, this will be a major upgrade. For those who expect this to power all their appliances all day and night, you will be disappointed.  

This system will charge your essential devices, run appliances and allow you to enjoy a nice evening with lights, watch a movie and run a fan. As with all solar installations, these panels should be installed in full sun, all day long. Any amount of shade will impact the overall system performance. 

Read the battery manuals to ensure maintenance is kept up, and to ensure maximum battery life.
