Thanks George! Yeah those batteries aren't cheap!
Yikes 3300 watts! I'm thinking you would need some serious solar array and batteries to keep that going! For temporary use perhaps a back up battery and charge one while the other is in use?
The drawback I see is for even my small outdoor system, is the fact that my system has to run 24/7, and I need enough battery back up to keep it going at night and for cloudy days. 3 days backup is recommended.
Even a grid fallback system stiil requires batteries.
I'm hoping to get by with 10 watts (20 lpm) for airlift and another 20 watts (30 lpm) for the membrane diffuser in the fish tank with my aquaponics system. I'll replace my moving bed biofilter with an rbc that is low head and turns via the flow coming through the tank. So no aditional air needed for my biofilter.
