Every year as we are bringing up equipment, we pass tons of big boulders so we will grab them and bring them on up to use in the lake or around the cabin. This is what happens when my buddy is backing up and forgets where he temporarily dropped one of the new additions!


On to the electronics....

Wiring up electricity is not my specialty to say the least so I paid a little extra and got my "epanel" prewired. After that it was pretty much plug and play. So easy even a caveman, me, could do it.



Magnum 4400 watt split phase inverter with a midnight solar classic 200 charge controller. All pre assembled as part of the "epanel".


Inverter/epanel/charge controller combo on the left. Sub panel in the middle and a heavy duty, electronic 230v timer on the right.


Timer


690 amp hour, 48V battery bank. We made all the battery cables ourselves out of 2/0 welding cable. It was a little scary making the final connections on this bad boy. It just felt like I was hooking up jumper cables backwards or something. My buddy got way back and I just kind of turned my face the other direction. Luckily I didn't screw anything up!



Wiring needs to be cleaned up but here it is currently.



EDIT: Spelling
