810 Watt Off-Grid Solar Battery Options |
||
| Choose the off-grid battery option that best fits your needs. (Available at checkout) The size of the battery bank you choose depends on the amount of power you require (Watts), the amount of time each day you expect to run your appliances, equipment and lights, and your location or available sunlight. As a rule-of-thumb, when considering batteries for your 810W off-grid solar kit, use 3 days of autonomy (No Sun) as a minimum and 50% depth of discharge for your battery bank. | ||

Off-Grid System Sizing Starts With a List of Equipment
The size of an off-grid solar electric system depends on the amount of power that is required (watts), the amount of time it is used (hours) and the amount of energy available from the sun in your area (sun-hours per day). A homeowner has control of the first two variables, while the third depends on location. We know we are preaching to the choir when we say conservation plays an important role in keeping down the cost of any solar system, but it plays a much bigger role in off-grid solar. To start the off-grid design process, we recommend you make a list of your lighting, refrigeration, major and small appliances and well as estimate in each case how long you usually use each one each day (Duty Hours). (Don't forget well pump if you intend to run it off the same set of batteries). Standard freezers and refrigerators can use 3000 watt hours each day. A few better models like Maytag MTB1956 18 cu ft can be found to use under 1500 watt hours a day, and cost around $900. Refrigeration cycle time is usually a function of efficiency, but also it is a function of how full the unit is, how often it is opened, and the outside temperature. Typically we use 10 hours as the duty hours for most refrigeration calculations. To illustrate the point, the daily energy use of a R10 high efficiency SunFrost refrigerator will use 13 amp-hours (170 watts) at 70 degrees, but 23 amp-hours (280 watts) at 90 degrees.
When considering the battery capacity needed, first look to more energy efficient appliances. Then we suggest you consider battery capacity (kWh or Ah) to be a minimum of twice the average daily solar electricity generation. For longest life, sealed maintenance-free batteries (VRLA, gelled electrolyte, AGM, etc.) should not be discharged to greater than 50% of their total capacity rating within a 24 hour period.
Minimum suggested battery capacity (kWh or Ah) is the largest battery bank size that the solar array can recharge from 50% depth-of-discharge (DOD) on an average day in December. When we design an off-grid or bimodal solar system when calculating battery capacity (kWh or Ah), we assume there is no other means of recharging the battery bank other than the solar system.
Here are some average home appliance wattages to help you get started on your list:
| Laptop | 50 - 65 Watts |
| Cell Phone | 5 Watts |
| Table lamp | 25 Watts |
| Inkjet Printer | 50 - 75 Watts |
| Clock Radio | 10 Watts |
| 13” CRT TV | 50 Watts |
| 20” LCD TV | 370 Watts |
| Table Lamp | 40 Watts |
| 8.8 cu. Ft. Freezer | 80 Watts |
| Sump Pump 1/2 HP | 500 Watts |

| 18.8 cu. ft. Refrigerator | 600 Watts |
| Coffee Maker | 1000 Watts |
| Vacuum Cleaner | 1200 Watts |
| Washing Machine | 400 Watts |
| Well Pump 1 HP 240V/9.8 Amp Surge | 2352 Watts |

The 30% federal tax credit allows you to deduct 30% of not only the total cost of the 810 Watt Off Grid Solar Kit but also all other expenditures associated with the purchase. Cabin owners who purchase the 810W off-grid solar kit may carry forward the excess credit to the following tax years. However, you should always consult your personal tax advisor.
Blue Pacific Solar has provided all of the main parts you will need for your 810 watt off-grid solar kit, but here are some additional items that your may need prior to installing your home panel system. Conduit, appropriately sized electrical wire, some fasteners and grounding rod and wire. Building and installing your own 810w off-grid solar system is not only the smart choice for controlling your expenses, it may be on the most satisfying DIY projects you ever have undertaken.
NOTE, IMPORTANT 810 Watt Off Grid Solar Kit INSTALLATION: (OK, here is the scary legal disclaimer.) It is the responsibility of the purchaser to ensure that all products are installed and operated in accordance with local and national building codes as specific by the NEC (National Electric Code), UBC (Uniform Building Code) or IBC (International Building Code) and local utility company policy. These codes may vary from city to city and county to county. All off-grid solar installations should be permitted and inspected, where required, by the local inspection authority in the same manner as other equivalent electrical systems. One last thing. It is always a good idea to contract with a local licensed electrician to at least do the final electrical connection of your 810 Watt Off Grid Solar Kit from the AC disconnect to your home utility breaker box. Some local permitting authorities require that a licensed electrician do all the wiring from the rack to the utility interconnect. If you need help with the permitting documents for your 810 Watt Off Grid Solar Kit package, we are here for you. Solar permit service add on is available at checkout.
