Hello windies,
The system I'm planning/building is to be an off-grid system of solar and wind with a backup generator. Being electrically and electronically challenged, this has been a real learning experience - and not a cheap one at that. The components can be expensive not to mention the cost of the learning curve (no one makes mistakes do they?).
I thought I would share these articles from other builders ...

Input, feedback would be appreciated.

Major mistake with those batteries. 6V golf cart would have been cheaper, higher capacity, and last a lot longer.
His panels are too close to the roof. Not enough circulation. They'll get hot reducing the output, and maybe the life.
Then the whole Air-x thing.
But looks like a well done system. Nice attention to details.
