Inverters & Controllers
Explore the essential inverters and controllers for solar power systems. Learn how they help optimize energy conversion and efficiency in your solar generator setup.
When setting up a power system, whether for your home, RV, or off-grid cabin, choosing the right inverter is crucial. Two of the most common types of inverters are pure sine wave and modified sine...
When setting up a solar power system, one of the critical components you'll encounter is the solar charge controller. This device plays a pivotal role in managing the energy from your solar panels...
Solar panel inverters convert the energy gathered from sunlight into usable energy in our homes. Solar panels collect energy from the sun and inverters convert the energy into alternating current...
Although we have harnessed the sun to generate power for more than a few decades, surprisingly few people understand how solar inverters work. Even some solar panel owners don’t understand how...
Since solar charge controllers are so important for a solar generator system, I put together multiple combinations of solar panels and solar arrays from 50W to 400W to calculate the right charge...
Charge controllers are used to regulate the electric current added to or drawn from a battery. In essence, when solar panels generate electricity, the charge controller communicates between the...
Home solar panel installation has surged due to their reduced costs over time in addition to solar tax credits. However, the majority of home solar installations in the U.S. are grid-tied. This...
Recently, different companies producing solar generators have come up with impressive technologies for fast charging. However, it's sometimes difficult to know which of these solar generators is the...
As solar generators are gaining more popularity, the market is getting flooded with options. Although there are multiple factors to review in a solar generator before you make the choice to get...
