I know these 48/24/12v solar/wind systems work fine but the drawback is 2.5-20 times the amperage of a poco supply = heavier wiring. Receptacles, switches, fuses and light fittings etc. hard to source, (witness several threads on this subject recently), and IMO an increased fire risk.
Household machines limited choice. 120/230v ac kit needs an inverter.
Folks get seduced by the 'free power', but the overall cost per kwh soars once you depreciate the generator/ panels/ charger/ batteries over their useful life- particularly the batteries which are the achilles heel.
Given this guy's track record, I'd give his batteries 2 years, tops! I can see them now, with chickens perched on them pecking at the crocodile clips!
