I have over 600 A/H of battery storage in my golf cart. I would like to figure out how to use that. It is similar to those plans that use your electric car battery to supplement the grid in peak load situations. The trick is finding the appropriate inverter.
The reality is that most of the time our long term power outages are in the summer when you should be getting 14-15 hours of usable sunlight. My fridge will hold overnight if I can get it cold in the daytime. I am also looking at a separate system for the pool pump (all DC) that will keep my pool blue. If I have food, cold beer and the pool is OK what else do you need?
