Im looking to put power back into the grid and spin my meeter backwards will this work
Why is this dangerous? They are both 110v ac. would the 110 from the house blow out my power inverter?
No. That would be to dangerous.

How to connect from solar panels to battery's and required meters. Or a complete tech drawing in layman's terms. I have (4) 12 volt 1000CA deep cycle marine battery's-(4) 15 Watt solar panels and that's it. Please help
What is the application??
You are missing the voltage rating of the solar panels as well as the desired output voltage of the system. The batteries can be wired together in 3 configurations, to provide 12, 24, or 48 VDC. The solar panels can
Im trying to use 12 volt solar system to power around the house. I have a 12 volt battery and inverter. works well with CF lights. Now i found a AC/DC TV. But the math says it uses more power under dc than ac. DC specs are 12 volts and 16 watts....
12 volts and 16 watts or 120 volts and 35 watts?
P=IE I=P/E
12 volts 1.3 amps
120 volts 0.3 amps
I don't think this is correct labeling. It really doesn't make sense that at 120 volts AC, the unit would use more...
Hello everyone. We are working on a solar charging system for a deep cycle battery, used to power a stock tank heater for our horse. I need to know how many watt solar panel I need to recharge this battery during daylight hours. We live in the...
The best place to ask this kind of question is the NAWS forum. There are true experts there, who enjoy helping with this sort of thing. You will need to tell them the amp-hours of your battery. They're at http://www.wind-sun.com/ForumVB/index.ph p
I am looking for a 12 volt 24 hour programable timer. Something like
the timers you plug lights or appliances into only for a 12 volt
system. I am looking for something that I can hook up to my solar
system. It would connect...
yeah this one will do the trick but it all depends how much you want to pay.
The best if you ask me, as long as you dont mind building kits is one from silicon chips mag, have a look at ... http://www.siliconchip.com.au/cms/A_1077 06/a
Where do I go to find out how to hook them together to make a 12 volt power system to charge or operate 12 volt systems
just daisy chain the positive and negative leads from the solar panels.
Let there be light... and solar electricity
I've spoken with and received feedback from many residents in Drayton Valley who are saying that they have learned something new about becoming more sustainable in their everyday lives. Some people have been doing many of the things I've been writing about for years even. They are thinking about, and already doing, more with regards to conservation (energy, water, etc.), environmental issues (reducing GHGs by walking and riding bikes), and eating and purchasing habits (buying organic, preparing small backyard gardens). Creating your own energy is also included in this list.
Simply stated, renewable energy sources allow us to make our own power. However, producing green electricity is a little more involved than using the sun to heat certain areas of your home.
Parts of a Complete Solar Power System | Crop Circles
In this article, I am going to talk about what each part of a solar power system does, and what role the piece plays in the system. Every component handles a particular role, though you don’t need every part in every solar project. A typical solar power system generates electricity, stores the electricity in batteries to be used later and then changes the Direct Current electricity from the batteries to the same type of Alternating Current electricity that comes out of the wall sockets in your home.
Solar Panels
The first part of a solar power system is the solar panels, which generate electricity using energy from the sun. Sunlight, in the form of photons, strikes the panel, which knocks loose electrons from a layer of silicon. These electrons become electricity and are sent through wires. Many solar cells, each of which generates about 1/2 volt are put together to make a single solar panel. It is possible to generate any voltage by putting together the proper number of solar cells. Building a solar panel and producing your own free electricity is actually pretty cheap and easy. If you’re interested in reading about how to build your own solar panel, see DIY Solar Panel .
