TINY HOME & shed SYSTEMS

Typically in a tiny home or shed, you will need to power LED lights, charge phones, run a laptop, perhaps a water pump and maybe a fridge. This setup is unlikely to use more than 2kw at any one time and space may be at a premium.

A 24v system can use smaller cabling, and a smaller charge controller for a given PV array, and our suggestion opposite uses 2kw of PV, a 2kw Multiplus Inverter/Charger, to give you the option of powering from a generator or other external source should the solar not provide sufficient charging, or you want to run something that uses more than the 2kw that the inverter/charger can provide.

You can monitor what is being produced using a bluetooth connection to the SmartSolar charge controller, and see how your batteries are performing using the BMV-712 battery monitor.

Two 110ah AGM batteries in parallel (positive to negative) will give you one 24v battery at 110ah. We provide properly sized cables made up to suit.
