I just tried to purchase the wrong pip from mpp solar I have canceled two other orders as well. I am so stupid that would have been a disaster, I am so glad mpp solar messaged me and told me it would not work. I have been researching backup power systems for about five months and my biggest mistake was not realizing I was trying to copy someone's setup from another country.
In the United States we have two phase 240v in his country he has single. I ordered from ebay what he was using and I thought that's what I need. I'm an idiot it clearly says single phase on the ebay description.
For now on I will be asking before I buy.
So here it goes. I think i need a PIP 2424LV MSD, 7s80p 18650 powerwall, batrium watchmon 7, offgridinthecity has an awesome transfer switch where I could turn on 1 circuit at a time. And would it be possible to have a grid tie like the ABB PVI-3.0-OUTD-S-US run off the same solar panel system it says starting volts 90v.
My wife wants to replace the flooring in the house and thinks this is stupid. But if I can keep it to $500 here $500 there I think I could get away with it. She was ok with the wrong $300 inverter I stupidly bought. (I haven't told her yet and I think we should keep that are little secret).
Please help me with this project so I don't burn the garage down I still have a ton of questions and dont know if i am researching the correct answer.
I would also like to say the reason I am doing this. My wife works at home and my daughter has been doing online schooling. We live at the end of the grid and have had 2 power outages in 3 months ( one time was sunny with no wind).
And if it storms we will at least get flickering or an outage. I install fiber optic cable and typically work around 1 to 3hrs from home any longer and we will stay at a hotel for the week.
I would like to have something where she could just flip a switch when I am not there. We also plan on moving within 4 years and I plan on having a house built and taking my powerwall but leaving the system to hopefully increase resale value (at least that's what I am telling the wife). I need the grid tie so I can tell her it is paying for itself. Any help at all would be great.
