The total watt hours per day of energy you ll need.
Running a 1200 watt miner off of solar panels.
Compounding the issue of running heating off solar panel energy heaters are more energy intensive than cooling and air conditioning units.
Then i turned off the cool air at midnight when i usually go to bed.
Figure out the duty cycle.
So if you have 200 watt panels you would divide the daily watt hours 4320 by the wattage of your solar panels times the number of hours of sun.
What you can run on a 300w solar panel under reasonable weather conditions.
Define your peak instantaneous power output measured in watts.
Now divide the daily watt hours by the wattage produced by one solar panel.
Always round this off to the higher number.
For example a weekend cabin used for two days has a duty.
This allows us to run the miner in california with 0 power using excess solar generated power.
Determine which appliances you ll be running at the same time.
This is 200 times 6 which equals 1200 watts that one panel will produce in one day.
This inverter converts ac to dc power.
If you have a 75 watt panel and 5 hours of sun per day you would produce 375 watts per day per panel.
I got my house very cold by running the ac unit.
Remember earlier we established that a 300w panel will provide us with 1800w of electricity or treble that of a 100w panel.
Compile a list of all your appliances and devices and how many hours per day each will be run.
Using the 2400 daily watt hour figure from the above example you would divide the 2400 by 375 and need 6 4 panels.
The other night i decided to conduct another experiment.
Temporary setup antminer d3 on 100 off grid solar power.
