Solar Generator Discussion

[lOOKnGO]

Been researching solar generators.
I've noticed a large increase in price since the last time I researched.
The prices are only going to go up due to supply and the cost of lithium.

 

[lOOKnGO]

Surprised no one has input. Things are going to be harder to come by just from the global dynamics in play.

Check out this article: even if half right, speaks volumes.

Yes, portable power. Used for either power outages or boondocking.

I'd just buy an electric F-150.

These are two that I've done some casual browsing on. I need something to run my telescope "out in the middle of a field". And in cold weather to use heated blankets for the family to keep the complaints down. lol.

It's amazing how nice a heated blanket can make cold weather camping.

What kind of auxiliary plugs does it have?
The wife's jeep has 115 volt outlet, but it doesn't supply enough amps or watts (150watts) for anything more the lights.

Watching countless videos and on line research, I discovered a big sale going on at Bluetti.

I like the idea of having something expandable and leaning towards the AC200 max.

I'm definitely going to take advantage of this sale. I just don't see the prices coming down with the lithium prices shooting up.

Please feel free to jump into this discussion.

Reporting back. We ended up going with an EB series Bluetti for our small cabin and will be getting another for the larger cabin. I'm sold in these things. The small EB will recharge from a 20 percent use (typically a day use ) in just one hour with 2 -100watt panels in series. We also have a AC 200 max for our main home. It looks like the EB series is getting hard to come by and discontinued now by Bluetti. Also, higher end solar panels are also hard to come by. LG got out of the solar panel business. They had a 25 year warranty on thier panels. The prices are going up on batteries too, shop now gentleman.

Yes, my son has one and likes it.

What are you planning on running off the 1000w?

Basic stuff. Outside LED spot light, ceiling fan, tv, inside LED.

I've seen one on "Trucks" that actually came with the Jackery as an option, and the whole thing powered the trailer off a 12v lighter socket.

The whole point of solar energy is to create clean energy in a cost-effective manner. Apparently, that is still not the case.

LOL, self inflicted stupidity.
