If you’re looking for a safe, reliable way to build your own massive DIY off-grid solar system at a fraction of the cost, you’ve come to the right place. This is a detailed walk-through of the planning and installation of our 7,200W - 28kWH - 5,000W - 120V off-grid solar system that powers our entire homestead. By piecing together our own system from multiple components we were able to save thousands of dollars. Powered by SanTan Solar Panels, REPT LiFePO4 Batteries, REC BMS, @Victron Energy Inverters, Charge Controllers & Color Control GX, and @IronRidge rack mounting.
