currently only 24 month warranty on their website, canadian one.
how would teh above math work for level 2 charging, completely off grid and independant from anything else? is it even possible? thanks.
This video doesn’t help the daily driver at all. Complete word salad. Average driver commutes 35 miles per day. 1) We want to know how many panels we need to recharge daily. 2)Most folks drive the car during the day so what kind of battery storage system will hold that power 3) can you start charging at 6pm and be ready to go at 6am?
So the answer is hell yeah it's worth it😂😂!
What is all this silly stuff? I need to fully charge my battery from 55%. How many solar panels will it take to FULLY charge my battery during daylight hours? If you people think I am heading out with half a tank to drive 300 miles at 65 mph with the A/C on high and the stereo blasting, you have lost your mind. Do you really think I want to wait to get a partial charge on the way? My time is more valuable than that..
Can it power the fridge in my kitchen?
All these videos and none of them say anything about if you have ac or dc coupled system. They should have separate list for each.
If you pay cash it should pay itself Bach in 5 to 7 years …. No more than that Numbers don’t make sense… Lease is worse …. But cost of laying out money that you could invest vs actual con ed bill is ridiculous . Some say payback of 12 years or even worse 25 years is crazy. I am green but not stupid
That’s why my 47,000 W is on the ground.
That's a serious setup!
@@SolarReviews It takes a lot running heat pumps in the winter.
Your high on drugs because a roof cost little over 10,000 plus taxes in NY just had it done highest quotes were 20,000 $$$ range. Call a places and get a quote on your roof. Stop 🛑 smoking tesla propaganda crack lol 😂
That’s without Solar
You can count me out for 100k roof. Look 👀 at my 100k tesla roof lol 😂 compared to 10k
So 2 1/2 times the battery but only 2 times the duration. Hmmm. And every cooler/fridge n the world keeps drinks cold hours after being unplugged.
Lorus watch maker has manufactured white faced solar panel watches, if on outdoor garden/off grid home solar panels on a larger scale, this progression would show any weather age deterioration more clearly.
Is the point of the story asking why anyone would live in New Jersey?
I just don't see the value proposition making any sense for most people this is a beyond luxury good right now and while its cool to have energy security in case of crisis those crisis are normally the type of thing that would damage a roof.
Great assessment. While a Tesla Solar Roof is a cool combination of new technology, sustainability, and great product design it is about twice as expensive as a brand new roof with a brand new solar system.
Then don’t get one.
Where are you from? Your grid electricity prices seem really high.
Hi there, you can view our EV report here: frontend-cdn.solarreviews.com/solarreviews-2024-ev-solar-adoption.pdf
What about GAF solar shingles
Such a cool product. We're going to be making a video about it once we do all of our research.
GAF Timberline Solar coupled with a PW3 is the way that we will go when/if we go with solar and a BESS.
I decided to not install solar because it was 14 year break even period.
Break even periods can vary greatly based on the state you are in. Hopefully your state gets up to speed!
@IKidTheSolar what are you talking about? Maybe explain yourself instead of just stating absolutes multiple times with nothing to back it up.
I’m not buying anything from Tesla ever. If they can afford to pay their greedy CEO $65 billion they can sell their overpriced junk from China a whole lot cheaper.
Bullshit. Electricity costs are up now. Its hundreds a month to charge an EV. These are all hype for Tesla and EV companies
If you have solar electric and an electric dryer you can charge an ev without adding panels.
I don't believe you! No Chinese company!
I was interested in this unit but I wonder how it can be charged in 7 hours using the car charging cable. Car outlets only put out 120 watts. Or is Jackery saying it can use a 15 amp car outlet? Please advise.
What about chinese batteries felicity srne byd there good especially stackable ones
What if I already have solar panels and I want to add batteries. How do I determine how many batteries to get?

Yes, this is the coolest solar panel at the moment! But the price! Wow! I assume that the price will fall over time and you will be able to afford to buy.
I have two 200w BougeRV panels in the mail right now. I tried a "classic" 120W panel after getting a Jackery 500... and that panel worked ok as long as it was fully in sunlight... but as soon as there was the equivalent of a pea shading it, the efficiency dropped like a rock. After looking around these CIGS panels caught my eyes, and what really got me was when it showed how well it could handle partial cover... the fact that I watched the really crazy videos of the panels being shot, run over, stepped all over and submerged in water after the fact and STILL worked, only made me more confident that the extra money for them are well spent. Personally I choose the version with holes... but ironically it seems as if you need to make the holes yourself you could actually do that without effecting the panel too much :p Not that I would do it, but still.
Can you connect canadian solar to a jackery
This or Ecoflow river 2 pro?
You have alot of good information. I cant watch a video where someone is talking and playing music. Sorry
Really like my Mega 5, but I am surprised how quickly it runs out with only a 11×15 window A/C connected 600-700 watts is dead in 3 hrs, it cost abt $3000
Good research! Can you do a similar comparative video for solar generators please?
Thanks for watching! We're on it. 📽
I need example of the connection today building
Thank you from morocco
You're welcome! Thank you for watching.
Why are people saying lithium batteries last longer than lead acid when Ive seen deep cycle ones in golf carts last like 10 years or so while lithiums lose like half their power in 1?
Lead acid batteries typically require a constant voltage charging profile, where the voltage is held constant and the current decreases as the battery charges. On the other hand, lithium batteries require a constant current-constant voltage (CC-CV) charging profile, where the current is held constant until the battery reaches a certain voltage level, after which the voltage is held constant. Using a lithium charger to charge a lead acid battery can result in overcharging, which can lead to excessive gassing, heat generation, and potential damage to the battery. It can also be dangerous as overcharging a lead acid battery can cause it to release hydrogen gas, which is explosive.
You're forgetting ac2a is designed and geared towards a completely different group of people lol. You won't see any large bluettis being humped into the backcountry & the reason why it doesn't have a wireless phone charger is because one they're not efficient to charge a phone and you shouldn't be playing with your phone in the backcountry to begin with. By the way you can charge the ac2a with solar panels, we charged ours with a 100w renogy eflex folding panel. As for the light carry a flashlight if you are afraid of the dark
2023 with 4 bus bars lol
Are you staying at one house for 20 years?
Well said Ben!
All the talk and what does he have ? Canadian :-) Value .
I’m an actual PWR Cell system has been junk, never runs more than six months without failure. Has failed multiple times during power cuts. It has safety issues with the snap RS fiasco and now my system is down as often as up and Generac only gives me a run around. MY SYSTEM IS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD. This is why Generac has four class action lawsuits pending. My advice is go with someone else
Little bit confusing to simplify things. How about this saying you need 25, 200 W solar panels to power your car for the month you know make it simple
Good video
Thank you for watching!
What does the size of battery you need have to do with solar power? The battery size should be obvious from your power needs in the home.
❤❤❤ great insights!
Thanks for watching 😃
Prior to getting solar in California; heat waves and drought. After getting solar ; cloudy and raining for 4 months.
Ben is the best.
No argument from us on this!
Is there a small DC to DC solution that actually works... ? I only got few panels, but I need the "logic" to tell the car how much it's able to charge, as this can change by the minute.
There is a company called PES solar. They offer the REC panels… Which company would you recommend to work with?
