If you’re looking for the simplest and easiest way to build a reliable, high quality off-grid solar system that can power a container or tiny house, you’ve come to the right place. This is a detailed walk-through of the planning and installation of our 3kW – 5kWH – 120V off-grid solar system that powers a rehabbed shipping container. Includes detailed cost breakdown of the entire build using@SanTanSolar Solar Panels, SOK LiFePO4 Batteries, @VictronEnergyBV Inverter, Charge Controller & Cerbo GX, and @IronRidgeSolar rack mounting. We think this is the simplest and easiest way to build a high quality, reliable off-grid solar system yourself.
