I have come up with an idea I would like to share. I am putting together a system that would greatly reduce the amount of time I would have to run my generator. (Too Loud)
Here is what you will need;
1) 5000 Watt Power Inverter~DC to AC (The bigger the better)
2) Solar Panel Power Generator 13 Watts Charger
3) 3 Marine Deep Cycle Batteries
4) A Trickle Battery Charger
The inverter requires 2 batteries, it has 4 AC outlets. You use 1 for the Trickle charger, switching between the two attached batteries to keep them hot.
The solar unit is to charge the extra battery. Or you can attach it to the other battery hooked up to the Inverter.
You will need to alternate the 3 as the situation dictates, load, ect. I would recomend marking them #1 #2 #3 so you can keep track of what you are doing.
If you have a generator, you could use it to charge the batteries if we have a few rainy days.
Be sure to follow all instructions that come w/ these items. You can find the first two on EBay. I can post a link for the ones I purchased last night. The last 2 can be found at any autoparts store.
