so far I have installed… 9 – 15 Watt 12 Volt amorphous type solar panels 4 deep cycle batteries Sunforce Charge 10 amp digital controller TP-500W Grid Tie power Inverter 1 1000 watt power inverter 1 400 watt power inverter 1 100 watt power inverter Items not yet hooked up are.. 2 X 12V 200 Watt Polychristalline solar panels AIMS Power 12V Solar Charge Controller 30 Amp 400 Watt
@BryanComedyTV yep i will be doing that but later im going to put 500 watts of pannels in the yard and then move to the roof for 500 more, but this is all future ideas.

Peace and Love!
Wow… seems like a pretty complicated system… but I suppose its much cheaper to do it yourself than have it done professionaly?
very cool man, solar power FTW!!
this is great!
Man, with all the power you’re saving with the solar panels & curly bulbs, I’m going to have to run all my appliances 24\7 for like a month to make up for your slack
lol
if only we could convert energy as efficiently as plants/photosynthesis!
Great setup your hooked.good thing its a good addiction.keep us updated.TAKE CARE
THIS is my goal !!!!!
This is just awesome sweetie…. I’m envious.. and this is fun to watch. This seems quite an investment but worth it in the long run. how much is invested so far just as an idea? I would like to play for something like that
Totally cool. I don’t understand all the other stuff (batteries) What does it power? Your entire electricity for your home? Technical ooooo. Good for you. That’s a very cool thing to do. Good luck with your endeavor.
so what will you use the solar panels to power?
sweet video!
@mrBrianlovesmovies right now the batteries are powering lights at night, but when all is said and done and i get in the other 4 solar panels i will be supplementing energy for the appliances that are running during the day and at night i will running the lights from battery power.
@chrisbogdan yep its a lot cheaper hehe.. the hardiest part is figuring out how much battery power you need at night to run things for an amount of time.
@Katfellow haha to funny!
@cheesestr4wz its definitely a fun project.. although it has taken a lot of time away from other things like my video making and such.. but well worth it.. I’m enjoying it.
@Ishkiia well I will make a video on it and break things down soon.. I bought a kit to start with… I know a lot more about it now and I would defiantly buy it in parts and just put it all together.. at the moment i have about $1650 in it, but I’m fixing to spend another $2000 to get to the power rating I want.. its a lot cheaper to install it yourself and buy all the stuff yourself. than having a company do it.
@mindya12 the batteries power lights at night and the panels only supplement the power I use during the day though that device called a grid tie. so it just powers your power bill because you are creating power for things running in your home.. a system to power everything in the house is way more expensive. its just a fun project.
This is amazing! I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. I wish we could all do this but it seems complicated and very expensive to o.
@nx2overide sweet! going green!
@nx2overide I bet its lots of fun. cool. keep up the good work.
Nice system, I’m an electrician and believe me when I say your project really got my gears spinning. I have lots of questions and comments and not enough space to do it.
I like your wood, but why don’t you use steel shelving? You can get it pretty cheaply from office supply stores.
@nomoreremakes well thats what I’m going to do eventually but i spent all my doe on the panels and stuff..I’m looking next month to get some nice shelves.
totally cool. think i might try it
