I live off grid on solar only. I need to know how much power this draws. Thank you.

On the fan it says 0.5 amps, 60hz. The quantities are probably the draw when the fan is first turned on. Running the fan is less power, influenced by speed, how hot the fan gets, age, etc. I hope this helps.

I'm probably not a good one to answer this question because I only use this system to charge a 32 amp hour battery to supply 12 volts to a large solar tracker system and to supply power to a small shop where I do most of My electronics work. I never push the system to anywhere near its maximum output. In a typical day it will generate 0.4 kwh and that is a good average output for supplying power to the sun tracker. The Highest power output I have seen is 1.25 KWH in one day when working in my shop for and extended time and I would say that is probably a good average. If you multiply that out to a year it would be about 450 KWH. It also depends on the sun in your area. Here in southern California we have above average sun year round. Hope this helps in your decision making process.

I can't give you any specific technical specs. I am a lay person. However, I have this on my Class B rv. I run an induction top. Coffee maker, lights, tv and DVD player. Holds up fantastic. I have (3) 31 series 12v AGM batteries for a bank. Does very well. If I had 6 panels and 6 or 8 batteries I imagine I could be off grid for days. Panels topped off the batteries on a cloudy and rainy day.

I'm in Phoenix. I have two 250W inverters which produce about 3 KWH / Day... so divide by 2 and you get 1.5 KWh per day. In Cali... I'd expect closer to 1.3 or 1.2. Hope that helps.

never used it. did not have the watts to charge my solar generator. i can't answer your question any ways. you did not say the watts of the power film, or the amp hours of your battery and type. sorry. good luck.

Depends what you want to do. For off grid: if you want to run an electric motor as in fans pumps ac etc..y. ou will need a pure sine wave inverter. Definately use an mppt type charger. And good batteries.The cheapest solar setup would be on grid with no battery backup....just solar panels and appropriate controller hooked up..The first question to answer is on grid or off. Off grid=not hooked to power company linesTh first question to answer is

Not with only this one panel. This is (roughly) 12 volts x 10 amps = 120 watts Look at your electric bill to see the overall kilowatts you consume. Also you must consider peaks, not just the overall usage. In California, solar installation companies and some power companies will help you figure out how much you need.

No This provides 100 watts so to run this many watts would take 7- 100 watt solar panels & that would give you 10 watts to charge your battery under full sunshine. However I am new at this so you may want to consult some other people with more knowledge on this matter.

The same solar panel can be used in an off or on grid system. An off grid system is not connected to the power company and usually stores the electricity generated in batteries for use when there is no sun. The on grid system is usually connected to the power company with an inverter that changes the dc current produced by the solar panel to ac current. An automatic switch cuts off power to the grid if the grid goes down to prevent power back feeding and endangering worker. That also means that unless there is on site storage, batteries, when the grid goes down so does the on grid system.

In full sun mine at times produced 180 watts which = 15amps. But not all the time. depends on the sun.

I am sorry but I can't give you an accurate answer. The generator has never been used. Actually I have never taken it out of its box. But it is still available and I hope someone can answer your question.

I haven't had any problems with power. I forget it's solar so I never check the power level.

I have 14 115ah deep cycle batteries powering a small off grid house. On a sunny day the solar system will fully charge the batteries. I will soon be adding a 400 watt wind turbine to help on cloudy days.

I am not sure how panels would be off or on-grid, but systems are. off-grid require a battery because you don't get sun 100% of the time, and some days are cloudy so you store excess power, on-grid do not because you still have the grid. these panels should work for either.

You can see how much power your using...works as described. I use it to see how much power I will need and then I know how big a solar panel or energy generating bike I will use to go off the grid.

Hello Sharon, Thank you for your interest in our products. The SunSocket Solar Generator has a 250WH LiFePO4 battery and a 100 watt inverter. The maximum power output is 100 watts, with the 250WH battery you can run a 100 watt device for 2.5 hours with no sun. The unit will run some portable refrigerators but not regular full size one. I hope this helps.Sincerely,AspectSolar
