Questions & Answers

Will this one bundle kit be able to support a house

What I mean by this is will it support a house from the bottom up with 6 rooms and a big hallway with a/c units, refrigerators, lamps, etc.
Asked by: Nana
No. The average house with a 200 amp service panel is capable of delivering 48,000 watts, so a 400 watt system would be woefully insufficient to pick up the whole house. Just one AC unit fused at 60 amps uses up to 14,400 watts and the inverter needed to run that AC is quite expensive.

Does this have to go on top of roof

Asked by: Sue
No. Mine is mounted on an angle iron frame to hold it at a 30 degree angle. It just needs a sunny spot where trees or buildings don't shade it.

Hi, is it possible to charge different batteries so you can have more power with a battery system...

Hi, is it possible to charge different batteries so you can have more power with a battery system in place, ( let's say for example you charge 4 or 6 batteries and interconnected them). thanks
Asked by: polarB
Sure I've got 8 six volt batteries connected in parallel to store more power during the day and then use it all night. Works great.

400-Watt Off-Grid Solar Panel Kit is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 26.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from 4 Star Review Rating provided by a verified purchaser

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Off grid power Unless you're planning on running an air conditioner this unit is perfect. I run this unit with three 100 amp our AGM batteries. During the day when the sun is out it is amazing. At night it runs a ceiling fan, 4 LED 60 W lights and my laptop and television without any problems whatsoever. If you want more power just add another battery or two

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 400-Watt Off-Grid Solar Panel Kit This kit is for the beginner solar enthusiast .... It is very easy to assemble ... It does not come with a battery, but, you can buy batteries (deep cycle marine batteries work well) just about anywhere .... It provides sufficient power to run a 16' above ground pool pump 24/7. ... But, those of you that are looking to power much larger loads should know that this is not going to work. ... The kit does not require any special tools and can be relocated with minimum effort .... I learned enough from putting this kit together and operating experimental projects that, I think, I can build one from scratch ...

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This system is great for peace of mind and performance in case of power outages at home. This is a complete system which is easy to assemble and install using the enclosed instructions. After testing it under a load consisting of a 5.2 amp refrigerator, large TV with a surround sound system and miscellaneous fans and lights, I was pleased to measure that I had plenty of voltage left on my 2 large 12 volt batteries after my 7-hour test. I intend to use this system as a stand-alone emergency power source during power outages in my home in case my small generator runs out of fuel. I love it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Customer service is tops everything was delivered timely and was stored for a week before installed. when I opened box one panel was broken but I went and installed everything and set it up with the batteries I had.. Everything seams to be working fine. Monday I called HD customer service and talked to Amber. She took care of everything as far as replacing panel and having it delivered to my house no charge. I received 5 days later and installed panel. Way to go Amber and HOME DEPOT thanks for the great service - I'll be back!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from good products, pricey it's a good kit, but a bit pricey. you can buy the pieces individually cheaper.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Rv installation Was pretty easy to install. Tech support people were very knowlegeble patient helpful and responded promptly.took a little planning Where to locate inverter and charge controller to minimize voltage drop. How to get conductors from roof to charge controller in basement (I went through plumbing vent roof flange and fished through wall. Others use the refrigerator vent chase. You also have to design your own roof panel mounting system. Was easy, I used short pieces of 1 1/2 aluminum angle to mke mounting brackets and all stainless fasteners to avoid galvanic corrosion. Then some aluminum flat stock for support rods when rotating panels up for proper sun angle. Don't forget to order a few tubes of Dicor self leveling caulk to seal roof penetrations.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product Very satisfied with this system. Powers our hot tub with no problem. Saves on our power bill. Our hot tub is 120 volt so it works well. I have added 4 deep cycle batteries to this system and have all the power I need for hot tub and outdoor lights.
