[QUOTE="CreviceSucker, post: 513854, member: 1804"] Any solar experts got advice for me for a remote area CCTV system ? If using 500 watt solar panel/s that put out 59 V ocv , 48 V max running volts and 11 amps max at short circuit. I want it to still operate even allowing for 4 overcast days. The CCTV components all require 12 VDC regulated and would pull less than 6 amps total with everything turned on , so i shouldnt need a 240 VAC inverter , i can hopefully pull the 12 volt load straight off the charge controller... The load is 4 x cameras , infrared illuminators , DVR recorder , router modem etc ) What percentage daylight hours do we use in winter , and what charge rate can be assumed in case of overcast weather ? What size batteries should i use to get 4 days runtime with the above ? The charge controllers i looked at so far were victron 100 / 15 which have a 15 amp load output and could take either 12 or 24 volt battery connections. any thoughts ? [/QUOTE]
