Heres my second attempt at a simple battery backup system.
My last attempt was 2x 12v 18ah batteries wired in parallel so i can use 1 charger but feeding 2 mp10s...when the power goes out, they dont run reliably when both pumps plugged in (maybe a voltage imbalance, so ive remedied it by only plugging one pump in)
Anyone see any issues with this new schematic? Or have any better ideas?
Batteries used are size restricted so larger batteries are out of the question.
Main concern is if 300w of heaters are sized appropriately for a 500w inverter and if i ever need to increase to 400w of heaters, is the inverter going to be undersized at 500w?
Still need to accurately calculate run times and total cost but this is all i got for now.
And im sure im overlooking more than 1 thing.
Yes....... thats a sticky post-it note......
