I am thinking that this type of setup would suit running a 2000w microwave on a APC 3000XL UPS with a 48v 102AH AGM lead acid battery bank. Presently, the voltage sags quite a lot. What do you think?

Hey , almost done my solar setup. I need help‼️ 3000 w inverter, 8000 btu ac (800w)... Ac still cuts inverter off when the compressor is trying to come on‼️ Im sure i dont need a more powerful inverter.. Any advice? Would one of these work? Thanks & God Bless‼️

Depends on the size of your battery bank. If you can run it also. If your trying to start with just a couple of batteries it may not start. But a small bank of supercaps may help you also. But you still need a decent sized battery bank to deal with high power starting devices such as your Air conditioner. And a Good Power Inverter that can handle starting surges.

That's so much for the demo. Sir, I need your advance on this... I have a 3000w inverter to power an induction motor through a frequency drive, two batteries are connected in series for a 24v input. How do I connect my supercapacitor on 24v batteries?

Hey- how can I contact you for some advice. I'm looking into using capacitors instead of a battery hooked up to 2Kw solar panels and a charger controller to keep them charged while sun is up. Then to an inverter so I can run a freezer while the sun is shining.

I will tell you that it wouldn't be feasible, You would need close to 1000 of the 3000 Farad Supercaps to have around 2-3 kw of power storage. It would be better for you to have batteries and use the Supercaps along with to help current surges from your battery bank. 1 Bank of 3000 Farad Supecaps will be plenty. The D Cell I show here are 350 Farad each. I have larger cells that are 3000 Farad I use also.

Hello SOSH. I'm new to this super capacitor assisted battery bank aspect of solar energy. I came across your video in my effort to learn "how to". My goal is to provide some surge assistance to the battery bank to smooth out draws as you describe but I haven't found anything that specifically explains how many/big the supercap bank should be based on capacity of battery bank or output of inverters. I suppose it is simple math, but I haven't found instruction. I have six 100AH 48V LP4 batteries and two 6.5kW inverters in parallel. Can you point me to information (or explain) in this regard? Also, I see some pre-Mades with BMS; in what situation would a BMS be necessary?
@SoutheastOhioSolarHaven
Жыл бұрын
Most Cap bank dont have BMS. They are called Balancing boards to bleed off extra Voltage. Also in your stituation. The amount of caps would be probably 20 to 24 depending on Voltage rating of Cap. Most are 2.7 to 3.0 Volts. I would use 3000 Farad each one. Because then you would be around 100-150 Farad, That would be Huge for 48 Volt. They have to be tied together in series to increase the the Voltage rating.

Hello I like car audio and I am new to solar but like it because it seems similar and both want the same end goal, A ton of juice and able to pull from it constantly and Sporadically. Could you pair a couple of xs power titan 8 lithiums their 14v? Also with the caps With these caps mainly your 250? Could you go 14v on solar? And could you also go 0/1 ofc on solor?

I guess their is some sort of benefit but not worth the cost. From what I understand. I wonder if a solar system can power an alternator 24/7? If so you can end up having a continuous 100/200 amps.

The wrong application for the supercapacitor. High-quality capacitors are very expensive. It is excellent for Very Quick charges and discharges such as EV/Train regeneration, air compressors, A/C, Welders, Motors, or tools; I would have used high-amp lithium-ion cells/40E.
