Hey Brad, I like the video. I don't understand why there are no comments but, maybe that means mine will be a special one! LOL! Thanks for making that much easier to understand! All now that I need to do is get the whole volts to amps conversion down. Love, love that little 3 dollar battery saver tip! One of the things that had me most reluctant on solar was having to babysit the system so I didn't take the batteries to a danger point of over use. This makes it a bit easier cause what you see you have, is what you get! Great tip!! Looking forward to watching the rest of your stuff...my wife tipped me off to your channel...she's so good to me!!! we hope to be off grid homesteading within a year.....fingers crossed!

You just have to remember when converting from dc amps to ac amps it uses 10 times the amps in the dc side. in other words if you run an ac load that uses 5 amps you are pulling 50 amps on the battery.

Would you kindly thank your electrician friend for that Ah analogy for me! And thank you for explaining it. If you just heard a brick hitting a pumpkin head it's just me! I'm alright tho!
