Power study with Kill-a-watt
Circuit 1 0.43kw 379hrs 1.134w/hour
Circuit 2 0.22kw 300hrs 0.733w/hour
Circuit 3 0.78kw 312hrs 2.5w/hour
Total 4.367w/hour
Total rounded 5w/hour
5w/hour = 120w/day (120v) = 1A
5w/hour = 120w/day (12v) = 10A
Efficiency of inverter (theoretical) at 90% and then rounded down to 85% = draw of 11.76A, rounded up = 12A/day
Power bank - four 6v 230AH batteries (two pairs of batteries each connected in series then connected in parallel) = 460AH
Maximum discharge of battery bank wanted to be no greater than 30% = 138AH, round down = 120AH = 10 days power
Note – All rounding up and down meant to allow for greater system long term endurance and to allow for the unforeseen.
