My UPS/Off-Grid Project

Parts:

 2 X 24v EG-4 LLv1
1 X 24v EG-4 LLv2
1 X EG-4 3 Rack Cabinet
1 X 24vdc 30A 120vac Charger

================================
1 X AmpInvt 24vdc 3k Pure Sine Wave Inverter/Charger (I have 2 now)
1 X AmpInvt 24vc/1700W 60Amp Solar Charge Controller, max voc 150vdc
4 X Rec Alpha Series 410AA Pure (Solar Panels)

I love the Rack Cabinet and exceptionally made with steel casters.
It would have been nice to have 3 options on cabinet sizes: 3, 4, 6 Racks.
The only problem I had was the locking right front caster, once locked I could not unlock it. 

The charger, well I bought the 30A and it came as a 40A  charger.
And not having the ability to control battery charge limits, set by dealer.
This caused me to burn out the generator 2 times.

The v1 batteries - I am concerned about the switches wearing out in the future.
The batteries have been taking anything above .5 amps and pulses quickly.

The v2 battery - I like the touchscreen, it does not like taking a charge of less than 1 amp.
I have had this one for a short time.
While it was working, I watched mostly the cell voltages to check and it stayed equal with the v1's.
So for the EG-4 equipment,
well I have been interested in these batteries since YT videos by David Poz
I like well-engineered equipment.

I bought my first AmpInvt 24vdc 3k Inverter/Charger and used it for over 6 yrs.
After doing a deep cleaning of it, I decided to get another.
I learned one flaw with it.

Check the outlets on the Inverter.
Now I have 2
I recently received the Solar Charge Controller and I am hanging everything on a wall.
I did get to use the Solar Panels with a Chinese-made wind/solar charge controller.
I felt I was pushing it after 20 amps.
That is why I bought the new Solar Charger.
============================================================

I hope to post more on this in the future, I am so happy to rid myself of power bills.
This is only the first start.. wake up world!  Go Self Storage!
Batteries are the KEY
