Inverter
This is the EG4 3KW 48V Inverter I bought from Signature Solar for a little over $600.
When looking at options for providing electricity to our first project on the ranch, we considered a grid-tied system. However, we soon realized that it would obstruct the future location of our home and require the use of heavy machinery in that area of the property. Ultimately, we decided to go with a full off-grid solar system. I am happy to say that we made the right decision.
Our off-grid system allows us to power our project without the need for any outside electricity. With the use of solar panels and batteries, we are able to generate and store our own electricity. This has not only saved us money on electricity bills but also provided us with a reliable and sustainable source of power.
For those who are considering off-grid solar systems, it’s important to do your research and find a system that will suit your needs. Look for high-quality solar panels and batteries that will last for years to come. And, most importantly, work with a reputable and experienced installer to ensure that your system is installed correctly.
Overall, our experience with our off-grid solar system has been fantastic. It has allowed us to power our ranch project without any hassle or worries about electricity bills. We highly recommend this option to anyone looking for a reliable, sustainable, and cost-effective source of electricity.

Required Items for a Solar System
Ruixu Battery
A powerful highly rated 48V 100 amp hour battery by Ruixi which I bought for about $1,300
PV Solar Disconnect Switch
This one cost about $43 right off Amazon and is required to protect yourself and the inverter.
Breaker
The Inverter comes with this breaker and the battery wires, although the connections were not compatible with Ruixu's. You're going to need a bus bar like I used.
Busbar
The Ruixu Battery Wire Connections are not compatible with the connector that came with the inverter, so I bought this busbar off of amazon to connect the wires. It came in pairs of a negative and a positive busbar, but I only needed the negative and it cost only about $11.
Battery Rack
Forward looking here being the reason I purchased the rack, cuz I know I will need to expand the capabilities of this system and it's going to need at least one more battery.
Solar Panel Racks
The Solar Panel Racks cost $50 for a pair which supposed to only hold 1 panel. I cheated and made it where it can hold 2.
Bifacial 450 watt 14 amp Solar Panels
The panels each cost $220 and I needed at least a total of 120 volts as required by my inverter. Each panel can produce 38V so I needed at least 4.
