This video is the 1st of a 3 part series to show what a homemade portable solar generator could do in a power outage. In this video I plug in compact freezer at 5:00 pm, with the intent to run it for a full day, or until it dies from too low battery voltage. To ensure success I also added 5 or 6 homemade frozen gel packs and a 1 Gallon frozen ice jug to the contents of the freezer for added cold retention. The intent was to see what I could do to keep the compressor from coming on too frequently and draining the battery. Since a compressor doesn’t usually run 100% of the time, I wanted to see if I could decrease the runtime significantly thereby increasing the effectiveness of the Portable Solar Generator. My Portable Solar Generator was built with the following components: 1ea. Cart\Dolly from COSTCO at 1ea. Battery Box from O’Reileys auto parts at to 1ea. 1200W modified sine wave inverter at around or dollars? 1ea. 115ah Deep Cycle battery from From COSTCO at 1ea.
