Also, if your region have wildly fluctuating grid-power costs during winter, you can time-shift your draw from the grid by charging it when power is cheap and try to offload some power usage to it when it's expensive, to save a few bucks...
I think if I had this set up I'd add some small wind turbines, we always have wind in nova scotia. Cool video I'd like to run the whole house like this.
Thinking this may be just the option for my 83 year old father who lives alone in his own house half hour away from us . We had 150cm of snow last winter and we're unable to get to him . He was snowed I for a week before even a plow went by . This would give him use of a kettle, light and even microwave. Thanks looking into this.
We use a couple of these down at our hunting cabin that doesn't have power (different brand forget what) they work well but I don't really know how well the solar aspect works on it though. I have been thinking about buying something like this for quite some time for our house but I really want to make sure the solar panels work as advertised, good to see a product that holds up to what it claims.
I'd prefer my gas genny. Powers the whole house minus the heat pump and hot water. Someday I'd like to get a EV that can power my home like the new Silverado.
I lose power a lot in Michigan in a suburban area. I really am intrigued. Thanks for sharing.
Looks simple enough for me to manage!

Looks cool
Canning will help when it comes to freezer outage. Never have to worry about power outages
The things that I freeze are easier to preserve by freezing - and they also taste better that way.
