- This is another of my best selling generators. I sell it to a lot of Farmers and people that want a small backup power supply without spending an arm and a leg to power their frig., watch a little TV and internet, and keep there electronic devices charged during a power outage.

From a Solar DIY builder myself ...I have to say this is a nice Build....nice work ...
I think you knocked it out of the park on this one, great job. I've been on the fence about building a hand truck version of a solar generator, but I like this layout better. Got to love Wago's been using them for years along with ferrules. Your editing on your videos has come along way, keep up the great work.
Thanks a lot for the comments. I am not accustom to talking to myself so, it has been a challenge making these.
I’m in VA so no competition for you. I’d like to build my own, about how much total cost, so I don’t have to look up every piece, thanks. Great build, exactly what I want to do, but I may use a Sungold power 24 volt. Use 2x12 volt mini batteries in series. You did a nice job explaining everything really well, thanks
This build was around $2000.
Thanks so much. I know I can buy some nice setups on sale, but tempted to build one that is modular and easy to repair in case of failure.
Reply: "I recently came across the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series and was really impressed with its features! The massive capacity, waterproof technology, and fast recharging make it a reliable option for outdoor enthusiasts like us. Plus, the smart app control adds convenience. Definitely worth considering for camping trips and home backup power. Happy adventuring!"
You get a like and a subscribe for the extake fan, most people don't include that.
Thanks
This is actually a really really good build and I like how you wired your system including the use of Feurells
Thanks
yes its nice build i build my own but i have breaker for my out let i have 4 out let 2 15A Breaker and one 20A breaker for my plug them i have 12 gauge wire that wire house with i used for my plug so nothing will happend to my inverter from my inverter i have breaker like in your house for my out let them
that is a pretty cool build. nice work
Love how he build it well build i watch lot video where lot people build not finish building my as yet i am building my like how build breaker panel for in house some house breaker panel rate 189Amp i have pure sine wave 3000 watts 110V-120V 60Hz 30A its only one out let i have so 48V DC so am going have 3 out put CGFI 110V ,3 20A breaker one for each out let one for my main power for my inverter with 150A FUSED my inverter come with 4 usb water proof port 4 12 Volt port solar charger 4 12 volt light with brighter than light in house not put much power 12 way fused block for 12Volt cool fan wich water proof etc i live in Toronto so i have build it for cold weather i dose out side in cold a lot when snow even if you have out side snow on tool box nothing will do it love your video good job well build power station keep up good work brother
Hey Paul, great Work and good Idea to Stick all the components into wheeled toolbox. I was thinking of doing the same Kind of building when i was in a Hardware Store a couple weeks ago. I Had the same thoughts with the PC Fans, but i am a little afraid having too much humidity blowing into the Box If its raining or the Air is loaded with moisture.
Greetings from Ludwigsfelde, Germany

Hello Paul how much would you charge one with the solo in All
Excellent video full of info, thank you. What are the specs for the battery? Did you build it? Great work
Lithium Iron phosphate battery 1280 watts and 100 amps. You can buy these most anywhere
Yes I did build it
Hey Paul! It's me again...with another dumb question.
Where did you wire the main battery disconnect to?
I must have missed that part.
There's just so much great info to absorb while watching you!
To the battery and to the fuse blocks. That way everything is protected.
@@paulswoodshop395Gotcha! Thanks again!
duct all existing ventilators directly to outside and use one big (120-140mm?) fan (blow-in) with thermal control to kick in when temp of entire compartment gets too high ..
Or if yo want to complicate things - duct one bigger in-fan and one out-fan to all active parts and disable those small blowers ..
Well done 👍
Thanks
i build one my sell my have in panel breaker panel and my is CGFI out with 20A BREAKER switch water proof out plug i used on my my have everything light on it very bright that not water proof plug my is water proof plug and water proof fan
Nice build. Is there any reason why you didn't use a hybrid charge controller/inverter? You could potentially double the battery capacity with the extra room
I wanna buy this!!
The videos are just to show how to make one. I no longer sell them. And I cannot ship them.
What will the run...
Freezer? Home AC unit? Fireplace blower? Or what.
Out of curiosity, what AWG wire are you using between battery and the inverter? Everything I see says to use 2/0 AWG for a 2000W inverter. That gauge of wire is very hard to work with. Thank you
When would you use a buss bar vs having a bunch of ring terminals on the battery post?
In this build I did not use a bus bar. I have 4 connections to the battery. I used one of those to power the fuse block because the lights and fans needed a fuse.
i build one 3000 watts pure sine wave water proof tool box water proof out let CGFI out have 20A breaker switch in my tool box 2 20A breaker switch one for each plug have battery meter volt meter tell how percent my battery is i have 150 Amp fused for my inverter with 15A breaker switch to turn it off Usb port water proof my 110V AC out plug are water proof with lot other things so know how build my much better than lot people nice build cool i have panel in my tool box with 2 20A breaker switch and 15A breaker switch so if anything happend to plug i can turn off my breaker for switch like in side of your house
do you still do complete builds for people?
I like this👍
I Think you have a plan for mass assembly line your products.
Greeting from Canada Toronto thats nice build how come you used no breaker going to you 110A/C outlet plug i have few inverter i have 800 watts 60Hz 110A/C output i build my own power station i have 2 20Amp breaker from my inverter going for 2 outlet 110A/C outlet plug so if anything happenend to my inverter the breaker will only flip like breaker that is in yours house
I used GFCI outlets. They have built-in breakers.
@@paulswoodshop395 that is cool 😇😇😇😇🥰🥰🥰
Howdy folks! Just a question from a newbie of the Solar World ...
Should there be a fuse coming directly off of the positive battery terminal?
yes
@@paulswoodshop395Thanks Paul, I believe I'm going to use a 200 amp MRFB.
You've inspired this 60 year old man to do one of my own.
We appreciate you sharing your fun projects with us.👍
Take care.✌️
I just turned 65 last week.
thats very nice build love it build but i build my own 48V 120AC 60Hz 3000 watts pure sine wave i have 4 12volt battery 18A Lead acid battery i have 4 breaker 2 20A and 2 15A i have have 2 GFCI 1 15A and next is 20A I have 125A Switch DC 30A and i have 250A fused for my inverter not finish yet was doing testing run table saw 120AC 60Hz 15A and skillsaw 120AC 10A 60Hz etc not finish yet
That is one hell of a huge solar generator that you have built.. What would the Purchase Price of that unit be ? Do you ship these units to their new owners when they purchase them, or do they need to pick them up in person ?
I do not ship due to lithium batteries.
you can build them your self i did have 3000 watts pure sine wave 48V i just started to build not finish yet my have in breaker like breaker in your house with GFCI when i finish i will show the link
@@kennthbrowne7051 I am planning on building one for my Motorhome. I am thinking of going with a 6000 Watt Inverter, and 4 12 volt Deep cycle marine batteries hooked up in Parallel, and going with about 600 watts worth of solar panels.
What kind of batteries did you use? Were they marine batteries? Etc
Outstanding! What size and chemistry of battery? Never heard that mentioned.
Thanks. The battery is LiFePo4 100amp. It is made with 80-- 32650 batteries I bought at Battery Hookup. 12volt
100Ah means that much or less for output before its BMS kicks in. Why use a 2000W inverter? @@paulswoodshop395
Can you give me a diagram about this? I am planning to do such a project for 12v 200ah battery and 5000w inverter.
How can i buy a box from you with all the wholes and parts? Batteries inverter and solar controller not included? Will you ship to California?
I'm sorry but I don't sell them anymore.
Where's the muffler? This is the most loaded power station build yet.
looks like the inverter rating was chosen for longevity? That can't be more than a 12V 100ah battery with probably a 100A BMS, so you'll never reach the inverter's capacity.
How do you pre-charge the inverter each time you turn in the battery?
I never pre-charged them. No need. after they are connected.
@@paulswoodshop395 thank you for that info.
How did you connect the inverter to power the loads? Via say outlets? Do you just open the lid and plug into the inverter directly?
some inverter you hot wire it not all of them can do it
Can you build me one with 3000 watt inverter ?
what battery did you use?
I built the batteries from cells I purchased from Battery Hookup. They no longer sell them.
Do the wires for the charging input go directly to the battery?
And can it be charged that way while running a load?
And help would be appreciated by this newbie...who asks dumb questions.
Thank you
Yes to both of your questions. Thanks for viewing.
@@paulswoodshop395Thank you SOOOO much!
Your tutorials have given me the confidence to do my own build.
nice power box cool but I know how I have power station and its water proof my out let is water proof I have 3000 watts pure sine wave inverter I have everything in my so if rain come they is out side they have cover it up not mind every body building power box but not water proof even have water proof fan
No type c?
How much for this setup with my own battery so you could ship
How much do you sell them for? Can you ship to Alabama?
Thanks for watching. I sold that one for $3500. I only sold them locally.
@@paulswoodshop395 OK. Well, thank you for all the informative videos. I've bought one from eco flow, but I want another one. I'll probably build it to save money.
you need water proof plug i am building one with CGFI out water proof plug i have 20A BREAKER switch for my plug 2 out let plug have 2 20A breaker switch my out is CGFI if anything happend it will filp the switch on my like how how breaker in panel in your house
How much you charge for 3000 watt system?
Where do you live
@@paulswoodshop395 Mississippi
@@Lakeridg This generator without the battery is $2000 plus shipping. This is how it appears in the video. If you are interested I will get a price on shipping. I will need an address. You can text it to 314-520-3611. Thanks Paul
its nice build cool I have one I build and its water proof so if you out side in rain nothing happend to it I have water proof out let I have 3 barker in my 2 20A and 15A Switch for my out let them one 20A barker for out let rate 20A my can take rain nothing will happend to it even snow can fall on it nothing do it its weather proof so when I build to sell its weather proof
INDIANA EVERTHING BUT BATTERYS 3000 WATT INVERTER
How do I order one
I only sell in the St. Louis area. I don't have the permits to ship them.
@@paulswoodshop395 can you ship without the battery?
@@rnedmundo Yes. Where do you live?
@@paulswoodshop395 south Texas. McAllen, TX. I have 390w solar panels
Very nice power box you built, how does this power box compare to something like a
ecoflow delta. Or a Jackery with similar wattage?
Safety FIRST. YOU'RE selling these things with No proper fuse at the POS battery post to protect the wires from causing a fire if SHIT was to happen, also ALL of the POS connections need to be covered or insulated for the same reason. Same as a AC panel. Your the engineer and builder and have the responsibility to Do it RIGHT don't just make it work.
you built that for a customer and you put a wall out let on it and its crooked
