In this video, I talk about different ways to use solar panels directly without a battery. Whether you're curious about running an inverter without batteries, leveraging solar panels for direct use, or exploring options like AC on solar panel without battery, this guide is your go-to resource.
I cover various methods, including direct solar panel usage, buck and PWM converters, larger pump controllers, and off-grid inverters, shedding light on efficiently converting solar DC to AC without the traditional battery setup.
I start with a simple explanation of powering 12V loads directly from an 18V solar panel for applications where operating without peak efficiency or potential risks to device longevity is acceptable.
Next, we use the buck converter for stepping down voltage, perfectly suited for powering USB devices or 12V DC loads, and even connecting to an inverter for AC loads. A real-world example is presented, detailing the setup for a 50W pump powered by solar panels through a buck converter and an inverter, emphasizing the practical aspects and calculations involved in such setups.
The video explores the use of PWM speed controllers to control the speed of DC motors, offering a hands-on approach to adjusting motor speed with precision. Additionally, for larger applications, the pump controller segment provides insights into managing substantial pumps with solar power, highlighting efficiency and the potential for integrating float switches for automated control based on water levels.
Video about running pump controllers: • Solar pool pump instal...
For high-power applications, I introduce the concept of running an inverter without a battery with the Growatt SPF 3000TL LVM-ES off-grid hybrid inverter as a viable solution for substantial solar setups without batteries.
This guide is not just about running AC on solar panels without a battery or using a solar DC to AC converter without a battery; it's a comprehensive look at alternative energy solutions tailored for those ready to embrace solar power in unique and efficient ways.
Your feedback and experiences are invaluable-share your thoughts in the comments, and let's learn from each other.

I now use 36v panels to charge 24v battery banks and 24v to 110v pure sine inverters to run 4 110v 9500gph waterfall pumps. But induction motors require 4x or greater wattage inverters or the inverter burns up. I made the mistake of putting 4 600 watt pumps on one 4000 watt inverter. It didn't last 1 day. I now have 6 240 watt panels to 2 100ah 12v in series for 24v to 1 4000 watt pure sine wave inverter to 1 9500 gph 600 watt waterfall pump made to run 24/7. I have 4 sets of that setup. The inverters don't even get warm. I got the panels from SanTan Solar for $50 each. 24 panels. Inverters were $300 each. Batteries are now $200 each. Charge controllers were about $60 each. I find 24v systems work more efficiently and have more power than 12v systems. Also, I use digital programmable relays to shut off 110v relays to turn off the loads when battery voltage reaches 24v and set to turn back on when voltage reaches 26v otherwise the LiFePO4 batteries discharge too low for the charge controller to recognize them as 24v and the inverters go into fault mode. Adding the relays stops the batteries from discharging too low and the pumps resume the next morning when the sun comes up. It takes a few days of monitoring to get the settings just right, especially on cloudy days when the relays turn on and off, I had to set a large enough delay and cut on voltage difference.

Yes, the losses are negligible. You also loose efficiency from Sun heat warming the panels, and loose efficiency by voltage conversion from dc to ac. My “rule of thumb”, is, I don’t increase voltage to 120/240v unless I’m going to sell it to someone. I live off-grid. I pay $0.25 cents per watt on my panels, so I add one more panel to make up the losses. In my example, the motor is a well pump. No inverter, or battery necessary. It runs in day light, fill the holding tank until the next Sun. A battery is a buffer. A tank is a buffer. Ph + Poh is also a buffer. Buffers come in many flavors!

If you have battery, pass the output of the solar panel through voltage controller. Connect the battery and inverter to it. The voltage controller ensures that the battery is not over charged. From the inverter, connect your load. If you don't have battery, pass the output of the solar panel to a bulk converter (DC to DC converter). Connect the output of the bulk converter to an inverter. The bulk converter ensures that stable voltage is fed to the inverter. Connect your load to the inverter. Follow the calculations.

Can any one please help me I cannot finger out if what I have planned will work. I have a 5kwh off grid inverter Growatt 500es, the reason I picked this model it no batteries are required and any power my solar will not supply it will be toped up from the grid. I want to put the 5-6 panels on my garage roof facing south south west with a 30° tilt. And 5-6 panels 90° against my west west south wall. The inverter specs are as follows 5Kwh inverter 450v PV input max 22a PV input max Where I live on an island in the UK it is almost impossible to get low ah panels 10 or bellow, but very easy to get high Watt panels like 550w+ Unfortunately they are all around 48.72v VOC x 14a STC. I want to connect them in parallel in pairs of 5-6. In my head this should work as I should never hit the 22a current but I’m just not sure. Can an expert please explain why this would and wouldn’t work. Edit My South facing flat roof is 3m x8m this will only fit 7 450-550w panels on it max laying down and 6 with a 30 degree angle. my west facing wall will only 7 of the same panels flat against it. The panels I'm looking at are bellow as there are easy to get in my area atm. www.cityplumbing.co.uk/p/longi-solar-hi-mo-x6-535wp-black-frame-pv-module-lr5-66hth-535m/p/104460 Thanks

Thanks for the info. Being a high frequency inverter, is the hybrid (off-grid) inverter you mentioned suitable for pumps and air-conditioners? Assuming the KVA is sufficient. Do I need to worry about using it for those two use cases? High frequency vs low frequency has always been a concern for me due to my need for pump and air-conditioner. How much of a factor is it?
@cleversolarpower
@cleversolarpower Ай бұрын
If you start pumps, then I would recommend low frequency. They also last longer. High frequency inverters can power a load X2 their rating for a surge. This should be mentioned in the data sheet of the inverter. I recommend using a surge clamp Amp meter and measure the surge on your pump. If it falls under the max surge capability of the inverter it's ok. However, if you don't have a battery, it's not going to work. The surge power has to come from somewhere. So you will have to install batteries as well.

If you don't want the expense of a lithium battery just us a lead acid battery as a buffer You will still need a regulator to smooth out the voltage.

No converter - No charge controller - No inverter Components in the system: #) PV solar panels in series. #) High Volt DC security switch. #) Solid State DC-DC relay. #) Hot water tank. #) 220 Volt Electric Water Heater mounted in the Hot Water tank #) Temperature sensor in the Hot Water tank and an Arduino connected to the Solid State relay. This simple control disconnects the heater element when the water is near boiling. Optional: #) Display connected to the Arduino - shows the water temperature. ### Do not forget the safty pressure valve in the water circuit. Otherwise You have made a BOMB 💣### PV panels are in series The voltage from the PV panels must NEVER exceed the nominal voltage of the heating element.

I too have a diesel that runs a DC charger to charge up my lifepo4's but it's too noisy at night, how do you solve the noise if it's an issue? Mine sounds like a helicopter thumping away under load. I'd like to make some kind of concrete enclosure or have it below ground or both.

Good for you buddy, you also gotta tote the thing around, buy gas for it, listen to the loud ass thing, what do you want, a cookie? Also they sell adapters that convert DC to AC so there you go

Too much equipment. All you need is Diodes connected in series. Each diode gives you a voltage drop of (0.46 volts) You need to drop the Panel voltage from 18vdc to 15vdc. to activate the inverter. Most 12vdc inverters(Samtec)*will reactivate at 15 volts dc. For example, to activate a Samtec 120watt inverter, drop the PV volts from 18v-15vdc( 3 volt drop ). 3 volts / 0.46 volt = 7 diodes in series connected. Use large 30amp or 80 amp diodes. Using diodes for voltage drop is more robust than buck-boost equipment. Using diodes to drop voltage allows you to operate small to large equipment up to 80amps at 18-12vdc Example: 18vdc to 12vdc. to operate a 1hp well pump a 6 volt drop. 6 volts / 0.46 volt = 13 diodes in series will drop the PV voltage from 18-12vdc 100amp diode use QL100A 70 amp diode use 70HF120 Follow all IEEE and UL codes *Samtec 120watt inverter will run your Laptop computer, USB phone charger, or High Efficiency ceiling fan.

I don't agree. Diodes lose power that is dissipated as heat resulting in power loss. It's more efficient to have a DC to DC converter.

Or if a cloud rolls in whatever your running just shut off. Kinda pointless without battery's.

​@@johnmal5975Well if you have a well and a watering trough for livestock or a water tower the solar panel can pump water whenever it can and needs to fill the tank. The tank should hold enough to not run out before the sun returns.

Until you get a week straight of clouds not practical for home use. I would imagine they have some sort of backup plan with battery's or generator for that scenario. One could have an insane amount of storage tanks as well and gravity feed however you would spend the same. To each his own. @@robwesterly5785

They use water pumps like these a lot in asia. I've seen them being used and they work great. For home use, it could be a fountain in a pond or an air pump.

The way solar panels are being installed from house to house in pakistan there would be no electricity crises in pakistan in the near future. We would be able to export electricity to our neighbouring countries as well. Well done keep it up. @tahiranwar7812
