I've gathered all the parts for my starter solar power system. I've done planning, and tested things, but I will wait until after Christmas, and good weather, to actually install it.
The most expensive element is a LiFePO4 storage battery. I bought a good one that may last 10 years. It has bonus USB ports that can be used to power an outdoor security camera.
The panels will be mounted on the roof of a shed, and will be oriented towards geographic south at about a 25° angle.
