Solar setups, power stations, and home energy projects! 🌞 Since 2020, I've been tinkering around with ways to use DIY solar setups to power my life. These videos are where I share my experiments!

Video Description

Let's test out two $1,000 solar setups and see how they compare head-to-head! 🛒 PARTS LIST - $1,000 Bluetti Setup • Bluetti AC180 - https://amzn.to/41BYFGb • 2 200W Renogy Solar Panels - https://amzn.to/3DkiRCh • DC7909 Extension Cable - https://amzn.to/3VHJIyz 🛒 PARTS LIST - $1,000 EcoFlow Setup • EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus - https://amzn.to/4iLDDuH • 4 100W Eco-Worthy Solar Panels - https://amzn.to/3P0CS3x • 2 XT60i Solar Adapter Cables* - https://amzn.to/3ZZfMAl 🛒 OTHER PARTS MENTIONED • 10A Solar Fuse - https://amzn.to/3DmZiJE • Branch Connectors - https://amzn.to/3VLNJ4R *I used XT60 adapter cables in the video because that's what I already had (and they worked just fine), but technically the product manual calls for XT60i connectors. ☀️ SOLAR CALCULATOR - estimate savings for your home, get free online quotes from local solar companies https://www.solarreviews.com/solar-estimator?aff=162985&cam=859 🔢 MY FREE SOLAR TOOLS • Solar Panel Tilt Angle Calculator ➔ https://footprinthero.com/solar-panel-tilt-angle-calculator • Solar Panel Azimuth Angle Calculator ➔ https://footprinthero.com/solar-panel-azimuth-angle-calculator • Peak Sun Hours Calculator ➔ https://footprinthero.com/peak-sun-hours-calculator 👋 CONNECT WITH FOOTPRINT HERO! • Blog ➔ https://footprinthero.com/ • TikTok ➔ https://www.tiktok.com/@footprinthero • Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/footprint.hero/ Correction: The Delta 3 Plus's X-Boost power rating at 120V is 2600W, not 2700W.
