Running A 1200 Watt Miner Off Of Solar Panels

Temporary setup antminer d3 on 100 off grid solar power.

Running a 1200 watt miner off of solar panels.

Figure out the duty cycle. I got my house very cold by running the ac unit. Determine which appliances you ll be running at the same time. Now if you get 6 hours of good sun a day you would then multiply the panel size by the number of hours of sun.

The total watt hours per day of energy you ll need. What you can run on a 300w solar panel under reasonable weather conditions. The other night i decided to conduct another experiment. If you have a 75 watt panel and 5 hours of sun per day you would produce 375 watts per day per panel.

Remember earlier we established that a 300w panel will provide us with 1800w of electricity or treble that of a 100w panel. For example a weekend cabin used for two days has a duty. Always round this off to the higher number. This inverter converts ac to dc power.

Then i turned off the cool air at midnight when i usually go to bed. This allows us to run the miner in california with 0 power using excess solar generated power. Equipment that will run on a 300w solar panel under reasonable weather conditions. Using the 2400 daily watt hour figure from the above example you would divide the 2400 by 375 and need 6 4 panels.

Add their power draws in watts. Now divide the daily watt hours by the wattage produced by one solar panel. Compounding the issue of running heating off solar panel energy heaters are more energy intensive than cooling and air conditioning units. This is 200 times 6 which equals 1200 watts that one panel will produce in one day.
