200w Solar Shed - Keter Oakland 1175 with Victron 75/15 

It's cold in winter and you would definitely need a heater. It's hot in summer because of the black roof but it's fine with the double doors open

Hi, It's holding up pretty well so far. No obvious problems and it still looks great.. I have noticed condensation in the winter but the Electronics, Bikes, General Tools and Gardening Equipment are fine in there and haven't developed any rust or problems. Some very delicate fine tools have developed a little rust over the years but nothing more than you would see in any shed. I don't use it for extended periods in the winter just for storage so it's completely stock apart from the solar. No insulation or heating is installed. The solar works great in summer, but I hook it up to a much smaller battery in the winter months just to keep the security cameras operational. There's no where near enough energy from the panels to keep the big battery topped up in winter.

@@richardhanson2331 Hi thx for the reply, yeah i get light condensation on the roof. i`ll monitor the situation. cheers again, lovely shed.. victron stuff. no nonsense!! quality!

@@kool-k-kel There must be a fairly easy way to manage the condensation but it's never bothered me enough to do anything about it. The Victron stuff is nice but way over the top for my use case :) I just like nerdily monitoring the solar yield and battery charge. I made a video about a cheap easy way to remote monitor the solar system but never uploaded it. Will have to get around to uploading it.

@@richardhanson2331 yeah do it#!, what batt size you using and hows it charge back over the summer? ah out vs in etc

let me know if/when you upload.. im especially interested in the monitoring you have is a shunt required or do you just feed the mppt bluetooth to pc?

Hi, The back pack i used for the H105s was a very cheap backpack from Costco, it didn't even have a brand.

Free standing only. No way you would want to screw anything into the walls

@@richardhanson2331 that's what I'd think too, just the description for these sheds, keter describe the walls as being ok to screw into for shelving etc, but didn't sound like something I'd trust, so though id as the question. Looking to hopefully get one just before summer, hopefully big enough for what I need.

I've read plastic sheds suffer with condensation, how have you find it with yours? Thanks in advance, appreciate the help

@@anandpatel4079 It gets a little damp in winter but fine in the other seasons. I've not really had anything go rusty or mouldy in the 2 years I've had the shed. This is in the UK climate. It may be different in other climates.
