Nice job, Tony & Tanya. A lot of work to get things situated just right. Hope this gives you al the power you need. I like that foam stuff. Full-watch. 👍🏽🤠 8/13/23
Hello, my friend. We are getting a basic understanding of the solar stuff, but there is a lot to learn. I am glad to have you around again. I have seen your comments in a while.
I love the way y'alls homestead is coming along. It encourages me and mine, now that we're moving back to our family farm and gunna carve out a section to call our own. God Bless and Good Fortunes
I'm gonna try that y2k on my next pole set project, instead of lugging those 80 pound sacks of ready mix. 👍💯✌ Gizmo 🐕 the foredog gave his approval and passed the inspection Isee✅ 😂
I tried a bag of it for my eco worthy tracker and Using the same method as Tony my pipe in the ground wasn't very solid an hour later. So I dug it out and replaced with regular cement.
Watched your video and immediately ordered our kit. They had a $100 off coupon which made this a steal. Shipped and had it on the doorstep in 3 days. We are making our ground mount this week and love the way you did yours. Curious as to what size plate you used?
Do you like the posthole digger on the front better? It looks like it might be harder to hit the target and might need a second person to help? How do you compare your welding helmet to those that are solar powered at HF? I didn't know they took batteries.
The welding helmet has a solar strip, but it was locked up in a dark place until this use. I guess that killed the battery. It worked perfect after I used it.
Building a solar farm are ya.? One of my 400w panels is going bad and so the tracker only has 1 400 watt panel on it now. Am in Texas now then going up to NY. Don't know when I'll be back home but then I will Adjust some of the voltages and then put One of my other good 400w panel ib place of it. Looks like I need to invest into some 200 or 250w panels to put on mine to get more than 1kw a day from it.
@@TonysTractorAdventure @TonysTractorAdventure Not yet. I think I want to maximize the panels on it with 200 W panels.. 6 of them. Right now Just 1 400 W panel on the tracker is receiving more than the other 2 on the ground. I was in New York this morning and today it's Pennsylvania On my way to North Carolina. I would love to capture the sunrise from a North Carolina truck stop if I can. Learning curve both of us.. haha..
@@TonysTractorAdventure Well.. I got home on tuesday.. and yesterday the UPS truck arrived. My six 200w bi-facials panels arrived. So I got them all on just before sunset tonight.. but need a couple more branch connectors to connect the last 3 panels to the controller. For some strange reason.. even with one of the panels connected, my controller didn't like something.. and got an error code.."Err 38, Err 39 and Err 80 to Err 87 - PV Input shutdown". So.. I got the last side panel on.. but discovered I need to loosen all of the panels and shift them about 3'4 of an inch. Then do some cable management and still need to tweak the voltages a bit. It doesn't go flat when the sun sets.. and lower the morning voltage as well. On the 2nd array.. I connected 4 of the 6 290 panels and they got 2.5KWh today.. need more connectors to add the last 2 panels. So.. 1200w on the tracker and 1190w on the ground. Oh.. I found someone local on Craigslist selling one of these trackers. Still in the box.. 6 months old.. for $400.
Great video I have a question about how far apart you placed each tracker to avoid shading? I'm ordering 2 of these and want to get my holes dug prior to the arrival of the trackers. Thanks
