I have a 7500w generator at our house and run it through the same tranpro 10 circuit transfer switch. I also installed an “ez generator switch” to add an 11th circuit piggybacked off of a low use circuit. Has worked several times during power outages here in Ohio.
Good video, the Anker F3800 system is decent. I have two F3800's and 6 BP3800 expansion batteries and a Home Power Panel... so I am speaking from experience. Unfortunately I would not buy again because but they essentially have no customer service. And when they do firmware upgrades, they don't know the changes in specs. And they don't ship anywhere near their promised shipping and delivery time. But as for support, each call or chat takes hours and each response it automatic and says they will reply in 2 days... even for the most basic questions. So unless you're a solar expert, don't count on ANKER for any help unless you have a ton of patience.
Hi I have been a filler for a number of year, have an issue with your review of the Anker 3800. You stated that you can run your Rv with the power station. A single solis 3800 will not run a 50amp Rv! I purchased a 3800 power station thinking I would be able to plug in my 50amp cord and would be able to use the additional power in conjunction with my lithium batteries. Does not work the station only allows 25 amp max output via the nema 1450 Rv plug. 2 power stations are required to run a 50 amp motorhome (verified with Anker solis this morning)
I think they are nice in particular a home owner for an emergency power source or a rv that needs that set up, IE, no generator, or big solar set up on the roof. For ourselves we have a 20 kw whole house generator and if we lose power at a park I don’t hesitate to run the motorhome generator. If someone wants to plug into my outside 120 or needs help then no problem.
We are use several smaller batteries to maintain our frig, and internet. We have a lot of power blips shortening the life our frig. We also have them for shelter in place and traveling. Now that the batteries are more power and portable, we are thinking of getting one to plug into the house power and adding solar.
I would just remove my generation and install that thing. That way the weight offsets and you can add modules up to what ever capacity you think you need.
yeah these things are cool, especially the Ecoflow Ultra, but in reality you need a gas, diesel, or propane generator for any long term needs...more than a day a two. Get a duel fuel, run it on propane, and you won't have the problem of gas sitting for a long time. Imagine, you buy a predator, Westinghouse, or champion 12500 duel fuel for 1500 max. Done. These power stations are just a shiny object. Good for Van Life, I own two Ecoflows, but they are not serious for home backup. Renewable?? I would check out the carbon footprint of a Chinese made huge battery!
I have been considering this type of set up in lieu of a Victron type set up for our 50amp class A. Do you feel that after having the built in inverter system and testing this mobile set up, do you feel it could replace a Victron set up?
I have panels on the roof of my motorhome, cables running inside to the charger and then to the lithium batteries. Lots of cables running everywhere. For simplicity, I bought an Ecoflow and bifacial folding panels and now run my entire motorhome through the Ecoflow - all the stats and controls on my phone. Should have done this the first time. But at least now I have two lithium batteries that I use with the Ecoflow for more juice when I want it (don't buy the batteries that plug into it, not a good value when you can get cheaper lithium batteries and connect them to the box).
