Build Your Own Solar Power Backup Generator

In 2017, my family and I were affected by Hurricane Irma. We were without power for several days with an ill elderly person in the home. At that moment, I realized we needed a generator but gas-powered generators are too noisy and you have to keep spending money on oil products.  I looked into buying a solar-powered backup generator, but they were very expensive ($2000). So, I decided to make one myself.

This is a DIY guide to help you build your own Solar Power Backup Generator. This will save you approximately $1300. Includes materials list with links, wiring diagram, sample photos and typical appliance wattage usage. Once it's built, solar is free!
