Off Grid Cabin
160W Home Solar System
If you need help sizing a system for your off grid cabin, check out our Off Grid System Calculator
Each of these home solar systems are designed to provide you with the main components you will need to take your cabin off the grid! Since each installation is unique, some parts/materials will need to be purchased separately to satisfy the needs of your specific project and local regulations. From premium modules and racking systems, to efficient inverters and durable batteries, these home solar systems include high quality, safe components for your off grid installation.
This 160W cabin home solar system features two of our altE 80W solar panels. altE solar modules are designed specifically for use in OFF GRID applications. Manufactured in accordance to ISO9001 standards and certified by IEC and CSA/US to assure electrical safety compliance.

DC to AC Inverter
This new Samlex advanced inverter series features high surge and soft start technology in a lightweight and compact design. Get reliable pure sine wave power for a fraction of the cost. The 1000 W model includes (2) three prong outlets and a USB charging port.
Solar Charge Controller
Morningstar’s ProStar is the world’s leading mid-range PWM (pulse width modulated) solar controller for both professional and consumer applications. The ProStar controllers are known for their durability and set new standards for reliability and self-diagostics. This 15A version features an easy to read digital meter display and a 5 year warranty.
Batteries
Deka Solar batteries are engineered and tested to provide reliable, long-lasting back-up power for PV and renewable energy applications where the batteries will be charged/discharged on a daily basis. These sealed AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries are spill proof and 100% maintenance free.
This home solar system includes (2) 6V, 190Ah batteries, which will be wired together for a 12V, 190Ah battery bank. Deep cycle batteries should not be discharged lower than 50%, so a battery bank of this size will provide approximately 460 Watt hours (Wh) of energy per day, for two days when fully charged. This is a rough estimate of capacity, actual capacity can change based on temperature, state of charge and the condition of the batteries. Additional batteries can be added to this system (either 2 or 4) to increase the capacity of the battery bank.
