What he said. 270 x 48 = 12960 12960 watt hours x 10 cents per watt hour = $1296.00 And that is cheap for batts. Figure on spending twice that or more for really good batts. From: Mathew Howard Sent: Wednesday, February 21, 2018 10:48 AM To: af Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Af Digest, Vol 42

Steady/constant load would mean that it's drawing roughly 270 watts all day long, or is 270 watts the maximum load and it's running lower for part of the day. If you have a constant (or average) load of 270 watts, you're going to need about 13000 watt hours of battery for 48 hours of run time

Yeah, 5500 is incorrect. Sorry just getting my feet wet with this stuff. The load is roughly 270 watts. Chuck, can clarify what you mean by steady/constant? Darrick Potter DMCI Broadband LLC   -Original Message- > From: af-requ...@afmug.com > To: af@afmug.com > Date: 02/21/18
