what can this solar run in the house?

If enough panels are added, the solar can run the whole house.Typically, 3-5KW is needed to run the whole house.

An inverter generator would help. I know you are asking about solar but a pure sine wave inverter is expensive. A large generator would help even more, charge a large battery bank quickly, run the washing machine(no reason to be dirty), run communication equipment...etc If you want to go solar the best thing to do is bite the bullet and have a company install one. These small kits are crap. You will also be painting a bulls eye on your roof for scavengers. KEEP PREPPING! CHRIS

I may be reading your question wrong, but the light is powered off house current, not solar cell.

I'm not sure about household components, I would think 2-3. I use mine to run tools for construction. You need to look at watts the generator puts out vs. amps of products you want to run. Search for a chart to see on that. I would go larger than smaller if looking to run a house. I would think a 5000 watt or larger to run refrigerator & AC

Yes, you should be able to run a couple of laptops and some lighting. Double check by looking at the generator's wattage output and the watts used by your devices.

It uses regular household power. I live off the grid and am able to power it through my inverter without it blowing a fuse, this is a huge plus!

I don't see why you couldn't use this system for home applications. With a few batteries and a pure sine wave inverter, you could run a fridge, microwave, lights, computer, power tools etc. I'm not an expert on these as I'm still a bit new to the solar world. The system will charge a single 155amp hour battery in no time at all, even with a cloud cover. I plan on setting up my system for every 100 watt panel, I want a 155amp hour battery. Do some reading on the web, and watch some youtube videos. People have put a ton of information on systems similar to this one.

It's LED and it runs on batteries, not solar power. As long as you keep fresh batteries in it then it'll keep running. :)

I know it will run a 220v water pump, air conditioner & stoves I'm not sure of.It puts outs quite a bit of power, I've ran my whole house off of it including lights, tv,frig, freezer, all the chargers for everthing, super east start.I would recommend it.

I run mine from an inverter that is hooked up to batteries that are charged by my solar array. It uses very little power.

Hi, most houses can handle the power. It doesn't cost very much to run it, if that is what you are concerned about. It just means that it's not cheaply made. Hope this helps.

You would not use the Thunderbolt Solar kit to run a 4 bedroom house. That is a serious investment in no less than 12 panels, a good sine wave converter, and a 24 volt forklift battery pack at the least. This kit is suitable to keep 1 or 2 RV 12 volt batterys charged for use with an 800 to 2000 watt converter.

i use the solar to charge a battery then run 12 volt lights off batteryif your using during day try itu may have to add battery for more reserve

No, it is not solar powered. It runs on regular household electric power supply.

Can be used in a house for sure, I used it to power up a booster pump for my well with just two six volt batteries. The pump drew 1350 watts for about two minutes every half hour or so. I think led lights would be good all night long.

Unfortunately not -- nowhere near that -- maybe a mid-sized doghouse (light and fan). Nothing against the GoPower system -- it's a high quality solar system -- but you must consider wattage. It puts out 320 watts max, while your hairdryer can consume 1500 watts. Together with proper (AGM) 12 volt storage batteries, this system can power a medium refrigerator 24/7, but any larger power draw will deplete batteries at night and, therefore, will only run during the day.

Cory......it will run with 2, TWO,100 watt solar panels wired for 24 voltz and then it will run with no battery.
