What would be helpful is some chart or diagram that would put this in perspective for me. I thought it would be neat to save up for solar panels for my home and take the load off my bill. Also, it would be nice to have something portable. But, when they say 60 watts can I run a tv and lights or just charge some batteries?
first the only things that run straight off these modules are variable speed DC motors. Pumps and fans primarily. I am sure you could run a light with a little engineering but who needs light while the sun is shining.
As an Energy Auditor I can assure there is no average home.
Look at your own bill for a year and average it and that would be your average bill. There is always room for improvement to shave watts and maintain comfort and lifestyle.
most homes probably use at least 500Kwh some far more some far less. We use about 330Kwh
you have losses based on a number of factors count on 15 % for grid tied and 25% battery bank
or about 285 watts grid tied or 252 battery bank.
so with that panel you could run or offset 1 compact Fluorescent 13 watt bulb for 19-22 hours give or take.
