    • Excellent Technical Guide for Solar Planning & Design!
Format: Kindle
This book gave me exactly what I had been looking for! I've read many web articles for basic information to design and build my own solar system for simple projects. But some of the details I've been wanting have escaped me. This book did a great job filling in the technical details I'd been looking for! For example, on solar controllers, I'd read many similar descriptions on the difference between PWM and MPPT controller technologies for solar-charging batteries. But I could find nothing on the exact details of what a "Max Power Point" represents (in an MPPT controller) and how determining and measuring this helps the controller be more efficient than PWM. The author's descriptions and charts in the chapter "Different Charge Controllers" gave me exactly what I wanted to know, in relatively simple terms for a beginner. The chapter on "Selecting a Charge Controller" also gave me the details on why a 24V solar panel works better with MPPT controllers for charging a 12V battery in less-than-ideal sun conditions. The MPPT controller I ended up buying recommended a 24V solar panel (or series pair) for that controller with a 12V battery, and this section of the book gave me a good description for why. All stuff I didn't know I needed to know for even my simple solar projects! So, in addition to providing convenient refreshers and handy formulas on basic electronics needed for my projects, this book provided me answers to questions I had on selecting the right combination of solar panel(s) and controllers to get my projects working correctly! Great reference guide and tutorial book! ... show more

    • Excellent book
Format: Paperback
Terrific book for beginners and advanced solar off grid folks. Love the examples of different types of possible setups in the back, one of which I will be using. I have some trouble with Nick's accent on his videos, but he writes with clarity.

    • Great book for someone new to installing solar power systems!
Format: Paperback
Nice book for someone newly interested in installing their own solar power system. I've used it to install a small solar pump house to run a sprinkler system fed by a lake. The book answered several obvious questions to help a person become more knowledgeable in solar systems and even answered some questions I didn't know I had until I started reading the book. It covers a lot of topics and explains things at a low level for ease of understanding. ... show more

    • TOO TECHNICAL FOR NOVICES
Format: Paperback
I give it 3 stars cause maybe this book is helpful for people with more advanced knowledge how to build diy solar, but more of a one-star for novices. For a novice, the book is too technical. And some sections were confusing to understand, very likely cause the book is hard to follow without background knowledge on solar. Maybe the book would have been best separated into several books; maybe som' like: Novice - 12V 1000W inverter set up, beginner 12V/24V 2000-3000W inverter set up , intermediate and advanced 24V/48V 4000W+ inverter set up. Also, some sections did not make sense; ex. p.115, jumps from an amps calculation for a wire, but then the wire chart selection is by temperature.... huh?. Also, fuse section, describes fuse types but no explanation exactly how fuse power is determined. The book gets overwhelming for a novice. I akin the book to showing a novice carpenter how to glue 2 pieces of wood together by describing tech aspects on how joist loads are determined for a mansion. before installing them. If you already understand solar, I'm sure you will find this book very helpful. But novices, the book seems tmi..... ... show more

    • A Great Reference Book for the DIY Solar Power System Installer
Format: Paperback
“Off Grid Solar Power Simplified” is without a doubt a value added guide on engineering the right solar power system for whatever your application is like an off grid cabin, RV, Tiny Homes, etc. It goes well beyond teaching you how to spell “Solar Power” like so many other books on the subject. The author systematically walks you through the details of how to design a complete system and make it efficient both in energy and in cost. Face it, copper cables are not cheap. He explains the pros and cons of configuring your batteries and solar panels to reduce the cost of your cables used in your system as one example. He also has his own YouTube channel that reinforces the concepts in the book as well. Not all authors have done this. He is definitely a subject matter expert on DIY off grid solar systems and helps you develop an intuitive understanding of the various topics that go into developing your own unique off grid solar power system. This reference has more than paid for itself in the cost savings of doing the design/build of our system. In my opinion it is a must have to take on a project of this caliber and is a great value for the budget minded solar enthusiasts. We have two paper copies and one digital copy on our iPad for easy reference. One copy is kept with our solar power system and the other is in my home office. On the lite side, Engineer's are essentially lazy and I’m an Engineer and Program Manager by profession. We design things based on cost, schedule, and performance and this book is value added to all three areas. ... show more
