The Standard Weekend Warrior Kit comes with a standalone inverter. A standalone inverter is DIY friendly with a standard 3-pin plug point, but requires a separate charge controller (incl.), and a battery charger(not incl.) for generator input. Change ‘upgrade’ selection to see differences.
What can the Weekend Warrior Kit run?
Below is an example of one day's total power usage, if you're generating ~2,250Wh of energy per day (what this kit produces with at least 3 peak sun hours, expected for 80% of the year). These items are a guide to what you might run over one day, and they can be swapped out to suit your needs within the generation estimate. This example doesn't account for times when you may have to cut back on power use (or supplement with a generator) due to several days of poor weather preventing your batteries from fully recharging each day.

Choose your inverter
Standalone or Hybrid

Standalone (Standard)
The standalone inverter acts only as an inverter, requiring a separate charge controller and optional battery charger to work in an off-grid system. This battery charger will need to be manually started each time it’s needed. The standalone inverter comes with a standard 3-pin outlet for immediate power use, and only requires an electrician if it will be wired into a switchboard - otherwise it’s DIY-friendly.

Hybrid (Upgrade)
The hybrid inverter is a more expensive unit. It combines the 3 components in one, and this allows you to connect an auto-start generator that will kick in when your batteries hit a specified percentage. However, it lacks a 3-pin outlet and must be wired into a switchboard, so an electrician is required, resulting in a higher installation cost. A hybrid unit is required for Lithium batteries.
