[QUOTE="johnb2713, post: 529904, member: 35153"] The thing is, going with an off grid inverter as soon as you exceed the inverter capacity it will trip. So washing machine running switch kettle on and off goes the power, ditto oven and hob etc. With a grid tied inverter you will run on solar / battery until such time as the demand exceeds the inverter capacity then additional power is imported from the grid, no interruptions etc, the inverter will still be supplying the maximum it can. The charging overnight is also taken care of by the inverter, timers set to use off peak tariff and the batteries are charged to the % you set. [/QUOTE]
