Frugal frontiers

Among the many benefits of using solar powered Direct Current (DC) is the ability to use much smaller (less costly) battery banks and no inverter - massive savings!. Relatively small (less costly) solar PV arrays are required to run DC devices. Solar powered DC certainly delivers in the areas of frugality and efficiency.

Doing more with less - Solar economy


At Solar Jooce one of our goals is to help regular people stretch every penny in tough environments. If a large inverter battery bank falls outside your budget, you can opt for Direct Current (DC) appliances and scale down to a single appropriately sized battery! No inverters needed with DC!!
The single battery above (in the lower middle section) powers:

3 x DC Security outdoor lights
6 x DC Indoor lights
1 x DC Ceiling fan
1 x DC Standing fan
1 x DC Microwave oven
1 x DC Chest freezer
1 x DC Pressing iron 
 
Keep functioning - Do more with less.
