  • This isn’t that good of an idea. While it seems like a good idea as we skip the loss of DC solar panel to AC mains to DC appliance.

    Currently each appliance* you have runs at 110/240 AC and will transform down to whatever DC voltage the device needs.

    Solar panels produce DC voltage somewhere between 12v to 52v.

    Plugging in a device that expects 12v into a 48v line will blow something up.

    *Some appliances like washing machines, fridges, toasters, kettles don’t always use DC some will still step down the voltage to something more usable.
