Dear Victron Energy members,
I'm in the market for a reliable UPS/no-break/backup solution at my house (normal residential home). A friend told me to look into Victron quality products, so here I am :) .
I will need this solution for the rare moments that we have a grid failure. It's only needed to power a medium size 230V fridge (power consumption is around 40-80watts an hour). I will manually change the powercord from the wall socket to 230V no-break socket connected to the Victron solution.
I'm considering to get a Multiplus 12/1600/70 with a 200ah lifepo4 battery. Is this a good and safe solution to use in my house? Will the battery hold up without a load for long periods of time?
Are solar panels (I'm limited to only 3 or 4 panels) an option for keeping the battery charged? (I may need a Victron Easysolar for this?) (I only need 24-48hrs backup power)
Or is a regular Victron battery charger with a separate inverter also a good option?
The thing I'm worried about it leaving the battery on the charger 24/7/365.
A lot of question, I hope you guys and gals can help me out.
Thank you,
Regards,
Ben
