Size your needs
Estimate watt-hours and peak watts for devices you plan to run.
Manage loads
Avoid exceeding inverter limits; stagger high-draw devices.
Charge safely
Use approved chargers; follow solar input limits if applicable.
Store and maintain
Store partially charged if lithium; top up periodically per manual.
