I think this is only person I've seen hook up one of these solar ACs and actually demonstrate hooking up the solar panels and show it working. Sponsors take note of this... this man deserves the sponsor unlike every other person that never showed hooking up the solar which is the main selling point of a unit like this.

I watched this video and my jaw was on the floor! I ordered a unit, and found they were on backorder, so I called Dave and found they had a cosmetically damaged unit that I could get, so I had Dave send me that one. It has been SO BADASS!!! I cannot believe that this thing runs all day in my house near Phoenix WITH THE PLUG LAYING IN THE DIRT!! It's nuts! Full disclaimer I have to plug it back into the wall about 6 o'clock in the evening as the sun is heading very northwest of my south facing panels, then about 7 o'clock am the sun is high enough for me to go out and unplug it again. (I know I don't have to unplug it, but it is so cool to see it run all day with the plug lying on the ground, it makes me happy).

You might as well pull that out and tape it up all the way. If you leave gaps inside the wall you're going to have some problems with condensation that you won't see until it's mold guaranteed. I would have drilled a big enough hole for the size PVC pipe it took to run the set through and just totally eliminate the issue.

Have been running my mini splits since 2010 using my solar system and battery backup. Being able to run "free" is nothing new. I'm 7/10 of a mile away from the center of town and am 100% off the grid. Computers, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, TVs, etc etc all the toys a modern home in the US have without any issues and once again 100% off the grid.

Quick note for the next one, install the foam insulation tape bottom-up. That way if any liquid ever gets in there, it will drip over the overlaps instead of seeping in.

I have to give you BIG Kudos for this video! This is the first FULL demo of an off-grid system hookup that I have seen. I have been following the few makers of these isolated solar mini-split systems for a while, but this is my first exposure to this manufacturer. I love that the electric utility company is NOT involved because your solar array is dedicated solely to this device. You are providing your own solar energy and if your energy falls short, the system seamlessly makes up energy requirements with grid power. You gave a great live demo of the proper automated metering of grid power based upon a decrease in available solar. REAL NUMBERS! Thanks for taking the time to produce this video and the introduction to this manufacturer. (I also see some YouTubers trying to figure out how adapt these systems to their RV.)

When wrapping tape of any kind, START AT THE BOTTOM. That way your overlap is sealed from above with each pass of the tape.

Watched video, purchased, installed, flawless. Nice system and the company is very proactive in communicating.

Amen Dave ! I though about this approximately 7 yrs ago and wander how come it wasn't in the market being that the Ac uses the most energy in the home. At least here in Florida. Thank you so much for putting this video out for the masses to see. Your the Man !

Mind blowingly awesome is an understatement. That is crazy! Wish there was an option to replace a normal outdoor a/c compressor with that simplicity and technology.
