We still don't have power from the street yet so in the mean time, I wired an Anker battery into the breaker panel to power all the lights in the house
-
Also modern lighting is super low power! I stuck a kill-a-watt in between to measure and all the lights draw a total of less than 1 amp!
-
TIL they make batteries that big
-
@aaronpk knowing there's no meters makes sense, 100 percent. How much power did lights ONLY draw? Did the battery discharge really quickly or was it a usable amount for lights only?
-
You know that this might lever out any safety features in your electric circuitry, right?
-
Thanks! It's been a long time in the works!
-
@aaronpk hope you have the main disconnect off in case power does come back on!
-
ahh ok. missed the backstory. i thought this was for a power outage situation. congrats on your new place?!?
-
We don't even have service wires running from the street yet, nor are there meters installed
-
not to question your skills, but just to be safe, gonna ask,
you did shut off the main breaker, yes? for when power does come back on? -
@aaronpk (You opened your service breaker, right?)
