    well on a home you have no reason to store the energy because it just runs the meter backwards if your not using it lol

    I like your plastic bin idea. I think I'll find something similar to fit over my batteries.

    Hmmm... I might need to cut a few gaps... Or reroute my wiring? It kinda goes all over the place.
    I might be better off just installing a shelf that covers the inverter and batteries.
    Maybe with back wall so nothing bumps against the solar controllers and switches on the back wall.

    Well i only did that so the stuff in the compartment couldnt jump onto the battery with the exposed terminals and short it out. It doesnt look like anything in that compartment moves so your probably safe

    I just thought it would be nice to be able to throw some lightweight stuff in there, like a couple folding chairs.
