Look at Will Prouse Videos. Keep in mind he is in Nevada. Anyone in Northeast only gets 3 months where the solar power is more than you use, if A/C is not on. Ideally with 6 battleborn batteries and running a 24 volt or more system
With correct manager and inverter, you can run most anything except electric heat. Cost doing it yourself is 12K which is 1/4 of similar system done commercially. Need lots of Sun . If you only want to power LED lights, you can put a system together for 2k with a excellent battery. Don't skimp on batteries, Battleborn lasts 10 years. https://m.youtube.com/user/errolprowse
