  • Finally I begin the installation of my DIY Powerwall and we start with the cable tray. In this video, I measure up all the Victron Inverters, Chargers and other devices and discuss the strategy for the install. It's really important to get these first few steps correct as it will impact the later stages of the install.
    A slightly longer video than normal with a bit of light humour as well, hopefully you'll give me a like and subscribe for the trouble.

    Hi just a thought, you could have measured all the plant, then transferred the measurements onto a cornflake box, then you can just tape those on the wall. With each in place you can have the fixing holes in the cardboard so when in final place you could drill through 👍 great to see things moving on

    Hello Darren, here in Australia, I've heard rumor's of an electricity shortage in Sweden? Apparently EV owners (like yourself) are only allowed to drive for "essential" reasons only is this true? If so, this must be a real impact? Great to see you finally putting it all together! Looking forward to to the next episode.

      Hi Mark, nah that's not true at all, lol. Last year, there was talk about a shortage of electricity because one of our nuclear reactors was being upgraded for a while but I've never heard anything around it impacting EV owners. Here the government is pushing people to buy EV's and scrap their petrol and diesel cars. Sounds like another Apple.news story to me ;-)

      Hey Brian, great to hear from you, I sent you a Happy New Year through Patreon :-)
      Yeah it feels great to get started on the power wall finally. There's a lot happening in a short period of time so I should have a lot of videos coming out over the nest couple of months. Thanks for your comment, nice to know you're still following :-D
