Can I use this with a 24v battery bank?

I'm pretty sure the answer is no, at least not without finding a way to cut the Bbank output from 24 down to 12. I have one of these 800s I keep in the car and the input terminals plainly say "DC/12V." I also have a Whistler 2000W connected to a 12V battery bank and it says the same thing.

Don't know Fred. Go by the specs. If it says 24V 2 Amps for lead acid batteries, well...why would it not work?Your only concern should be about the type of connector. Good luck

Should work.But i suggest to find 24v DC - AC inverter and hook it directly to your batteries. Converting from 24V to 12V and then to AC voltage is not efficient at all.

If your solar setup is designed to charge lead acid battery's wired in series for 24V, then yes. You will need to adapt your charging setup to use the same type of adapter that plugs into the side of the pack.

Yes this will allow you to run 12v lights, I used this for backup cameras and radio, off of a 24v source. In all technicalness, not a word I know, yes the source will last twice as long as a 12v source. 24v batteries are 2 12v batteries combined. Hope this helps!

for these panels since they are 24v panels you would need an MPPT charge controller. You would also need an adapter kit to connect your panels to your charge controller an a tray cable to connect the controller to your battery bank. And since these are 24v panels you would need a 24v battery bank.

Yes you can use a converter 12 v.I have a bank of batteries and a converter 12 v., 1200 wat and works perfectly. Consumes about 300 wat

not sure as it is rated for 24 volts power source. Try it, it wont hurt it.

Be careful. There are two 24V batteries. One is call enhanced 24V battery which is not interchangeable with the standard 24V battery.

You will need a deep cycle battery, or battery bank. 12 or 24 V will both work. You will need an inverter, best to get one rated for 2X the wattage you use. If you used 2.5kW get a 5kW inverter, these need to match your battery/bank in Voltage. 12V is cheaper for both batteries and inverters. However, you can just run two 12V in series to get 24V. 24V charges faster and uses less amps. Thus, is more efficient. Yes, this can be hooked directly to your breaker box. You may also want to get an inline fuse to go between the battery/bank and inverter. Inverter max watt/10. 2kW = 200 amp fuse.

Yes you can but not directly, you have to use a low voltage relay 12/24v to activate.

You will need the 24v to 12v adapters. Be sure that you do not exceed the load capacity of the power supply.

I currently have my 12v panels hookeo up in series and inputting 61v to the charge controller. Max DC voltage input from your srray cannot exceed 150v. So, yes, any combination as long as you don't exceed 150v from your array. It will input to your bttery bank at 12v ( or 24v your choice) automatic internal sensing, no manual switching necessary.

I wouldn't try adding a 24 volt power to this device. Grounding in a portable setup is dependent on the setup; whatever is used to ground the other devices should suffice. But 24 volts is a no!!!

I would not advise that as hooking up an inverter to one battery while two batteries are in 24v could be harmful to the battery's lifespan. I would suggest 24v on the panel side and 12v on the battery side. Please let us know if you need further clarification. Kind Regards, AW

I don't see why not; It's a spring (mechanically) operated switch, so voltage is not a concern and the contacts are rated for 110 VAC @10 A, so 24 VDC should be no problem.
