![]() ![]() Generator ratings are like anything, a 5k rating may not run at a full 5k load, & is more like 20 amps usable, at 220 volts. I just love my Titan, and am very impressed with the customer service.There are power losses involved. When you add the fact that Point Zero, the manufacturer of the Titan, is a family owned American company that is very pleasant and helpful to work with, this is an easy purchase you can make with confidence.Īt this time, I don’t work with or have any affiliation with Point Zero. Whether you are purchasing to upgrade or build an RV, or as power for your home…In my opinion, This is the best value and most efficient, beautifully designed Solar generator in the world. To be specific, my Titan with one battery (I did purchase a second battery) will run my efficient refrigerator/4L Freezer and laptop (full time internet) for 70 hours. In addition you could only charge with your solar panels in a less efficient parallel array.īy investing just a little more than $1000 extra in a Titan, you get two MPPT controllers, the ability to attach your solar panels in a more efficient series (up to 1000 watts with a single battery) array, 2000 watts of Lithium battery, a 3000 watt Inverter that will run the big draw items like a Microwave, electric water heater ,etc. That brings the GZ 1400 closer to $2000) with a PWM controller. Your Solar recharge was slow because the GZ 1400 hundred only comes standard (you can purchase an MPPT add on. That draw only allowed for about 12 hours of reserve. Refrigerator, LCD lights, water pump, laptop and cell phone. Its 1500 watt inverter worked fine for essential RV living. Previously, I have added Solar to a VW Rialta using a Goal Zero 1400 lithium. The service at Point Zero is exceptional. It is very refreshing to be able to do business with a company like this. Just like most other buyers, I had to wait four months for mine to ship, but it was well worth the wait. Every time I have reached out to them for anything, they get right back to me and they are always willing to help. ![]() I have also been very happy with the sales experience, customer service, and tech support I have received from Point Zero Energy. I could not be happier with this product and I would recommend it to anyone in search of the very best portable solar generator money can buy. I am also able to power my entire RV with a simple 30-50 amp RV plug adapter and it runs everything – even one air conditioner, dishwasher, washer/dryer combo, two TVs, microwave, etc. I used two 25 amp AC chargers to recharge and it was back to 100% in just a few hours. I was able to power 6 rooms in my house, and a large pond pump for 8 hours and I only used about 50% of the battery. I ran a test today by cutting the main breaker off for my home and connecting the Titan via the 30 amp RV plug to a 6 circuit transfer switch. I am extremely impressed with the fit and finish, the attention to detail, and the extremely high quality of the Titan. ![]() I recently received my new Titan solar generator with three batteries. We highly recommend the Titan to other RVers. The Victron app on the phone is very flexible and can be configured for the Titan battery.ĭuring the winter we remove the Titan from the van and store it inside the house at room temperature and at 70-80% charge. Second, since we had the Titan stored under the bed and the display was not easily accesible we replaced it with a Victron 712 BMV that has Bluetooth and uses a 500A shunt that replaced the original. Other modifications we did to better match our needs were:įirst was to add a step-down converter (Victron, 70A) to drop the 24V output to a 12V that is more suitable for powering the lights, two refrigerators, two fans and a water pump inside the van. We also added 400W of solar panels for charging when camping. To charge the Titan from the vehicle alternator when driving we used a Victron Orion Tr-Smart 24|12 30, DC-DC converter, and it works great. The Knowledge Base articles at Titan’s website were very helpful for acheiving a van configuration. Our main application was a bit unusual since we wanted to use the system in a DIY converted Promaster van/RV. We purchased and received the Titan and two batteries in 2021.
