Sorry this has been done to death but I didn't get the answers I wanted from previous threads. Just looking for some help with a summerhouse we're getting build in December (earliest slot they had when I ordered in May!!!).
It's an 8x10ft traditional summerhouse from Skinners, single pane glass and damp membrane on the walls.
https://www.skinners-sheds.com/summerhouses/pressure-treated-traditional-summerhouse/
I'm planning to do the following:
Rockwool or celotex insulation on the walls, roof and ceiling.
12mm plywood boarding on the walls, roof and ceiling.
Install a small 2.5kw stove/wood burner
Solar power
The solar panels part is the bit I have no idea about. Our garden is east facing so the roof will get around 10 hours of daylight in the summer and around ~5 hours in the winter.
I'd like to be able to run a TV in there as well as power for a laptop, phone charger, plug for charging 18v batteries, lighting and possibly a 3D printer. What's the best way to determine the size of the panel and inverter to power these? I was thinking of a 300W panel with a 1600W inverter. Does this sound sufficient? What size batteries would I need for this? Any help is always greatly appreciated
