Solar system for our shed

We had a shed built a few years ago and decided to add some solar panels that I got from a friend. My cousin (on the roof) helped me install the panels. The panels are 100W Renogy and connect to a Renogy Wanderer 10A PWM Charge Controller. Our Electric Lawnmower is 24V and we connect the output of the charge controller to the battery to keep it charged. It’s nice to be able to mow our lawn without any gas.

I plan to add a 4kWh 24V lithium system for off-grid storage at some point. I’ll upgrade the charge controller and install a 24V Inverter/Charger so we can connect to our HVAC system and some select lights in case of a power outage.
