. Standalone Batteries (Beyond Power Stations): * Deep Cycle LiFePO4 Batteries (12V, 24V, 48V): For DIY solar builds (like your portable battery box, or larger home systems). A range of Ah capacities (e.g., 50Ah, 100Ah, 200Ah). * Why needed: For those who want to build custom systems, not just buy an all-in-one power station. * Smaller 12V Batteries (e.g., 7Ah, 18Ah): For smaller DIY projects (like the shed light kit), or as replacements.

2. Charge Controllers: * MPPT Solar Charge Controllers: Crucial for efficient charging from solar panels to batteries. A range of amperage ratings (e.g., 20A, 40A, 60A) for different system sizes. * Why needed: Essential for any DIY solar charging setup.

3. Inverters (Standalone): * Pure Sine Wave Inverters (12V, 24V, 48V input; various Wattage outputs): For converting battery DC power to usable AC power for household appliances. * Why needed: If building a custom system or wanting more AC power than a power station offers.

4. Wiring, Fuses & Safety Gear: * Solar Cable (MC4 connectors, various gauges): For connecting panels. * Battery Cables (heavy gauge): For connecting batteries to inverters/controllers. * Fuse Holders & Fuses (ANL, MIDI, Blade): Absolute necessity for safety and protecting components. * Battery Disconnect Switches: For safely cutting power. * Grounding Lugs/Kits: For larger systems. * Why needed: Safety and correct functionality for any solar/battery setup.

5. Monitoring & Gauges: * Battery Monitors (e.g., shunt-based): For accurate State of Charge (SoC), voltage, current in/out. * Voltmeters/Ammeters (Panel Mount): For simpler monitoring (like your portable battery box). * Why needed: To understand system performance and battery health.

6. Connectors & Adapters: * MC4 to Anderson Powerpole Adapters: For easy panel connection to power stations. * MC4 Branch Connectors: For wiring panels in series/parallel. * Various DC Adapters/Plugs: For common 12V devices. * Why needed: Versatility and compatibility.

7. Enclosures & Mounting: * Battery Boxes (Plastic, Metal): For safely housing batteries. * Solar Panel Mounting Brackets (Z-brackets, tilt mounts): For securing panels. * Weatherproof Junction Boxes: For outdoor wiring. * Why needed: Protection, safety, and proper installation.
