Solar System Builder
Enter your use case, daily energy target, and build preferences. The builder sizes each component with the same planning math as our individual calculators, then selects the best catalog match for battery, solar, inverter, charge controller, or portable power station.
- Prefills from documented setup examples in the catalog
- Matches recommendations to published Wh, W, and amp specs
- Explains why each component was selected for your inputs
Interactive planning tools
Every calculator uses transparent baseline math and can surface catalog products that meet your sizing estimate — nothing is hard-coded.
Battery Runtime Calculator
Estimate how long a battery runs at continuous load, or calculate required capacity for a target runtime.
Open calculator →Solar Array Size Calculator
Convert daily energy use, peak sun hours, and efficiency into an estimated array wattage.
Open calculator →Inverter Size Calculator
Size continuous AC inverter output from peak load and a planning headroom factor.
Open calculator →Charge Controller Size Calculator

Why trust SunPowerLogic
Recommendations are planning aids built on documented assumptions — not sponsored picks dressed up as engineering advice.
Published specifications
Product matches come from the active SunPowerLogic catalog — amp-hours, watt-hours, continuous output, and controller ratings tracked from manufacturer listings.
Transparent calculations
Solar, battery, and inverter requirements use documented formulas with visible inputs. You can see the math behind every sizing estimate before choosing equipment.
Independent guidance
Setup examples and buying guides explain trade-offs without treating one brand as the default answer. Compare options against your own load list and charging reality.
How SunPowerLogic works
Baseline planning methodology used across setup examples, calculators, and product comparisons on this site.
- Estimate daily energy demandEach setup uses a documented baseline Wh/day assumption for a typical example configuration.
- Calculate system requirementsSolar, battery, and inverter needs are estimated from sun hours, efficiency, and load assumptions.
- Compare listed equipmentSunPowerLogic compares published product specifications against the baseline sizing estimates for each setup.
Calculation formulas
Solar requirement
Daily Energy ÷ (Sun Hours × System Efficiency) → Solar Array Requirement
Battery requirement
Daily Energy ÷ Usable Battery Fraction → Battery Capacity Requirement
Inverter requirement
Peak AC Load × Surge Margin → Inverter Capacity Requirement
These are planning estimates, not professional electrical designs. Always verify sizing for your specific loads and installation.
