Solar Kits That Start With the Load

Before anyone sells you panels, batteries, pumps, EV chargers, or backup power, the first question is simple: what are you trying to power?

What Should the SunKit Power?

SunKits.com organizes solar planning around the thing that needs power — not around a mystery pile of parts.

Home Solar Kits

Rooftop solar, inverters, batteries, critical loads, utility rules, and practical home energy planning.

Home Kits

Battery Backup Kits

Battery backup is load selection, runtime planning, transfer equipment, clearances, and code compliance.

Battery Backup

Pump & Water Kits

Pumps have startup surge, pressure requirements, runtime needs, controls, and water-system realities.

Pump Kits

Pool Equipment Kits

Pool pumps, lights, heaters, automation, schedules, and backup loads need rate-aware planning.

Pool Kits

Ranch & Remote Kits

Ranches, sheds, gates, wells, workshops, and remote loads need practical solar planning before equipment is purchased.

Remote Kits

EV Charging Kits

EV charging can work with solar and batteries, but charger size, panel capacity, wiring, rates, and permits matter.

EV Charging
The SunKits rule

Do Not Buy the Box Before You Know the Load

A solar kit can sound simple: panels, inverter, batteries, wire, and a few boxes. Real systems are different.

Every motor, pump, heater, freezer, charger, backup circuit, utility rate, and inspection requirement changes the design. SunKits.com helps property owners ask the right questions before equipment is selected.

Important

Not a DIY Permit Shortcut

SunKits.com is an educational site. Solar kits, batteries, pumps, EV charging, containerized BESS, and backup-power systems require proper design, permitting, utility approval, licensed installation, inspection, fire-code review, and code compliance.

Meet the SunKits Crew

Solar planning is easier when the villains and heroes have names.

Hero

Sunny Kitto

A cheerful box of sunshine who thinks every problem can be fixed with one more panel.

Teacher

Solar Sensei

The calm expert who explains watts, amps, batteries, surge, permits, and why guessing is expensive.

Villain

Load Monster

Eats watts when nobody reads the nameplate. Loves pumps, heaters, chargers, and hidden loads.

Inspector

Permit Goblin

Not evil. Just technical, picky, and often correct about drawings, labels, and inspections.

Utility Drama

Madame Peak Rate

Appears in the late afternoon with a terrifying bill and teaches why batteries can matter.

Power

Briggs the Battery Beast

Strong and steady when the design respects runtime, load limits, and installation rules.

Practical equipment thinking

Panels, Batteries, Inverters, and Reality

Solar kits are often marketed as shopping lists. SunKits.com treats them as planning systems. A kit should match the building, the load, the utility, the permit path, and the safety requirements.

  • Panel count and roof or ground space
  • Inverter size and backup capability
  • Battery capacity and safe placement
  • Critical loads and transfer equipment
  • Wire, conduit, breakers, disconnects, and labels
  • Inspection, interconnection, and code compliance
