Excuse the quick sketch! (bored at work )
Hopefully the pic helps explain a bit about what I'm trying to achieve.
I have a piece of land which is off grid that I'm hoping to rear some calves on.
Water isn't so much a problem as I have a well and plenty of rainwater.
However, power I have none of. I also have no idea what I need in order to get enough power. Ideally I would need to store power (hence the battery) for use at night, especially if I was to use solar as a power source. I would also ideally need to run lights/appliances off standard sockets and if possible through timer switches so that I can start heating water etc. Before I arrive to do the feeds.
I'm not an electrician and not overly practical, so would appreciate some help! I did figure out a few bits and pieces I could possibly pull together but then get confused with how many Watts etc I'll be producing/able to store/voltages in/out etc.
Budget also isn't huge, but could stretch it if the system was to run smoothly. I also haven't ruled out the thought of a generator, but don't know how to get round the idea of timer switches without having the generator running constantly.
Suggestions appreciated!
