		matt-p 44 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Data centers are transitioning from AC to DC Solar and battery are already at 48v in most cases, so you are avoiding converting it to AC. I agree, it's unserious to suggest a cooker or something high power is going to run off of 48v. But for loads like lights, PC/Laptop/TV/Audio 16a at 48v is ~770W which is adequate for these devices.

Both solar and batteries voltages vary wildly and require a converter to use.
