"Overview" is a deployable solar-powered shade pavilion that absorbs energy from the sun all day, and re-radiates it all night, in the form of light, heat, color, and music. During the summer months in most Energy Zones, this structure can provide shade, shelter, and an ample solar energy budget of 8-12 kilowatt-hours each day. ![[PXL_20240526_091919329.NIGHT.jpg]] ![[Overview Pavilion - Soak 2024 - Full Technical Model (1).jpg]] ## Bill of Materials: | Item | Quantity | Price per item | Total Cost | Reference Link | | -------------------------------------------------------- | -------- | -------------- | -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | | **Structure** | | | | | | 1" x 0.65" x 20' Mild Steel Tubes | 38 | $29.00 | $1,102.00 | Local Steel Distributor | | SteelTek 3/4" Tee | 28 | $4.39 | $122.92 | [[SteelTek Tee\|Lowes]] | | SteelTek 3.4" Three Socket Tee | 12 | $6.70 | $80.40 | [[SteelTek Three Socket Tee\|Lowes]] | | SteelTek 3/4" Cross Over Tee | 32 | $5.44 | $174.08 | [[SteelTek Cross Over Tee\|Lowes]] | | SteelTek 3/4" 5-way Cross Over Tee | 12 | $9.85 | $118.20 | [[SteelTek 5-way Cross Over Tee\|Lowes]] | | 4' x 8' Corex 10mm sheets | 24 | $55.00 | $1,320.00 | Calsak Plastics or Pacific Coast Sign Co in Portland | | Cross Connectors for top ring 20pcs | 1 | $35.99 | $35.99 | [[20pc Cross Connectors\|Amazon]] | | Cross Connectors for top ring 4pcs | 1 | $14.99 | $14.99 | [[4pc Cross Connectors\|Amazon]] | | 3/4" Conduit Hangers (20pc) | 2 | $13.78 | $27.56 | [[Conduit Hangers\|Lowes]] | | Plastic Connector Clips (20pcs) | 4 | $14.99 | $59.96 | [[Plastic Connector Clips\|Amazon]] | | Rope Ratchets (set of 24) | 2 | $43.10 | $86.20 | [[Rope Ratchets\|Amazon]] | | 18-ft pool cover (circular tarp) | 1 | $57.79 | $57.79 | [[18ft Pool Cover\|Amazon]] | | Full Size Air Mattress with integrated pump | 6 | $33.19 | $199.14 | [[Air Mattress\|Amazon]] | | 100pcs Stainless 1/4-20 T-Nuts | 1 | $18.98 | $18.98 | [[T-Nuts\|Amazon]] | | 20pcs Stainless Phillips Countersunk 1/4-20 x 3/4" bolts | 4 | $6.63 | $26.52 | [[Stainless Bolts\|Amazon]] | | **Structure Subtotal** | | | **$3,444.73** | | | **Solar Option 1: Easy and Expensive** | | | | | | 100W Flexible Solar Panels | 24 | $50.00 | $1,200.00 | [[100W Solar Panels\|Amazon]] | | 4' x 8' Corex 4mm sheets | 6 | $17.00 | $102.00 | Calsak Plastics or Pacific Coast Sign Co in Portland | | EcoFlow Delta Pro | 1 | $2,599.00 | $2,599.00 | [[EcoFlow Delta Pro\|Amazon]] | | EcoFlow Delta Pro 3.6kWh Smart Battery | 2 | $1,599.00 | $3,198.00 | [[EcoFlow Battery\|Amazon]] | | XT-60 Parallel Cable | 2 | $9.88 | $19.76 | [[XT-60 Parallel Cable\|Amazon]] | | XT-60 to MC-4 exension cable | 4 | $29.99 | $119.96 | [[XT-60 to MC-4 Cable\|Amazon]] | | 6-inch Ball Ties (50pc) | 1 | $14.39 | $14.39 | [[6" Ball Ties\|Amazon]] | | 12-inch Ball Ties (50pc) | 1 | $19.99 | $19.99 | [[12" Ball Ties\|Amazon]] | | **Solar Subtotal 1** | | | **$7,273.10** | | | **Solar Option 2: DIY version, Cheap and Difficult** | | | | | | Growatt 48V 120V 3000 Hybrid Inverter | 1 | $843.00 | $843.00 | [[Growatt Inverter\|Amazon]] | | EcoWorthy 48V 50AH LiFePO4 Batteries | 4 | $500.00 | $1,915.99 | [[EcoWorthy Batteries\|Amazon]] | | 18 Slot DIN Rail Box | 1 | $36.57 | $37.00 | [[DIN Rail Box\|Amazon]] | | Shelly 4PM Energy Monitor | 1 | $97.90 | $98.00 | [[Shelly Energy Monitor\|Amazon]] | | 125A DC Breaker | 1 | $17.85 | $18.00 | [[DC Breaker\|Amazon]] | | DK2.5 Dinkle Assembly | 1 | $14.99 | $15.00 | [[Dinkle Assembly\|Amazon]] | | 125A DIN Rail Distribution Block | 2 | $11.55 | $23.00 | [[Distribution Block\|Amazon]] | | 12AWG 3' 3-Outlet Extension Cord | 4 | $9.99 | $40.00 | [[Extension Cord\|Amazon]] | | 25' Spool of Silicone 10AWG Wire (White) | 1 | $17.80 | $18.00 | [[10AWG Wire White\|Amazon]] | | 25' Spool of Silicone 10AWG Wire (Black) | 1 | $17.80 | $18.00 | [[10AWG Wire Black\|Amazon]] | | 30A RV Extension Cord 10ft 3-Prong | 1 | $34.99 | $35.00 | [[RV Extension Cord\|Amazon]] | | 2AWG Battery Jumper Wires, 1ft, 5/16" Lugs | 3 | $9.96 | $30.00 | [[Battery Jumper Wires\|Amazon]] | | 2AWG Inverter Cable, 7ft. 5/16" Lugs | 1 | $41.99 | $42.00 | [[2AWG Inverter Cable\|Amazon]] | | Solar Combiner Box | 1 | $69.99 | $70.00 | [[Solar Combiner Box\|Amazon]] | | MC-4 Extension 15' | 4 | $33.99 | $136.00 | [[MC-4 Extension\|Amazon]] | | 100W Flexible Solar Panels | 24 | $50.00 | $1,200.00 | [[100W Solar Panels\|Amazon]] | | 4' x 8' Corex 4mm sheets | 6 | $17.00 | $102.00 | Calsak Plastics or Pacific Coast Sign Co in Portland | | 6-inch Ball Ties (50pc) | 1 | $14.39 | $14.39 | [[6" Ball Ties\|Amazon]] | | 12-inch Ball Ties (50pc) | 1 | $19.99 | $19.99 | [[12" Ball Ties\|Amazon]] | | **Solar Subtotal 2** | | | **$4,674.37** | | | **Structure Total** | | | **$3,444.73** | | | **Structure with Solar 1 (Easy and Expensive)** | | | **$10,717.83** | | | **Structure with Solar 2 (Cheap and Difficult)** | | | **$8,118.10** | | ![[Universe_8 (2).gif]]
