On-grid means your solar system is tied to your local utility's GRID. Being grid-tied is beneficial because you don't have to buy an expensive battery back-up system to store any excess energy. Being off-grid means you are not connected in any way to your grid's power system or utility company
Off-grid systems work independently of the grid but have batteries which can store the solar power generated by the system. The system usually consists of solar panels, battery, charge controller, grid box, inverter, mounting structure and balance of systems.
Tubular batteries are lead-acid batteries that are much larger than flat plate batteries. Tubular batteries are commonly seen in UPS and inverter systems. The tubular batteries have a positive plate nestled within a tube wrapped in cloth that holds its electrodes' power.
Sealed Maintenance Batteries are a type of Valve Regulated Lead Acid batteries. These are flat-plate inverter batteries. SMF batteries are enclosed and sealed and hence require no maintenance. They are environmentally safe and do not require adding or changing water procedures.
An MPPT is basically an efficient DC to DC converter used to maximise the power output of a solar panel. The first MPPT was invented by a small Australian company called AERL way back in 1985, and this technology is now used in virtually all grid-connect solar inverters and many solar charge controllers.
A solar charge controller is available in two different technologies, PWM and MPPT. An MPPT charge controller is more expensive and highly efficient than a PWM charge controller, and it is often worth it to pay the extra money.
