I mean the 2 systems are not connected in any way. They're completely independent.

If it stays cloudy for a few days, or I am anticipating a potential outage, I can plug in a battery charger to the grid.

My batts are 48V EG4 units. But I would go the "DIY" route if I were to do it again, they are considerably less expensive.
