What you want to use it for? What appliances you will power it with?

To power my 550 w pc
A light in my room and perhaps something else , low wattage

Your math does not look right: You want to power 500W load with 160W source. Under ideal conditions (100% efficiency), you need to charge a battery for three hours, in order to use it for an hour.

You need to beef up your solar power, and look for professional help. Once you include mains-level voltages, this is not a DIY project for newbies.

Im planing to buy 3 more in the near future
I was asking what equipment i need
So if i got a 100Ah battery i can use my pc for 1.666667 hours
+ constant charging from my solar panels so that would mean about 340w of power counsumption at daytime or 3.52 hours or some less
