oloyemeji: Am not an expert o but from what technicians have told me, adding new batteries to old ones is a no no. Either you top it with electrolyte or you change the two old batteries and add another two to make it four. In doing so, you will need more panels |

Dyfynezz12: Bro ... convert that your N2M immediately to US. If the cost for the project today is N2M ... @ N1500/$1 ... you'll get about $1300 in hand. By the time you are ready to buy and install .... next month end... the exchange rate is likely to be 2000/1 .... the buying power of your N2M will then be only $1000 .... while the cost of the project will raise to N2.5M. With the $1300 in hand... you can convert to Naira which will give you N2.6 M. If not .... you'll have to add N500K to what you have to get the package. Hope I make sense. 3 Likes |

This is my third year off grid. For stable power get at least. 2400 watt of solar panels. I use 200w x 12. 5kw lifepo4 battery pack. And at least 3kw inverter. This is enough to power your freezer, washing machine, microwave, air conditioner, water pump etc Thay is my setup and my light is always on. 3 Likes 1 Share |

dacool1:Concerning mixing old and new batteries, does this apply to tubular batteries? Because I'm thinking of increasing my tubular batteries that I acquired around July/August last year from 2 to 4. Should I be concerned? |

You sure it was 12V? 12V is too small for a load of 3.5kva. It should be more like 24. matify83: |

denip:I am topping it with distilled water next week and i will add two more panels to make it 10 panels and also do maintenance. I will go by what you said and someone on this thread also advice not to mix old battery with new ones.Thanks |

Yampotatocarrot: Your energy need determines the size of your setup. By wiring I meant, connecting the solar panels to the charge controller and mounting circuit of breakers etc. The house was already primed for solar only. |

For yankee people install solar to assist the national grid in terms of billing or alternative source of supply incase of aftermath of a disaster. That being said, the case is different for Nigeria, we provided every goddamn infrastructure ourselves from water to light, security, jobs! Anyway this year it's clear God wants us to learn a painful lesson for our stupid actions 3 Likes |

Solar electricity is cheaper than Generator electricity, but Nepa electricity is far cheaper than Solar electricity. |

dacool1:No, the power isn't off, but we keep both bulbs on from 7 pm until dawn. I suppose the fan consumes more power, but I didn't think it would be a problem given my current setup. However, previously, the inverter would last from night until 5 am before shutting off. It's only recently that I've noticed this new issue where the inverter shuts off by 11 pm |

solar is the deal -but you need to be careful of the products out there -my dry cell agm battery died after 1 year of moderate usage so definitely avoid any indian made product. am running on 4 solar panels, mopower inverter and 2 dry cell batteries. carries only the simple devices -fridge,fans,tv and bulbs. This does not carry the AC so I converted to an air cooler instead. my plan now is to increase the solar panel to 8,and by some tubular batteries -probably 4. good luck 1 Like |

franchasofficia: Thanks for confirming because I am really not an expert just a user/customer . An yes, some of the stuff I Mentioned will hardly ever be on at the same time. Deep freezer is the only constant, cos I need to stock perishables. |
