It is people like you that won't make heaven. I was the one who bought those sunfit batteries and before I got them I came here to seek for reviews from self acclaimed experts like you but everyone went mum maybe because I didn't contact you for quotes. After I got you started saying it's fake.

Make e be fake. I go use am like that.

My broda. I can't see all messages. Many of this things have been discussed in previous threads. It's not that easy answering same questions you have answered previously 20 times over. The one I see I give my fair share of ans. The ones I don't see someone's else ll. To b honest I didn't see your question. We learn everyday, it's not the end.

When people complain of failures of equipment I just laugh. You cannot eat your cake and have it. Many will come request for quotes and will tell you it's too expensive, next thing they will get something cheaper(mostly from people that cannot offer after sale technical service) that works for a while and then pack up. I will say this again, solar power is not cheap. We already addressed this in previous threads.
2 to 3 pages back, someone just bought sunfit batteries, some will buy that stupid yohako controller etc and that's because it's cheap. Many users here just want to eat their cake and have it. If it's too cheap just run.

Brotherly, It's saddening to read someone typing "you won't make heaven" like we're in any way right to judge any soul on earth. Rebuke that line. The market is wide enough for research outside this forum before transactions.. I sometimes smile when i remember there are some old members who went oblivion due to some petty talks here as life doesn't start or end here.
Let love rule. You'll make heaven by God's grace, Amen

No Prime don't get Zee point twisted. I believe your statement was due to his Yohako lines but its dependent on issue he might have experienced with a specific range of product. The importer is quite an understanding man & a Brother tho.
We can correct each other without name calling. Regards to your family Sir

zeestone99:


U r misunderstanding me sir. I'm not talking about the size of the project but quality of materials/equipments. There is a certain minimum you shouldn't go below if you don't want headache and you want value for your money.

Sir, all these your assumptions are wrong, go and verify before concluding. The way you know the man is the same way I know him too.

Cc samnaija.

Any tubular battery that requires topping up once a month is either being charged poorly, with less than 14.3v or isnt carrying any serious load or isnt being cycled regularly...ie rarely goes above 20% DOD,.....2 to 4x a year is normal topping regime.

Too frequent topping like once a month accompanied with battery getting hot to touch is a sign of a dying battery

He has a very valid point. A lot new entrants into renewable energy make a lot of mistakes by buying this useless batteries because it is cheap. Someone would have given them a quote for a solid battery,but price will make them opt for these cheap batteries mostly
Gel.
If the marketer is giving you a 12v 200ah for 80k. Run for your life, these are fall back batteries that marketers give customer when you reject their original battery quote .

Due diligence is required.

na solar thread na sun and heat na 5&6....

NiyiOmoIyunade:
It may be easier and less error prone to do this calculations at the single battery level.

So each 12v 150Ah battery holds about 1,800Wh and the max discharge at C10 is 180w per battery while at C20 is 90w per battery.

I do not believe any of these basic lead acid batteries can indeed sustain C10 discharge and maintain the cycle life so you are better off with;

A conservative C20 discharge of max 180w-200w for your two batteries to give them a chance to live very long or an aggressive C10 discharge of 360w-400w for the two batteries if you don't care too much to max out the life.

If you incorporate solar and your system properly sized, you may have headroom to run larger loads during the day directly off solar without depleting the battery.

10kva inverter is a no no for just 4 pieces of 12volts x 200ah batteries.
Any installer who gave you that option needs to be shot @ sunset...and shot again @ sunrise if still found moving...

Its your proposed load that will determine the size of inverter you buy.
Those inverter you posted, hope you know they usually have a high idle consumption.the bigger the inverter kva, the bigger the idle consumption.
Most.hybrids hv lower idle consumption
