You will need 600 Watts of solar panels of 18 voltage in four places

Flames and SMS are fairly affordable ranges of panels

Forty to fifty Amps of suoer, SMS or epever PWM charger controllers are best used.

Replied you earlier but I was banned by antisp.am bo.t

Hello guys,

I am looking to add solar functionality to my system by next week.

Please, wat capacity of solar panels will effortlessly charge a 200ah battery? Kindly help recommend and state the price of an affordable brand as well. I really dont mind fairly used solar panels as I am on a tight budget.

Also, kindly please recommend a good PWM charge controller and the optimal capacity it should be for my battery size and proposed solar panel capacity. I definitely will be switching to MPPT later, but I intend to use PWM for now.

Finally, I will also appreciate if all the other necessary components for this venture are listed and costed

What does the pulse charger do pls?


Breaks down the sulphite deposits on the plates of the battery. These sulphites deposites reduce the conductivity of the plates, and hence battery performance

I hope you'll find those videos helpful.

If the batteries chemistry are the same and batteries ages are pretty close (within 1 - 4 months), there's nothing to worry about.
Do your own personal research.

dollarnaira:
I visited a client yesterday and right from d staircase I could smell acid from batteries. I quickly ran up to check up the batteries only to find out that all 4 batteries are hot including the cables from solar panels and the bottom part of d cc was a bit hot too.
However, I disconnected one cable from d panels from d cc bc I suspected overcharging.

N.B : A freezer was connected to it during this ordeal.

Inverter is hybrid 2.4kva psw mercury.

Pls wat could b d problem?
Help pls
Around what time of the day did you notice this yesterday and what's the panel and batteries configuration?

Why are MPPT CC this costlier.

Is there good cheap ones?

This one is not even expensive. There are cheaper versions, they are called pwm controllers.

21/04/21 I have finally retired these soldiers with full benefits and 21 gun salutes. The batteries were sold off as scrap for 23k each.

How much are you buying the new batteries? How long did the old batteries last?

Y3ah, prefer the smaller foxsur, with a dedicated pulse/repair button.just that its rated for only 100ah batts.outputs only 8amps max on 12v

I have 1 unit of this Charger for sale 16k.
It outputs over 20amps at 12v, and suitable for upto 400ah batts

Let me narrate an anecdotal story. I bought Trojan flooded batteries about 7 or 8 years ago. I was topping it up with water from my borehole. Of the eight batteries (6V), 7 are still doing fine, i.e. I'm still running them beside my lithium bank. Because of the impressive performance of my Trojan batteries, a friend bought another set of 4 trojan batteries (12V). He was diligently topping them up with packaged distilled water. His batteries didn't last a year before he sold them off as scraps.

I went to his house one day and I saw his left over distilled water in 4 liter kegs. I brought them home to use with my batteries. But, I became fearful. If my borehole water was okay for my batteries and his own died while consuming distilled water, will it be wise to feed my batteries with the same distilled water?

Short story; the distilled water is still in the kegs, unused and my batteries have continued to drink borehole water. Never used distilled water on them for one day!

Get a tds meter. I use sachet water with tds level 5 and below. An ideal distilled water should have 0 tds

Like me stopped using distilled water on my 8 mercury tubular batteries more than 3 years ago and only 1 is showing signs of deterioration. Been using water from my well to top up my batteries. These are batteries bought about 6 years ago from Frankie and still firing that my plans for replacement with lithium was extended further until the lithium products are tested by current users and the wheat is separated from the chaff grin. Honestly my mecury tubular batteries have stood the test of time and to think I bought years back at 53k each shocked. Don't have any regrets
