Keemie: 100AH BATTERY @ 12V...YOU WOULD HAVE ABOUT 700WH OF USABLE ENERGY, WCH SHOULD LAST 6 TO 7 HRS on your present load. your panels i assume are 2 units of 150w hooked in parallel to a pwm charge controller. hope you get up to 600wh harvest daily from it, and upto 13amps/200watss maximum instantenous harvest? yes lifepo4 is loosely called lithium battery as well. is the famicare 1000w inverter transformer based/is it heavy to carry?....it may be part of your issue..as that model usually has high idle draw/consumption of about 20w, so for just being on the inverter consumes about 240wh out of your 700wh daily. would advice you turn off the inverter, when its not in use. however confirm the solar harvest data, i asked above...if you can. based on the above scenario..your battery would be ccyling frequently...and being a substanrd model..may likely have about 300 cycles lifespan. a 200ah leadacid battery, or 150/100amps lifepo4 would serve you better...as lithium has higher cycle life count of above 3500 1 Like |

mcTrinity: lolz. i couldn't have said it better. after our last extensive debate here on this lead-acid vs lithium thingy, i just smile, read and waka pass whenever i stumble upon any post glorifying lithium above other battery chemistries. the question i ask myself is, "how long will it take these peeps to realize that you don't change a winning team?" we all watch the epl, and we see how winning teams are celebrated. there's no season i've seen where a ucl or premier league winning coach was sacked for winning or where the highest goal scorer for the previous year was asked to go just because the club owner found a new, sharp looking, sleek untested player! so, what's the point here? for those of us who have used lead acid over the years and seen the benefits its a hard sell telling us to dump our tested and trusted banks for a new bride still going through puberty. my last zenith batteries served me for over 8yrs and when i eventually changed them out my friend who bought them called to thank me for their good second hand value. if they had been scrap i doubt he would be thanking me for selling junk to him. lithium has its advantages and so does lead acid. we should all just learn to accept that fact while we continue our collective journey to energy freedom. 4 Likes |

GeorgeD1: The smile was mutual as I read through your post, especially when you term sharing lithium experience as glorification above other chemistries when people were very specific about LA. How a good LA will have any advantage over a good littium remains what I am yet to hear. Today my peak discharge was over 120A and charge over 100A on a 510AH battery bank, can you even do that with LA of same capacity without the voltage sagging below lvd. However everyone to his own poison/food. 9 Likes

Everyone will ultimately go with what battery they believe works for them. Oga GeorgeD1 was an early mover - his Zenith batteries and current super huge 2v bank were all purchased as good deals and at relatively low exchange rates - his LA size and discharge rates are well calibrated to his needs and hence he will see good longevity. Lead acid is still relatively simple and quite a lot of hands understand it. The price gap between Lithium and LA has closed rapidly and it has so many advantages and also deltas as well - no one is talking about the stripped thread issues due to super weak terminals, voltage drift despite top balancing, BMS limitations and other challenges to overcome with Lithium batteries. Do I think Lithium is the superior tech. Most definitely. Do I think lead acid will die in a few years? Perhaps yes and perhaps not - what I know is that customers continue to insist on and pay for lead acid and we as installers need to make the tech work and meet/exceed the promised service life. Even in the Lithium space, we have fought endless wars on LifeP04 vs Li-ion, Premium LFP like Weco and BYD and Pylontech vs DIY prismatic cells like Eve and Lishen - every decision comes with tradeoffs and every decision maker will need to find his own feasible region on the battery curve. ojeysky: 5 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 7:17pm On Nov 08, 2021 |
We already talked about those monster 2v LA in previous posts and why they still can't be termed superior over a good lithium cell of equivalent capacity; price wise, weight, setup complexity and performance. The idea that a battery bank needs to be huge and occupy significant space before it can be value for money, is probably the first hurdle that most LA enthusiasts needs to overcome. Is lithium absolutely flawless? Certainly not! but does it trump LA at every important factor? absolutely, unless we don't want to speak to reality. However this is my opinion and they are from my experience of both chemistries and they ain't in anyway misleading. There is no motivation for that. ![]() NiyiOmoIyunade: 4 Likes |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 7:35am On Nov 09, 2021 |
numericalguy: B4 the advent of load testers, another local way of testing batteries is by getting a braided 6mm to 25mm cable..separate 3 or 4 strands at one end. Fiirmly place one end of the cable to one teeminal of the battery and use the 4 stands to temporarily rub against the other terminal, a big spark + sound shows a decent battery. Note. This procedure is best performed and gives more accurate results when the battery is fully charged |

ojeysky: bro, as long as everyone is smiling, i guess that's all that matters. and, niyi already nailed it with his reply as usual. i started this journey into energy freedom over 10yrs ago because i was tired of all the hassles associated with running fuel guzzling generators. the oil changes, servicing, maintenance...the works. switching over to renewables shouldn't take me back to that old forgotten era where i have to worry about whether my battery bank is top balanced or bottom balanced. whether i have the right bms or whether my bank will suffer an unexplained voltage run-away... i just want a system that just plain works and if i can get it with my lead-acid bank, what is there not to like? lithium will eventually mature, i wager probably in another couple of years and by then most of these teething issues would have been taken care of. who knows? instead of lifepo4 we all would be stocking up on lithium titanate or some other higher version of lithium battery technology. like they always say, the best is yet to come. 7 Likes |

earthrealm: The inverter is light not heavy. I have 3 panels 100 Watts making 300 Watts. I don't know how to calculate the solar harvest data. Can you put me through. The guy that installed it suggested that I should get a luminous 150ah tubular battery. He said he no longer recommends AGM battery and he said he has never used lipo4 when I mentioned it to him. What do you think about the Luminous Tubular battery. |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 5:22pm On Nov 09, 2021 |
Keemie: Tubular is ok..just needs topping up with distilled water every 3 to 6months..releases hydrogen sometimes..thus beta for outside or well ventilated area installation.. .hope ur inverter has equalization settings or editable charge voltage settings... What type of charge controller do you have?. Am guessing the cheap pwm 8k to 12k type. When its sunny, take a picture of the screen of your charge controller...that will hopefully tell us your harvest. |
