dammodee911: Why is your gen producing such high voltage?!... And an installer that tells your your gen isn't "producing enough frequency" without checking your gen frequency? I doubt the competence of such an installer tbh. I think your generator should not exceed 240v, check the input voltage range of your inverter. The frequency of the gen looks ok to me. |

If you look at the sticker pasted on the panel you'll notice rough cut at the edges, thats to show the panel is not Genuine Canadian Solar 1 Like 1 Share |

olopan: Thanks for this info, I might not be able to speak on the rest, But AC, that calculation for inverter is misleading, Let me elaborate abit, An inverter and regular AC uses exactly same wattage no different 1 HP is 1 HP in terms of power. Now the advantages of inverter over regular AC 1. No High/surge starting current. 2. DC compressor meaning you can reduce speed = reduce power consumption. 3. Can work with low voltage. So in the real sense in terms of power, you are not really saving anything with inverter AC Just saving the your inverter from surge startup. That's because, if it takes 5 hours to cool a room with 2 HP AC, your inverter can cool it in like 4- 4.5 hours but consumption is still the same. And when you engage energy saving. Lol, it's like slowing your can from 100mph to 50mph, You will get to your destination but at a longer time doesn't mean you have save fuel. Same goes with inverter AC when you engage energy saving on a 2HP Ac you just turn it to 1.5HP or 1HP. Meaning if 2HP cool in 5 hours, 1HP would be 10+ hours. So has energy being saved? 2 Likes |

durodee: Thank you for your submission. I will take that into consideration and have a new AVR tested to see. Actually I have two generator, the older one which is a 5kva king craft is the one producing such high voltage of about 275v. My new firman produces btw 223v - 225v but still isn’t charging. I suspect the inverter probably needs some setting |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by dammodee911: 2:20am On Jun 18, 2022 |
Thanks for your feedback. I did try the suggestion of loading the gen but still didn’t fix the issue. Tomorrow will get a new AVR to test it with, hopefully that would fix it. And yes my installer introduced me to the blue carbon lithium lifepo4 batteries, researched about it online and read some good stuff about it. It’s been barely a week, so I haven’t really tested it’s depth and efficiency, barely even had opportunity to charge it enough. No light and it’s been raining back to back. But will be sure to drop a feedback once I get the gen issue sorted hopefully. Thanks ojeysky: |

zeestone99: Funny coincidence. I just watched a Will Prowse You tube bifacial "Signature" brand solar panel review couple of minutes ago and I now see this post, about the first on this thread I think, about bifacial solar panel. Na the installation go get problem sha. It has to be installed at a much higher level than the average regular panels and placed on a reflective/white surface in order to get the max out of it. |

Valto: Hello Valto. Hello @ Ojesky, @ Niyi, @ all. Just a quick help here. 60A MakeSkyBlue MPPT already hooked to 3s 2p 360watts panels for a 48v system. Readings on the CC approach 35amps on some sun-smiling days. Now there is intention to add more panels. But apparently original Felicity 360w are scarce in the market, or rather let me say my trusted supplier has ran out of stock. And I honestly don't want to source from another point until such a time he has stocks available, something which seems to be taking forever. I know other vendors here may have it, but I've over time developed a relationship with my supplier such that he gives "pay later options" on some days, reason I'd still want to stick with him on the Felicity. Okay so I thought, maybe I can get 3s configs of other higher or lower rated panels in parallel with it, at least I can source for those from my existing supplier or a new honest supplier altogether if the former has no stocks. So is it allowed to get something like 410w panel in 2s or 300w panel in 3s or 270w panel in 3s and then parallel the string to the pre-existing 3s 360w on the same MPPT CC? Will that step be a blunder or it isn't considered counterproductive considering that the VoCs from the new proposed strings will differ from the pre-existing strings? |

Feshizzy: Firstly, the surge component of the regular compressor consumes their own fair share of the available power, a disadvantage clearly lacking in inverter devices. The surges can rate as high as trice to five times the running power. So you can have as high as 3kw for a 1.2kw regular compressor. No matter how transient that surge is, it impacts your battery storage and if you closely monitor your battery while it is both in either inverter device or the regular ones, you'll notice some differences in the backup. You'll notice these differences too if you use municipal power supply where consumption is correctly calculated. But you can also use a smart plug like the Tuya Smart plugs to also calculate these differences. The inverter devices as you rightly agreed lack that surge/massive draw, hence you save that transient high power consumption. Secondly, inverter devices aren't just for the name and not just to reduce the power, but for specific scenarios where power wastages will occur. Your regular compressor keeps working at the SAME power rating even when your desired ambient conditions have been attained. That's like keeping your tap running even after your bucket is full. There's no sense in keeping the tap running when the receptacle is full. Worst part is that even though the thermostat regulator kicks in to mimic the working pattern of the inverter counterpart, it still ends up consuming more because of the frequent surge-accompanied startups. Your inverter device ramps down the speed of the compressor and therefore consumption of power once the desired ambient conditions are achieved. Hence for a closed room where the internal temperature is kept well insulated from the outside warmer temperature, your inverter AC gives you true value for your buck. Of course, in a situation where you have frequent mix of the internal and external temperature conditions like in frequent opening and closing of the room doors or of the freezer, the compressor appropriately ramps up speed and work to attain/keep the preset ambient conditions, hence inverter or not, it ends up doing as much work as your regular compressor will do, ditto the power consumed. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Xanderone: If I get you right, you already have 6 units of 360 panels wired in 3s2p and you want to add another? You can do 2s of 410w in Parallel with the existing one because you want to get the voltage as close as possible to the existing strings, but note that this is not an optimal setup. 1 Like |
