Thanks, bro.

Oh that's problem hybrid, their repair / parts are not easily accessible, and they can be expensive sha... They are technically charging you to fix the inverter and possible solar charge controller.

It's better you add that 85k and get a transformer based inverter. Leave Wahala for who get am, since you already have a separate CC

Thanks chief. Can you recommend some brands that are very durable and reliable? Also, Can 3.5kva of such an inverter with 2 x 250ah tubular batteries power a submersible pump?

When wattage is hidden be rest assured is not energy efficient. I know this from a popular brand called Nexus.

If you load it with 10KG, it will consume 1.35Kwh, that is 56watts per hour average..

Expect the wattage range between 50w to 100w..

shebi when I dey talk, marketers go dey tackle me.

e just be like buying an All-in-One Desktop PC, or buying TV wey get inbuilt DVD player,
1. you can't acertain quality or true capacity of the other
2. should 1 go bad, the other automatically becomes unAvailable/bad
3. should you have reasons for upgrade, you're forced to upGrade them both
4. if at end of the day, you decides to abandon the inBuilt, in favour of a dedicated one, you would have wasted the money spent on it
5. during repairs or purchase, you're charged way more than the 1 + 1 e.g seperately, they cost 5 naira and 3 naira, making 8 naira, don't expect to pay 8 naira. you might be paying anywhere from 10-naira and above. if e get wahala nko, you are charged for repair of both, even when it's just one of them that's faulty. yes if you price the inBuilt seperately in market, e go look like say e cheap BUT no forget that one complete, the one wey dey inside no complete and e dey share many things and also, even the quality + capacity no fit reach that dedicated one in the market.


it's even funny whhen I see people advertising or buying TransformerLess (sachet) inverter above 2KVA. That thing no dey too strong. it's even worse when you buy the inferior brands. e get reason why I no dey like spend much buying all these portable bluetooth MP3, headset, etc. once e spoil, it's difficult to repair OR not woorth the added cost.

in fact if you too carry am go electrician place, dem go tire to dey repair am.

Thanks chief. Can you recommend some brands that are very durable and reliable? Also, Can 3.5kva of such an inverter with 2 x 250ah tubular batteries power a submersible pump?

To power your deep freezer / chest freezer / (submersible) pumping machine, etc no be wahala. issue is, you would be stressing those batteries to detriment of their life span. 2pcs is too few + that 250AH sef, how sure are we it's capacity is even up to 200AH to begin with.

What I suggest is, except you have large battery bank, get a fuel generator for things such as pumping machine. If it's [chest] freezer / fridge of small capacity, you could power it during the day when the sun is out. That's assuming your solar panels is sufficiently sized.

Meanwhile, you failed to mention the Horse Power of the submersible pumping machine. We need such information also

If you want to buy inverters as much as possible avoid Chinese brands e get why.
You are better off with Indian brands.

Chinese has this bad habit of designing system such that when they have issues, you get a new one.
I will recommend vil power, easy maintainance and support.

Yeah it's Transformer based so it should power your submersible pump. The HP matters though

Thanks for your response chief. I've both 3kva and 6.5kva generators that I use.
I asked to know if that inverter can power the pump.
I now understand it's the number of batteries that is the major determinant not necessarily the inverter type, right?

It's the marketers business to create/make sales.

It's the installer / service provider business to optimize his business/service to be more profitable with less trouble.

A good example, imagine the hybrid inverter was still under warranty, you know Wetin installer go dey face by now after him Don chop money and marketer response to warranty is slow

Thanks again boss.
How can I identify India branded inverters, by the 'made in India' tag?
Again, since this is non hybrid, does that mean it can only use either of solar or AC to charge my batteries?

Energy per 24 hours is 1.356kwh. So that means the power rating is 1356wh ÷24h = 56.5w

Vill power is Chinese. Is there another one in d market? I mean Indian brand vil power

Indian inverters are very rugged. The problem is they come with very low charging current. You can integrate with solar panels to make up for that.

I see. I currently have 4 300W solar panels, do I need to add more?

I read somewhere on this thread that transformer based inverters are power hog, that they drain battery juice on their own. Is that true.

zeestone99:

Vil power and vill power are they the same?

Vil power is now vil Lucas (I think the management changed)

Even if vil power is Chinese, it is owned by a Nigerian, so you have access to replacement parts (the idea of avoiding Chinese inverters is because of the maintainance /after service)

The world of electronics is a fragile market. When you are fortunate with a product it is well praised but otherwise when it goes south.

A branded hybrid inverter worth 350k was fried twice by lightning while a so called "Chinese" inverter worth 30k stay put without issue in the same location and condition. Na so the market be.

The market is also like Nigeria telecom network, na the network wey dey close to your house be your friend.

Hello house. Pls one quick question that i need a possible solution for.
My 2HP 1.5kw rated submersible pump draws about 2.4kw when being used. Later found out that it was installed with a 1.5mm cable.
Even tho my system (5kw inverter, 3kw solar array and 12kwh LiFePO battery) can power it on sunny days, i am more concern on the battery on cloudy days. Hence my question...

1. Do i get more solar panels to cope with the current draw esp on cloudy days? OR
2. Reinstall the pump with a bigger cable like
2.5mm or 4mm cable to reduce current
draw.

Hello bro,

Sincere empathies on the damage of your inverter.

I sell a 3000w EASun offgrid energy-efficient inverter. Below YouTube link shows a video sent from customer who used it to power a 0.5hp inverter effortlessly.

I am happy to offer you a money-back guarantee if the inverter doesn't meet and even surpass your expectation. Chat me up. Terms and Conditions apply

Meanwhile, you may need to consider increasing your existing battery bank to cushion the effect of current draw in powering the pumping machine. Better still, increase your solar array or pump only during peak sunlighg.

Increase cable, energy saving is better than energy generation

overTrue

Thing that's worked for me are -

1. avoiding complexities. get an inverter wey no go spoil any how BUT even when it goes bad, you ain't forced to use exact same parts.

2. Also the less Features , and Smartness, the better.

3. Also try avoiding slim, compact, miniature designs. The more compact it is, the more likely that would add to it's woes.

4. Always ensure your inverter is connected to a lightening surge conductor

5. MAYBE buy a product / brand used by more people. Since it's used by more ppeople already, there's likelihood it's parts are everywhere and CHEAP. Getting parts for HP laptops, Teckno, Gionee phones, etc are much cheaper and easier than certain others. in fact some have had to abandone their laptop or phones due to not being able to get it's parts and even when they did, it cost thhem a lot.


Transformer based inverters are not that much a powerHog except when poorly designed.

Also an inverter that doesn't try to do EVERYTHING (all features) Housed in a not-Slim body often works best and when it goes bad, repair is easier because even the parts and panels are easier to work on. Phone engineers go understand wetin I dey try talk here. Abeg no vex, I am out of time. Byeeeee

2. Reinstall the pump with a bigger cable like

draw.

I would be brief because I'm out of time and need get back to work.

Size of cable / wire doesn't necessarily affect current draw much. using properly sized cables is better to avoid wastes of current in form of heat (the wire go dey warm/hot). In fact, my guide is - the Wire is NEVER too thick AS the Thicker, the better.

As for increasing the size of solar panels, if you could afford such, please do because again to me, Solar panels IS NEVER too much. If excess, then less stress is on the batteries during sunny hours.

As for your pumping machine, what exactly are you doing with 2HP pumping machine ? In most residential houses, 0.75HP (less stress for solar system) and 1HP (equally less stress for solar system + PUMPs faster than 0.75HP) is often enough.
I'm sorry but I'm in a hurry to reason so make I allow others add theirs.

---

in your case, would suggest you increase THICKness of the wire, and also increase size of your Solar panels.

Reason to increase Wire thickness: When you increase thickness of the wire, or can confirm that when it's working, the Wires are not Warm / Hot, then you have eliminated WASTEs and reduced chances of fire accidents.

Reason to add More Solar Panels: With more panels, you get more Voltage and/or Current, hence during sunny hours (during the day), there would be less stress/demands on your battery bank. of course during cloudy annd rainy days, you have lless worries.
Now please ensure you always use MPPT charge controller when ever thhe Size of your Solar panels is much excess relative to battery bank. This is because with PWM, the difference mostly is wasted in form of HEAT, but when paired with a good quality MPPT, those differences ain't just burnt as heat, but converted and fed into the battery. For ma eye, I see PWM as a simple resistor circuit.
