Okay. Another one to look at also is the XtraPower LF Series Hybrid Inverter XTLFH1-6KW
https://www.xtrapowerng.com/xtrapower-hf-series-hybrid-inverter/
However, it has a lower power efficiency rating 85% and no data on idle consumption. But it has local support and warranty.

Thanks, I contacted them last month and was told 400+, efficiency is low and from research I did on similar inverters(Via Google Lens scan) was 100w idle.

Personally, I've only ever bought and used Victron , MorningStar and epEver MPPT charge controllers.
unLike most people in here, I am not a full-Time solar installer / seller. in Fact solar business don't pay my bills.

I'm more of a personal user, and when I take on installation jobs, it's often due to referrals or because someone whom I suggested they go solar choose me to handle things. Reason you hardly would see me advertise anything.
Other times, they buy and ask I help do installation, hence whatever they end up buying, it's their choice.

I run solar 24/7/365 days and have no alternatives, not even a small fossil generator. Most times, when I run into those who ain't willing to spend much for whatever reason, I just suggest they buy a lower AMP rating of any of the above or just use PWM for the time being.

I'm sorry I couldn't help make a choice between PowMr and Yakoha since I've never used it personally or for clients, though a quick online search portrays them as low quality.

Just so you know, epEver is much cheaper than Victron and MorningStar.

while writing the above, something funny occured to me -

how to identify a quality product ?

it's not found everywhere , not what's inUse by most people, and hardly very affordAble to most.

Wonder why there's Tecno, Gionee, inFinix, samSung, etc everywhere , but you hardly find Sony everywhere. Even Apple products seems to be popular because most buy it for same reason they once bought blackBery products.

Anyway, that a product is from a less recognisable brand, or outRight fake, or lowerQuality, doesn't necessarily mean it wouldn't serve one's needs. in fact, sometimes, those items we see as lowerQuality, fit survive longer than the quality ones. Question is, are you willing to take such risk ?

it's difficult seeing someOne using some phone brands for a couple of months without the screen cracked or broken or experience major faults.

Hello Sir,good day.
I have been wanting to thank you for the updates you usually share here to help everyone who comes across this page. Through your resourcefulness,I was able to get contacts and links to approved solar panels and batteries dealers in Nigeria few months ago.

Once again,thank you. Please,I will like to contact you for your advice on my next installation which is primed for next week.

Thank you in anticipation Sir

Hello brother,

that the words MPPT is written on it, doesn't necessarily mean it's one. Who knows, it just might be a glorified PWM

Okay. Another recommendation will be the Onyxline of inverters. Checkout the Grovolt Amuma Hybrid Pure Sine Wave Inverters
https://onyxline.com.ng/product/grovolt-amuma-hybrid-pure-sine-wave-inverters/
It has 95% efficiency with 90A charging capacity with a built in transformer. Don't know the low idle power consumption and price currently.

Lastly, you can also the Must Energy Power EP3000 PLUS Series (4-6KW)
https://www.mustpower.com/product/ep3000-plus-series-4-6kw/
This also another low frequency inverter with inverter efficiency of 95% and power factor of 1. 35A charging current with idle consumption of 100W(+-20). Wishing you good luck.

.
It depends on what your system voltage is and type of charge controller you are using. But best practice you connect them 2S2P. You connect 2 in series and 2 in parallel. This gives a good balance between the open circuit voltage and short circuit current.

Charge controller?

1. what is capacity of your inVerter ?
2. if using a dedicated charge controller, what is it's capacity ?
3. What is the final voltage of your battery/batteries ?
4. is your charge controller MPPT or PWM ?

NB: I said "final" voltage of the battery because you could have 4-pcs of batteries and connect them either in series, or in parallel, or both in series and parallel; hence asking how many batteries you hhave wouldn't give the required information, without asking further questions.

Hello everyone.

My MPPT solar controller screen shows the electricity generated during the day.

I have someone install a double 300watt panel i.e 600 watt but the electricity generated on average days is 1,500watt. The maximum I have get so far is 2,000 watt even on a very sunny day. Is this normal?

Hello sir

Pls can you advise which is the better of the PowMr and Yakoha mppt charge controllers? I want to get for a new 5kva Felicity inverter system.

PowMr is a better controller compared with Yohako controller.

Energy is usually in WATT HOUR (WH) or KWh ...energy generated by a solar panel depends on the following factors

1) the insolation on the day in question

2) the load in use on the day

3) the state of charge (SOC) of the batteries, if the batteries are deeply discharged the previous night, the amount of energy generated will be obviously higher than that of the day with less discharge.

4) if I understand the 2000watt to mean 2kwh, a 600w panel generating that as a maximum in a day is not that bad. That is, if we assume an average sun hours of 6 hours, in theory the 600w should produce 3.6kwh or 3600wh. But we all know that due to a lot of factors including quality of solar panels, angle of inclination of solar panels compared to the sun position, temperature of the solar panels etc we can't possibly get this much energy out of the solar panel.

Thanks for always helping out.

The idle consumption for must posted is no go area.

The Grovolt Amuma spec is a bit confusing, 95A is written, but in the specs section, 21A is written for the 5000kva/4000w variant as the AC Charging.

Please do you know if 5kva Zinox iPowerPlus has transformer?

Would you recommend zinox over this Must & Grovolt?
