swagifted:There are a lot of factors to considered including the ambient temperature. Return it to 16'C and give us report. Mine consume about 151 at 27'C maintaining an average coolness at night, sometimes it's lower, sometimes it's a bit higher depending on these factors. |

mctfopt:Factory setting could be done on charging profile to make it compatible with lithium. This is possible if he wants to buy directly from the company. I did it three weeks ago. |

it just occured to me that I have an RCCB in my incoming utility power but I do not have an RCCB in my incoming inverter power. Does anyone have and RCCB or RCO in between their inverter power supply and their devices? Is it OK to set one up? |

Do you use both inverter and utility simultaneously in the house ? If not, only one RCCB/RCBO is fine at the DB where all your loads get their supply from FEGEITOK: |

Good morning gurus Pls advise I have a 5 kva inverter, 96 volts. I currently use 8 batteries, lead acid, with 8 solar panels, 350w each I want to increase the panels so that I can be almost off grid Pls what quantity and size of panels do you advise I add. What make . Thanks Cc: mctfopt and other great guys. Thanks |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 9:02am On Oct 24, 2023 |
shogbenga: The number of solar panels needed to go offgrid is dependent on the load you are running. The load is what drains the batteries. To calculate the quantity of solar panels that will recharge the batteries this load is needed. 1 Like |

Thanks @mctfopt The total load is 4.45kw, less a/c and heater |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by FEGEITOK: 2:02pm On Oct 24, 2023 |
dejidotun2000: Inverter loads are on a seperate DB from main utility DB Hence this thought |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by obitobe: 3:45pm On Oct 24, 2023 |
Obnoxious2001: You can do 3S2P but why will you do that when your inverter voc is at 450vdc. The only disadvantage i see here is that if you do series once their is a shadow cast on one of the panel it will affect the rest but for your 3S2P it wouldn't affect it that much. Advantage of the series over your combination is that early morning and late evening your panel will work efficiently still compared to your combination. 2 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by DolbyDigital: 5:22pm On Oct 24, 2023 |
I have a 12 volt battery. Should I buy a solar panel of 12 volt or 24 volt for charging. (Watt are the same and my solar controller support both) I am thinking of choosing 12 volt but what do I have to lose or gain if I am chose 24 volt? Thanks. |

Anyone familiar with Air-conditioners calculations on inverters for both inverter n non-inverter types. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 1:33am On Oct 25, 2023 |
brightk: wow so the nonsense wey I dey write for here dey real ? Sorry for your experience Sir/Ma. Glad say me know enough not to fall for such things. Some dey even harvest cells from DEAD laptop batteries sef. Dem go come couple am, hype am, come dey form alphaOmega onto say dem be tecknologists. e get reason wey dey make dem feel stressed + threatened whenever ediots like me talk some kind things. Do you know some HELP questions asked in here, are asked by people who sell solar items. dem go just ask question, sometimes tag me on top am; probably looking to see if I would flop. I suspected that a couple of times, I went ahead to verify and even went as far as putting a call through, asking preSale questions and they fell for it. Make I no even talk about some calls wey I dey get wey dem go masqurade as potential clients pretending like say dem appreciate wetin I dey do. As usual, except you know what you doing, you're better of with quality New / USED [tubular] lead-Acid batteries. Mostly, they prey on those who don't have the basic knowledge and that's where ajority of Nigerians falls in. e get reason wey mmake me talk say - the day I ready to use lithium Batteries, I go couple my own. All it takes is ordering lithium cells of my liking (I no go cheat ma sef na) and a couple other things. 2 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 1:51am On Oct 25, 2023 |
mctfopt: At times, lack of knowledge, is the issue. Might not necessarily mean he/She set off to cheat his/her client. A lot of installers, never sabi basic things for solar to begin with. And they know how to package eh. met a man who just wannted to sell of his entire solar items. this man stay in duplex Ooo. Him no even wan hear any pim different from what He wants. I had to take a risk with him, since he was a client for my line of business (which ain't solar). He had no idea I know about solar sef. Took a while for me to break things down for him BUT at end of the day, He just wanted to get back to ordinary fuel generator. The only way I could have made him change is mind is , use my own funds to finance things. Some of these people are more like Tianshi/GNLD/FLP/Tasly/etc distributors - they are after making you spend as much as they could get you to spend, after sizing you up. Even the man's panels, i couldn't buy any for myself becauuse they were nonesense. let's not even talk about the batteries or the fact the man spent a fortune for a PWM chargeController |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 1:55am On Oct 25, 2023 |
dollarnaira:which is why they keep preaching Hybrid this and that. it makes life easier for they SELLERs, at detriment of their potential customers. and they make things so EXPENSIVE so as to make it seem they're so worth it. Most of those their powerGenerators, use PWM chargeControllers costing less than 7,000 naira. Even to do ordinary coupling, they can't even add little creativity. Just from looking at their sticker, na smile me dey smile. well dem get luck say Nigerians get sense inversely |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 2:04am On Oct 25, 2023 |
swagifted:...and if you settling for a 1KVa inverter, kindly ensure you wouldn't be needing something higher in thhe nearest future. if I were in your shoes, and money is an issue, I would buy a used inverter of good quality. And if my batteries are too small to support an inverter higher than 1KVa, i would try getting a bigger inverter with dual voltage e.g an inverter than could perform as 1KVa and higher. That way, na just to adjust setting or requirement |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 2:10am On Oct 25, 2023 |
dollarnaira:complain to seller and they are never at fault. it's you who's at fault. and if you were given warantee + guarantee, na then you go no say the definition different |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 2:12am On Oct 25, 2023 |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 2:15am On Oct 25, 2023 |
ameh99: if I were in his shoes, and having seen the condition of said item, I would be mindful of spending any extra penny again. In other words, if I can't spend a few "change" as cost of transporting myself and said item to your shop, nna to cut my loss and move on. Hence asking I wayBill it back, at my own expense would be a big NO. no guarantee I would get any better spending more and maybe another more and another mre, till I get sense |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 2:18am On Oct 25, 2023 |
brightk: do you still have the item ? if you do, maybe you could post images so more eyes could see and make inputs |
