If the voc of both is dsame u can parallel with very little loss(10-20w)
If the isc is dsame u can series.
Ive tested this with 545w n 460w both av voc of 50 n 49.6
But b4 all this decisions can go, u need to put ur CC into consideration eg ur mppt operating voltage range, max voc, max amp etc

Am using powmr 60a

Trippledots:


About 2.7kw ish...they are slightly different from each other.

Thought the maximum panels for 24v is 1440watts?

toscotech:



I don't know for now but have later get 250w 2

Will work

dollarnaira:

Will work

Thanks.🤝

Which model
Aluminum body or plastic body

Boss. I have 1500w pv already. Planning on adding 900w, is it ok I add it to my 60amps mppt cc?

Jefferyzz:

Plastic body

The 2 images u sent is 250w of same voc n isc. U can series it.
Ur CC max voc is 150vdc
D mppt working voltage is 30-150vdc
Anything below 30v will make ur mppt will work as pwm so I won't advice putting d 2 panels in parallel.
Since ure connecting them in series just look for panels with same isc 8a+ as ur 250w(even if it's 400w eg 49v 8.2a) and make sure ur total voc no go above 150v.

I don't understand you sir


I don't know the 200w configure

Drgreatone:

Nominal power @24v is 1,440w. But in reality your battery voltage can get up to 29v..that gives about 1.7Kw

Series connection - adds up voltage n picks lowest amperage in an array
Parallel - adds up d amperage n picks lowest voltage. Use this along side ur CC spec to arrive at d best decision.
Check ur 200w panel name plate for d info

What happened is that the person that install it before said i should not buy any panel above 200w since we have used 200w before

But this new installer said we can add another wattage of Panels that what is given me issues

Available now

Cloud 12v 200ah lithium battery. Open box

I bought is N352,100 as at November 2022. Unfortunately it is now almost 500K

Thanks I will try to get it on Thursday.

How do u manage to now use 2.7kw of panels on the CC? I'm sorry for my too nany questions

emmaniche:

Boss bawoo, i dey learn besides most ppl here oooo. How many batteries are u using and what's the configuration i.e 12v or 24v or 48v?

NiyiOmoIyunade:
The online voltage drop calculators say that you are fine.

If your transmission distance increased more than 6m one way, the answer could change quickly.

This my oga has been quiet for a while. Hope he is fine?

Chairmo, how far?

Just checking on you sir.

finebois:

Make sure you get it from a Foauni store if there is a Foauni store in your city. Tell them LG Inverter Fridge-Freezer combination. Anything between 300 -350L. Dont go above 350L.

emmaniche:

Add up the entire maximum current of your Solar panels (both what you have now, plus the extras you intends getting). If it's less than 60A, then your 60A MPPT charge Controller should work else reduce accordingly.
Don't forget the wattage also.

learn to know how to help yourself so you rely on people less. It's much faster and reliable

You funny. SomeOne whom you paid to work for you gave a suggestion,
another gave a counter suggestion, you went ahead to do the bidding, only to now come asking us in here.

Are you looking to clear your conscience ?

Ask ur installer to bring down 1 panel first, check d spec n use the info provided in our previous conversation to make ur decision. Nothing confusing, u fit just pay d installer more for d added stress, it's not something that can't b done.

Can someone please recommend me a good solar/inverter battery brand that would last me up to 5 years before packing up?

ALRIGHT

My location we hardly see NEPA light. It's been months since the last time.

I need to power

140 watts Hisense deep freezer (1)

80 watts 50" LG smart TV (2)

80watts fan (2)

GoTV (2)

85 watts Sound Bar (1)

5 watts bulbs (6)

I can run the freezer 5 hours daily. It's enough to serve till next day.

I work from home so always at home.

An installer gave me a quotation of N1,342,000
All Felicity products

400w solar panel 2pieces 12500 each=250000
200ah battery 2pieces 260000 each=520000
Inverter 1.7kva=250000
Chargecontroller 30ah 28v =120000
And other installing accessories152000
Workman 50000
Total=1342000

Another installer 👇🏼

400watts mono-75k (foreign used)

200ah Altimate Batteries= 220k

Inverter 2.5kva 24v mopower = 280k

Charge controller 30A = 85k

Another installer asked me to use Foreign used panels and inverter with new lithium battery.

At this stage I'm confused, reasons I got here.

Been doing research online and found this thread.

Pls I need guide from gurus in the house so I don't make a mistake.

I'm ready to do the installation this week if I'm convinced on the best solution.

I think you need atleast 2kwp of solar to effectively carry your appliances and Keep the battery well charged. With the fridge included, make that minimum of 2.5kwp.

A 1.5kva inverter is ok for your loads, if you won't run all at the same time always.

2 tubular batteries would do, but lithium batteries would serve you better at a significantly higher immediate cost.

What's your rating of the Altimate Batteries and Monopower inverter?

Are they reliable products?
