mvphenryeto5: You still didn't get the point. See enh right now: Today 26/3/24 12:05pm 115w freezer 50w tv 12w tv box 2 rechargeable fans 1 100w peddling for sewing All working... On just 100ah LifePO4. You cant try it with 220ah tubular. N.B 3 days ago I plugged in 1250w hair dryer. Try this on 220ah tubular e go pack up less than a year. THIS IS THE POINT!!! 5 Likes |

mvphenryeto5: Bro me sef dey reason am say I for get 3.5kva instead.. I got 5kva cos I thought it would give me more room for expansion without worrying about upgrading the inverter.. Only appliances I use it for are fridge (not sure of the fridge's wattage cos my daughter peeled off the sticker but it can't be more than 500w), 1hp polystar ac, 55" TV (not also sure of the wattage cos I can't take it off the wall to check but I'm sure it can't be 200w if at all), 2 standing fans and then some energy saving bulbs.. Note that I don't put on all these appliances at the same time. I've never exceeded 10% load of the inverter capacity. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mvphenryeto5: 12:33pm On Mar 26 |
dollarnaira: Bro all you mentioned here are not up to 300w, a 220ah tubular can carry it comfortably and still maintain a 50% DD |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mvphenryeto5: 12:42pm On Mar 26 |
nicodemusic: Bro are you kidding me? You are the one killing your batteries and you are complaining, your loads are more than 1500w, only your Ac is more than 1000w, and with all this loads your ba3 won't charge and when the sun is down your ba3 is already down 5 Likes |

jonescosmos: Today I explored the 60a mppt charge controller and adjusted some settings. Brought charging current from 100% (60a) to 34% (20a). Please check the attached images to see if anything is out of place especially the bulk and float charging voltages.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by adrusa: 12:56pm On Mar 26 |
isangjohnson: I won't be surprised if George_D himself has cut over to lithium. With the current prices of Lead Acid vs Lithium, it probably doesn't make sense to build a large Lead Acid Bank. For those who are starting off with small load and few batteries, lead acid may be okay. But for large loads and large battery banks, Lithium is a no brainer. 3 Likes |

mvphenryeto5: Pls tell me one person with one tubular on freezer? We are all here to learn. Start up of the freezer is roughly 700w to 900w oooo. That it the annoying part 50% DOD ROUGHLY dat is 110k for 330k. 105ah LifePO4 is 280k with 12yrs or more. Most of are being deceived by 220ah that is already fake. 1 Like |

nicodemusic: You may have to return the Charging Amp of the CC, I asked you to adjust your Inverter Charging Current, Not your Charge Controller. Just return your CC Current back to 60A because that is dependent on the amount of Solar Energy you have from your Panels. 1 Like |

dollarnaira: I use my freezer on one AGM ba3 during the day when sun is up, do you use your 105ah on freezer at night? For how many hours? 2 Likes |

Reading these several Lithium vs Tubular takes... Sincerely, not everyone can afford Lithium at a go, but my worry is the way these Tubular now flood our market. It leaves something to be worried about. If not exaggerating, there'll be over 200 different brands of these Tubulars available in Nigeria currently and that's where a lot would simply sink there hard earned money on thrash. I also started with 2 pcs used Sealed Lead Acid battery few years back ![]() ![]() So my honest opinion is people going for these Tubulars should reach for reputable brands to effectively enjoy their invested worth. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by nicodemusic(m): 5:00pm On Mar 26 |
jonescosmos: Thanks a lot chairman.. I also noticed this.. I shall return it to 100% immediately.. Unfortunately, I'm yet to find a way to adjust the charge settings on the inverter. Pls help me confirm if the other settings on the cc are good.. Bulk, float voltages. Thank you for your immense support

nicodemusic:I suggest you reduce the absorption to 27.6v and drop the float at 27.2v. 1 Like |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by adrusa: 6:23pm On Mar 26 |
Dam5reey: Not totally correct. Just like inverters, lithium batteries with good bms can also have data communication such that all the batteries in parallel can work like one single giant battery. Some premium charge controllers like Outback and Midnite Solar also have this data sharing connection mode. However, unlike inverters, parallel communications are not compulsory for batteries and charge controllers, but premium ones do have them. I know that Pylontech batteries have such communication ports. The Felicity lithium also have battery to battery communication. You can see the picture of pylontech battery to battery connection below.

TechGeek777:This could be an old price. What makes lithium better at this price? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Dam5reey(m): 7:00pm On Mar 26 |
adrusa: Not totally correct too, Data communication does not make Good BMS... So you cant parralle without Communication? |

ewizard1: There's no how you can enjoy a used sealed lead acid battery cos you don't know how it was used, it might have only 20-30% efficiency left, to enjoy Lead acid you have to buy it brand New from reputable brand 1 Like |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by isangjohnson: 9:09pm On Mar 26 |
mvphenryeto5:Not totally true Boss. You can buy used sealed or tubular battery from someone you know to have a good maintenance culture and still enjoy it for the next three years or more. Bigrovar sold his lead acid to someone after using it for about two years. Last year made it two years or more since the person bought those batteries from him and the battery was still waxing stronger. When he wanted to sell his panels for upgrade, we were rushing to buy them. I sold my LA batteries last year after using it for about two years. The person that bought them is still thanking me till today. Submission: If we want to buy used products, we should verify the source and make sure the owner has a good maintenance culture. This is the only way such products will last for us. |
