jonescosmos:Thanks for your feedback. Please what is an MPPT 80A-120A range and how does it relate to my proposed inverter architecture? And you are saying I will need an additional 10x550w Panels? Why? Omo 20 panels is a lot |

Oshomo12:I work Mon to Fri and away from home 7.30am to 8pm. It is really the weekends and ocassional public holidays I am worried about. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 5:39pm On Apr 09 |
Mavor: I'll recommend downgrading your AC to 1HP and trippling both your battery and PV capacity. Well done. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by jonescosmos(m): 6:06pm On Apr 09 |
Mavor: Add external MPPT between 80A, 100A or 120A to accept the second array. Since your inverter is possibly has 1 MPPT, and might have a PV limit of 6000w max, it's can't charge your battery and power your loads at the same time during sun up. This is because the load you mentioned is between medium to high load, introducing an external MPPT to the setup takes care of the charging during the day. While the inverter utilizes the array connected to it to power your loads and will still charge the battery if your load reduces. |

Hi everyone. Please have any used the POWMR hybrid inverter before? What's your recommendations on it? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Ferdiwar: 8:17pm On Apr 09 |
On a good day you should be generating over 4kwh from your panels which should be able to run your AC for 5 to 6 hours a day (I run my AC from 11am to 4pm). For the fridge you can reduce the thermostat to allow for night usage then as for the rest you can use, monitor and adjust your loads based on your battery drainage. But if you can, get a 10kwh or 7.6kwh battery. Mavor: |

Anyone knows any 1.5kva hybrid inverter with Mppt controller I can get asap. Please recommend!! |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by isangjohnson: 9:05pm On Apr 09 |
Mavor:The two key words you have used here, "budget and management" do not really corresponding with the energy demand listed here. Lol. I will advise you reduce your loads so that you will be able to manage the entire system effectively. AC can come up by 12 noon on sunny days and go off by 3. If you mistakenly keep the AC on till 4, part of the stored energy in the battery would be removed to support the running of the 2hp AC and the stored energy left in the battery may not sustain you till the following day depending on your night loads. Though the watts of the fridge and water dispenser are unknown but I would advise you should keep them on over night. Try and reduce the the number of the energy bulk at night. Whenever the weather is not friendly, do not think of putting on the AC. I hope you have done enough research on that inverter. |

Trippledots:The sms inverter has a 2kva/1.6kwh hybrid inverter... 80amp mppt charger but then u sudnt expect much from it. I get abt 400watts with a 900watt panel array so dunno if its my panel tilt angle or the mppt efficiency 1 Like |

Good evening house, please has anyone used solar panel optimizer?. What's your opinion on using one. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 9:53pm On Apr 09 |
Ferdiwar: How does that work? |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by AinsSama: 12:57am On Apr 10 |
babaegun:Great. Around how much did it cost? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by AinsSama: 1:08am On Apr 10 |
Mavor: Only use the AC whenever your batteries are fully charged or getting close to being fully charged and on clear weather/sunny days majorly. The rest of the load is fine. Forget night usage on AC until you're able to increase your battery capacity to at least 15kwh. Again, the rest of the load is fine for your intended use. Day and night |

Mavor: I even forgot to ask you. Is this your setup an OFF-GRID or Will you still DEPEND ON GRID sometimes? Because from all other suggestions you are getting, people are ignoring to do a math on how you intend to recharge your 5.12KWh Battery Bank and Power your LOADS at the same time with a less than 5.5KWp Array if you are planning an OFF-GRIS setup. (Oh yes, just because your are installing 10x500w doesn't mean you will get 5.5KWp, don't say I didn't warn you) My suggestions to you were based on OFF-GRID Setup. Matter of fact any solar setup that cannot work 100% off-grid still makes you a slave of the grid. What is worth doing is worth done well. 2 Likes |

AinsSama:Thank you. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Mavor: 2:55am On Apr 10 |
jonescosmos:Not off grid. And I said for budgetary reasons meaning na there my power reach financially. |

isangjohnson:I don't know much about SRNE inverters. Is it a good product please? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Mavor: 2:58am On Apr 10 |
Ferdiwar:Thanks. Will see if it is possible financially to increase to a 10kwh or 15kwh battery. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Mavor: 3:05am On Apr 10 |
jonescosmos:Thanks. A lot of things to consider. First, don't know if my landlord will allow up to 20 solar panels on the roof. He will allow 10 for sure but 20 is a lot. Second is also the financial factor. But your proposed design makes a lot of sense to me. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by jasp12(m): 4:43am On Apr 10 |
TechGeek777: Pls what's your experience using a batteryless inverter (bought Felicity inverter IVEM3024LI).... saw some post around 2022 you mentioned using a batteryless inverter. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by isangjohnson: 5:54am On Apr 10 |
Mavor:I don't know much about the reliability of this inverter. Checking on more reviews will assist you a lot. |
