Sirmuel1:guy change your mindset ooo, the guy bought 4batteries that is why His seems so Expensive, expect you are living in a flat, i don't think you need more than 2batteries no fear, just 150k can fix everything expect you want solar panel too 2 Likes |

[quote author=bigtt76 post=45010052]Nice one. Please can you share with us the circuit diagram showing how you connected yours? I want to know if the solar panels supply your house during the day and cut over to batteries during the night. Usual connection is to draw power from the battery all day which to me kills the batteries prematurely. A y thought here would be appreciated. I WILL HAVE TO CHECK ON THAT FROM ANOTHER TECHNICIAN CUS THE COMPANY I BOUGHT IT FROM SENT THEIR ENGR TO INSTALL IT, MEANWHILE I DIDNT HAVE ANY OTHER SOURCE OF POWER TO MY HOUSE FOR THE FIRST SIX MONTHS, WAS USING THE SOLAR 24HRS. 3 Likes |

For a well designed system, the batteries stay averagely for 4 years. Some special batteries last over 10years. Sinecerely you cannot compare inverter cost and the benefits BuddhaPalm: |

There's a 2.5kva pure sine wave inverter where i stay, powers my powers pressing iron and pumping machine if need be.. Full charge with fair usage can last maybe 24 hrs.. Minimal usage, maybe like 4 days (tv and fan) 1 Like |

The main reason I install the analog ameter is to monitor my load so I can have long backup time. Since the inverter does not have a digital display that's d only way I can regulate my load by knowing what each load consume. It also tells me when the batteries are fully charged as the pointer will go to zero signifying d end of active charging. I bought d meter from Alaba at about 2k and connect it in series with d positive terminal. amokemi: 1 Like 1 Share |

DMerciful:not at all bros. It's balanced. The truth about it is that the larger the battery or batteries the more appliances it would be able to accommodate. Like in my case I have 2 functioning fridges but I only added one cos I have only 4 batteries. My pumping machine is not included so as not to overburden it. It's not advisable to use pressing irons, hot plates, electric gas cookers and appliances that consume a lot of electricity. But solar on the otherhand, can accommodate a lot of appliances that consume power and it has a long life span too. I'm planning on getting solar inverter soon. 4 Likes |

Its a good back up power system I agree with you OP. I've had mine, a1.5kva with two batteries for almost three years now, it has been very helpful. In my own case I spend no penny on gen as I detest its noise so I rely on PHCN and my inverter which often take me minimum of three days if fully charged with my electric fan, four lighting points, and my electronics. Hoping to get solar panels installed soon |

The inverter comes with inbuilt charger. You can buy Sulkam 1.4kva 24v for about 45k and the 2 batteries 200Ah for 104k. So your budget should cover it. molydonhenry: |

Here I come If you are building your house consider renewable source of energy. I'm talking about solar energy,segment your solar panel into 2.One segment (4 200W solar panels) to power your house during the day,the second part (4 200W solar panels ) to charge your batteries. Get a solar dc pump for water supply,it starts pumping whenever the solar panels receive enough energy from the sun. Mind you, it is not advisable to use your inverter to with pressing iron. Alternatively you can use 'Dice current booster+optolator' to reduce the effect on the batteries. Getting a good batteries is the main reason you will need to involve expert in the field.If you mistakenly buy fake batteries,you will cry for wasting your money. The best batteries in the world are lithium-ion batteries which are VERY expensive. 1 Like 1 Share |
