all, out of curiosity i decided to measure the max temperature of my solar water heater and do a comparison with a fully functioning electric water heater (ariston). the result was shocking even to me. i knew the solar water heater really gets hot on a good day but i was really not prepared for the sharp difference in max temperatures between the two. see below pictures: the sun truly is the answer! 2 Likes

GeorgeD1: Oga GeorgeD1 thank you for your innovative intuition the forum is getting too boring that is why i try to introduce issues on equalization of different batteries few days ago. i still find your discovery hard to believe, it's like a bitter pill. May be the ariston is on standby mode. pls fire it up untill the thermostat switches it off and re-run/test your values. am anxiously waiting to hear your results. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 1 Like |

efuro, no wahala. i will do that. but here is my other experience with electric water heater. so, i'm a tea guy and i have an electric water heater dedicated solely for kitchen use. i always like to take hot water out from the ariston before heating it up on the burner to raise its temp to boiling point before making my tea. i always used to wonder why it took so long for the water to boil knowing fully well that it was supposed to have been pre-heated by the water heater. this measurement helped me confirm what i had always suspected: the heater does not heat the water hot enough. now, the solar water heater is doing a better job without wires, without fuel, without phcn. 3 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by DMerciful(m): 8:23pm On Feb 02, 2017 |
The ariston has temperature setpoints adjustment and it can get quite hot if set high...but then sun gets really hot....as seen in solar electricity generation through heating of molten salt GeorgeD1: |

Interestingly, it is possible to use Solar power installation of less than 500WH for powering several equipment. Power cut (mains power outage) should not stop you from running your electronics... to be cont'd. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 12:27am On Feb 03, 2017 |
GeorgeD1: errrm, good u stopped the act of taking water fromariston/water heater for tea, u know copper pipes are used to route the hot water from heater to taps/faucets, i learnt traces of copper end up getting into the water, n such raw copper aint fit for human consumption. 2ndly, some water heaters, ariston and co hv a manual thermostat, which u can use to increase or reduce the max temperature the water heater can get to, so maybe urs is set on low if it has such, 56dec c is low for a water heater |

Jean2: Can it be true that the strength of home solar applications is directly d strength of batteries? My advocacy on AE has always been bedeviled with opinion that solar don't last and see no reason why they should fall in love with it as we do. We need to prove to Nigerians that solar works and works well & remains d lifeline of electricity to millions of homes. I salute the courage & works of great men here. It inspires millions to take their lives in their hands. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by DMerciful(m): 6:14am On Feb 03, 2017 |
The solar panels, CC and inverter are durable by design...the only challenge is periodic battery replenishment. That's y I'm switching from lead acid to Chinese LiFeO4! Will share a review when d time comes ![]() efuro: |

With current price(Fullriver @ 130K, Exide @ 200K, Mercury @ 115K etc) Lithium iron phosphate is cheaper in the medium term and far cheaper and super in the long term. It requires planning efuro: |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by idsolar(m): 4:43pm On Feb 03, 2017 |
juliustip: just a thought of mine. i think you should let d house know your load, solar charge and battery capacity to enable u get proper advise. from experience, sometimes if any of d listed is not adequate, it may lead to frequent cycling/rundowns which is not good for any battery especially as u are offgrid |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Monlo(m): 5:22pm On Feb 03, 2017 |
DMerciful: My dear,at that price of the LiFePO4,it is far cheaper.Considering the cycles length,price,DOD,it supersedes SMF in all ramifications.infact LiFePO4 till take over....... @DMerciful,let's see at backstage,tanks 1 Like |

DMerciful: efuro: dmerciful, efuro, the thermostat on the ariston is at its highest. and, no it was not a deliberate pre-set. that said, i think it will be interesting to throw an open challenge to as many here with electric water heaters in their homes. let's have snapshots of max temperatures of your hot water and see how it compares with that of the solar water heater. remember to set your thermostats at max. let's bet against the sun! ![]() |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by efuro(m): 8:08pm On Feb 03, 2017 |
juliustip:i feel ur pain, batteries aren't cheap. to my view, i believe batteries just don't die without a fight, i believe batteries are constantly under-charged, you need to add more panels Also work on your loads or double your present battery bank to considerably extend their years of usage. Living off grid is a good thing. pls make sure you add more panel before acquiring new set of batteries. you will eventually smile. |
