DMerciful: correct!! I thought u meant to charge the fan battery with the car, via a parallel connection. ...but yeah, I've run that rechargeable fan with a 100ah battery so I agree. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by EnigmaticEnigma(m): 7:16pm On Feb 16, 2017 |
Expl0rers: then, I really don't see how you can run it off a DC source without any form of inverter (car or house inverter) ![]() |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by EnigmaticEnigma(m): 7:20pm On Feb 16, 2017 |
has anyone used on of those rechargeable bulbs before? the time you screw in ur light fixtures, lick a regular bulb. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Expl0rers: 7:22pm On Feb 16, 2017 |
EnigmaticEnigma: Thanks bro. I'll find another option |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by EnigmaticEnigma(m): 7:57pm On Feb 16, 2017 |
Expl0rers: if you really wanted to cheap it out, then you could get a cigarette lighter socket and a cheap car inverter N5,000. Then you would have to wire the cigarette lighter socket to the battery, then plug in your car inverter into the cigarette lighter socket and then plug your fan into the car inverter AC socket. Then you still have to worry about charging the battery eventually ![]() Seems like a long tin sha, but doable. |

anidat77:What is the capacity of the batteries. Your load seem very small 200w for 8 hours is about 66Ah... If those are 200AH batteries then we are talking about 16% of dod. And 33% if 100Ah ...In any case I would be concerned by the why so to prevent future occurance. Size of your cable, size of your panel length between PV cc and cc to battery. A picture would also help. All this is so that house can look at your installation and make suggestions . Prima facie it would seem u were bitten by the threaded series parallel connection problem.. this problem can be miltigated by using proper cables and getting equal length from charger to battery. Using battery balancer and equalisers also help.. for now stick to 2 good batteries since you have a 24v system.. try to see if you can put the bad battery under sustained charge to see if it can be woken but don't count on it. |

dapsyra: As at now (Today) this particular equalizer in the url is finished (Out of stock). You may try this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Battery-equalizer-HA02-4-X-12V-used-for-lead-acid-batteris-Balancer-charger-for-48V-Gel/32530155274.html? |

Thanks for all your comments dapsyra: bigrovar, DMerciful. @ DMerciful...the solar panels are located 90 feet from the charge controller.They are connected with 16mm cables , though the pannels are 6pcs of 200w, connected 2 series x 3 parrallel , 1 harvest a max voltage of 70v and current 9 amps on good days to my 40amps epsolar tracer-A charge controller which charge to my 24v battery bank and also inverter, @dapsyra & bigrovar : Can I also use same battery equalizer for my 4 batteries , 24 v setup? or are there other devices for 24v setup since it clearly states the device you recommended is for 48v setup. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by DMerciful(m): 12:09pm On Feb 17, 2017 |
Are you sure the cables are 16mm? I am talking of the core diameter and not the insulation diameter. If its actually 16mm then check that the panel inclination is about 7 degrees to the horizontal facing south...you are likely to have more harvest but know that harvest depends on the load (state of charge of battery) on the controller. Also use timer switch to put on ur refrigerating loads between 10am-3pm that way solar does more of the powering and as such appreciable power is harvested from the sun.

anidat77: The equalizer can be used for 24v. It will balance any four 2.4v-12v batteries irrespective of how they are arranged. |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by chikkaobi(m): 6:40pm On Feb 20, 2017 |
Got Charge Controller MPPT30A for a single 200AH battery, however I saw Battery Capacity configuration which says >= 300AH(Meaning greater or equal to 300AH) My question is; Can I still use this charge controller on a single 200AH battery without issue? |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Penuelseun(m): 5:24am On Feb 21, 2017 |
Good morning my ogas, I want to power a signboard with 5 energy saving bulbs with a solar powered inverter that will switch on at 7pm & off at 6am, I also want it to be automatic, pls how do I go about it, i.e list of the things I will need. Thanks |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by JUO(m): 12:09pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
Penuelseun:you don't need inverter. Just get dc bulbs, cc with dc load or digital timer, you are done |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Penuelseun(m): 12:38pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
JUO:How |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Saipro(m): 1:44pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
JUO: Won't even need a timer switch if the CC has load control, like the Ep Solar MPPT controllers (IT3415ND, IT4415ND and IT6415ND). The periods it powers the DC loads on and off are programmable. You could even run multiple time schedules or base it on sunlight times. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by efuro(m): 2:27pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
chikkaobi: lets have your full config. or setup by listing them out. few pix can quicken your request from those with similar CC you may also add your intended load! alternatively go back to classroom by reading from page one. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by efuro(m): 2:31pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
goddyior24: grounding was discussed few pages back. try and check to avoid repetition pls. check these addition pages by Mank1234 =>https://www.nairaland.com/390522/solar-energy-complement-fta/151#47676906 and https://www.nairaland.com/390522/solar-energy-complement-fta/151#47678332 |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by chikkaobi(m): 3:20pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
efuro: Here is the picture of the CC working. Couldn't get the load A, because my inverter is connected directly to the battery. Though I watched some video on youtube which stat that the CC is just a rip-off, because it doesn't have an Inductor, and would waste energy. Any Idea the effect it might have on the battery? If it isn't good, I will be ok if you could suggest a CC.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by DMerciful(m): 5:18pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
The Atracer of 20A (Tracer2210A) can do this job perfectly. He just need a 50AH deep cycle battery, 150W panels and the CC Tracer2210A . The CC is fully time programmable. Saipro: |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by efuro(m): 6:54pm On Feb 21, 2017 |
chikkaobi: Are u using hybrid inverter? Pls love ur CC. A good CC will save u huge money eventually. left to me just ground Dat ur cc casing with d bus bar for grounding in ur setup. Don't ascribe to + or - earthing till u have funds for dc arrestor Explore other options from guru pls. |
