north facing panels. work begins... we attempted to use adjustable tilt legs but had to discard the idea when we noticed instability and realized that the panels would be subject to severe wind forces... 1 Like 1 Share

Boss. I am in GH and been following this tread too. Thanks to the big bosses like George. I am planning to use solar and I would be grateful if you could give me some pointers as to where to get quality solar in items in GH for installation. Please give me your email so we can talk more. Thanks. Refa: |

@GeorgeD1, Congrats on ur new upgrade. You are a proof that solar works. I'm impressed at ur high level of humility and persistence. Permit me to say u are indeed my mentor so long as it concerns solar power. May ur solar harvest keep growing from glory to glory. One luv bro! |

@georged1, very sweet set up. kindly state your total panel wattage for both north and south side, and your battery bank.am assumming ur morning star cc are both 80amps? your battery bank still trojans?. now that you didnt go ahead with the adjustable legs, would you still ur panel inclination 10/10? i can see your roof isnt so step...maybe 20deg or so -- thinking you shudnt hv even bothered with the adjustable legs in the first place 1 Like |

GeorgeD1:Your strong advocacy and time you take to stabilise us newbies is what gaves us the confidence to take the renewable leap. Keep the flag flying. My question is what influenced the decision to install panel on the north side? Is it a case of available space? I ask because since Nigeria above the equator I have always thought and in line with what I have read that panels in Nigeria should be inclined towards south. Would appreciate your thoughts. Also are the controllers charging different banks or the same battery bank. 2 Likes |

Good one GeorgeD1!! I'm still plotting which bank to rob so i can be like you ![]() I understand DC coupling is best for those with huge battery banks and high night time loads. With your huge array, over 7kw, do you think you'll be better served with a small battery bank sized for night time consumption and a grid-tie inverter to maximize daytime usage? 1 Like |

GeorgeD1: WOW!... Congratulations on that massive upgrade GeorgeD!! You keep on amazing us by your trailblazing endeavors, Solar truly works and highly ADDICTIVE i most say too. ![]() Quick one, I understand you choose to mount your combiner box inside your ceiling to be away from prying eyes but wouldn't it be much of a hassle to get inside your ceiling, then crawling to where its mounted just to turn off the breakers when you need to service your setup or in cases of emergency?? Or maybe you have another breaker between the box and CC?.. |

Good day everyone, Abeg make una help me out! We got one 250w 24v mono solar panel With a pwm solar CC, Because of how the roof is, It is facing the east, And at 2:00Pm it was producing 1.4ah when we checked the CC, Please note the battery on the inverter was very very low, Please any possible way to optimise more abit?
