bigrovar: exactly my thoughts. you have too many power guzzling appliances. kindly re-check the nameplate power specs or best still use a watt meter. pay particular attention to the home theater, surround system and cpu. if they really consume that much power, it may be better to just replace them and get more recent and energy efficient models. your present load outlook is 3575w going by your list above. unless you do a proper load audit and confirm the actual power requirements of the items already identified above, you may need up to 5kva inverter to carry your house. however, i'm sure this figure will come down after you re-adjust the high load items downwards. |

Good night kiekie1, l have luminous 2.5kva 36v with three 150ah battery, how many 200w mono solar panels are needed for appropriate charging ? Thanks. 1 Like |

purplekayc: A normal 1000watts home theatre can not consume more than 70watts at a moderate volume 4 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Ferdiwar: 7:56pm On Jun 05, 2017 |
garbamaza: Your total or average consumption will help in the sizing of your solar array, try and determine your power consumption in a day. |

Ferdiwar:I will review it again |

purplekayc:just drop the model of your device I will give you the watt. But a home theatre with a 3ohms speaker should not consume more than 120w max. Please take note. A plasma tv will consume more than 180w 1 Like |

purplekayc: You need a watt meter first... Now I have understanding about what all my appliances consume.. I just realised my Inverter Idle mode is 18Watts.. The DC meter below I found most accurate for Battery voltage as in State of charge..

purplekayc:Bros. Those figures are still too much for a sound system. My 1200w LG 5.1 sound system uses just 18w at seriously disturbing your neighbors volume. If you want to do this properly. Get a watt meter. That small device would help you save considerable sum. It's not expensive heck it will cost a tiny fraction of what you will end up spending.. 5 Likes |

Hi, I need an advice urgently. I want to install 5kva inverter in a duplex,to power 3 led tvs, 1 Ac 1.5 kva all light and 4 fans. Pls, how many batteries do I need? And what products I better? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bigrovar(m): 10:49am On Jun 06, 2017 |
smilingbolar: Bros we are not magicians here.neither do we have super cow powers. If you need up with sizing of inverter and battery bank you need to supply proper data that would allow us to help. Get a watt meter it's less than 10k and do proper energy audit and then come here with the result and see if we don't help. |

bigrovar: though i hate 2 things about my 60a epsolar cc, especially the first point, its standard on MS n fangpusen CC 1. the log is not robust enough, it doesnt log daily kwh/ah harvest daily 2. its soc algorithm is wack, always wrong |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mcTrinity(m): 8:11pm On Jun 06, 2017 |
earthrealm: Lolz... the SCC SOC algorithm is designed to read in inverse proportion to battery voltage (imagine!) ... I usually see readings like SOC 45% at 50V SOC 60% at 49V SOC 95% at 47V SOC 100% at 46V.... what the heck!!!? Lwkmd4h! initially I thought it's either recession was affecting my sight (Lolz) or I don't really know what SOC is again.. But then, Epsolar is a monster!!!! vomits current like kilode! |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by nene2016(m): 8:24pm On Jun 06, 2017 |
I am excited too. Thanks man. Refa: |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by DMerciful(m): 8:52pm On Jun 06, 2017 |
It has better log function than fangpusun due to the fact that fangpusun does not have clock function and thats one of the beauties why i like it. it gives performance at intervals of 10mins which is awesome. it logs daily kwh but u'll have to view it before midnite. most CC SOC reading is not very accurate because of the size and distance of the CC-battery cables which needs the terminal voltage sensor installation cable(comes with epsolar) to improve the accuracy. secondly the amount of load on the battery also affects the SOC accuracy reading. earthrealm: |

I do not know which epsolar cc you use but my itracer is straight forward and not inverse. mcTrinity: |
