AC 100-240v 50/60hz 1.05A written at the back of the TV. Pls what is the power requirement?

DMerciful:
Not sure of trusted brand but can recommend US brand like Simphily

Ahyjo:
Good afternoon. Pls experts in the house should weigh in on this:
Hoppecke or Quanta or Monbat

From your experience, which is the best amongst the three batteries? Thank you.

mctfopt:


These three makes are awesome. I prefer Quanta as it is one I've seen in action that survived some near fatal usage

eleojo23:


How would you rate Gacia and Mercury batteries?

mctfopt:



I'll rate Gacia above Mercury. This is purely based on the performance of the two that I witnessed, though under different conditions. So, it may just be a biased opinion. But the truth is, I wouldn't buy a Mercury battery.

ojeysky:


Am using 2x150Ah Gacia for a year now and it's serving

eleojo23:


That's good to know...
I was eyeing Quanta but might settle for Gacia since my setup is kinda temporary for now

ojeysky:

Definitely on my mind when next I do battery replacement

1) Power inverter has no inbuilt solar charge controller, whilst solar inverter has an inbuilt solar charge regulator.

2) You can't connect power inverter to solar panels but can connect solar Inverter directly to solar panels as an alternate
battery charging source ceteris paribus.

3) Yes it totally depends on the hybrid spec/brand , application etc .. we mostly use hybrid _ battery designs for night time functionality reasons ! Hope this helps ? Cheer's

Peace4Naija:


Yes it does. Thank you.

Follow up questions:

1. What is the difference between a solar inverter and a hybrid inverter.
2. So are you saying that there is a design of hybrid inverter that one can connect solar panels to directly without batteries, and it will change the DC to AC, and power one's loads during the day?
3. If (2) above exists, can one also connect it to batteries, but decide not to use the batteries at all during the day, but rather use the inverted dc directly from the solar panels, while battery is charging for night storage use?

Thanks in anticipation.

earthrealm:


nope i meant mppt, though i mixed it up its 800w for 60amp mppt CC, thus u can load upto 1200w or so, based on losses and panel efficiency, as max you can get from an array is about 8o%

hi bro pls I need your help on how you install your solar panel without causing leakage on your roof..

eleojo23:


Our voltage in Nigeria is around 220v so 1.054A X 220V will give you about 230w

But if you calculate with 110v it will be 115w

Na box TV?

ceaser:


Sorry bro. I think the professional installers (experts) on here will do a better job of explaining to you. That's cos I'm not an installer.

Please good people, like how much would I need to budget for a Solar Set Up if I want to power a 3 bedroom flat with 2 fans, 1 TV, decoder, sound system, 8 bulbs and a medium deep freezer

Along the track of this; How about NXT Index batteries. Any one with experience with them.

someone should pls explain oo

every typical roof have ridges and gutters. the nail that attach d roof to rafter is on d ridges. from experience, when installing, never punch gutter, that is d water way. infact as for me when installing, I try to use d already roof nail punch. even with that i don't forget as precaution to put flashbar before and after my nail as sealant. nagode

I have never seen or used the brown carton Quanta - just pictures here on NL.

The batteries from the hitherto main importer come in the white carton - again the batteries are genuine not because of the color of carton or any numbers or codes written on them but rather because they come straight from the original manufacturer plant. This is the test of genuineness - an unbroken chain verified from manufacturer to your source of purchase.

For this reason I never buy from any reseller even in times of scarcity but rather go straight to the source.

Please can you hook me up with the source ?
