Hello house. For those who purchased this product, did it come with remote and adaptor? How did you do its connection? Since it didn't come with battery and is 12v, and is needed for night use only or when there is heat, I am looking at these possibilities; 1. If it came with ac/dc adapter, I will connect to ac sockets. 2. Running dc wires to rooms and do direct connection to my battery bank 3. Connecting each to a 7ah battery 4. Any other possibilities I think of or is suggested

earthrealm:I saw it that way as well. Hubby is planning to get epever tracer 40A or just upgrade to a hybrid solar inverter that has mppt charge controller of 40A inbuilt. |

olaolu11: I am not an engineering folk, so most of them terms here are so alien to me. I don't want to setup a ticking bomb in an attempt to DIY. I need someone close to benincity to guide me even if for a few hrs or days, am certain I can catch up thereafter |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by olaolu11(m): 1:56am On Nov 18, 2019 |
tonididdy: I understand your concern and share same view. You don't have to be an engineering guru for diy. I also am not one. Yes, you need a mentor. That is the essence of sites like this. Mentors abound on these site; you get solicited and unsolicited advise. It is a diy platform where you ask questions, are given advise and then you take action. You can't do diy without having bits of knowledge(general idea) about what you want to do. Before you build a house, you count the cost, right? You know, it took me long to know what a "dod" means. I have even set up my system before I understood what "float" means! But the journey was worth it. I am still learning daily. Edo's in the house, your brother is asking for help o. 1 Like |

olaolu11: Yes oh please.... Just a few hours of monitoring pls |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by olaolu11(m): 2:07am On Nov 18, 2019 |
It is compatible or with either public utility power, solar panel, 12 volts DC power adapter or a 12 volts battery. Meaning I can use with ac power? Do note that this fan does not come with a battery, solar panel(s) or a solar charger. You can buy all these separately to use with it. Accessories removed thus low price? Do I buy adapter? Key Features Power input : DC12V Public utility Power capable Meaning pls? Pls those that have purchased from the dabamat seller on jumia, bail out. I want to buy by month end or before |

tonididdy: Do you know how to 1. calculate your load 2. Deduce based on 1 above, panel size, controller size, battery size, wire size? Start by stating here what you want to power and the house will help you along Eg how many bulbs and for how long, TV's and for how long, fans etc 1 Like |

olaolu11: Bro am willing to take a private lesson from you maybe via WhatsApp. I wish you can invite me to your setup for private tutoring. I learnt satelite installations (dish cable TV) via NL just like that...i am willing to learn this too but I know nothing about load( do you mean what I intend to power with my setup?) |

[/quote Hahaha. And you say you are not an engineering guru? Yes I mean what you want to power. And I would gladly put you through at no cost; I paid no kobo to learn so why charge you. Only that I also am still learning. All the same, I will put you through if you don't mind my being a novice. Should we encounter challenge, we will revert to the gurus on this loop, quora and internet. In the meanwhile, read up about solar to have basic knowledge of the topic. You must be willing to learn, ready to embrace challenges, and be willing to take calculated risks. You have to understand what you are doing else just get an installer. If you are still interested, let me know. 1 Like |

olaolu11: ITS CHEAP and readily available NAAAH, thats why most installers go for it. the avg nigerian solar installer is usually on same level as the roadside mechanic. has absofuckinglutely no clue of the physics behind whatever they are doing.....NA SO WE DEY DO AM, is their ever handy cliche/motto a very useless cc, yet to hear any good thing about it. 2ndly, as like most cars owners, the avg nigerian is also clueless and relies entirely on the installer/mechanic ....doesnt make effort to acquire some basic knowledge.......leaving the fate of solar investments running into several millions in the hands of a not so competent individual ![]() ![]() hahahahaha; b4 people come for my head, i said avg nigerian o, so strive to be above average, if what i said is offensive to you ![]() ![]() 8 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 10:27am On Nov 18, 2019 |
queenfav: its best the whole setup is reviewed, b4 your husband goes ahead buying things he may not need. i would recommend the powermr inverter, its cheap...less than 25k.and good reviews on this forum.. the next is the fangpusun 12/24v 50a D mppt cc, less than 40k on aliexpress and gives you room for expansion. only wahala is the 3wks aliexpress shipping time. i dont know if the problem with the roy solar cc is bad engineering, or wrong setup by most installers.........so until u get a competent person to review ur setup...rushing to go buy a new cc may not be the most cost effective route to take |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 10:36am On Nov 18, 2019 |
olaolu11: am yet to receive mine, however, i believe the fan is like a laptop..it will have a port for 12v input and an ac to dc power pack. so you can either connect a battery directly to the 12v input port to operate the fan like a rechargeable, or you use the ac/dc adapter/powerpack...and use it like a normal ac fan. i prefer the UKA fan model, as it has a small inbuilt battery, thus works for 1 or 2hrs as rechargeable fan |

earthrealm: And some of these installers/ sellers/marketers get upset when you ask deep questions. I offend these guys alot whenever i am buying an electronic device because of the questions I ask. They just want you to buy and go. They don't know that I usually do alot of research before coming to them ![]() 5 Likes |

Hello my Ogas in the house, I have a question, can a 14. 8v dc input burn a 12v ups? Because I use my ups when charging and the battery gets to that voltage in the afternoon, I have been using it like that of recent but just worried about the ups not burning due to overvoltage. The ups is a bluegate 650 |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by simydan(m): 6:18pm On Nov 18, 2019 |
Penuelseun: Actually! Everything is fine, your battery is 12v but it can charge up to 14.8v its normal at full charge also, note that your battery drain's down to about 10.5v or 11v too that's when your UPS starts beeping before shutting down..... |
