tonididdy:your system will likely fail if you use 7hrs to calculate as the sun is never at its peak for seven hours, I personally use 4 hrs of sunlight for my calculations. 1 Like |

Topmost11: One reason why this thread still enjoys continuous survival is that we have near zero tolerance cheating particularly supplying wrong items not specifically demanded for (usually items beneath price paid for despite paying over bloated prices all the same). However, I will advice you contact another installer to check your PV. There could be many reasons why your PV is still outputing 2 amps inspite of SunDay. You could even have a full battery sef. When you have exhausted all your checks and possibly redemption. Nothing STOP YOU from letting the house know the dubious person SO THAT WE CAN OSTENTATIOUSLY ACT and blacklist him before he tarnishes other honest marketers or innocent hobbyist/diy who may fall victim on daily basis to such devilish cheating acts he calls business. Letz get value for money before Nigerians loose faith in renewable sources due to these act wickedness! 9 Likes |

I have 250*2 solar panel, 3 100amps battery. Last pure sine wave I bought last 1 hour. It drains my battery. I had to get 15k one which last all day. Which brand of 1kv pure sine wave inverter should I upgrade to? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Topmost11(m): 1:16am On Jan 15, 2020 |
This means I need a 257w panels to supply energy at my given time and my setup has 300w panels. BUT in all of this, why don't I get full charge after 7hrs of sunlight? Does this mean my panels may not be giving 300w supply to the batteries? [/quote] Now you are seeing things for yourself. You sre right in your calculations. Why you dont have 100% is the nigerian factor. You cslculated efficiency at 80%(why you multiplied by 1.2 and not 1). The panels you bought that says 150 watts may actually be 100 watts or even less becsuse it is chinko and not genuine; for example, highest i have ever recorded from my 4×150 panels is 23 amps when i should have nothing less than 32amps(8×4). Same msy be happening to your setup. Which is why i sm adding two more panels even though i have almost exhausted the theoretical capacity of my cc. Totsl is 780 and i am at 600. But actual readings says otherwise. In your csse, wire size, wire lenght, panel tilt/position, panel actual cspacity(ss against declared), system efficiency etc may be a factor. So you will have less thsn the 300 watts. If i were you, i will still add one more panel. But then i am someone who has very good shock absorber o. I mske error, push it aside and move on: lesson learnt, life must go on, even if it takes months to recover. I take calculated risks. I look at worst case scenarios, then damn the consequences. Yet my take home is under 100k monthly. Ali express and alaba sre my friends not the sellers here. Do you have that kind of mindset? Haven said all, i am a novice and know nothing o. Let the gurus here give their opinion when they have time. Gurus, pls help a desperate brother before he makes mistake o, money no easy to come by. 3 Likes |

solasola: Thanks sire. From the explanations on the first page but using a calculation of 6hrs sunlight. I need 350w panel to sufficient provide my needed wattage hours. This means I may need an extra 150 or 100w panel. Insert is my CC details.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by tonididdy(m): 2:38am On Jan 15, 2020 |
Topmost11:I enjoy to read from you bro and would love to read from everyone else too. Yes you are right, going by what I read on page 1 that a 100w panel is actually producing way less than 100w considering quality factors. In that note I calculated my panels of 150w will "maybe" Actually be producing 112w this means I have 112+112w and my calculations later on says I need 350w ( I reduced the sun hours to 6hrs against 7hrs earlier used and used an efficiency of 0.75 (75%). This means my setup still needs an extra 126+wattage... Using 6hrs of sunlight. Correct me if I am wrong but this boils down to my question. Using my provided details of my CC, can she carry 3panels with a sum of 450w according to company labels? Even tho calculation says they are 112w each (making a total of 336w). |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 5:55am On Jan 15, 2020 |
tonididdy: errrm, lemme help you here, go and dust all your panels and make sure they are clean, then btw 11am and 1pm, at full sunlight, go and turn on your tv, fan etc..even fridge..i want the total load to be abbove 370w, then look at your instantenous harvest, note the value, and tell us.. use 4 to 5hrs of sunlight, thats the standard here. most people rarely even hit 500% of their installed capacity. eg what i do is..assume i have 400w panel, the avg daily harvest on sunny days would be btw 1kwh and 1.6kwh in one of my setups, i hv 8 x 250w panels on a 24v setup, 60amp mppt cc, even though the theoritcal limit is 1600w/60amps , its only few times in the rainy season that i hv hit 60amps output from the cc, and the cc doesnt allow the harvest to exceed 60amps, and it has been running ok for over 2yrs now, so oversizing by upto 120% is usually factored in most cc, it would simply dissipate the excess energy, the few times you get max harvest, so theoritically, you can put 470w on ur cc rated 390w, zero issues....unless ur cc is the worst of the worst kind, nuthing bad go happen. my only concern is the Voc of the cc, do not exceed it, as most cc can forgive you when oversized, but wont forgive when you exceed their Voc edit: i saw the Voc as being 50v, na there wahala dey, i guess ur 150w 12v panel has Voc of 18v, thus you cant put then in series, as it would be 54v Voc, ur only option is to run them in parallel @ 18v, and that defeats the mppt fxn of the cc, and would require thicker cables as well, what best suits ur scenario is 2 x 230w 24v panels in parallel

tonididdy:This is where you got it wrong, when calculating panel sizing, you add your energy needs to your battery charging needs, you need at least 500watts of solar power(assuming you use your battery to 50% DOD) for your battery to be fully charged before sundown if you want to power your appliances while charging 1 Like |

oliyeniun: Young man, stop acting like a sisy. Someone here cheated you or attempted to cheat you. Then choose to stop picking your calls. Instead of naming and shaming him, you are here doing someone reputable here. Kiekie, your time will come when we ll run you outta Nairaland. I have had personal dealings with you too and you are arrogant, proud, dubious, non-chalant and rude. You are only interested in the next sale and the profit. After that, you dont give a damn. There are now too many sellers on nairaland to even consider Kiekie AKA Mrsdaniel. Nairalanders, avoid kiekie for your peace of mind. There is juo, zeestone, niyi, solardepot and quite a lot more reputable and civilized sellers on here. A word is enough for the wise. 14 Likes |

earthrealm:Thanks but sadly I am confused even further. I give up, am just worried a system I setup for 200k should last long. I have a feeling the installer just zapped in and out hurriedly. Please if any DIY NL is in Benin city, please chat me up. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 8:23am On Jan 15, 2020 |
tonididdy: OH I SEE, the installer installed a flooded battery for you!!. hope he taught you how to maintain it. to get the best out of most flooded batteries, the bulk charge voltage shud be upto 14.8v. am fairly certain the installer didnt programm ur cc like that. is the manual of the cc available? is it mppt? or pwm? i could get someone to go chk up on your system if you are within a 5mile radius from ring road/obas palace, send me a pm if so edit: i see ur cc is a pwm, hmmm, thats a budget setup, maybe you would have saved 20k to 40k, doing it yourself, if you had the determination& knowledge to diy inverter - 20k/25k flooded battery 90k- 105k cc pwm : 7k to 15k 150w panel 13k to 20k each 6mm cables/change over say 15k 1 Like |

My FlexMax 80 was displaying 0V and when I switched off the PV breakers and read the PV wires and they were reading fine and on it back on FM 80 started up again but still displays 0V as input. Output correctly displaying from batteries. House is powered normally thru battery bank and generator. Checked input wires : no input until I unplugged only the positive wire from the Flexmax system again and it was reading 112V. When plugged back: displaying 0V and meter shows no voltage. Trouble seems to be within FM80. Is like the PV input is shorted. I will like to know the possible component that gets shorted in order to fix it asap. What could it be? Thanks. |
