Good Day Everyone, Trust we all doing fine? Please i want to know of the version of victron connect that can allow me relay info from fanpusun to my phone. I was working on some diy project on my phone earlier but it was stolen so i need someone to please enlighten me. So that i can get the info of harvest and all that without briking it due to victron update etc. thanks |

ojeysky: 12v 120ah LiFePO⁴ for a 114 watts deep freezer. Cost 155k. 12v 60ah (x2 units) for each of the TVs. 80k each. It's fully charged at 13.3v and according to manufacturer specs can discharge to as low as 11.5v before the BMS LV protection kicks in. Although I have never gone below 12.4v for the freezer and 12.9v for the TVs, that's the voltage it remains at after about 5hrs on a 45 watts LED TV. 4 Likes |

tonididdy: I didn't use this exact product but I've had my fair experience of PWM SCC use. Full charge depends on the type of battery you have. But usually lead chemistry goes thru three-stage charging process each stage with different voltage setpoints, so also each battery differs on the various stage setpoints. Lithium batteries do not require the strict three stage charging. In most SCCs and inverters, the LVD hovers around 10v (around 90% DoD) but it is not advisable to discharge your battery to that point. I try to get SCCs that have LVD user adjustable parameters so that I can change the 10.5v default to around 12.2v, then employ the output as a form of feedback to automatically switch off the inverter when it gets to the set-point. I have not come across power inverters with adjustable LVD setpoint.

Valto: Actually got it off of AliExpress. So it's none of the brand names common around here. Cost was 43k5. 9ja Customs charged another 3,335 on the item. UPS delivery. |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by dejidotun2000(m): 9:16pm On Jan 16, 2020 |
I have no experience with this but I have little experience with another type. I bench-tested it and it worked quite reliably, I don't know about it's long-term reliability however. Will share pictures tomorrow. nonoski: |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 9:19pm On Jan 16, 2020 |
ceaser: That's awesome. Where did you buy it, and if not asking for so much, how much did you buy it? Edited: I see you've already answered the question on cost, now if it ain't much of a problem I'll like to ask if you can share the store you bought it from and the equipment you use to charge the said batteries. |

Dam5reey: Okay. That view appeals to reasoning. |

mctfopt: Bought from a dealer in Nigeria. He did run outta stocks and is importing new supplies by March. I charged the 120ah with PWM SCC until last week when it was changed to a newly acquired MPPT. The performance ever since the SCC change has been breathtaking. I charge one 60ah with a hybrid PWM inverter on 150watts (x2 in parallel) The other 60ah is charged via MPPT also on 2 pcs 150watts panel but in 2s1p config. |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Valto(m): 10:04pm On Jan 16, 2020 |
ceaser:this is worth saving for. just 2units of 12V 120ah, and am okay. am not a heavy user. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 12:03am On Jan 17, 2020 |
ceaser: Oh, thought you imported it. What is the make of the MPPT SCC that you using for the lithium batteries? How's the user experience? Is it living up to the hype of lithium batteries? A colleague imported this type of batteries some years back. It turned out the place he got it from used low quality lithium batteries, the experience wasn't so good. |

@ceaser You're indeed wise! ![]() ![]() ![]() Lifepo4 it's really the bomb and worth investing on... I chose the this battery for my small setup which did cost more than if I had used lead acid battery. I bought mine directly from the factory and it cost me 140k for 12v 100ah though, not yet connected to solar yet but I charge with a Lifepo4 grid charger of 14.6v 20a supplied along with the battery which charges full in five hours if completely drained. I have a 600w stand alone inverter which display function is really great. My battery charges to 14.4v but holds load of 78w at 13.1v and can go like that from 9am till 7pm and still have 12.9v or 12.8v. This load include: 32" TV=67w, GOTV decoder=18w and ceiling fan=20w For some reasons I can't explain my inverter power's this load all at once at lower power than the real power of this load put together which is suppose to be 67+20+18=98w So instead of having a power consumption of 98w from the display I get 78w. Please I'll appreciate if anybody can explain this... Now one thing worth mentioning is, the inverter is 100% power efficient. It reads 0w at idle state. Seriously Lifepo4 is the real deal, just can't wait to go off grid. Already have a smart MPPT SCC secured ahead... 2 Likes
