Trippledots: Fool, your tv brightness only reduces a little and u save energy... What point are you trying to make exactly because you lost me here.. that you won’t enjoy ur tv on energy saving mode? Na wah o. Shey I don’t use solar in my house? The whole world is crying save the planet, use less energy, African man says use as much as you can just like with everything else. Ignorant people.. |

Nigeria mentally, we can only Identify problem, but no proper solution.. I'm still waiting for the Ideal set up for 3000 - 5000w Load. Also how 3 ACs can be run on under 1000Wh.. 4 Likes |

I hail all the guys here, but i think its also easy to identify a troll, they huff they puff but can't blow out anything. My word of advise "don't feed the troll". Let's just ignore certain comments and keep the thread moving. Thank you all for the great information and knowledge shared here. Gracias 14 Likes |

I sent a mail to Peggy and she sent me a quote for the 3KVA GK series and shipment via fedex. Was your inverter sent via fedex too and did you have any issues with customs? ojeysky: |

Let's try to educate some folks. Thats the reason we are here. Let's analyze niyi 19kw/19000w panel array. Is it really too much. |

Dear nairalanders, The bluesolar fangpusun solar charge controllers do not have remote temperature cable (RTS) like Epsolar controllers which can be placed close to the batteries for temperature compensation. How will these charge batteries properly? Are these good?

goddyior: Don't stress ! It's not a 100% necessity as some scc or inverter systems don't include them .. I've a victron efficiently working without that for years ! Simply avoid installing batteries in an airtight space or hot kitchen/store .. cheer's 2 Likes |

solasola: For someone Off-Grid i dont think such a set up is too much Energy is not cheap anywhere in the world Whether On-Grid or Off-grid What happens in the days where wearher condition will be poor for days? Will he have to reduce is energy usage before the weather conditions picks up? For me if i get the money i go do much more self, if it is too much for only me to use i sell to my neighbourhs. More over Niyi system is purely for Business (trying out new tech) to know how to advice His customers At the end that system will pay for itself So no it is not too much sir 2 Likes |

This is one of the flaws of Victron - they want to sell you a gizmo for every single thing. In the bluesolars there is an inbuilt temperature sensor. However it does not measure battery temperature, it measures ambient temperature at the start of bulk charging (usually in the mornings) and sets temperature regulation for the rest of the day based on that measurement - if you are cool in the morning and things get warmer during the day, the batteries will still be overcharged. Victron says it only makes sense to check temperature in the mornings/and or before charging begins while the CC internals are still cool or else the readings will be off. Alternatively, Victron sells a VE.Direct to bluetooth dongle that you can plug into the bluesolar VE.Direct port of the CC to give it bluetooth capabilities. Couple this with a Victron smart battery sense and the smart battery sense will send accurate battery voltage and temperature readings via bluetooth to the CC. This is the least cost professional method to achieve accurate temperature compensated charging with a Victron bluesolar CC. One drawback is that you give up your VE.Direct port on the CC and can no longer connect to a GX device. The best all round solution albeit most expensive is to purchase a GX device (the Venus is an excellent choice) and then a BMV 702 or other model with temperature sense and then connect both CC and BMV to the GX device. Enable DVCC and SVS and STS (shared temperature sense) on the GX and set the BMV as your one source of battery voltage and temperature. The GX will use this information to finetune the CC's temperature compensated charge response precisely. ***Begin Edit*** All the above methods I have personally experienced and used extensively. There is also an option to attach a special dedicated temperature sensor to your GX device - the required sensor is ASS000001000 - Temperature Sensor QUA/PMP/Venus GX. (Note that this is not the same as the BMV temperature accessory.) Going the GX managed device route is Victron's preferred professional solution. Again a new dedicated gizmo for one very specific task and so much confusion with so many accessories which may not work across all scenarios. ***End Edit*** This is my pet peeve with Victron, although robust and easy to configure, they sell way too many specialty devices to do a simple task. A skilled installer or competent DIYer is always required. If you want to keep it simple, simply manually set your CC voltage to the correct level for your general ambient temperature - you can do this every season change. It is pertinent to note that with Victron's default adaptive charging algorithm, they already absorb for too short a time to do any significant damage to your battery even with no temperature compensation unless you depleted the bank well below 50% goddyior: 4 Likes |

NiyiOmoIyunade: I often fear my batteries aren't getting enough charge as the Midnite Classic with WizBang Jr and End-Amps monitoring still charges the batteries a bit longer than the BlueSolars (even with End-Amps monitoring on the Victrons). |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by NiyiOmoIyunade(m): 7:37am On Feb 29, 2020 |
My Oga. The battery charging philosophy is much like cooking a steak - some chefs (Victron) like it very rare and half cooked/semi raw. Other chefs (MorningStar and Midnite) believe a steak has to be thoroughly cooked. Each will argue endlessly about which approach is best for the battery and quote tons of research on battery charge voltage and length of absorb time vs. battery capacity vs battery life.

Hi guys, I need help, I am in need of an inverter that can charge my laptop and also power my monitor ( 22" ) for atleast 6-7hrs ( my laptop gets to full charge within 2hrs), I read some few pages back and saw someone quoted a LUMINOUS DELITE https://www.thesimbaden.com/product/delite/ Please will that be enough ? Or even more than enough ? If it will be more than enough I have a 50" tv ( I only use for Netflix once in a while ) and a PS4 Pro ( I rarely play). Or do you have any other recommendation ? my budget is 100k and the main thing I need it to Power is just the monitor and laptop. |
