The bolder indicates that MUSTPOWER has this capability. Does that mean I do not need to use equalizer on the batteries again? Again, is MUSTPOWER different from MUST ?

The bolded are all hybrid inverters, what you posted is a CC, i dont know if that cc has equalization settings.
The old mustpower is no longer in the market, and i dont know if they changed their name to Must.
The sellers here would have been in a good position to clarify which device has what, but unfortunately most of them dont know/or are not interested in answering ...

Yeah must power is the manufacturer of must products, I do have one of their hybrids installed at a location it's a good alternative to felicity

Thanks a lot, it makes sense now. The inverters arw what can actually equalise the batteries.
I am grateful for your response.

Baba, thanks a lot. I was skeptical about their CC before now.

GeorgeD1 scatter everywhere. This was the calculation i was waiting for

With 5-6 million total Solar panels inverter and wires for a total package. Wow

Many big men dey craze for head when dey still dey wait for nepa and be burning diesel.

This is the way to go

One of their cars among their flet of cars will give them this.

bro,
you echo my sentiments exactly. and, this was part of my thought process more than 10 years
ago while preparing to take the plunge into energy freedom. i just couldn't understand why
someone who could afford to drive a car worth 1.5m or even 5m could not spend a fraction of
that amount to provide constant electricity for his household.
except for peeps who live in populated cites like lagos, port harcourt and abuja who spend up
to 2hrs or more in traffic jams, the majority of us spend less than an hour commuting to and
from work or business. so, imagine spending such a short time in an air-conditioned car only for
you step out into a dark, hot house where you will spend at least 12 to 18hrs every day.
Does that even make sense?

That's why they say common sense is not common.

I can't see myself living without some form of alternative energy supply even na DC wiring, I must have light at least.

The architect that will design my future house should get ready to include a power room in the drawing. It is a must!

I no get power room for my house oo, na madam laundry I thief use.

Abeg no remind am oo cos we never still settle that matter.

My brothers, after many years of buying Chinco I'm sure there is someone here that understands & speaks Chinese English.

If you can help a brother, make una help me translate the attached manual please. Timer has been installed but not yet programmed.

Thanks in advance.

I've also come across rival MakeSkyBlue hybrid and regular inverters and as usual more expensive. I have not seen a batteryless option in their offering.

Clearly PowMr isn't bad, reason I've remained at ease with using their MPPT controller. They keep me away from MakeSkyBlue product which is the same form factor but prohibitively expensive for that product.

Speaking of PowMr MPPT, I may have a new spare for sale. 60amps, 12/24/48 auto. Supports lithium charging.

Bro lemme have your contact I need the controller

Shoot! Bro, it's just been sent to the buyer about an hour ago. I'm sorry.

In fact, I logged into the tread with the sole aim of updating on the eventual sale.

Bro. Please don't expose yourself as being too desperate o, else you'll be fleeced like hell. It was the desperation that made me settle for expensive seller online since the seller was apparently the only one having the product then. Same desperation made me settle for an even more expensive local purchase.

I ordered three units at different times but delivery was delayed due to covid things. So I eventually settled for local purchase but along the line one of the three arrived. I still have two units pending for delivery which may be soon since the airways are gradually opening up. So I'll keep you in mind.

i see a pattern unfolding on the thread where members are divided into two groups.
in one group are those that readily spend their time providing answers to questions
asked by solar newbies (no matter how difficult or silly). in the second group are those
who only come to the thread to offload their products. they give us a long list of what they
have in their warehouses, flood the whole place with pictures and disappear only to appear
next time and repeat same. no attempt to answer any questions, no attempt to weigh in
on any discussion. they are just so focused on selling...
my thoughts then would be that, if everyone else only come here to flood the pages of this
thread with adverts, post long list of wares and vanish into thin air, will it still be an interesting
place for folks to visit? will it still hold the kind of attraction it presently it has where people
come to seek knowledge and get enriched by sound discussion on solar issues?
if the answer to the above is no, where then would the customers come from whose
patronage these marketers desperately seek....?

Baba, not all sellers are technically savvy. Here is a symbiotic relationship I believe. They rely on the tech heads to keep the page going while they lay in their adverts. Also, plenty sellers here na "baranda", na marketers them be not shop or goods owners.

Few come back to thank the page when purchases are made with referrals from here. It's all a win-win situation in my books, only when it doesn't become excessive though.

Good point honestly.

But what I noticed is that unlike the hobbyists, only a few of those marketers even know the nitty gritty about AE or even about what they market cos as you said, it's only about business for them. The only questions that they may feel obliged to answer is the price, not even the features or specs of what they market. I wouldn't blame them for that though cos they need to sell while for most of us here, it's the hobby and the pleasure that comes with it. Don't even be surprised if most of the sellers here rely on gasoline generators instead of easily setting up theirs.

It's the few of the hobbyists here who have at one time or another had to sell off their old systems due to upgrades or who have spares of components that usually fall into the category of sellers who also have time to answer questions here. Even those category mostly sell at discounted prices less than the prevailing market price which further buttress the point that for them, it's majorly the pleasure that comes with using AE while for the other category, it's about the Awolowos.

So I'll say we can cut 'em some slack if they don't readily volunteer so much answer if it doesn't directly concern their wares. Our problems with 'em should come when they seem not to know jack about the specs of the product they advertise to us on here, like for instance the other time that one of us needed to do the capacity test on the Felicity lithium to alert us all here to the over-declared capacity, an info which the seller is supposed to have at their fingertips.

It doesn't make sense and is annoying for me to spend so much to acquire something before I could know the true state of the specs while the marketer smiles to the bank on my purchase misfortune.

These set of people can be annoying...

One of the reasons I like solar/inverter is because it is noiseless but these neighbours defeat my aim with the noise from their generators.

I guess I either take it upon myself to educate them about renewable/alternative energy so that they can dump their generators or I will have to relocate to an uninhabited island to have my much desired quiet.

The three ports is the relay. It opens and connect whatever load you want to control. One is the common (C), one is Normally Open (NO) and the other is Normally Close (NC). You need to use only one leg to break the circuit, I usually use the L leg.
The two ports are for powering the Timer. L and N goes in there.

Thanks but I've done the connection. Completely online now. My issue is with the programming / timer setting. I can't seem to get around it.

The one operational now has just been put on permanent "on" position. Even to get there was small wahala. No shaking sha, I go figure am out.

OK. You need to first set the time. Press the clock and use H and M to select hours and minutes. Use D to select the day. Now when you press the programme button P, you get to select the ON time, and day/days, press P again, you get to set OFF time and day/days. That will complete programme 1. I think you can set up to 16 or so different ON/OFF schedules depending on your model.

I thought this may be useful to someone. Hopefully with the wealth of knowledge here, someone may be able to help impact it on others.
