ceaser: Max I have seen on it is 200w and when it achieves the -20c that it is set it consumes little or until compressor comes back online. The 219L has been grabbed already, are you based on Ado by the way? The BMV is not connected to my inverter it's connected to battery directly and the screenshot is from the phone app through Bluetooth Yeah the weather is not smiling in the last few days, fingers remain crossed for today |

ojeysky: After the freezer attains minus 20 degrees, what is the consumption it settles at and maintains? On and off, mostly off. But on for today. Àfàò road. So that means that that BMV can be used ordinarily without any special types of inverter-SCC communication. |

ceaser: Of course yes. It comes with its own shunt that goes into the battery. No special Inverters needed except for some remote viewing and gx device levels ( victron inverters only). 1 Like |

tonididdy: Due to nature of my job I can actually get some guys to harvest ac drain water for you. At a little token too, and gallon and transport on you oh. I think I saw some gallons of distilled water already collected sef. If you are interested or anyone else for that matter, hala me at my signature. |

stevebond007: All the places we use techfine batteries as stop gap replacement, in the past 6months have either packed up or are limping, waiting to be decommissioned. They saw about 50%DoD, C3 to C4 max discharge rates.... There was enough solar and Diesel gen backup to ensure DoD was adhered to. These were 1000ahr/2v cells anyway. Maybe that info will help in your decision making. 1 Like |

ojeysky: I have a Thermocool 203L freezer that takes only 110w at max but runs lower than that. I'm surprised that the freezer is that efficient and doesn't consume much.

Ojukokoro will not kee me... So I saw a deal of an Eastman 850va, 12v inverter and 2×100ahr Double tech batteries few months used, for less than 120k. I grab am, because reason for disposal was due to system upgrade of the previous owner. Well, I just took delivery and I discovered that the self consumption, on no load is about 25watts! Summary of this message be say, I WAN SELL ONLY INVERTER O....I never even install am yet. Asking prize is 45k. (Slightly negotiable) INVERTER has LCD screen, shows real time load percentage, inbuilt charger, etc etc. Reason for my own disposal is that, my system is very small, my 600Wp PV installation is also heavily shaded and this inverter will simply be wasting energy for me... Hit signature let's talk. Update SOLD

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 3:53pm On Oct 07, 2020 |
mctfopt: My 219L has similar consumption before the local engineers (kezeems) did their magic on it and turned it to a 200w+ freezer |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 3:57pm On Oct 07, 2020 |
ceaser: It does about 2w and if lid is opened it goes to about 10w until the compressor triggers again so as to keep it at -20. Oh so we are neighbors then Exactly BMV only needs to be connected to the battery terminals, if you need data from it then you can connect it to other tool that will hervest the data for use, such as a logging system(I use solpiplog) and ofcourse you can connect through Bluetooth as well. That said I expect that it can talk directly with victron inverters, though I don't see why a victron inverter user will need a BMV 1 Like 1 Share |

Good day guys I’m planning on joining 160 and 80 watts panels on my 480 watts battery (40amps) in other to increase my harvest, which connection do you think will Be better between parallel and series Attached are the ratings on the two panels

kadorzy: Confirm capacity needed, Next wkend would create a whatsapp group and or thread on nairaland to keep us abreast of developments, and we choose our coordinators. Looking at 200ah or 300ah, 400ah cells from 1 vendor to keep it simple. 1 Like |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by BetaTechnicians: 6:52pm On Oct 07, 2020 |

BetaTechnicians: You are right. It can drop that low when items are fully frozen. The lil monster can keep things frozen for four days |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ceaser: 7:57pm On Oct 07, 2020 |
mctfopt: How lower does it run? Cos I have a 203L non-inberter compressor thermocool too that start surges at around 600 watts and settles at 105w. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ceaser: 8:12pm On Oct 07, 2020 |
ojeysky: Come, is this some typo? 2 watts and 10 watts ke?! As as how? (In lateef Oladimeji's voice) My 319L inverter compressor (rated 115w) maintains a constant consumption in the nineties once good temperature is achieved. Although I have the "turbo switch" (that red light switch) permanently on which means that the compressor is on 24/7 or so I believe, cos I have never noticed any silence in its working. The same "turbo freeze switch" always on goes for the 203L. Or have I been using these appliances incorrectly? |

New to this thread. Kindly show me some love. What will the cost estimate of a complete solar system. 2kw ....2 battery system.. solar panels etc. On the average |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by painite02: 12:49am On Oct 08, 2020 |
olopan:What will be the cost of 2kw on an average. And can you install in Abuja |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 4:26am On Oct 08, 2020 |
ceaser: As low as 80w. Will check within this weekend to get exact figure |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 5:56am On Oct 08, 2020 |
ceaser: It's no typo Bro, that's what happens when the freezer compressor shuts off. The turbo switch should not be constantly on, its meant to be a fast track and when it gets to your desired temperature you should turn off the turbo if it doesn't go off by itself as that was how it behaved in my 219L(I have not tried the turbo on the 379L) so that may also be why you have a consistent power consumption. That said, it could also be due to the content in the freezer, mine is just about 30% full 1 Like |
