@ reprobate
Thanks for your response. I read but never got info on wires on time. I had the wires at home and since I saw it used somewhere I just went for it. I have since realised I must change wire but because I am on budget and have planned on the battery for almost a year, I just went for it. I charge it with gen and the old one with solar for now while I save towards the cable. saw the wires being used somewhere and thought it will also work for me. I have not started charging the new battery with solar, only the old 100ah I used before. I intend buying16mm because of future expansion and will surely visit Alaba or source online. I need almost 100 feet and that is over 100K. Can you recommend a trustworthy person at Alaba I can contact for it. There are too many scammers out there. Thanks

PS: Would you be willing to do a review of the setup for me? If yes please contact on abiodunola@ymail.com so we can exchange numbers and share via whatsApp. Thanks

100FT, that is far, are u sure you cant change your positioning to shorten the distance, I hvnt ever seen a dual core 16mm, single core is about 800naira per meter , so you are looking at spending about 60k for 2 lengths of 100ft,
am not in lagos, so cant review your setup for you.

even using 4.5amps to charge a 100ah battery is not good, long term.
I recall kiekie advertising 16mm dual core, you may consider reaching out to him, he can also help qaqc your system, ie if he is not driving, or too busy grin

thanks
Can you determine the volt of the inverter with that?

NOPE, its usually written on the body of the inverter, 48v is the common dc input voltage for any inverter of that rating, though 96v and 120v models still exist

I use luminous 900vac inverter with 100ah battery. I recently bought a 200ah mercury battery. To my surprise unless I switch off all lights, TV etc the battery will not charge. Why is this?

Also, the inverter fan is no longer working. Why?
My panels(3×150watts parrallel connection) are fluctuating between 0.1 and 4.5 as reported by the controller. I understand that's due to cable length and size but I can't afford 6mm or 10mm cable now. If I place the new 200ah battery on it (solar) , will it have any adverse effect? I am using it to charge the old 100ah battery but it lasts only about 1 hour now. Please advise. Thanks

your inverter likely has a problem.
its strange you have money to buy 200ah batt, and you cant afford 6mm or 10mm cable, with the 4.5a you are getting, using it to charge the 200ah battery, will kill the battery under 6months, because of sulphation.
nothing wrong with running solar on a budget, but if you must do so, you need to back up ur lack of funds with adequate knowledge, if not, you stand to loose everything.
would advice you to get a pro here, who may be willing to reviw your system with you and possibly visit your location, to enable you harness the max from your setup

This guys story baffles me, for you to get infected only once you had unprotected sex, because I have seen men that had sex with positive ladies many times without contacting it. Even a Dr confirmed it that it's very difficult for a guy to easily contact it, unless you have some wounds around your private part.

yeah, sheer bad luck I guess,
or he has a cut/wound on his dvck, 2ndly he was in raw for about 3mins...n then later wore condom...wearing condom might has trapped the virus inside his urethra

I broke down and joined the LG AC Revolution. I run it from 1030 am to 430 pm daily and for 1 hour at night. I am not so sure that it is that much more efficient than a regular AC. There are many options on how I can run it relative to the window unit I have in my office.
My Nissan leaf batteries are kicking ass.

wow, this interface is pretty cool,

[quote author=DeConsultant post=77838166]

Firstly, i will like to categorically say this, a business name is under class B in CAMA (Companies Allied Matters Act), the thing about classes of companies is that an entity in a class is unique and only changeable or converted within it class. A business name can be converted from a sole proprietorship to partnership and vice versa. The same rule applies to Limited Companies, which is under class A, it can only move within its class

What this means is that you cannot degrade or convert from a Limited Company to a business name or vice versa. There are two options

1. De-register or wind up the company (limited company) and re-register as a business name with the same company name.

2. Just ignore the already existing company and register a new business name with a new name.


thanks for the prompt response, I already have a TIN nos, and FIRS would be aware of my existence, though we hvnt made any tax payments so I think ignoring may attract taxes and all sorts, and with bvn, firs may go to our other accounts to collect backlog of taxes if they are so inclined..
the deregistering you mentioned, you have an idea of the procedure

If It the item listed above and you are using 1pc of 200Ah 12V battery. 250W is required if using mppt which is not need for this budget friendly option.
Get 150W 3pcs(parallel them, use 12V controller 30Amps) use quality gauged flex cable depending on the distance from. Panel to battery) . We sell too most of the components but your discretion.

thanks, though I am looking at mppt cos of possible future expansion. 2ndly my solar mentor says he gets about 1200w avg from his 1500w panel, so extrapolating, I feel I shud be getting about 350w or 400w avg from the 2 x 250w panel = about 30amps at 12v, using mppt, so with 5hrs of sunlight, am fairly certain of the battery going into float daily

solar gurus...abeg helep me b4 ny money loss
i wsn to do a small setup..for 5 12w bulbs and maybe 1 60w fan on some nights.
my budget is lean. so 1kva inverter .1 x 12v 200ah battery and 2 x 250w 36v panels. i intend to hook it up to a 30a or 40a mppt charge controller..my question is theoritically the panels shud generate 15amps at 24v...thus simce am connecting it to an mppt cc for a 12v system...i would be getting abt 30amps at 12v.

pls confirm this my analysis or plan is correct
