Valto , mukhcech and every other member using solar should pls advise me, the more I wait,the more the price keeps increasing, I just saw an original 250w poly solar panel for 55k , he said his price might go up very soon, is the price ok and its poly worth it? Can poly serve me well especially when the sun ray is low?

New update: up nepa!!!!! I give up

Thats a good price for a 250watts solar panel. Oga Ceejay go for it. It is worth every penny. Just get a good charge controller and freedom is urs.

Me I no dey send NEPA again.

Thanks for the respond. pls have you made used of UPS as an inverter before? what are the advantages over the other. ?

How much is the 1000watts

How much is the 1000watts

UPS is cheaper than inverter. But it has its own limitations .

The inbuilt charger is small since it's meant to charge small capacity batteries eg 12V 7AH. So to use it you'll require an external charger.

Most inverters come with inbuilt charger capable charging big size batteries eg 12V 200AH.

Most UPS are of low capacity eg 650VA, 800VA and 1KVA ( big capacity UPS exist, but for the purpose of this thread the UPS I meant are those that power at most 2 computers in the office)

So the choice of which to go for is seriously dependent on your pocket and what you intend to power.

I hope this is helpful.

Other bigger ogas are welcome to contribute

Do you mean 2v or 12v?

If its 2v,then 4 is not useful except 6

Ceejay, how far? Long tym. Will soon join you on this solar panel set-up. It's my next plan. I'm only constrained by limited funds for now. My inverter set-up is still doing very fine. I will, however, require just about only a 150w solar panel and a 20A CC

congrats bro, u are surely getting there. e no easy.. with this, its easier to upgrade. any time u which, just a add a 150watts solar panel to it and u are done, since u have a total 260amp deep cycle batteries. when i was using just 400w panel on my 400amps batteries, it wasnt charging optimally as i wish, not until i added another 150w panel. now i dont really bother if there is light, cos my batteries are well charged

i used a 2.5mm wire. though i know it might not be very efficient. but i will upgrade to a more thicker wire, when i buy 1 more 150w panel. nepa now bring light for just 10mins per day since December 1st. angry

I am using 6mm wire with mine,my pocket just dry straight,500naira per yard, I heard that it loses current with lesser mm wire, google online about what people say about using lesser wires, it heats up and can cause fire, fear just enter my body, where I go see money build house for landlord ?

i doubt mine catches fire, however i know it loses small current. I will change the wires next month and see if i can get another 150w panels
