I have an issue with my mercury 3kva inverter.I usually have nepa light for 12hrs, even though the batteries are fully charged and the indicator show that.the fan of the inverter keeps on humming.is this normal or it was wrongly installed.
Also for my fellow mercury battery users which is better the mercury elite tubular or the mercury deep cell.

The fan is for cooling the inverter electronics. The electronics include the inverter circuit and the charging circuit. When mains power is ON, the unit is charging the battery and the fan would simply be cooling the built in charger.

Kiekie, you are so wonderful. I am really enjoying my inverter. At a short notice you were able to supply the inverter same day . That amazes me.

I am planningto get the tubular battery you advertised but can I combine it with sealed ones that I have at the moment? Does that mean I will discard them?

What matters is your battery, is it having enough capacity to run your stated load at your estimated time ? 300watt sp will always work even less than that d problem is that it will probably take days to replenish the battery energy back with those appliances......

"Boosting" is what is displays for both BULK and ABSORB phases of charging.

Hello guys, thank God I stumbled on this tread today... pla I need advice and and suggestions. ... I have a 1.4kva inverter and 2 200A/12v batteries. the thing is even after being fully charged, it doesnt take more than 2hrs for it to start shouting (lol). actually I've had this for like a year+, so I know its time to change the batteries. but then I thought of adding a solar panel to the system. I got a quotation of 320,000naira from someone bt I think its on the high side. pls guys hw much do u think I need to replace d batteries and add a solar unit to it.

whats the total load on the system in watts?.........its either the batts werent good/new to begin with or ur load was too much, thus the batt was running down everyday.

320k might b a fair deal for a complete solar assembly, with charge controller and other accesories..if the opanel wattage is at least 1kw..monopanels n 45amp mpppt charge controller....................
begin first by stating ur avg load in watts....and how many hours u hv the loads on

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by kiekie1(m): 7:15pm On Apr 08, 2016
When choosing the most appropriate solar PV panel for your project, consumers are faced with many choices on the quality and cost spectrum. In many markets, not just solar, consumers seek the best-possible combination of high-quality at a competitive price… but in doing so, they might overlook their technology options. In solar, it’s important to consider the performance advantages between monocrystalline and polycrystalline solar panels.

Simply defined, the material difference between polycrystalline and monocrystalline rests in the composition of the silicon substrate used to make solar cells, and in turn solar panels. As the name implies, monocrystalline means “a single crystal,” while polycrystalline means “many crystals.” Large crystal sizes lead to more efficient solar cells, which is why monocrystalline cells are typically 10% to 15% more efficient than their polycrystalline counterparts.

But there’s a catch: because of the silicon casting and wafering process, it costs about 20% more to create solar cells with monocrystalline structures. You could think of monocrystalline like single origin coffee, cultivated from one particular bean varietal, which requires more care and preparation than a blended product. Polycrystalline and multicrystalline silicon panels comprise the vast majority of PV panels sold in the global market.

So, which is better? In fact, the “debate” over whether to choose mutlicrystalline or monocryatlline solar panels is not really a debate at all, but rather a question of the specific goals for a solar project. The answer depends on the location and design parameters of your project, and other factors including local labour costs and utility rate structures.

Generally speaking, polycrystalline panels are ideal for installations with near-unlimited roof or ground space, and regions with lower “soft costs,” including project installation and permitting. They also make sense for owners looking to minimize upfront installation costs. On the other hand, monocrystalline panels are ideal for smaller roof tops or space-constrained properties, as monocrystalline technology produces higher efficiency cells so you get more power onto the same surface area. Monocrystalline panels also feature a lower temperature coefficient, which means that as the panels get hotter they will typically outperform their polycrystalline counterparts.

There are key differences to consider when weighing the benefits of polycrystalline and monocrystalline panels, but the key point to remember is that there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Solar buyers should be informed of all the technological options and make a choice best suited to a project’s specific energy needs.

That’s why we provide our customers with the option to choose either monocrystalline or multicrystalline panels. As a global leader in solar PV manufacturing and the world’s first fully vertically integrated module manufacturer, Yachi , Joy & Perlight takes pride in providing the highest-value products, and in being able to demonstrate the comparative benefits behind our various solar panel options. In addition, our solar panels are backed by third-party warranties, providing you an additional layer of assurance that your solar investment will be secure for years to come.

Easter is a promise God renews to us in each spring. May the promise of Easter fill your heart with peace and joy! Happy Easter to my numerous customers !

Basically, online transactions involves lots of courage & trust .. Marketing varies as you try to please so many and yet can't please all cos of individual differences "sanguine, melancholic,phlegmatic,laggards" ! Recently I received a call from one of my numerous online client complaining of a brand new timer switch he purchased few months ago, I sincerely replied him that I ordered a few of that and warranty issues ain't that simple with all those products cos I have had similar issues with an EP SOLAR mppt controller with my nairaland client"Saipro" here who can bear me witness but was finally resolved amicably & we are still best of friends .. I explained to him repeatedly that i ordered few quantity online from China and I really dnt know what he wants me to do.. He sprung up that he will come POST RIDICULOUS words on nairaland for a timer switch(4k few months ago) he got from me brand new after he insisted he wants to personally come pick up at my Ikeja outlet address which I referred him to few months ago .. I really want to make a point here , there is no point coming online to tarnish ones image for nothing . A reliable online salesman goes about his daily transactions without meeting so many of his clients incase some people dnt know .we have so many silent reader and viewers online incase most nairalander dnt know and i must tell you categorically that I have transacted with most of them . Few might insist for guarantors or referee because of dubious past business experiences which I always give out because I am always on the move for deliveries , most clients knows me for that here.. If you insist you want to pick up in one of my Lagos outlets ,, I always refer them to my Ikeja addresses freely which might be my brothers/uncle shop pending on convenience ... Please let's all encourage one another & may God almighty bless us all as we do so , Amen !


Frankie, I can relate with the guy's frustration......I remembered about 2 years ago when I paid you online for 2kw power starlight inverter which you sent over to me in Akure. when I set it up and realized it was not charging the battery at all, i called and you ask me to return it for another and you gave me your uncle/bro's Ikeja shop address. I got there and ask after you but their response even left me more confused.....cos you go by another name there and hasn't left any info of anybody coming around or something like that......I journeyed from Akure and had to put the inverter on my laps on the bus and had to carry it on my head while asking around for your bro shop address. The most annoying part was you were always sounding bossy all the time while I tried to converse with you on the phone and after waiting for you for a while, you asked me to drop the inverter at the shop and also with the instruction that I should drop 5k which you claimed is for your transport to the warehouse or I shouldn't bother to drop it at all and all this happened just three days of purchase .....with guarantee fully in place like you promised......my choice were limited so I parted with the money with so much discomfort to the rest of my finance for the rest of the month. You might have forgotten but that experience still leave a bitter feeling each time I replayed it. I feel cheated, disrespected and arm twisted till date.

I'll prefer to rate the Inverter and not the company.

on a scale of 0 to 10 I'll rate them 6.

My ratings is based on performance according to specifications, price, durability. It's a little pricy compared to their other China ones.

I installed 2 of them about 3 years ago with the same battery. One of them have gone for repairs repeatedly and at the end they eventually changed it but the other one hasn't had any issue since installation.

hello bro......pls I have a 2000watt of the same brand though it does not come with a lcd screen.....i have had it for over 2 years now. presently it does not charge the battery until I press the power button to put on the unit and will continue charging even if I put it off immediately by put the power knob in the middle. The challenge is if i'm away from home and I put it off to save stored charge and power happened to be restored.....it won't charge. Pls how can I fix this problem?

Thanks for sharing, we need stories like this to bring balance and force people to give due diligence to warranty cases. Yes I do understand how difficult it is for the supplier many of whom don't get covered by the OEM yet it is part of the risk of doing business. You can't sell a product with warranty and treat the customer like shit when he tries to claim. This is one area Nigeria businesses needs to improve on.
