Do not use dry cell battery. They do not last. Once it clocks 1 year, it will begin to drain extremely fast. Use wet cell battery or lithium battery (if you can afford lithium battery). Wet cell needs regular topping of distilled water tho. That 160k would have gotten you 220ah wet cell battery. 4 Likes 1 Share |

And someone did for me same December here in Lagos at 2,050,000. (Two Million, fifty thousand naira only) though he use hybrid battery for me and 12 panels of 450watts each. The same coy also did 7kva for my oga at 6.5m with 2 big lithium battery. |

In solar installation and usage, make sure you take care of some basic things like HVD - High voltage disconnexrt, that is when your battery is full and will be disconnect. LVR - low voltage disconnexrt, this is when your battery get disconnect for reaching like 30% to avoid damage. Also, make sure you clean your panels regularly for uptimum performance. Don't overload your installation. Make sure you don't put ON bulbs not in usage like toilet, perimeter during day time and power ON what you needed most. Above all, before going for solar installation ensure you do load analysis. Thank you 24 Likes 5 Shares |

How is it possible to use 2 200amps batteries for a 5kva inverter, which should at least be 48 Volts? Was thinking that would require 4 batteries. please, educate me. 1 Like |

Compliant: Dry cell lasts about a year, not 2 years. After 1 year, it will start draining very fast. What used to last for 10 hours will start lasting for 2 hours. The only advantage is that it doesn't need maintenance. You should have bought wet cell battery for the same price. That one needs regular topping of distilled water 2 Likes 1 Share |

tonididdy:Lmaooo. Dude, quit trying to preach to the choir. If your panels generate 2,400 watts and your batteries are full at high noon, you can use your devices as long as they do not cumulatively get close to 2,000 watts since the power is not drawn from the batteries unless there is a sudden cloud cover. My system that has never I mean never gone below 40% is what you are lecturing me how to use. Funny And as for distilled water, na you go teach me na 11 Likes 2 Shares |

It's the best. I have got one installed in my place and since I work from home, I make use of it from 9 am to 4 pm. Once it's 4 pm, I switch it off and on it around 7 pm, watch movies from 7 to 10, off the tv, and make use of the Dc fan till the morning. It's the way to go.

ModCaller:Where do you people get your alternate facts from. As long as you do not abuse your batteries and try to make sure you do not discharge them up to zero, they will last. The one I used before, I sold to a friend and he is still using them. This is the third year they have been in use 13 Likes 1 Share |

tonididdy: The BATTERY SELLER / SOLAR INSTALLER should be blamed. Why get a FLOODed battery for a customer without first understanding if they have the requisite knowledge on how to care for it. This is how they end up killing people's mindSet on things like this. If care isn't taken, there would come a time people would STONE you when you try INTRODUCing anything SOLAR to them.

Re: Solar Inverters: Cost Implication, Durability And Issues by main24(m): 1:35pm On Feb 13, 2023 |
iyke2frankeze: lol, dry cell is still the best. Lithium batteries is more profitable to both marketers and engineers, that is why they will always recommend it. Battery Longevity depends on usage and what you use in charging it. |

You made a good investment, I'm an installer based in Lagos. I don't know the point you're trying to make but I can say your storage is not bad for your loads and if you intend more hours of usage add 2 more Panels of 280w capacity to the existing 4pcs. As this will enhance fast charging of your batteries even while in use with the daily a available sun hours. utepu: |

omakay: for all my FANs, I just buy (tokunbo) RECHARGEABLE FANs, switch out their batteries, and use them like it's AC, but now on DC. It's WASTEful to stepUp/inVert 12 or 24 or 48 Volts up to 240Volts, only to inVERT/stepDown it downwards to <= 30Volts . I recall saying somewhere on Nairaland i could run my laptop for over 3-days without running out of battery and some people doubted me. 9 Likes |
