inception101: Thought it was said that batteries shouldn't be kept on bare ground? And sorry I mistook your 200w for 1,200w... |

murmee: Another thing to consider is if the inverter is a pure sine wave inverter with features like overload disconnection, circuit breaker protection, etc. I once spoke with a local manufacturer of inverter and all he could offer was a square wave (not even modified sine wave) inverter and for some exorbitant amount. I had to go for the Indian inverter which appears to be far batter and far cheaper.. |

akbahbah: From the info I got from LanJonath on here, MPower seems to be great and he told me that his firm gives guarantee of one year for the battery so much so that, if the battery develops fault within this period, it will be replaced for you with a new one. To me, I think it'll be great investing in such. |
Re: Thread For Solar System/Electricity Owners in Nigeria. by SycophanticGoat: 1:01pm On Jun 06, 2016 |
akbahbah: I can't. It's the more reason I'm searching for the good brands since I want to help my uncle procure his solar power equipment. If they (both batteries) had served me well within the six month of usage, I'd not have even opened this thread in the first place because I would have had it in mind to buy it for my uncle. The inverter I'm using seems to be great tho. |

I use the mtn solar panel. Comes with 2 bulbs and a fan for 30k.plus I can charge my phone, tab and mini laptop. And I recharge 3 K monthly. That's just OK for me for now cos I live in a small apartment. |
Re: Thread For Solar System/Electricity Owners in Nigeria. by SycophanticGoat: 7:18pm On Jun 06, 2016 |
mercifull: Kindly post pictures of the MTN solar panel, batteries and inverter and do you have to recharit it monthly for it to work? |

Great thread and sincerity by the OP INVERTERThere is a need to clarify the two main types of inverters in the market today. 1. The high frequency inverters pure or modified sine wave, inexpensive and relatively light in weight. If all you want is lighting, TV, decoder, fans and the likes, then go for this. 2. The low frequency inverters, pure or modified sinewave, more expensive, bulky with more weight. If you are considering more inductive load like refrigerators, electric motor or compressor based application, in addition to the load listed above then you are good with thus. Most inverters in the market today incorpoates a battery charging element which enable you to recharge your depleted battery once there is mains power. On suitable brand, the indian brand I agree are more preffered though more expensive plus the fact that the input voltage range IMO are most ti es unnecessarily outrageous! For instance 12V is limited to less than 1KVA, 24V limited to 2.4KVA, anything rating higher than this goes for 48V, 96, and even 120V whereas you will still get an American Spec (e.g Outback) of 5KVA rating with 24V input. There are locally built inverter and Chinese inverters less than 2KVA that can easily be purchased within a tight budget and yet perform well. The only edge Luminous, Sukam & co have (IMO) is the availability of after sales repairs and services offered 2 Likes 1 Share |
