ceejay80s:
Finished testing the battery and its ok, I bought a 10watts fan from the battery seller yesterday and used it to test on how long the 42ah battery will power it and I wasn't disappointed ,after I have fully charged the battery, I disconnected all other batteries from my ups and connected the recently bought 12v 42ah battery to the ups and powered the 10watts fan from 6pm yesterday the fan was still on till 6am this morning , sincerely, the fan was awesome, e just dey blow cold breeze for my body as light no dey till dis morning, I am now fully satisfied with both battery and fan, I will connect the 42ah battery with my other 76ah battery in parallel connection

Mr. Ceejay80s.
Please tell me where I can get this 10 watts clip fan.

wow. I came across this thread two days ago and to say I'm stunned is to say the least.

I'm a teenager and I'm happy to see that other people share the same passion as me.

I'm going to detail my journey into renewable energy here and hopefully I'm going to be blessed, how? my next post will reveal.

bosses in the house I greet you all.
watch out for my next post!

offer your advice and assistance

we don't have power supply from NEPA ..
only our little 'I pass my neighbor' generator which we seldom fuel.
I knew I had to do something. I had to look somewhere else for power supply. my research introduced me into the world of solar energy. when I browsed about the cost for setting it up, I was dismayed, there's no way my parents can afford it.
but I didn't give up!
I googled on how to build an inverter. I got plenty tutorials, schematics and circuit diagram. I didn't know know anything about electrical components. I'm a teenager who just wrote his waec with hope of getting into medical school, that's what my family want!

well, I continued researching, studied more on electrical components and also using the little money I have to buy components and salvaging others from electronics at my disposal.

I bought a soldering iron, fueled our generator and started work. it was my first time of using a soldering iron..
less I forget I also bought a second hand car battery for 4k.. I used it for testing the inverter and I've been using it ever since.

the first inverter that I built didn't work. I got another circuit diagram from the internet, built it.. it still didn't work.

then one of my teachers introduced me to his friend who's an engineer and together we built the inverter pictured below..

the inverter works perfectly fine.
it can carry any load from a big TV to a light Bob..
in the test below I'm using a DVD with that same car battery I bought over a year ago..

Now, inverter is working, I have a car battery, but how do I charge the battery since we don't have NEPA light?

I knew the only option is to buy a solar panel.. but I couldn't afford it. so I packed up everything I've built and dumped them somewhere and I started saving money to buy a solar panel..

fast forward to early this year I was able to get a second hand solar panel of 20watts from a man who sells electronics.
I bought the panel for 8k.

with my estimation it'll take about 2 weeks for the solar panel to fully charge the battery which I also know is not the ideal battery to use..

by and large, I'm still in the race of solar energy with no little success due to financial constraints..


in any way you can support me I'll appreciate, be it advice, giving me your old batteries or solar panels(for those of you who want to upgrade your system) or better still don't give me fish but teach me how to fish... teach me how I can make money..

you try, we are almost in the same shoe.
try to work with people in lagos, you get fairly used stuff at cheaper price.

luminous is good, u dont have light at all in yr area,
u can get a 250w and above mono mono solar panel and a good quality 30amp charge controller, 1.5kva ups or inverter, check the watts of yr fan and tv

please great minds help me out, I have a Dell 2407WFPb 24" Monitor with rating: 100-240v~, 50-60Hz, 2A power consumption

how do I know the exact watts consumption?

use nairaland PM. I'll reply

some people still don't believe that some ups are inverters, start small like me and grow big to enjoy 24hrs like...
everything no be agidi.
ask some nairanlanders,
NEPA show me shege before I ventured in to this, dem even carry my transformer go for a month,
start with small size batteries and upgrade when ever u have extra cash

If you're using it in Nigeria, let's assume the fixed voltage would be 220v. The power rating would be (voltage *amps). In your case, this would give you 220V*2A= 440 watts.

Oga ceejay, my own 10w fan is still working well o, bought 2 sef and dey still doing a great job so far oo, buh how do u mean by this new one is 100times better, in terms of watts or durability or speed, cus all I can see that this new one does ova the former is dat it rotates and has a covering for the blades...besides can u pls shed more light on its wattage consumption.. I no too understand d 12v something.. Thanks

consumption: 14w

220v × 2A = 440 × 0.8(efficiency)= 352watts

Yes you are on point .. We all started from somwer abinitio! Its a gradual process and seeing other people investment & total cost mustn't act as a discouraging factor ... Cheers !

Oga Ceejay, I greet and commend you for this tread. I agree with ur advice to start small. Abeg I am interested in getting that Lifepo 40ah and a 80watts or 100watts or 150watts solar panel. Can can u help me with current prices for neatly used ones? Thanks and God bless u!

Its always good to seek professional guidelines when going solar .. DIY is good but has its limitations especially for those who ain't technically inclined ! I actually started from a 20a pwm solar controller to a 40a mppt epsolar and advanced to 60a itracer mppt which takes cares of all basic loads in my house 24h/7days weekly .. Below is a short video clip on how my solar set-up trickle charges on a rainy day : solar is indeed unique & efficient
