Hello guys,

could you please recommend alternative brands of hybrid inverters that have [b]Grid electricity, Solar and Generator [/b]inputs and is able to switch between the three based on settings?

I know deye inverters have these feature but deye is pricy.

Thank you

Just did another one today ! Working perfectly well

Good business I must say.


16 550 watts Jinko panels
10kw pylontech lithium battery
5kw Growatt hybrid inverter


Hi quick question. The growatt inverter there the manufacturer states maximum PV array input as 6000w but you have 16 550w panels which is total 8800watts isn't that too much for the inverter?

I received my 3 units of Felicity 25KW yesterday, I intend to replace my 4 Units of Felicity 15KW and use them to redeploy my redundant 16KW Deye Inverter.

I noticed some differences between these units I got and the 25KW sold in Alaba and I contacted Felicity Engineers in China straight off.

They have revealed some important points about both models. They also sent the UN38.3 of one of the Pack, waiting for the second one.

I will not post our conversation here in order not to cast their updates in Alaba and drive them to start changing stickers and writeups to circumvent the system and sell to you.

TO ALL FELICITY LITHIUM BATTERY 25KW, 15KW, and 12KW PROS{ECTIVE BUYERS in 2024 AND FUTURE, FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT FOR THIS IMPORTANT GIST BEFORE YOU BUY.

Please What's the current price of these batteries in Nigeria?

Also please share the secrets on the batteries in Alaba. You can give a hint cheesy

Felicity honours warranty....... There is room for refunds if it doesn't meet up with what is being advertised.
You may test it by using the manufacturer recommended charge and discharge parameters via its datasheet. You may also monitor the performance of the individual cells via the bms pc monitor. Batched and matched Grade A cells will remain balance and work together at the upper knees of 57.6v while charging at the recommended C rate and the same thing with the lower knees of 44.4v while discharging at the recommended C rate.
Grade B cells will not work together from the bottom to the top. Runner cell will take a lead on the upper knees and hit full voltage cutoff before reaching the manufacturer recommended max voltage and the same thing will happen at the lower knees while discharging.
SUBMISSION: We should not always rely on misleading stickers pasted on products.
Physical assessment and practical test will
also reveal the hidden truth.


Are there specific felicity models with Gade A cells and those with Gade B cells?

How does one tell the difference?

Chief what's your experience so far with your felicity lithium batteries? Do you recommend? I'm reading alot of complaints

Xanderone:
Also this is all I read in the manual about the Gen mode. So it doesn't seem tk be something remotely connected with energy saving mode to me. It looks like something to do with drop in voltage associated with generator when many loads are placed on it.

So since I don't use Gen, but solar, I haven't even tried working with that "Gen mode" button yet grin As in I haven't pressed that button at all.

I have a tuya energy monitor/switch inline with the AC, so I'm able to monitor its consumption in-app.

Hello. Could you please share a picture of this Tuya energy monitoring switch you have? Also how much is it and where can one get it? Thanks

Usually they would factor in some months from Production to Shipping. This might take out 6 - 8 months shelf life for Flooded Batteries, 5-7 Months for Gel Batteries, 10-14 months for Lithium Batteries. So resellers have average Max of 6 Months or less to sell the battery.
This accounts to why they don't recommend you store them further than necessary.

Thank you all for the feedback.

Is there anyway to know batteries with a seller that have been stored past the recommended intervals? Especially lithium batteries
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by TCD: 12:29pm On May 06
jonescosmos:


Buy them in this order: Inverter>Battery>Panels.

Reason: Inverter has a long shelf life, Batteries has a short shelf life, Keep them too long, they would sulphate or discharge beyond DOD, Panels will be exposed to breakage and other risks when you stock them.

Secondly, you can start using your Inverter & Battery when you grab the batteries and add Panels later.

Third is that the price fluctuations affects Inverters and Batteries more than Panels.

I hope this helps

Hello Chief.
I'm curious. If batteries have short shelf life, how do manufacturers and sellers store them in their stock before sale which may take months?

Done and Dusted !!!

Abuja People !!!

The fear of Band A, Band B and Band etc is the beginning of wisdom.
This Client first said: "just install something that will power my fridge and Lighting points."
And I asked him, "Will you be wanting to upgrade this setup someday?"
He said maybe. I proposed he should simply go OFF-GRID he said give me quotation, I quoted:

12Kw Deye Inverter
24x625W Jinko,
35KW (2 x 17.5KW) Felicity Lithium

as usual and he screamed and said just install something that will power my fridge and Lighting points that he can add things later and will be supporting the heavy loads and recharge the battery with Nepa for now (I explained and tried to discourage him from doing this till I got tired). We adjusted this quotation so tey we landed on:

8KW Deye
17.5KW Felicity Lithium
3.5KWp Jinko Panels (8x440w)

And we deployed.
He was happy, but then the battery will never fill up before sun down, he recharged his Meter as usual 50K (Band A) twice and the credit lasted less than 3 days, He called me back and said:
"E be like say that thing wey you been dey try explain to me na true ooo, to charge this battery with Nepa go tear my wallet"

He said Ok let's power the whole house and see
So I did something for him, I powered the whole house, Put some ACs the heavy loads on SmartLoad, we switched off the water heater and job done.
He tested for 3 days and as soon as the client noticed that the inverter could take all his loads, He called me back and said that we have to upgrade this setup ASAP to power everything house 247. But remember that we had opted for an 8KW instead of 12KW inverter, 440w Panels instead of 625w Panels, 1 unit of 17.5kw Instead of 2 Units. He asked if we can sell the Inverter and Panels to upgrade to the initial quote. I told him that he might not realize the money 100% and he screamed "something wey I never use up to one week?
I asked if I should post it online and see, he said no let him contact his friends that knows about Inverters and Solar. He did and in my presence his friends where pricing less than half of what he invested. I asked him again "Make I post am online?" He said "NO NEED, If people wey know me dey price am like this, wetin people wey no know me go come price am" that I should find a way to make this thing work out.

And so I did:

8KW Deye
35KW (2 x 17.5KW) Felicity Lithium
12KWp Jinko Panels (8x625W + 16x440w)
After powering up around 1PM yesterday, the Batteries filled up before 4PM from 40% to 100%. grin
Thanks to Deye SmartLoad Function

Load:
8 x 1.5hp LG Dual Inverters Permanently Put on Inverter Mode (5 Units on SmartLoad)
1 x 620Ltr 4 Door Samsung Fridge
1 x 420Ltr Hisense Freezer (SmartLoad)
6 x 60Inch LED TVs
1 x 100Ltr Water Heater (SmartLoad)
1 x Double Burner Electric Cooker Unit (SmartLoad)
1 x 3ft Double Fan Cooker Heat Extractor (SmartLoad)
1 x Microwave Oven (SmartLoad)
1 x 0.75hp Pressure Pumping Machine
1 x Water Dispenser
>Plenty Lighting Points (No vex I lost counts)
>Other plenty Gadgets.

Clients can be difficult, But do your best as the Engineer to convince them with evidence.

Hello.

I am hoping Seun would create a separate section for this.


I will be putting up vehicles that are already converted to dual fuel CNG (New or used) in this section .

So if you are on the lookout for that bus, car , SUV, mini van etc and you want a vehicle that has been properly converted and certified or a factory fitted CNG vehicle, you will find them here .

Again CNG vehicles are economical to use, and run on an average of ₦10-15 per kilometre E.g on every 100km you spend ₦1000-₦1,500

You can also schedule a test drive and request a certain type of CNG vehicle you are searching for, we will purchase convert and deliver .

Hey guys. Could someone please help with suggestions for my situation below?

I’m planning to apply for a visa about six months from now. I’m trying to build my account and want to make it as clean as possible. The only credit to my account is my salary. I earn relatively well, and have very few expenses. I have about 800k disposable income that’s left every month from my salary.

The issue is, the Naira keeps losing value. I want to be converting my disposable income to dollars and keeping it in my dom account instead of saving in Naira. I have a BDC person that I can send the Naira to, and he will credit my dom account with the dollar equivalent. But I’m worried about how to explain this to an ECO when it’s time to apply for the visa. Basically, there will be a huge debit to my salary account (to the BDC) and then a huge credit to my dom account (from BDC).

I’m scared that an ECO will not understand this and might deny my visa for unexplainable transactions that are different from my stated salary and expenditure.

Any suggestions? Should I try to get the BDC to issue me receipts for every Naira debit and dollar credit? Will that be sufficient?

The alternative is to leave all my disposable income in the salary account, but who knows how much value the money would have lost six months from now?

Get tge BDC guy to print you a receipt for each transaction.

Keep the receipts and attach to your application.

But wait are you saying I should not apply for it at all or I should apply ?

Its like you want to throw away 80 pounds. They never mentioned anything about your documents. Your refusal was based on the answers you gave at the interview, which in all honesty your answers were lacking in intellectual capacity expected of a graduate . You were probably nervous during the interview and what was coming out of your mouth and what was in your head were two different things.

You sef read what you responded to those questions. Did they make any sense to you?

nawaoo, did u even read or understand what was written on the chats at all? that a seller in Nigeria is trying to justify why he imports cheap cells without qr codes., he is trying to justify why he goes for cheaper disassembled cells and u are here applauding him for opening your eyes cheesy
there is grade A cells bro, don't fall for his write up. until he starts importing EVE, LISHEN, REPT, CATL cells like 280ah/230ah/160ah/105ah cells that comes with proper verifiable QR codes, not cheap disassembled catl, Calb and other unknown brands he is known for.
real grade A cells doesn't come cheap. and not a fast sell, reason most, if not all lithuim company in naija use grade b cells or better still overstate capacity in order to sell off fast. nothing goes for nothing. what pay for, is what u will surely get. u can't pay 1.3m and expect to get Grade A cells real capacity 48v 10kwh lithium bank.

Family / Re: Replying To Finally I'm Kicking My Husband Out Of My House. I'm Sorry by TCD: 4:43pm On Nov 12, 2022
Iapologize:
I'm sorry

firstly I'm sorry for making you feel worthless, I never meant to body shame you. half the time I was high and the other half i was just joking, I don't blame you for feeling the way you do, I rarely compliment how beautiful you are. I'm sorry

secondly I'm sorry for never being there for the kids, each time I see them, I was already half drunk, I didn't want them to grow up seeing me as nothing but a drunk so I pushed them away. I'm sorry

thirdly I'm sorry for not supporting your dreams, I didn't want you to go to the university because I didn't want to take care of the children while you were away, I wasn't ready to step up and be a father and you were against hiring a nanny because you fear that the children might be abused (sexually, emotionally or physically), that's why I ask for more kids, I see how you take care of the children with so much love and understanding. honestly I was scared. I didn't want my lavish lifestyle to end, I wanted to be at the club instead of staying home with the children, even the part time you were talking about still sounded stressful to me at that time. I'm sorry.

lastly I'm sorry for all I have put you through. for all the late nights, all the cheating. since we grew up poor, we didn't get to live a lavish life. I wanted the finest things in life and I allowed it to get to my head. I didn't mean to impregnate that girl, yes I did sleep with her raw but I gave her money to buy afterpills.

She was trying to blackmail me using the pregnancy, she wanted to keep the baby. I didn't know what to do, I was scared. I begged her to abort it but she was demanding to much. she thought I was rich, I explained to her that you are the one with the money not me, that's when she threatened to tell you about the pregnancy if i don't pay her off, the money she demanded was too much,I don't have that type of money but I know you do. I had to tell you. I'm sorry

I promise, I will change, please forgive me. my good people of nairaland please help me beg her. we got married when we were early twenties and late teens. please I don't want to lose her.

I will spend time with the kids, I will do a full STD test, I will anything you want just please forgive me.

Sorry does not really fix things. Break a glass cup and tell it sorry. See if it will come back to normal. It will never be the same. You pushed a good woman to the limit. You are probably only sorry because she has woken up.

I believe you haven't had a first hand experience with them.

Tax is calculated based on parallel and you have limited time frame to make payments, else it will be booked and when you come to the office for it, it might have gotten missing or far away down warehouse where you will have to pay extra to search for it.

And you will end up paying in $ cash...(if you come jam craze official you will endup paying more, cos some of your $bills will be taggd as fake and stamped; it will be swapped obviously and not returned to you, if you want to drag further you will end up in $laundry unit, from there asap.)
Best bet just avoid the avoidables.

Are you serious? All this happens in airport? In broad day light? Na wa o.
