Truth being said.
If d above yellow Alimate is your battery be rest assured it might b far less dan 100A. Lets assume it is a 100amp battery. Parallel connection give 200amp which in essence it is actually 100amp at 50% DOD. Now lets say it is not fully 100A each.Hmmmm....guess my mind bro. Lastly, b rest assure that your load is not even up to the rated Watt. Only energy meter can give ur true wattage. My tv e.g is 50w but meter reads 34w. The 50w is maximum wen all settings are at maximum e.g contrast, brightness, volume etc. Your bulbs to might be higher than that. Now , add d idle consumption of 30w to the untrue 100A ba3.

My Souer 1000w inverter (msw) takes just 1.1w while my 1600w psw uses 1w idle consumption.
good day, what brand is your pure sine wave inverter

And think of selling off a kidney first.

Na frustrations from Nigerian customs and devilish import duty will make one tire.



Good way to go about it.

Our Country is run by very wicked Devils!
Imagine buying a product from China and it spends TWO weeks to get to Nigeria and it got stuck with Customs Clearing for FOUR Weeks (Is the distance inside Customs Warehouse double that of Nigeria to China or what?), only to come out and they want not just Custom fees that is twice the cost of the product, the Staff at Post Office also want to be bribed to release the Parcel?

Yet Govt officials keep shouting and crying about how most of Nigeria-destined goods are diverted to neighbouring countries for Clearing!
I just 'love' this country.

Good Morning House.

Does anyone have an idea of how l can 'wake up' a LifePo4 Battery bank (DIY), without the use of a Light Board

or alternatively, where l can get a light board, without having to order it all the way from China?

Thanks in advance

Abeg Ojes, LFP price don come down? Because I used to know 12v/100ah to be around 140k to 150k o.


It's like you forgot to calculate the price of BMS and enclosure with it.



This is seriously annoying. This is even worse than being sold a lemon. Why not let a client know the options available and then let them make an informed choice? Sadly we can't purchase panels directly ourselves from overseas or even buy solar cells and DIY like it can be done with Lithium batteries. It would have cut down chances of falling into the hands of these fraudsters.

Inverters, Lithium cells, controllers, switches, meters can all be personally ordered from reputable manufacturers and bypass fraudulent middle marketers. But solar panels, no hope yet.

I guess we still have to hope reputable dealers maintain their reputation and sincerity.

I reached the Jos guy some months back and he was willing to do 90 or 100ah for me at that price but ofcourse it may not be same price with the current realities of fx

Do you have access to the BMS, please send Model..

You can wake up with Resistor or Charge source too..

The down side of lithium battery or any other batteries is discharging it below safe value. Lithium battery should not be discharged below 2.5v and 2.84-3v for LiFeO4 and lithium ion batteries respectively. In making a diy battery, measure must be in place to check the undervoltage. Your battery may be dead, check each individual cell voltage if they are not below 1.5v they is chance of waking up. Charge individual cell with 4volt while observing the progress.
Secondly what do you mean by light board? Is it the BMS board?

Only daly uses lightboard. The device with battery icon is the lightboard.
Confirm your bms is daly.
Do you have the bluetooth dongle?.
You should have that at least. Check if it has a dot at the end of the word bluetooth. That black or shiny dot is a button and can help you wake the bms up.

If you dont have that..disconnect the load from the bms..and touch the P- and B- cable...it should turn on the bms, if the cell voltage is above bms cutoff.

I never get a full charge. Is my charge controller fake?
Bro, there is nothing wrong with your charge controller. The issue is poor system design. 700w 24v panel is too small for 12v 200Ah battery. I have a similar setup here. Bro your charge controller is good. With your set-up, your charge controller should supply max current of 13A to your battery, which means that it will take your fully discharged 12v 200Ah about 10hrs(two days) to get your battery fully charged, provided you're not using it while charging. Contact on geesunge@gmail.com for an absolutely free solar system design and recommendations. Peace!

Disconnect the output to load...restart inverter, if issue continues..then inverter internal problem.
Disconnect the battery positive for 5 mins..reconnect..if issue persists...take inverter for repairs..or buy another inverter.

Good to always have spares, as these appliances could fail at any time

QUESTION.
If I float my battery today and I wake up the following morning to see 60% left,
charge it again and the battery get to absorption by 3am or refuse to float due to dull weather. I now use it again and wake up the following morning to see 60% left, what effect will this have to the life of the battery?

In this case, the flooded battery hasn't been fully charged for about two to three days but 50% DOD hasn't been exceeded.

The more you restart, more mosfets blow up.

If it's under warranty, don't even bother to open the inverter as it may void the warranty. Just pack it up and send it back to the place you bought it from.

In this case, the flooded battery hasn't been fully charged for about two to three days but 50% DOD hasn't been exceeded.

If you continue in this cycle without getting to float, you will eventually discharge beyond 50% DoD. To prevent story charge with mains especially during bad wheather. Your battery is your major investment take care of it.
Infact this days in Lagos , it's cloudy,then sunny the most annoying is dusty solar panels due to harmattan. Try cleaning � panels.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by isangjohnson: 9:17am On Jan 02, 2022
[quote author=samnaija.

No matter how bad the weather is, my battery usually get to absorption stage every day but getting to float is difficult this day.
I was thinking not floating the battery at least every two days might affect the life of battery.
Thanks for your advice sir

Just do 30A
It should be more than your solar input
