How can you post this, without a picture of the cc display or even give the specs&model of the cc?

In the interim put a heavy load for 1 minute on the inverter and revert

Hollawayn05:


The picture dint load earlier, kindly check again, am currently using the system as we speak and charge icon not yet on day mode

ceaser:


Do you have a voltmeter to check if voltage is coming down your panel wires?

What kind of CC is it that you use sef?

Good day my oga's in house please I need help and advice I have solar setup two 5kws of Felicity lithium batteries in parallel 5kva 24v inverter two cc mppt 80am and 100am Felicity 12 panel of 370w each,1500w continuous road
Now my problem is the battery is short down around 8pm in night. when the sun set around 430pm in the evening in bright wether.
Please my engineer's In the house I need advice

Edit:..good you have attached pics, is this a new setup?.what voltage is the bulk/absorb settings on the cc.
Still do @ bolded with a 300w load

Hollawayn05:



Yes it's a new set up, started using 2 days ago
Absord is 14.4v
All my combine load can't be up to 300w, but I have an electric grinder that is 350w, can I power it for a minute?

earthrealm:


What was the load on the setup...i see u mention 1500w continous load...is this on 247?.

Energy cant be created nor destroyed.
2ndly, does the cc log daily harvest?..check and tell us.
Alternatively observe the max instantenous harvest in watts from the cc

earthrealm:


Yes have someone looking at the cc screen while you run the blender for 1min and tell me if anything changed

Hollawayn05:


Nothing changed sir

What I noticed befor now is that their is a drop in voltage anytime I off the circuit breaker connecting the panel to CC..
The system was okay yesterday am just Suprised

emyfine08:
1500watts load 12hrs
How to check my cc daily harvest as asked?

Cost of Labour is a function of Cost of Living and Earning Power, in any Economy, Nigeria is No Exception!

If Labour were to be Price Higher, then the Cost of the Final Product will be Higher.
If Cost of Product is Higher, then the Income of the Buyer has to be Higher.

In an Economy were the Basic Wage is #30,000 per Month (and some are still paying as low as #10,000!), Cost of Labour can only be as Cheap, for it to be affordable.

Can anyone in Nigeria, pay the Equivalent of $3,000/2,500 Euros PER MONTH (#1.5Million), for a three bed Flat, as they pay in those economy where Cost of Labour is High?
That is #18Million Per Annum, while we pay #1M Per Annum for the same type or even a better Flat, here in Nigeria.

If l may also add, Solar is not expensive, it only seems so here in Nigeria because we are too lazy to use our brain to manufacture anything and the Govt is populated by a bunch of mediocre who are only concerned with Looting the Treasury.

What does it take to produce Solar Panels in Nigeria?
Dont we produce Batteries (Berec Batteries, Exide Batteries) in Nigeria, in the 70s/80's?

These are the two major expense in Solar Setup, if we set our priorities right and stop enriching China, every house can have a Solar Panel and Batteries for backup at night.

Please forgive my rant, e just dey vex me at times.

ceaser:
Just think this might come in handy.

Omo, that Lithium-Titanate bhaad ghan! With moderate use, you may possibly fail to exhaust it in a lifetime. Best case scenario, bequeath it to your children.

Boy go be like, oi, that battery was used by my dad before he died and I'm still rocking it!

No doubt our economy is not very productive, and its like our political rulers enjoy seeing the masses poor and poorer... and poverty has a vicious circle/cycle that has to be broken by productivity and serious determination, the more people earn the more they can afford services and goods offered in an economy but the bad belle people no want am like that!

I was making inquiries about setting up solar panel plant in Nigeria and the cheapest option i got from a firm was 100k USD but not a complete manufacturing plant just to assemble the panels which was quite discouraging for me, as i wanted a plant that makes the raw panels from scratch... I see India also trying to step up in Solar Panel production, we need to do better...

Good to hear, though l have my doubts about the authenticity of that information, without any link/Reference to the manufacturer to back it up.

If that is the case, what is then responsible for the high Cost of Panels right now?
Excessive Profiteering?
High Input Costs? (Especially Power!)

Transformerless inverters are equally good....they can power all type of load. My 5kva felicity hybrid inverter powers my whole flat. I cook, iron and pump water with it. Reliable and has a low idle consumption

Good Valid Excellent "RANT".

We as individuals only needs to know how battery works and then we start DIYing our own too and stop paying or enriching Foreign Chinese and local "Chinese" in the name of Powers That Be.

Here are some videos that shows How To Make Carbon Battery. The Best Way Is To First Activate The Carbon With Acid.

darediamond:

Have you like me personally try to make a rechargeable battery with locally found materials here in Nigeria before? Have you?

When I Mr Dare DIAMOND C.E.O Thin Air Powers® is talking, It is out of practical experiences from series of research I have immersed myself into. Go do your practicals and surprising discoveries would be yours. NO BRAGGING HERE PLEASE...

Maybe I should ask you this: Were the MC4 connectors of your panels left intact by the installer or they were cut off? This is important especially as you said it is a new installation that has worked for only three days.

In instances as where the MC4s are removed, the twisted panel wires often form an arc at the junction of the panel wires and the wire running the rest of the way to the CC. With the arc formed at the junction, a voltmeter may even show normal panel output voltage when measured at the point of entry to the CC. However the current required from the panels will be low or non-existent as shown by the CC.
