Though I plan on upgrading later on

My guy cool down. You have bought already, mistake or no mistake, time will tell and you would have learnt from it. Nobody in this forum was born with super knowledge and don't let anybody make you feel you have killed someone. We all learnt one way or the other. We all have our failures in this solar journey- trust me, even the gurus here have wetted their pants before.
Use your panels and CC. It will serve , no matter how small
You have

Valto:

Thank you. Please do you know how much for 400w Yingli panels

I want to buy flooded tabular battery what is the best and most reliable brand for 220ah and also 1.5kva or 1.7kva inverter 12v?

Please I need advice and recommendations on a good inverter to buy. I already have a good MPPT charge controller, and two felicity 200ah batteries with four 300W solar panels. A 24V system connection.
1. What good 2.5KVA to 3.5KVA Inverter should I go for? My budget is 250k max.
2. Which supplier or distributor can you recommend for me that honours warranty?

Thanks in anticipation of helpful response.

Just leave them to save money boss.

Someone bought a 300w panel toks for 48k.
He boldly sent me pix he got a good deal, behold they labelled 200w panel for him lol. He didn't even get 250w. They gave him 200w as 300w.
They don't want us to bill them, They will learn the hard way.

I can't stop laughing,
Hard way the only way!!

They are supposed to learn from others mistake, but nooo, I must make my mine. Anyway, good luck to them.

Like I always say: "energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but changes from one form to another"

It's either we take ur money or alaba boys take it, u can't escape any.

Juror:

Ok... do they still sell them anywhere?

I can't say for now

Any idea on inverter 12v 1.5kva that's not too noisy?

U won't understand, I wanted to go for the best but i Bleep up because even if I had given my installer the money he would have still go for this same low quality panel but I will return it 2moro and use d money to buy battery and assesories from the same shop

u are better off using the money to buy a moderate 12v 1.5kva pure sine wave inverter from them, then order RITAR 200ah AGM for 170k. yingli 450w is 120k. yingli lagos office sell both items.

osayuwamwen:
This is not about saving money, I went through all the store that I know today I did not see that jinko, saw this choice, vip and sunflex or something like that,

Jinko seller will do interstate shipping for you. You don't even need to physically visit their outlet.

those specs at the bolded is for 300w panel. since he can return it, he better use the money buy a 12v inverter from them, then go for original panel. yingli 450w is 120k. he should go for it.

Find a trusted installer like us to do your procurements.

It comes at a cost but many people are penny wise and pounds foolish.

There are so many advantages of having professional installer like us handle your project from A-Z.
You get free consultations and learn from our vast past experience. There's is always a solution to your problems.

You are likely to avoid stress during repairs. Some installers will even give you stop gaps. There is a guy saying his afripower is bad and doesn't know where to take it to. A credible installer will handle that with afripower.

Sometimes u can run into issues and you will need equipments you don't have e.g I have lent people external chargers to boost failing batteries, some lithium chargers to wake up bms etc they would have been helpless and taking it from one repair shop to another.

And blablabla

Eeeeeeeevvvviiiiiiiiiillllllllllllll

You will not take my money in Jesus name!

Design, install and after sales service different from BalaBlu

The problem is that a noob enters this space and wants to research online and discount the hard worn experience of savvy installers.

Even installers reach out to each other and to recognised subject matter experts for advise and support.

As you said, a competent installer can help deliver a good design and flawless execution and overcome obstacles that would have cost a starting DIYer a lot more money or stress or expensive mistakes.

In the end everyone has to choose their own path because there is a niche and market for each and every - from the penny pinching, poorly informed entry person to the fairly skilled DIYer who paid the price in initial hard lessons and mistakes to the seasoned and well trained professional who has broad experience and depth with various products - all will be alright last last.

You can't buy 380W/400W Jinko at that price. 380W Half-Cut Jinko is 114k/115k.

Please return the panel and buy same felicity "IVPS1512" 1.5KVA(i.e. 1200W) 12v.
Note: I read and watch videos where this inverter idle consumption is 9W - 12W max which is pretty cool.

If you are on budget buy Yingli 450W * 2, else buy Jinko 400W/450W if available.

Rita AGM 200Ah or Ask @Valto if he still has 135ah Lifepo4.

Above are my two cents.

Assuming I wanted to power just lights, tv led and fridge, I would have gone for same setup. But I needed to power something bigger for future biz project, hence it will still take me some time.

osayuwamwen:
I bought this 85k

Valto:
400w ke! odi egwu
according to the sticker specs
na low quality 300w panel be that!
max power voltage 36v
max power current 11.11A (over stated)
open circuit voltage 44.28v

close eye buy original jinko or yingli panels. don't waste money on that crap!

Boss your assumption may be misleading. He has a 400w panel.

Panel Rating = Vmp X Imp 36 x 11.11A

That it is overstated is another topic, untill tested you cannot assume.

osayuwamwen:
Pls is this solar panel product a good one?

You are in the best position to tell us, I hope you bought with warranty in place.

Test the panel and provide feedback most here don't use random panels, they use trusted ones. You can see recommendations and even adverts here!
