How can your inverter accept both? From the pic is either you are using a 12v inverter or a 6v inverter[which i haven't seen]. Let's say you have 4 x 12v 200ah batteries and you are looking for an inverter you can get a 12v 24v or 48v inverter which will influence how you connect said batteries eg a 48v system will need 4x 12v connected in series making a 48v 200ah battery connection the 24v will requires a series parallel connection to achieve 24 v 400ah and so on
Kk, I get your point now but all I was trying to ask was which connection is more powerful to give more watt per hour

All give same power give or take because like i mentioned earlier the 48v 200ah will give 9600wh ie 48 x 200ah same with the 24v x 400ah which will give same watt hour

8 batteries? Was thinking 200ah x 2 max.

I have light for 10-12hrs daily and i won't be using all those items at the same time. Just 2 or 3 simultaneously.

What setup do you advise please? For the microwave and freezer especially.

Thanks.

In his words, "no exceptions".....his only terms were that if i put it on the roof then it becomes his property and i can use it as long as i am his tenant. On moving out, i'm leaving it including cables attached to it.

The only space for standalone will have shadow cast on it from midday down. Except i raise the platform as high as the building. Its a one Storey building .

Onyoshi, he wants awoof energy. I am sure he will move in himself after you move or double the rent for the next tenant because as he will put it " I am providing free energy".

It's not plug and play, you need inverter that has custom settings, if you don't have one, then additional costs..

I will rather buy 2 quanta battery and have 400AH 12V @ 240K

Than that 200AH 12V for 450K... Cheers

Anyone know of any app/software that I can use to get better information from the MPP solar GK series? The watchpower mobile app is quite basic, can't even access historical data/graph through it.

not a bad price for its worth

We agree, it's also great value for money! Other than the high series connection requirements, it's the best hybrid at its price range.

Victron is telling you that you should stop buying and using Fangpusun. They will take legal action against those that do. Those of you that sell it they promise to come after you.

Hello folks,

My GK series supports equalisation, I will like to know if this is a good thing to do on my batteries and how often should I do it?

Thanks

Had this Binatone appliance connected to my 1.5HP Polystar AC. The readings have been strange. When plugged on it reads zero watts and as the compressor kicks in, the reading starts from around 600w and then ramps it up to about 900w

I will love to have this type of yours. How can I go about it? Online stores? Walk in malls?

Thanks.

And that polystar 1.5hp AC seems to have a friendly power draw of less than 1kw at full blast. Is it inverter AC?

My landlord is very approachable and only comes once in a while. But the wife is something else. When they come home, hmm. And you know jealous neighbors would definitely download events to him/her. And all hell will break loose.

Women can be very sensitive on issues especially the land ladies. Women they generally are sensitive in everyday life. And while you may be able to easily convince the husband because of less difficulty with guys blending, the wife may have (I'd wager most likely as is common with male-female interaction model) have much influence on the husband.

The present set up with 100ah carries me during sun hours but shuts off by about 6:30pm daily at sundown.

The good sun hours usage implies certain things.

You will need put your immediate and short term upgrades/modifications to include getting power efficient devices as replace, and upgrading your battery backup time (in no particular order of course),

The long term upgrade will be installing more solar panels.

that is exactly what confused me. I did not buy an inverter ac, i got a regular ac from Jumia months ago and recently got the binatone AVS

Or maybe your newly purchased inverter is a 24/48 versus a previous 12v set up?

Once I get the cable, next is one/two more batteries, then getting DC appliances to replace the AC ones and also making small but progressive efforts at my site. Once I do roofing and fix mosquito netting, na move be that. Other things will be as the need arises. Whether I Don complete am or not den no fit call landlord meeting make dem no invite me. More so no light yet for the area so I go be king for there. I go even dey charge phone for 50/phone(just joking).

Pls house, is this worth it at 34K? If yes, can I remove the panel and replace with 40watts, then increase the bulbs to 7? I want to strictly dedicate it to lighting and phone charging for my mum. The follow come panel is 6 watts but I don't know if it's 12volts. Anyone in the house that can tell the voltage of the panel?
