Hi thanks for response.

Yes I visually confirmed all levels aren't false.
Also yes I have acquired an mppt CC.
Pls on the CC, what should be the adequate charge viltage on a sunny day?
(On a sunny day it displays 16 to 18v and range of 90 to 180something Watts on the CC PV LED INDICATOR.

It seems you're pitched on 1s configuration with your 18v solar panels for you to get 16v to 18v panel voltage on a sunny day. If my suspicion is right, then you may be cheating yourself considering the fact that you have acquired an MPPT controller; well, except if what you have is only one unit panel of 18v. But with 180 watts on the CC, then you will likely have more than one unit. So consider stringing 'em in series.

The 16 to 18v is the incoming voltage, you have 4 x 150w panels in parallel?.and a powmr cc? absurd setup if so
Better still post a pic of your cc.
180w is too poor, unless your battery is full.
I hope you programmed the cc correctly.
Confirm your panel specs and how you connected them

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Malevonent: 12:21pm On Aug 29, 2020
i need advice, for a place with phcn upto 16hrs daily and 1800w of solar panel, intending to run 1hp or 1.5hp inverter ac for the 8 to 10hrs of no light half of which is at night, would a 48v 200ah llifepo4 bank suffice?. can someone also clarify the exact lifepo4 equivalent of 400ah 48v smf battery .

i have a fangpusun 50D mppt charge controller, that got bad. the cables from the battery was wrongly put in the pv input, while the pv cables was put in the battery out of the CC, it released the blue smoke and smell, i later opened it, and couldnt see anything burnt or wrong. anybody h experienced this or knows how to solve it

Thanks pal.
I'm yet to professionally install the CC.
I'm currently using it on default settings and you are right my connection isn't in series.
I'm moving to a new apt soon, so I don't want to call services of my professional nairalander friend smiley just yet

My panels are 150w x3 (I know I need a 4th embarassed)
And they are connected in parallels.
Yes a powermr 60am cc.
(I have just taken these photos when the cloud was dark and about to rain)
Usually the battery icon never goes beyond 4bars after usage

Connect all 3 in series.

When you eventually get the additional one panel,revert to 2s2p.

Ol boy, you have been wasting energy since. Switch to
3s1p you shud see about 45v to 50v coming into the Cc,

, revert to 2s2p when u have 4 x 150w panels

Since it's just 2 cells of 12v of same life history in series without multiple Ps or Ss(e.g 48v) involved I don't see the need for a balancer in such a scenario; both ends of the charger terminates on either sides of the 2 batteries in case of 24v so I don't see why there should be an unbalance in such a scenario if everything is fine with the 2 batteries.

It's a matter of choice though but I don't see the advantage except that there may be a disadvantage in the case of a balancer that is failing.

Hi Ojeysky,

I also used to think same. Some years back, I carried out an experiment on a client's 24V 400Ah Battery Bank Consisting of 4# 12V 200Ah Batteries... All batteries are of same age (both year and month). The system was installed without a Balancer, but with DC voltmeters.

And all batteries were independently charged to float before installation.

3 days later, he called my attention to deviation among the 2 lower batteries (based on rack design; 2 batteries were up and 2 down). The observation was that during absorbtion charge, the 2 lower batteries always deviate by up to 0.5V (one reading 14.6V and the other 14.1V) and the upper 2 deviating by 0.2V (one reading 14.4 and the other 14.2V)... Meanwhile, the CC Absorbtion Charge voltage was set to 28.8V.

I told him after few cycles, they should normalize.... But, after 3 weeks, still same. All batteries reads same during bulk/boost charge; but once it enters absorbtion, the deviation kicks in. And stays like that until Float and all reading are same again. Even during inverting, battery readings are same.

See, if that system was left like that, overtime, that deviation would become more pronounced and eventually becomes irredeemable.

At first, I added HA02 to only the lower batteries. During Absorbtion, the lower batteries reads same.. Except the upper ones. After monitoring for another 3 days, I added to the top ones.
It's 4 years now, and the batteries are all still reading same at every point in time... Well, sometimes, according to the client, there's deviation of just 0.1V...
Over the last 4 years I've know about Balancer, I can't remember installing any battery (24V or 48V system) for client, that I purchased myself, without a Balancer... Except the client purchased the batteries himself.

And for both 24V & 48V system, I use the HA02 Balancer

Any battery connection, as long as it's series-connection, is prone to unbalance.

However, it should be noted that Battery Balancer MUST be installed at the initial period of battery installation.. It doest NOT aid failing batteries

But for me, I strongly believe it works... Depends on whether you buy from a reliable source or from Alaba shocked

I was more about 2x12= 24v in a 24v system. It will be good to hear your experience with that scenario as I don't think there should be significant deviation if the batteries are of similar chemistry and history

Good evening all,
Pls can I have a review of GSR products from the house pls.
Anyone that have used either the battery or inverter system. Want to recommend their battery and also want to get 2.2kVA for myself.
Any info shared will be highly appreciated.
Thank you in anticipation.

I have been using the 1.6kva(24v) and Tubular battery for a while now without any issues. The brand is not bad.
