330k plus, but Valtos sorotec is about 50k cheaper, similar specs.
Ooh, the mighty MPP doesnt hv a lithium profile, interesting.
So your workaround is that you set the bulk and float to be roughly the same value.
This would work for devices with editable charge voltage settings. My 4yr old mustpower and highpower inverters dont have that capability .
Guess i would have to sell them off, when that te comes

Or you buy a charger that has the ability to adjust voltage and current.

Yeah, that should work. Set the inverter to 0 charge and hook up the standalone charger, 75 to 100amps 48v would be ideal, but not common am certain. Ojeyskys seems to be 40amps or so

Yeah, its not gonna be cheap, when you factor in shipping and all, plus tying down funds for an indefinite periods, its in same price point as sorotec, sorotec has 3.2kw 48v variant, which is gr8. 90amps mppt, while this is 100amps mppt.


I laff.

Well, if 330k is the set price, then maybe it'll be more reasonable to import it via online retail store like AliExpress. Better still, save much more by going the Alibaba wholesale platform.

Although if one isn't prepared to go thru the hassles of waiting, clearing and customs, then @futurenix clearly wins the contest.

This is 5.5kw 48v 100amp MPPT with WiFi dongle for less the price point of 3.2kw Sorotec, or better put the price point our dealers have it on offer for.

earthrealm:


@ house, is there a way to use a non lithium batteey specific inverter and Cc to charge lithuim battery?.
I think for cc, one can maybe play with the bulk and absorb time and voltage settings to get it work for lithuim, but for inverter.. seems no show.

If your battery is 12v, you may have a little bit of challenge. However if it's 24v system then your existing 24v lead acid charger on the inverter may suffice. Most 24v LFPs top at 29v, a few go to 29.1v. NMC batteries max at 29.4v (though NMC is not the subject of discussion at th moment). It seems chargers on most 24v inverter allow configuration of boost and float charges to within the 29v range, so perhaps such inverter can be used with LFP.

This is me assuming of course.

Valto:
my sorotec 24V 3kva is 255k firm!
the 48V 3.2kva version is 275k firm!
the 48v 5.5kva version is 295k firm!( touchscreen lcd display) virtually all parameters/settings are adjustable via the touchscreen lcd display

Woah. Just seeing this.

Valto's Sorotec is trying.

But wait. Is the Sorotec with a WiFi dongle included? And does it have batteryless function?

going by the price of the particular one u posted, it will cost almost 300 to 350k to land in Nigeria(customs fees inclusive) the MPS-V-PLUS 5.5kva with wifi is 487usd + 191usd dhl shipping total of 678usd/with about 20 to 30k customs duties.

the wifi dongle is included, and offcourse batteryless function and dedicated lithium profile.

Hello all, please i have RIDE PLUS tubular batteries 220ah 12v *2 with 2* 300watts pv, but when ever there is solar input or phcn input it will constant at 27.6 volt and once there are no input from any of the source it will drastically reduce to 25.2 or 25v. and stable on 25v for long before it will started to drop gradually depend on the loan on it. my question are the batteries ok? they are new battery that are less than a month.
please your input will be very appreciated.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Andreda1st: 5:21am On Sep 06, 2020
Good morning everyone
Please between these two inverter systems which is best:
1. A 24v inverter with two 220ah flooded batteries
Or
2. A 48v inverter with 4 gacia 150ah batteries

Note: the total load is around 400watts but that is only if all loads are put on at the same time minus freezer. Charging will be done through grid for now while solar panels will be implemented later on.

The issue is likely the charging voltage setpoints on your inverter and charge controller. Am suspecting you have a hybrid. For most flooded batterys, they are usually happy with 13.8v float, 14.5v absorb.
Send a pic of your cc and inverter...

Yoy may need to adjust the charging voltage, as your batterys will ssulphate prematurely and die if you continue charging them at suboptimal voltages

480w is about the max load, you should put on 2 x 220ah batts, going by the optimistic c/10 discharge rates however c/20 is the recommend ed discharge rate, so that would be abt 240w.. to ensure longer life of the battery.
4 x 150ah is a slightly bigger bank than 2 x 220ah.but am more comfortable with the flooded batterys ability to withstand abuse, more than the sealed battery.

I hope your inverter is capable of charging & periodically equalizing flooded batts

48v setup is a more preferable/affordable setup, if you intend to add solar in the future

this is the pic of the CC, it is 40a while the inverter is mercury 2.4kva modified sine wave with 20a charging capacity. Both charge faster to reach 27.6v

Thanks for the response.
The offer I got was a genus 2kva 24v inverter and 2 flooded batteries. (Am not sure if it's an inverter that has periodical equalization capabilities)

While

The second is a 5kva axpert type hybrid inverter and 4 150ah gacia batteries. (The 5kva inverter was given to me by a friend since last year and has been lying around in the box. I would only need to pay for the 4 batteries and installation)

i think u should go for the 5kva inverter, since u already have it down, just buy the 4batteries(if possible 200ah)

I need your inputs here, please.

Hello All,

I'm planning on building an inverter system for my home, and I already got 4pcs 12V 150AH ritar batteries. I have also made up my mind to go for Yingli solar panels.

I need advice and reviews on good and reliable inverters (3.5KVA) and mppt cc within a 250k budget (for both).

I' d also like to know the pros and cons of the 24V and 48V systems as I'm yet to finally decide on which to adopt.

Thank you.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by litaninja(m): 2:06pm On Sep 06, 2020
Yes ke....I have focken setup 1.5kw of solar + 3kv mppdolar + prepaid meter. NEPA has been brought under focken control. grin

ceaser:


Your approach will only be viable if focken NEPA has issued you a prepaid meter and you have it installed. The way to completely foccck NEPA upside down is by generating your own supply for free, helped by mother nature's blazing ball of light.

Hello sir,

What is the difference between flooded and sealed batteries? Can you share pictorial examples, if possible?
