It is a double protection. Set equalization voltage to float voltage and then disable equalization. Setting equalization voltage to float protects your battery if equalization is mistakenly enabled either by unsteady finger or any such other mistakes.

Sharp guy grin

Okay. The setup currently has Luminous 850VA. I think they are basically similar.

Similar in what sense? Bros they're worlds apart.....

Okay I see your point, assuming that float voltage is already low enough yes that should work

Please where can I get either module? They look like they would fit my need.

I am wary of the Victron battery protect since it disconnects the DC side of things and appears to work safely in only one direction - the literature indicates it may burn up if the direction of current reverses.

This guy's shipping is fairly quick. Reaches Nigerian within 3 weeks, but I guess you may need yours on emergency basis. I'm not sure it is available with any local vendor.

Does this Ceepro have up to 1000Watts capacity?
Yes it does, you can search Google for the seller's number, just type 'ceepro inverter'

Spoke at length with him already. He doesn't have 1kva. He's doing a good work though and I may consider the 600VA if it comes down to that.

Well, they both have similar transformer, comparable in size too. The capacity of the icell is clearly bigger.

I would like to know more vital differences really.

Good morning @all.
Celebrating the arrival of my newly acquired Lithium Ba3s.
Courtesy @Juo,I give him kudos for his sincerity,as I never called him in transacting this bussiness,everything was done via WhatsApp.
This goes a long way to show we still have good Nigerians doing there legitimate bussinesses online and not the opposite.Even though am still in love with my Lead acid ba3s having served me meritoriously,I will be putting them on sale......
Watch out!!!

Sun energy rules....
Please any feedback on your new lithium batteries setup? The Pros,Cons and personal feedback would be highly appreciated. Thanks

Bros, the bolded happening is very rare. When you hear CCs that have died, it's due to either not properly sized or battery breaker tripping and blowing the stuff. In ALL my installations over the years, no single CC has ever had issue. They're quite built to last. And that is why they're not meant to be repaired; but to be replaced if it goes bad.

But there are, and there would, always be cases of inverter failures, resulting from numerous factors. An inverter can wake up and decide not to function again! grin just like that o...

So, now compare when your standalone inverter have issue and u still have ur standalone CC keeping ur batteries healthy and when ur hybrid have issue and nothing remain... Ur battery is good as dead

As for the copy aspect, we know that's not rational. Someone can't just decide to buy two systems just because he's anticipating failure. We're looking at a system that is more reliable, Flexible, and most importantly, batteryLife-friendly

Responding to this extensively earlier got me a bot ban, let me summarise and hopefully this goes fine.

I should have added "vice versa" to the post as I didn't intend to cover just the situation where CC goes bad alone. From you response I can see that standalone is motivated largely for "battery safety" by keeping it at float. If it's not the CC that spoilt and if it's LA battery yes that is very valid. Though am not sure why just 2 to 6 weeks of no charge will easily kill a good LA with some juice in it.

However it still means neither the hybrid user or the standalone user has electricity supply which is the main reason we set-up renewable energy. I also do not like the sound of locking down money by procuring backup equipment grin but it's certainly the rational thing to do if an uninterrupted electricity is desired. Even the big wigs like the victrons spoil and I don't think some hybrids are like Windows OS that just decide to stop working. When my MPP packed up, I had an idea of what caused the failure and that was important for me.

Don't try microtech if your battery bank is low as it is a power guzzler, I personally use ceepro inverter, no load consumption is 8w, albeit no charger
Thanks. unable to get ceepro in Ibadan

There's a NL guy that once tried to help me organize a casing for 8s 105ah LFP for 8k, if I remember well. Perhaps he may be of some help.

090six 84four 8zerozerofive

He does some LFP assembling and has a thread on NL. But I've not transacted any deals with him before unlike our own LFP guy that has been tested and trusted.

icellpower 12V 1.5KVA pure sine wave inverter, though with transformer, but idle consumption is around 10 to 12W....comes with 20A charger. battery settings, charging parameters, input and output settings are all customizable. i have a very clean used one for sale @affordable price.

How much?
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by adrusa: 6:41pm On Nov 10, 2020
Got a 120A Felicity Charge Controller from @justcallmenuel last weekend for a good price. I was a bit crossed with him because he didn't keep up with his promised delivery timelines. He promised he can dispatch same day, but I didn't get the controller until 3-days later and I needed it urgently because one of my CCs just crapped on me without warning.

But, I'm ultimately happy with the purchase. Thank you @justcallmenuel.

I pushed my 5.5KVA Hybrid Inverter to the limit to test it's ability to handle load. I ran three 1HP Aircon, two 1200w water heater, one big deep freezer and a 4-door refrigerator on it simultaneously. It handled like breeze. These hybrid inverters have really come of age.

I stopped at 5211VA, not because the inverter cannot handle more but I simply ran out of loads.

Be careful in the future. Wify once destroyed an inverter by running it overcapacity. Instead of the thing shutting down, it kept working, the wires started getting hot and suddenly there were smokes everywhere. Thank God only the inverter got incinerated.

Sure! It was a test that lasted about 5minutes only and the inverter temperature peaked at 53deg. C
