Penuelseun:
you can use your old inverter with the battery but get an external charger to recharge. Do you have solar panels installed?

not yet chief…but I will get one after 2 months of getting the battery…

tziz:
I use a 1.5Kva 12v Haisic Hybrid Inverter. Yes, u can't use ur old Luminous inverter to charge the Lithium Batt. U will need an external Smart Lithium Iron Battery charger and/or solar Charging. Or u can just sell off the Luminous and buy a Hybrid inverter. That's what I did, sold my Mercury 1kva Transformer inverter before I went for Hybrid.

oh okay…..how much can I get this hybrid inverter? Can’t I get a used one?

tziz:
I mostly use my 50" TV, PS4 and 2 standing fans and occasionally I use my fridge too when I want somtin cold. I'am not always home dou. Somtimes I use it for a whole day and somtimes I use it over nite. All I knw is; the battery indicator on my inverter has never gone lower than the 3rd bar (it has 4 bars)

evening boss..which inverter do you use with this…I intend going lithium but I have all this old inverter(luminous ) transformer based…can I use it with the battery?

I intend to get an external charger for the battery since I can’t use the inverter to charge it?

Bro, it will cut off charging.
That's why it's called a charge CONTROLLER.

Just like you're the CONTROLLER when driving a car and you won't let the car tumble.

i understand now thanks big

ask4bk:
Even a 50w solar panel can charge your lithium battery if your load is just 20w or less and you've a charge controller that allows it.

Panels being able to charge your battery depends on your load and only you know your load. We don't.

If you use two 450w and then use load of 700w, it won't charge.

i understand as all the loads will be using the power the solar is generating….

I’m hardly at home during rhe day so no loads ….
My question is what if the battery get full before I return home I hope the charge controller can cut of the supply to avoid overcharging of the battery? And what happens to the power the panel keeps generating when the battery is fully charged?

sirneyo2005:
Yes

alright thanks my lord

Available

ksmart027:
No matter what you do, don't buy lead acid battery in 2026 whether brand new or used. My 2 cents.

hmmmm….okay…just a question do we have external lithium battery charger aside the hybrid inverter or solar?

bassdow:
Abeg e never reach like that Joor.

Mind you, you don't need spend much on charge controller especially since it's 12v. Just get a cheap one but should be MPPT.

Also this battery 12v 2.5kwh depending on source is over 300,000 naira. If you really low on budget, would suggest you just buy a cheap used but still in good shape leadAcid battery of between 150,000 naira to 160,000 naira. Could be cheaper if lucky in good way.

As for charge controller, ensure you buy a cheap USEd MPPT else you could end up sending money that would buy a hybrid inverter on charge controller.

Only spend more on charge controller if you have plans for upGrade.

Thanks for your detailed suggestions…How do I know a good used battery sef? Do you have someone that sells good used batteries and MPPT charge controller?….Although I plan to buy brand new Gpower tubular ba3 before but I heard fake batteries full market….

I await your response sir…This heat is just too much and man has been on generator all this while…

bassdow:
YES 2pcs of 450w solar panels can charge the batteries very well Oooo

Just ensure you do not use NEPA / Generator to charge the batteries

thanks my lord…I really appreciate u big

bassdow:
2pcs of 450w would give approximately 900w which is just about 100w above what most charge controllers supports for 12v system.

in other words, YES 2pcs of 450w solar panels would work though the charge controller would slightly clip it .

BUT please ensure it's just a single 12v 200AH battery. Don't try 2pcs of 12v battery which would give 12v 400AH as it would struggle to charge.

That's if you prefer Tubular battery, instead of Lithium based battery.

if Properly planed and sized, a used battery should serve you well enough while saving you money

No I don’t want tubular battery…I want a lithium battery…looking at 12v 2.5kwh…..strictly solar charging since the inverter is an old one….


My question is can those two 450 watts charge it?
Also since I can’t use the inverter to charge lithium battery,, I don’t need to plug the inverter to main grid charge socket because if I do it will charge the lithium battery which may affect it right?

bassdow:
So long you don't plan using generator or NEPA to charge, and youre willing to buy a good enough charge controller + enough solar Panels up to what the charge controller can handle, you shouldn't have issue.

Mind you, the inverter does not have to have selection to be able to use Lithium based batteries so long you not trying to charge via NEPA or Generator

meanWhile, you didn't tell us if it's 12v or 24v inverter.

thanks for your time boss…it’s rated 12v…. I plan to buy 12v 200ah lithium battery….can 2 450 watts solar panels charge them?

sirneyo2005:
You can use it but it's strictly solar for charging your batteries since it has no lithium parameters

okay boss……which means I won’t connect that wire that goes to the grid for charging to the charge socket Abi?

litaninja:
Hmmm, so you took action and made a purchase first, before seeking answers to questions / advice?

you don’t understand…don’t let me use the word purchase cause it’s more like a “guy come pick this thing for recharge card money””….I dodnt really pay for much but since I sent him small thank you change I used the word purchase cause”sold”

Good afternoon guys….so I’m new to this solar stuff and even though I have read many of the pages o still couldn’t find what I want..hopefully someone will help me.

A friend sold me his old 1.2kva luminous eco volt inverter because he’s upgrading…his batteries are dead so I only got the inverter..

I dont like this tubular batteries and one installer said I can’t use lithium battery with this 1.2kva inverter that I will have to get another inverter….

So what do you think?

Can’t I truly use this inverter with lithium battery? I plan to charge more with solar panels though and perhaps once in a while use the grid since the inverter can charge battery….true at the back of the inverter,,no selection for lithium battery….



Please don’t ignore me …I don’t have money for another inverter o.
