Manufacturers limit 12V inverters to around 2KVA or 1600W which in DC terms requires cables that can carry 133A. That requires a 35MM DC cable. 150A or 1800W requires a 50MM cable for runs of 1M.. 1600W max load is not a lot. A fridge can easily require 1200W just to start and if you combine that with a TV (120W), Decoder (30W), Fan (75W), lighting (100W) its cutting it close. You definitely cannot run a fridge and freezer together.

Its why with 12V systems you have to carefully calculate your load profile and manage your setup because they DRASTICALLY LIMIT the load you can put on them. Its also the reason why manufacturers came up with the solar generator form factor because 12V works best as a plug-in to devices with a well-defined power profile.
For most people, especially grid tied, a 12v system is great. You can run a freezer(200w) and a blender(500) watts simultaneously on a 1kw(continuous power) inverter.

You might say the initial surge, but that's totally dependent on your inverter surge capacity and more importantly you battery bank.

Except you need to draw over 1kw continuously for a long duration, a 12v system is perfectly fine. 12v systems are suitable for loads below 1kw.

How will you have a 48v system and only have 5kwh battery capacity. Personally I have used and currently using my 12v systems as it suits my load.

Left to me if your battery bank is less than 5w manage your loads and stick to a 12v system

For a 24v system your minimum battery capacity should be about 10 to 15kw bank

For 48v from 15kw upward

Of what use is a system you can't fully utilize its capacity.

helinues:
Are we spending dollars in Nigeria? Just for you people to appreciate the efforts of this government, but you just can't as you might have sworn to something not to see the progress of Nigeria
Now you remember we don't spend dollars, but when it's time to justify some draconian policies, such as energy prices, you compare in dollars.

Continue, all of us will be alright.
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by dacool1(m): 8:10pm On Jul 20, 2025
mctfopt:
Amp-hours (Ah)= Energy (kWh)×1000 ÷ Voltage (V)

So, the 3.8kWh at 12V = 3800÷12≈ 316Ah

While 2.5kWh at 24V = 2500+24 ≈104Ah


316Ah is bigger than 104Ah
I think it's 208Ah at 12v,either way 316ah is still bigger

Samesame247:
If you purchased the AC online, then you were not dealing with fouani.

Have you heard about africa for africa?

Those are items produced substandard to sell in poor africa countries. Those items cannot be accepted in europe or America but would find their way into africa because of greed and corruption which is why you find SON and Nafdac number on rizzlers but police would arrest and detain you if rizzler is found in your possession.

I went to buy LG tv and 2 types were brought to me; one in white cartoon, the other in brown cartoon and they were not same price; one was africa for africa and the other was fouani.

Pls dont buy electronics online unless you want africa for africa...

If you didnot purchase the AC from fouani showroom but online, fouani was no moral right to change the AC for you. Fouani has showrooms for this reason.
How could you even try to justify this fraud. Of what use is their online platform? To sell substandard products?

Call them out, follow up it may be an internal job. It may not be fake though. But still call them out, you deserve a logical explanation.

If giving up the land seized by Russia back to Ukraine is part of the deal then Trump isn't ready to make a deal.

So you expect Putin to give up conquered territories after losing me and resources, plus the USA is playing double standards, Israel can't be doing the same thing Russia is doing and they condemn one and not the other.

In respect of the Lagos Tenancy Law, what does half-yearly or yearly tenant mean?
Thanks for asking, I've been waiting for someone to ask, if they have truly phased out yearly rents why make provisions for them?

Loopholes everywhere
Politics › Re: Lagos To Introduce Monthly Rent Payment System by dacool1(m): 7:11am On May 15, 2025
I don't see how this will reduce any financial pressure. You have no idea how easily and quickly one can become homeless using this approach.

This is just a mind game, whether you are paying monthly or yearly, you will still pay same amount. All of this is a distraction.
Properties › Re: Lagos Slams ‘Exploitative’ Landlords, Vows Action On Unjust Rent Hikes by dacool1(m): 8:33am On May 11, 2025
Let's keep blaming the landlords only, if you have a building in Lagos you will understand.

Though I agree the excesses of these agents should be checked they are becoming a menace to the society.

As for people making reference to old buildings, do you realize it might be the source of the landlords livelihood, he's a business owner too. Do you know most of these houses require maintenance which is quite high.

If you can support the government increasing electricity tarrif calling it cost reflexive, su sidy removal calling it living fake life, other traders increase their prices you applaud them but you want rent to remain fairly priced continue deceiving yourself.

On the long run its a very bad idea especially in an economy like ours, let the next idiot devalue the currency then you will understand why it's better to build the house.
Politics › Re: The Amount I Spend On Band A Electricity by dacool1(m): 5:27am On May 09, 2025
The fact that some nigerians in their right mind still defend this stupidity called cost reflective tariff annoys me. When it's time to justify wickness you make comparison with the rest of the world but when the masses demands what's obtainable in the rest of the world pertaining their welfare you simply remember they are living in Nigeria and not spending dollars.

Has power generation improved significantly? I relatively have same hours of power since 2010 in my area, yet bill is shooting off the roof.

You know the joy of it is that we are all in this mess together. How do you justify this massive inflationary effects in 10years of a particular political party's rule.

Only kids and fraudsters will not complain of this regime. To an adult Nigerian now 10, 20, 50 and 100 naira notes are virtually useless.

A country wants to bill us like the western world yet her minimum wage is less than 50 dollars. Let's all continue pretending that all is well. A big burst is coming soon.
