if you studied Electronics, or have background knowledge of such, or even did a little research, you would have known better.


why you think most electronics that used to be BULKy, are now much portable ?

All Inverter has transformers.. there is nothing like transformerless.. high frequency use lighter transformers.

coming here to figure out which product/model to buy is very difficult, i always leave getting more confused sad

please who can suggest a good lithium or lifepo4 battery and inverter within the budget of 1.5m for both embarassed

was thinking 7kw battery and 3.5kva inverter

Nice budget, you will easily get 5kwh LFP battery and 5kw inverter with that amount with change for other accessories

Storage useless? How will you be able to download apps via Google play on Android TV? Android box does this thing seamlessly.

16GB is more than enough for TV storage.. how many apps you need on a TV?

Would you still pick 2022/2023 Android TV with Google TV OS over a Google certified 2022/2023 Android TV box? Smart TVs generally don't have memory space unlike Set-up TV Box Suchas Android TV box, Roku TV box, Apple TV box and the rest that have the capacity of 8gb of Ram and over 200gb of internal memory.

Storage is useless on an Android TV.. to store what exactly?
Basically it's a streaming device, that does not need to store anything other than a few apps.

Gaming on a set up Box.. lol..

Android box connected to LED TV is by far better than Android TV especially if the Android box has Large memory space of Ram and Internal memory unlike Android TV that comes with little or no memory space for downloading, gaming and slows down the processor. Android box can be updated regularly unlike Android TV that its software becomes obsolete. Thanks

Hmmm, maybe true for storage. But most Android TV still gets updated if you get latest version, like an Android TV box.

Also Google TV is now available as TV OS from 2022 which is far better experience than Android box. Also note, Some Android box are not Google Certified.. and lastly the integration of having TV to do everything and not connecting extra device or cables.

I will pick a 2022 or 2023 Android TV with Google TV OS over Android box.

So what's the ideal lowest volt for lead acid battery?

12.2V

Any load above 150w is not recommended because it will sag the voltage below 12.2V, even when there is Sun, you can't guarantee Solar radiation.

Hello guys,

So last week, i dropped the chat screenshot of a review from a customer who tested this 3000w inverter on a 0.5hp water pumping machine and it worked well. The customer was kind enough to provide a video; check it out below.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbHrxF6W6SI

But note that significant loads like these are best powered when your batteries are hooked up to solar panels and at peak sunlight (between 11am - 2pm, depending on your location) so that you can pull energy directly from the sun and not stress your batteries

Price: 66,000 (get a refund of 1,500 when you send in a review accompanied by pictures or videos). We appreciate all kind of reviews.
Warranty Coverage: 6 months

Tell your Customer he will change his batteries soon..
11.5V on Lead Acid stop playing...

If we remove the equipment cost, starlink is just the best option out there. I live in Ekiti where even the LTE works like 3g in terms of throughput. Starlink has made internet connectivity make sense here. It also recovers fast when it's raining and that little downtime works fine for me.

I basically stream every every, and by the way they claim that throttling will start from 1tb, I have tried monthly to reach 1tb just to test that out. Here is the closest I have gotten.

There is no Throttle on Starlink.. standard data plan is 100Mbps. However still get above that on 5GHz..

This is test on 2.4GHz after 1 TB mark.

This is fibre, you can't compare to satellite or cable network. Fibre is the mainstay and future of communication. Communicating at the speed of light. It has better latency. I will always pick 25mbps fibre anytime, anyday over 150mbps satellite or cable link.

Fiber has coverage issues. Not every one have access to FTTH. Latency is not bad on Starlink.

1.1TB within 2weeks?. Damn. That's unlimited and far better than starlink. Have been using Airtel ODU for the past 2 months and it's good but isnt unlimited. I hope our telecoms will transit from data cap to speed cap subscriptions with unlimited data usage like this MTN fibre

Far better, please clarify.. Starlink is 100Mbps unlimited.. 38k

Really what's the capacity 0f the microwave, I'm planning to get an LG microwave rated at 1000watts, you know the surge power of microwave is four times the rated power, that means it need 4000watts to start up and my inveter is 3000watts.

1000w LG inverter microwave tops at 1650w peak.. not more than that and it does not surge but ramps up.

Also the solar part will be needed alongside bcuz no nepa light for this area at all.

It's simple na, buy inverter and battery.. talk to an installer near you to do installation

Hello Everyone,

biko who can suggest an affordable solar system that can power a 32 inch TV, 2 16-inch standing fans, a decoder, and charging outlets for phones and laptop.

I would like to know you guys suggestion on a price range & b3 power capacity i should be expecting.

I browsed out Bluetti solar power gen uploaded below which seems expensive for the few gadgets I mentioned I will like to power and I don't even know how reliable it is.

If you are planning to use these devices.. that's mean you don't need the portability..

Get your self a 12V 200AH LA battery for 230K
Hybrid 12V, 1kw for 180k.. remaining change for installation this will provide better power, capacity and upgradable.

You can add Solar in future...

With the knowledge I have now, I would prefer to recommend a 12V 100A lithium battery than a 12V 200Ah lead acid.

It should be experience now.

In 2021 someone quote me to ask if LFP has lived more than 3 years. Today I saw the post I just laughed..

Please guru in the house, how much will be enough to setup a 3.5kva solar system. All expenses plus installation.?

You can get a budget build for 3M..
24V 3.5kva Hybrid inverter - 400k
6kwh 24V LFP - 950k
3kw Solar - 950k
Installation and other accessories - 700k

5M for a best performance build.

I don't even know how real the loads % of an inverter is, though the reading is based on the capacity of load applied.
I loaded 1hp AC with few house loads on my 5kva inverter and I saw about 21% and when I added 1.5hp AC, I saw 31%.

Maybe Compressor never kick in

Just curious, will you comfortably load an inverter to 50% capacity as a continuous load?

Why not?

If a device is rated for 5kw continuous, then it capable of doing 5kw continuous, that's why Inbuilt Fans are there!

What's the essence of buying 5kw inverter to load it 1kw?

Both have pros and cons.
Both will perform great but desktop will perform better under certain high task.

Hybrids and stand alones are great technology and will perform well. Hybrid is like akara inside bread ( sandwich) while standalone is like akara(bean cake) separated from bread. Both will be chewed and swallowed and end up in the same belly.

So there is no change in technology btw hybrids and standalones.

Lol. You are living in the past! Technology is not about having many devices to perform single task!

I have tried adding my gtbank premium Mastercard, Stanbic Mastercard, access bank, fcmb, all declined, and my auto renewal is tomorrow.

I even tried adding my klasha card, which I used 2 months ago to renew, it's not getting added.

At this rate, it's safe for me to just give up and find another solution for my internet.

Don't worry you won't be disconnected.
Last time I had issues, it took me 3 months to resolve, I paid 3 months once.

NO, it does not need to be ON for the pv to charge.
it only needs to be ON for the inverter to produce output power.


Why do they need to turn off Inverter, why not the AC out breaker?
Is it to save battery or what?

[b]12v 70ah LFP [/b]battery bank drew my attention.
Apart from Sun doing the job during the day, could you let me know his load on this battery and the freezer power consumption?
I considered 12v 160ah LFP battery bank an average system for beginners.


Thats why it's LFP, 800wh usable capacity.. will perform just like 180AH LA that's is capped to 50% usage

Good day house, please is there any implication to distance the battery from charge controller or inverter, that is the baterry will be outside while the other set up will be inside between 6 to 10 ft distance.
Thank you in anticipationp

Like 3Meters not bad. but invest in High Guage cables. At least 50mm.
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Dam5reey(m): 1:29pm On Jun 18, 2023
mank1234:

A voltage drop of 220v to 160v in a wire length is close to 30% voltage drop. Who designs such a system? Even a 1.5mm2 cable won't give that except the distance is far - that's not to say you should use 1.5mm2 for your pump.

There are several online tools to estimate voltage drop at specific distance and load current with different sizes of wire. Checkout one here https://www.calculator.net/voltage-drop-calculator.html?necmaterial=copper&necwiresize=0&necconduit=pvc&necpf=0.85&material=copper&wiresize=0.4066&resistance=1.2&resistanceunit=okm&voltage=220&phase=ac&noofconductor=1&distance=20&distanceunit=meters&amperes=11&x=83&y=22&ctype=nec

Edit: I just went back to check distance to his pump. It's >55m. Least he should use to satisfy voltage drop of less than 5% is 4mm2. In my side pump depth rarely reach 10m depth.

Let him give you the Hole depth, wire type, etc before you make conclusion. I am only showing what happens when cable is small with proof this length is not even up to 10meter.
