Use a 12v system

2kva inverter - 280k
3 550w panels - 360k
Cworth 2.5kwh battery - 430k

Dam5reey1:
Taico available 220k
Cworth 12V 100AH. From Monday 187k

AndroBlaze:
My personal experience is it is no better than a Cworth battery and I would only recommend if you get an extremely low price or are buying multiple units.

If you will only buy one of the 12v 100ah and need full capacity, buy something else.

Lenkus:
The battery has been around for a while and someone did a capacity test on the 12v 100ah lifepo4 battery on TikTok. The result was fantastic, it pulls 110ah from it. The Company is suffering from inadequate marketing.

Dam5reey1 sells the 12v 100ah for N220,000.00

Final Setup

6kw Deye Offgrid
14kW Panels (3x605w JA Solar, 12x440w Jinko, 10x500w Cworth)
Victron 150/70 Charge controller
26.5kw Deriy Lithium and Cworth Lithium in Parallel with Busbar
Victron Smart shunt 300A
Junktek 100A shunt
Raspberry Pi 5 (running Solar Assistant)
Orange Pi 3 (running Solar Assistant)
Windows NUC (running Home Assistant)
Starlink for home internet
GLi.net router

Programmed Home Assistant using YAML for various automation, and created sensors from mqtt stream from SA. Influxdb for database. It also shows live individual power consumption of each devices in the house through smart plugs HA integration and custom auto-entites.

Since we going all in on renewable energy, gas hobs were replaced with ‘real’ induction cooker (max 3000w on highest settings with all 4 burners on, enamel cast iron pots).

Average daily load 30kW (Home Assistant programmed to do load management automatically, with pv forecast, so 3 AC, Induction hob, water heater, microwave , airfryer etc, every device is connected and will never exceed the 6000W rating of the inverter)

100 percent off grid, ie Island mode, no physical connection to grid. The wife is happy, I’m happy.

If you need any guidance on home assistant coding for your set up, you can private message me.

Grid erratic fluctuations made me avoid it till now. Grid here is even 180v and still fluctuates and can surge anytime.

It is better for inverters to pass through a "stabilizer" at least.

DONT TRUST NAIJA GRID.

omotoda:
You actually don't need target savings for the Lithium .Just assume you want to replace the tubular and use the funds to replace with LFP.

Good tubular ranges between 280k-300k.Replacing 2 units is like 600k.That will get you an equivalent LFP. Add some change, you get higher capacity LFP.Shikena!!!If you state your budget for the battery, people will give you more than enough options.

saxwizard:
How did you connect the panels.

saxwizard:
The charge controller has an app you can download on your phone and connect via Bluetooth. You will be able to see how your panels are performing


You might experience this if your panel is not able to give you the required load consumption. It will take the rest from the battery.

You would need to do further testing to be sure what is the root cause.

HeavenlyBang:
No offense but this is the kind of thing that happens with tubular batteries

Good morning guys, please I need help with my MPPT controller. I can't seem to get it to charge my battery even though there is PV input.

This is 10am, I drained the battery to 12.0v overnight and by 7.30am it had already gotten to "full" level at 12.8v and started flashing (mppt mode off), I plugged about 323w of load in it because it was pulling in like 560+w at the time.

To my suprise, the inverter voltage went down to 11.9v (22% load). After 2 hours I removed the fridge to about 14% load and the voltage went to 12.1v. funny enough the mppt still maintained that the battery is full and so it refuses to charge the battery or fast. I have the Manual with me and I don't know how to go about it.

My system: 12v 200ah tubular battery, 2*300w and 1 585w panel.

amicdan:
Hi bro,

Which product of 80 amps CC are you using?

fuckboys:
what’s your battery capacity?

fuckboys:
there is an output on the battery, no thats not the inverter I'm using, it's sukam falcon plus 1.5kva

ab221:
Hello!
I want to order solar panels from fouani. Is there a procedure to follow or its a straightforward add to cart and proceed with payment? I'm asking because i remembered some complaints of delay in processing and sending.

Dam5reey1:
It's is 11kwh Batteries and 6kva Flat mounted Growatts ES 6000 plus. It has wifi just as the regular one.
It's a cool all in one. We can help you install it, or you use Fouani installers too.
But it shows out of stock on the website though, maybe available at showroom

Haykay2001:
Hv not been following your question.. Let me ehter from here... What are their load like...

From what the above perosn gave you, its good but lately all this 12v hybrid inverter are noting to write home abt..

Just hv that at the back of your mind.. If only you can get the sern 12v system... Apart from that, other are noting to write home abt... Sako, welion, sms, and those at that level...

If your load is max fan, with your budget, will advice you go for serchet inverter.. 24v own and powmr cc the 2 are under ₦200k maybe ₦190k something the cworth battery the oga bise said 12200 own at ₦555k.. Then jinko 555w x2 ₦300k...wire and the rest you should be fine with 1. Something million..

dollarnaira:
All odds during an urgent installation:
Battery 12v 314ah lifepo4
PowMr cc 100k
3kva Satchet inverter 100k
Cable 6mm² 10yrd 40k
2 555 Jinkos 240k
Balancer 18k


Loads: 65inch tv, freezer, 2 fans, 6 bulbs, 1 0.5h submersible for 15mins water don full.

Add am up.@Darey00
Na who get sense they use solar. Do not follow trends. Do what works. Good energy goes beyond fine boxes.

bassdow:
I also have a 12v, 2 * 300w panels and plan to add
To best of my knowledge, 300Watts panels ain't 12-volts Ooo. they're classified as 24-volts even though they could even give you upwards of 30-volts.

12-volts (~17 to 18 volts) Solar panels have wattage in the range of 100w to 200w .

Well mayBe I am not so up to date

amicdan:
Hi Bro,

Please what is your PV configuration like when you were using Powmr?
Quantity of panel? Wattage and Voc?
Surprised to see more than 50 amps on a 12V setup. Would love to generate same.

Dam5reey1:
Another BIY installation completed..

Roof didn't allow use install all the panels on same direction hence additional charge controller..

6kva, Cworth
5, 600w Cworth on Inverter
3, 600w Cworth on the controller
15kwh Cworth Battery
PowMr 60A

omotoda:
Yes ,with 300k you will get good grade A LFP 12.8v 1.28kw which is equivalent in capacity to 12v 200ah tubular but better because you can discharge to 90% with no effect on battery.But considering your tubular is just 4months old,I guess you will still enjoy it for at least 3 years if you do not discharge beyond 50% capacity and charge back immediately after use .
