This is impressive if it is really the fact. I can even sell the 6 months old Haier Thermocool for cheap and add some money to get this.

But are you sure your 70 watts is not the recorded consumption on a 24 volt power inverter system in which case the wattage consumption recorded is always half of the actual AC rating of the appliance.


Please the name plate on the appliance will be more persuasive. I am itching to dump what I have for this power saving feat of a deep freezer.

By the way, below is the name plate of the Haier thermocool. Start up power draw is usually 167watt to 170watts. It then starts dropping and in less than 4 minutes, it drops to around 110 watts in most cases.
Please explain the bold paragraph.

Good morning, my own battery reads about 12.40v when full, don't know why although I got the battery used and I think I am under utilizing my 260watts solar panel as I get a maximum of 12amps on a 12v system with a 30amp pwm cc. Do you think I should get a mppt cc as I think I should be getting like 20amps with that size of panel. The battery is a 12v, 200ah
check the Amp rating of your solar panel.

Anyone who wants to set up a solar inverter system must invest some time in understanding how it works. Either by reading up or coming to a forum like this and seeking for the opinions of knowledgeable people. Many installers out there just took some few days or few weeks crash courses and start calling themselves experts. For me, I design my system based on my readings and information gathered from different sources and only get an installer to do the hard work of buying materials, climbing the roof, fixing the panels and connecting the wires. In Nigeria, you need to educate yourself to some degree before calling artisans or installers be it for your car, house appliances or solar, otherwise, some will turn you to an ATM and even destroy your things with their poor knowledge and then get you to pay for their costly mistakes.

Noo, just one, 28.8 absorption and 27.6 float.
Ok... that means it isn't too flexible.

Yes it is. Idle consumption is ~ 45w. The voltage selection is the Low voltage disconnect of 10.5 or 11 v(*2 for 24v).
45w is something, by battery selection, I'm asking if it has different charging voltage settings for different types of batteries like AGM, Gel, flooded etc.

Mustpower is good too, but I use Icellpower XX2 series, it is a decent inverter and have a good surge rating too. There is also the new model of 2.5kva, but I use the 2kva.
The icell is transformer based right? what's the idle consumption and does it have battery voltage selectors ?

Lol, u will pay o!

12*200=2400

@50% dod = 1200

500w*0.8(ie 80% wiring, panel effncy, all thing being equal et al) = 400w

At worst conditions 3hrs

400*3= 1200

Kindly critic.
how much I wan pay wey go satisfy you, na knowledge we dey share.
thanks for considering cheesy
My query is, the load on the system and their runtime, either day or night is unknown, so we aren't even sure of the DoD to be able to make an informed decision.
at 400w, wouldn't 30+Amps be too much for the battery?
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by dragnet: 9:44am On Jul 09, 2019
Oshomo12:
Hello, I would prefer 500 watts for a 12v 200ah battery, which implies that even with ur present setup, u cannot charge those batteries effectively(u should have about 1000watts). Pls, forget Phcn/grid, it doesn't exist here in Nigeria. So don't add four more batteries to make it 6 in total, those batteries will die prematurely.
why 500 Watts ? kindly explain and show your working. smiley

Pls is there any supplier for efficient DC orbit fans rated about 15W?
Something like the picture attached that can work with 12V AC-DC adapter
search for solar fan on jiji.

I am actually spinning my head over this, sorry am a network engineer by profession. When you say PV input goes into the SPD I am confused, there was only 2 cables on each solar panel, am not sure there is an input to PV. If you don't mind, could you show me this diagrammatically?
I added a diagram but wasn't uploaded. There seem to be an issue with image upload at the moment.

Actually the flames I was referring to were tear nylon brand new cool. I have gotten used 300w from some seller on this thread in the past (won't mention name) but that was before I discovered that new ones are not as expensive out there.
You sure it wasn't a knock off?
many imitations/rebrands in the market.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by dragnet:

.

Yes I have all those, so the cable coming from PV goes into the input, where do I get the cable to connect to my CC? I was thinking there will be output on the SPD that I will then put on my CC.
Please Pardon my questions am just a JJC on this stuff grin
The cables coming from the PV:
goes into breaker (if available) then output to CC,
also PV input goes into the SPD but never comes out.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by dragnet: 8:56am On Jul 05, 2019
ojeysky:
Can you kindly show me image of how you connected your SPD from the PV to the CC, the SPD I have (which was a gift to me) has only input and I am not sure how to connect it. It's a type2 SPD:

All you need is input, no output.
There should be three terminals, +ve input, -ve input, ground/earth.

It's a misleading topic! Themonk isn't a fraudster.
Spamming it on his active ad pages makes it even worse.
do you know my history with such type of posts?

What else needs to be said? both parties are right and wrong at the same time. both parties feel they can do "touch and follow". both parties are taking swipes at those trying to mediate their matter. then isn't it better to leave them alone?

Bombiday:
Most people commenting here are being very one sided and that's probably because they are mostly sellers but this matter isn't as straightforward as you all are making it seem with your judgements. Sentiments have been applied which is Kulkid's fault. If you had opened the thread as a dispute resolution thread, you would have had the advantage but you called the OP a fraudster when all the evidence is against this allegation which makes you come across as bitter and having the intention of tarnishing the sellers image especially as you have gone on his threads labeling him a fraudster.... this is not a case of fraud, it's an after sales dispute. The seller is also not without blame and it's a marvel everybody else is making it seem like he is. Giving someone shelter does not make you mother Theresa and it would have been better to have kept the whole transaction strictly business, it doesn't take a genius to understand that if truly the battery was bought at 12k at a legit shop, it should be an option to take it back to the place of purchase and ask for a swap or refund but what Themonk is doing is pushing the responsibility to the buyer which is also understandable seeing as he didn't pay for the item once and might also have been nagging but the fact remains that emotions are not a necessity in doing business and in this case both parties are either right or wrong if judged fairly and the way forward is to come to a meaningful resolution.

My own rule is simple and as stated by the Shari'a.

1. don't sell what you don't own. (except acting as an agent for commission in which case you must totally remit the sale price before the owner then hands you your commission/share as agreed)


2. If you buy something you want to sell, after payment you must move it away from point of purchase to your own domain then sell.

that's all.

that's why I'm not in support of these una transactions wey una dey buy and sell pregnancy wey una no sure of wetin dey inside until after 9 months because even ultrascan dey lie.

if only people could be honest, things would be simple because the more rules you have, the more regulations you'll have and more structure, then you'll need another rule for another scenario and another patch for a new regulation then amendment again for the rule etc etc and the whole thing gets muffled up.

Very valid question but the reality is that even if the person cant recover his money at the end, we would be saving many others from the accused.
It doesn't even have to end on nairaland, the person can be further advised to report to the police and any law enforcement agency, the nairaland mediation option is just for a soft landing. I didn't treat my personal cases on nairaland and I got results.
