Do you have an inverter? How many car batteries do you have? Just remember not to deeply discharge the car battery as it is not meant to be deeply discharged so that it won't drastically reduce the lifespan. If I have a free car battery, there is no way in hell I'm not going to use it. If it dies, it was free and not much loss. Hahaha

Yes I have an inverter and charge controller already that I used with my LifePO4

Since it is just one battery, you can either use it for a solar lighting system or for a 12V inverter system. If using it for a 12V inverter system, then in my personal experience, you can deploy for loads that run only in the afternoon, that means the loads should be matched properly to what is generated by the solar while the battery only serves as a buffer and voltage source to the charge controller


I think I will be using this battery just for TV when the sun is shining then switch to my lithium during the night
How about that ?

Personally if you already have an inverter and panels, if you can't get new deep cycle batteries get tokunboh batteries and experiment.
Better than a single car battery that will die too soon..

I use deep cycle battery already, I just feel I should not let that car battery just go like that

Good day guys. I just got a new car battery from a friend who sold his car as a scrap.

The battery is still new so I think I can be using it for my solar system (I know car batteries are not good for solar) but I can’t let the battery just get wasted like that.


Can anyone suggest a necessary recommendations I need to take so I can enjoy the battery to an extent.

One of the weirdest stories in the bible is the story of Esau and Jacob. In this narrative, the writer, who was heavily biased against Esau, expects you to love Jacob and despise Esau.

I can remember growing up, we all wanted to be Jacob: the smart, witty one, loved by God.

But, on a second look, Jacob was a major villain; jealous, deceptive, a con man and a very dishonest person.

Esau on other hand was carefree, kind, and even compassionate, and never deserved all the ill treatments his brother, mother, and even God channeled at him.

From the start, Jacob probably grew up in the shadows of his brother who was the much stronger and accomplished one right from time earning him major admiration amongst their small tribe - the resentment and disdain Jacob developed for Esau was terribly evident yet without justification.

- Jacob conned his brother of his position as the first born with a plate of porridge. Imagine how profoundly sinister someone has to be to care more about blackmailing your twin brother into relinquishing his position than sharing your meal with him when he was hungry.

- And then the famous con he pulled masking as his brother to steal his blessings from their blind poor father.

- Let us not discuss how he allegedly ended up conning his father in-law of several of his livestocks with shady arrangements.

It seems to me that the story of Esau and Jacob is about a brother's jealousy for his brother whom he recognizes as his superior.

It was a series of Jacob's incessant ill treatment, unending sinister ploys and wickedness towards his brother.

There was never a recorded event in the story where Esau treated Jacob wrongly or shared any form of ill-wish towards him.

Yet, at the end of it all, even when Esau had the power to exert his revenge, decimate Jacob's camp, Esau chose instead to forgive his brother.

To cap the disturbing trail of unfairness towards Esau, God apparently declared “Is not Esau Jacob’s brother? Yet I have loved Jacob but Esau I have hated. I have laid waste his hill country and left his heritage to jackals of the desert.”

Here is one story where the actions of the villains are broadly shown yet somehow convinces you to admire and root for him.

When you think about this now, the sheer absurdity of the whole set up makes you rather worried of some of the foundational lessons Christian children are taught.

There is nothing remotely admirable about Jacob, and he is a horrible example to formulate a moral lesson on.


Another thing I don’t get is how will Someone lost his birthright because he ate porridge. Is birthright then, something Physical?

The option of having an ID on the questionnaire is expensive. I'd rather give the money to you guys than give it to a foreign platform.

My suggestion, people can take a screenshot of the confirmation page when they finish with the suvey and paste here...

Then you can use that as confirmation to disburse.

1) Cells of PV Modules starts deteriorating once its exposed to sun...

2) how long have you used them?

Wow even without me connecting them to battery

It should be 4 months nov 29

ojeysky:


I knew you were talking about panel lifespan and I already adviced that it should not impact the lifespan. That said I have not reached or gotten close to the lifespan(25 years) of mine.

As to the highlighted, what I meant is that perhaps the cell is full and you don't have much load hence the reason harvest is low so increase your load to see if there is changes

Thanks man
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by funshyboi(m): 7:13pm On Nov 24, 2020
ojeysky:


It shouldn't but you can just set a float voltage to check your battery at float(I assume it's lead acid). So don't disconnect it from charging.



Check the panel surface which may be dusty it's also possible you don't have demand (load). Finally there is change in the direction of the sunlight so depending on your panel tilt that may be the reason for lower yields as well

Thanks bro, I’m talking about the lifespan of the solar panel not battery because I think since it’s exposed to sun electrons will be generated and the battery is lithium not lead. Pls what do you mean at the bolded
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by funshyboi(m): 8:03am On Nov 24, 2020
1. Good morning guys, does exposing panels to sun without connecting it to battery simply because I won’t be around for a while reduce it’s lifespan?

2.the peak average amps the panels produces when i Just bought it is 9.0 amps but it hardly reaches 4.0 amps these days does anybody has an explanation for that, or what am I not doing right

Yes you’re right it’s those INEC battery and possibly it lasted because I’ve been charging it with electricity and using it for just laptops until now
Trust me I’ve gone tru the manual times without number the English there is not explanatory at all.

I’ve long pressed the buttons too but maybe I will still do for a longer time Again

Please can I inbox you?

GeorgeD1:


you got to check your cc settings. obviously your charge controller is not charging your batteries to full capacity hence
the sharp drop in back up hours as compared to when charged with public utility using your inverter charging
function. it could also be you may need to increase your solar array.
Thank you the issue with the controller is it has only 3 buttons and it doesn’t seems to me like it’s working cos I keep pressing them and nothing is showing.

Ps
The controller shows 100% after 2-3 hours of charging maybe I will contact the seller again

Hello, I guess we've had a private chat few days ago .. I don't basically know the loads?
The make , origin & picture of your battery ?
Solar to pwm & pwm to battery guage ?
Are your mismatched panels brand new or refurbished? What're individual panel voltages on your DC meter ?

Yes we chatted but not on this issue
The main loads on the battery is 32 inches LG TV
Attached are the pictures of the battery And the connection with the PWM CC

Both voltage on the DC meter reads 18V

I got the 80 watts 3 weeks earlier than the 160w

what type of controller do u use MPPT or PWM
I’m using PWM
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by funshyboi(m): 7:26am On Oct 17, 2020
ceaser:


He probably uses a PWM CC to charge it. The float voltage setting may not be up to the value required to give the battery a full 100% charge whereas the AC charger gets the battery to full.

Again he needs to be sure of the voltmeter he reckons with if it is programmed for use with Lithium. Lead acid 100% charge is a little different from LFP 100% charge.

Edited: Seen that he uses a PWM. @Funshyboi, maybe you should refer to the controller's manual for going about the settings.

How even is your panel insolation? Shading? Orientation? Not to forget that the monsoon is still upon us, hence harvest from panels will still be in the troughs and except the panels are well oversized to cater to insolation downtimes, you can only expect increased yield during the dry months.

How do you suggest I increase The float voltage setting to be up to the value required to give the battery a full 100% Is it from the CControler. Because I noticed I’m just pressing the 3 buttons on the controller and Nothing is changing. Help your boy pls, he’s just an hobbyists

What kind of charge controller do you have and have you set the parameters properly especially, length of absorption, end amps, absorption voltage etc.

I use wpm controller, (picture attached)
About parameters I don’t think I know my way around that there are only 3 buttons on the controller can guide on how to set the parameters guess I have pressed the wrong things.

What is the size and type of LFP you use?

Do you mind mentioning the size of the solar panels and type of charge controller you use?

What type of inverter do you use?

What is the size of the load connected to your inverter?

The above may help get a clearer insight what is happening to your setup.


40 amps (480watts) is the size of the battery
The size of the panels are 160 and 80 ways connected in parallel

The type of inverter is attached in the picture

Mainly the load I connected to my system are just one 32inches LG TV and 2 phones charging simultaneously

Thanks as I await your response
