Use Bolt/Uber. I hardly drive these days because of them. If you're worried about saving on last mile transportation I'm not sure you can afford running a car yet. It's affordable to use everyday till something major goes bad which would happen since you aren't buying a brand new car |

MeeLan:The main difference between car batteries and inverter batteries is the thickness of the plates. I experiment a lot I've used a car battery (65Ah) with a PSW inverter to supply power (2 fans, tv/decoder (a bit then put off), phones, laptop, energy bulbs) They just won't last long with regular deep discharge but if you use just a bit before recharging (how it's used in the car), it would be fine. |

It's honestly not really a big deal as long as both parties are sincere & not getting it elsewhere. It would force you to be more creative on dates, teach self control, etc etc Sex would die off a few years into marriage. It's exciting but not the most important part of it 24 Likes 2 Shares |

I always thought solar charging was better for batteries (especially LA) and Charge controllers ensure a constant voltage to the battery samnaija: |

kaziem: If the inverter doesn't charge the battery then that doesn't matter. What matters is the CC and if it has the adequate settings |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by gadgetplanetng: 12:56pm On Dec 21, 2021 |
You didn't mention your load. I haven't heard of LiFePo4 exploding Most modern cc's have Lithium settings If your inverter can handle 15V it should be okay Babysitting/monitoring is far less on Lithium than Tubular/LA. I basically just look at my voltage anytime I pass my setup and that's it. A properly fused and BMS'd setup shouldn't give you any issues. kaziem: 1 Like |

SuleimanKano: Reach out to him if you can ship to him and he fixes and returns. Only a company selling bad products would refuse to give a warranty. Solar lights are basically, 1. Led Panel, 2. Solar Panel, 3. Lithium Battery & 4. Board that contains circuit, detector, remote sensor, etc. 1. If water gets in, the board would short circuit or rust and everything won't work, board can be replaced or components fixed. 2. Water can also affect the LED 3. If poor quality Lithium batteries are used they would go bad. Replacement is easy. 4. If the solar panel is too small for the batteries, they'd never charge properly and go bad soon. If they're ever opened use high quality sillicon sealant for the re-sealing. 4 Likes |

SuleimanKano: I usually just order from the manufacturers. I get the best quality (Nigerian importers tend to bring in lower quality stuff for more profits) and they've always sent replacement parts to me if their products fail within warranty (which is rare). I suspect it's poor sealing damaging the lamps so likely water. I'd expect the vendor to at least offer to take them in and fix and reseal if they won't be replaced. I've fixed a couple myself and I'm not a technician. 1 Like |

mustaphagreens: I'm just assuming it's PWM, Chinese have a habit of branding pwm as mppt (and hiding the fact that it's PWM deep somewhere) |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by gadgetplanetng: 6:40pm On Dec 16, 2021 |
Did you adjust the settings on the CC to your battery type? Even if it's PWM two 350W panels would charge the 12v fully. I've a setup with 2 200W panels (24v) and a 12V 200A battery with a PWM and it's full everyday before noon (this dry season) thouh it hardly gets discharged far. If it's a PWM it would draw the roughly 30 volts from the panel down to 13/12v which would mean the panels operating at about 50% capacity (from my observation). Upgrading your inverter and battery to 24v to match the panels would work best for PWM systems. mustaphagreens: |
