Barezzi: yeah, bro. the guy is a big fraud. found out he latched on to the ongoing airtel new sim pack mega data bonanza where subscribers are given 125% of data when they register a new sim. he then collects money from unsuspecting peeps, buys a new sim on their behalf and subscribes for a data package far less than what they pay him for and pockets the remaining cash. that's why the mega data usually runs out within 3 months. anybody can do what he's doing provided you buy a new sim. and its not restricted to airtel. glo and mtn have similar bonanza running. let's all be guided. 2 Likes |

dunka, he started well and I actually got my money's worth in the first and second transaction hence the reason i decided to endorse the thread but the subsequent transaction didn't meet up to expectation. I guess it's the typical nigerian syndrome. he probably got greedy over time. 2 Likes 3 Shares |

NiyiOmoIyunade: well done niyi. I couldn't have said it better. for a small battery bank of less than 100ah one could take the risk of going lithium but for peeps like us having an oversized bank, plunking down such a humongous amount of dough on a technology whose overriding appeal is a promised future performance not yet proven in real world applications, is a gamble taken too far. 5 Likes |

guys please note that I have withdrawn my support for this thread. turns out that the guy in benue state doing the actual mega data thing has turned fraudulent and has started scamming people. transact with him at your own risk 1 Like 2 Shares |

Im2Busy2Bother: the plan to oversize was a deliberate attempt to beat south-south constantly cloudy weather. thanks to zeestone for helping out with the first half of my array - 24 units solarworld. I was quite impressed with their professionalism. juo and his team of experts came on board for the second half - 24 units canadian solar which was supplied at wholesale price by gennex early last year. in all, a great team I was privileged to have crossed path with. |

Im2Busy2Bother: lolz. this is serious work oh. especially on this occasion when I'm at the countryside catching nature's cool breeze anyway, I'll attempt to answer some if not all your inquiries. apologies if I'm not detailed enough. 1. number of batteries: 12 nos, 12v, 260ah, totaling 780ah 2. total nos of panels: 48 nos (24units 315w solarworld, 24units 330w canadian solar) 3. total load: this is a bit tricky but I'll try. btw 2500w to 3500w 4. inverter make and capacity: magnum ms4348pe, 4,300w capacity @48v 5 Likes 1 Share |

NoMoreTrolling: brother, there's no other secret to my agms longevity besides doing the basic things. coming into renewables over 10yrs ago as a green horn, I had a steep learning curve. using 4 units of 200ah batteries, I went quickly from a locally made inverter that nearly set fire to the house I was living in, to a chinese made inverter that died on me suddenly one cool morning, to another chinese inverter before finally deciding that enough is enough. in all it didn't take me long to realise that the backbone of any solar system is the batteries. when you size your battery bank properly, give it enough charge to keep it happy everyday, it will last for a very long time - and that's what I did. all the learnings I gathered from my first set of batteries, I put them into good use when I was preparing my replacement battery bank. proper load audit, a battery bank size to match my expected load and the right solar array size to give enough juice to make my battery bank happy. and it has paid off for me several years down the road. 4 Likes |

viazi: hello viazi, sorry I'm just seeing your post. I've been unavoidably busy. my zenith agm batteries are 6yrs already and still counting and from their current stellar performance they would easily cross the magical 7yr mark come september. like I said in an earlier post, solar power isn't rocket science: know the basics and apply the principles and you'll keep smiling while others continue battling with self-inflicted issues born out of ignorance. that said, I'll be happy to meet with your friend one on one and discuss. send me a pm through nl and i'll avail you my contact details. 1 Like |

samnaija: samnaija, not exactly, bro i'm still using the protek brand till date but that doesn't mean i wouldn't speak out to warn other prospective buyers of their shylock tendencies. as for being in hibernation, that also is not exactly correct. if you check my profile, i've always been around but what's the point posting repeated answers to questions already made good by able members like niyi, chris, bigrovar, saipro, zeestone, pranil, et al? 1 Like |

adrusa: adrusa, apparently you haven't been following posts here on this thread. the protek water heater is not exactly what it is advertised to be. besides being easily susceptible to leaks, there's supposed to be a 3 year warranty on the product which the vendors never have the intention of honoring. and, did i mention that it is a white label....? 3 Likes |

NiyiOmoIyunade: hello niyi, why not just get yourself a premium inverter and save yourself all this stress. i personally went through the whole learning curve starting with a locally made inverter, then a chinese one and then an indian....until i finally got tired of all the wahala and got a magnum inverter. since then it's been a hassle-free run for me. no worries about high idle current draw, no worries about spurious trips, no worries about main boards failing without notice...i seldom have anything to contribute when I hear of felicity and mustpower issues because they're strange to me. solar shouldn't be this hard, i think. join the best-in-class team bro, you know you can! 2 Likes |

Namzy: i have some meters of red and black 16mm cables used in my last installation. if interested you can pm me. but note however that it's not multi-strand and the insulation has been scrapped in a few places (will require you applying the usual black electrical insulation tape to make it good) |

hardywaltz, i think you have answered the question yourself. if the location will be unoccupied for the better part of the year, then it's better to install sealed maintenance free batteries. flooded batteries are not advisable except you plan going to top them up on a regular basis or sending someone else to do it for you. there are provisions for auto water fillers in after market purchases but that is a different kettle of fish altogether. 4 Likes |
