Bro check your mc4 connectors. Something similar happened to me. It was the mc4 connectors
Sapiosexuality:
I've already replaced the breakers on the first day that I noticed the problem.

Could it be a damaged cable? A week or two back, I was using it to boil water, something I rarely do and the water got so heated that I heard a spark on one of the cables.

Though nothing happened after that and I just simply unplugged it.

Bro, nack the 585w together with the 535. The 585w and 535 has the same voc. It won't get to 100v. I have 2 535w in series and the highest I have seen my voc is 85-90v. While working it is mostly on 75-80v. It will work.
hoover420:
The Jinko 535 watt I installed is not up to 50v. But the new 585 i got is up to that, not sure though. Also, what do you mean by shading?
There is no how you get 105v. After all the voltage loss due to cabling and distance. If I be you, I go nack am this weekend. Monitor the thing all weekend

Just close eye buy bread inverter. 500v dc. You can stack 4 of your panels
hoover420:
Omoh Solar setup just cost more and more money. This is just a 12v system and I have already spent way more than I imagined. When I wanted to get the Haisic 1.5kva & 3.6kwh battery, no one told me I’ll still need an MPPT for just 2 panels but lesson learnt cry . There is absolutely no advantage of using a 12v system if you’ll still have to use MPPT that cost money. Now I can see myself spending another reasonable sum just to charge battery while still spending close to 25k every month on electricity (prepaid).
Anyways my location is mainland Lagos and I’ll be interested in the USED 80A MPPT you have for sale. Thank you!

Why not close eye buy a single 15kw battery the price difference isn't that plenty for the extra 5kw.
jFrankNorfleet:
I'd run installation for my gamehouse within the next 2-3 weeks

Pls house I need you to tell me what's wrong with this quote given by my prospective installer. Focus less on the price and more on if the setup will be okay for the gamehouse and how to prevent issues with the setup


These are what the gamehouse would comprise


Lg LCD 32 inches TV 140w *2
Samsung 32 inches led 56 watts *3
Samsung 32 inches lcd TV 110 watts *2
Samsung 15 inches lcd TV 40 Watts *3
PS2 fat 80w 3pcs
PS3 super slim -85Watts 2 pcs
PS3 slim-85 watts 5pcs
PS4 slim 100w 2pcs
Ps5 1 pc 200w
Yokaho DC ceiling fan 40w 1pc
1 duravolt 18 inch standing fan 27w 1pc

Note: I'm yet to get ps5 but it's in the pipeline. Also only 7 out of the combination of 10 PS3, ps4 and ps5 can be operational at once due to limited number of 32 inch TVs




This is what he quoted for me for the above setup


SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Growatts 6kva solar inverter: ₦620,000
Growatts battery (5.5 kW/h x2): ₦2,224,000
Jinko solar photovoltaic panels(615 watts):

Is there something that should be tweaked for more efficiency?
You go need buy more panels later to charge more efficiently

Off grid with this setup?
Bryanluke:
hmm.. pls educate me, cux I wanna go off grid with this setup ni
I was offgrid during the dry season with my 2 535w panels and 4kw battery. But this season, I am on grid ó. My ac in breaker that used to be permanently off is now on.
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Gshems: 11:19am On Jul 04
Baba you no suppose spend 10k
Bryanluke:
You're right and thanks for your concern and utmost understanding.. all hands are not equal however you said the aluminium railing for 2pcs of 200w won't cost me than 30k

Also to avoid roofing leakage, if i knack nail with the aluminium on the slate before placing panel, hope there won't be any roofing leakage boss
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Gshems: 11:17am On Jul 04
Bro Just buy the rails. During dry season temperature of your panel go high which will affect your yield. The rail job is not just to mount but to also give clearance between your roof and panel and also let air pass through. The rail náà 6k and the hooks baa 200 naira per one
Bryanluke:
I saw this installed on aluminium roof. I'm not sure this person used rail on this 2pcs of 200w panel. But my own roof is slate

bassdow:
still if you got the storage / capacity, buy an additional induction cooker so while one coks the rice, the other fries the plantain. mayBe you even buy more should in case you wanna cook multiple pots at same time
I no get capacity and storage ó. My battery is 4kw
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Gshems: 2:08pm On Jul 03
No one will. My gas is resting. Only used when we want to cook multiple foods like rice and plantain in the morning . The induction cooker go cook the rice, gas go fry plantain
NSEstudent:
Why would you prefer gas though when you have enough storage and or solar power for it?

Actually the x17u is a major upgrade over x17m the only downgrade is the IDU which has 1GBs POE otherwise x17u is 3GPP release 16 with a qualcomm or unisoc chip vs x17m 3GPP release 15 with an mtk t750 chip

My airtel 4g smartbox hit 45-55mbps steady but when one band is bad you can't change.
Hullabaloon:
Don't you think the bolded is an exaggeration. ODU sim in a smart box is just barely has any meaningful speed. I use it as a mifi every time I want to spend hours away from my house. No matter the location, the speed is always terrible. That box is one of the worst devices to come from Airtel.

Abeg where you dey stream in HD
Hullabaloon:
I've been streaming the world cup in HD channels and it's not because Airtel is the best network here (average speed is 20 to 25mbps). But I noticed an improvement in streaming speed on my PC when I switched from WIFI connection to Ethernet.

Ran an Ethernet cable from indoor router straight to my PC. And it's been incredible so far

If airtel network is good in your area, just mount your odu in a high place outside the house. I hardly have these issues
arazanbal:
@nullie254 and Co breaking down this airtel shit. You guys are just confusing someone more with all this many technicalities about this ODU MATTER. Can't a layman just buy one and be at peace ? I can't turn my self to IT person because of Internet data. Most people just need plug and play and be at peace
