Amador1:

I’ve opened the battery and these are the pictures I took before closing it back. Please if anyone knows where Or who can help get it fixed, please do recommend. I have to revert back to my generator now in this current fuel scarcity wahala.

Get a 24v system instead.

ebrymDIY:
Hello Guyz,
I just needed a professional opinion on this.
I currently have a 12V system with 1000W(4X250) PV in use for about 3years connected to 2 220AH tubular with a 60A CC.
Experience has been good but I'm thinking of upgrading to a Hybrid system. Reasons been that I want to do it in phases myself.
Base on the research in this thread i was able to drill down to the following hardwares:

SMS Hybrid Inverter 2kva/ 2000W 12V (Mppt 80A)
625W X 4 Jinko PV due to space.

However, based on my research, I'm skeptical about the inverter ability to handle the energy from the panel or go the route of upgrading to a 24V system with 120A CC with same amount of panels due to space.

My questions are:
1. Has anyone used that Inverter and whether it can stand test of time.
2. Based on the ratings I've seen for the inverter being 4000W for PV, with it be able to handle future PV addition.
3. Would you advice upgrade the system to a 24V system with 120A CC.

NB: Everything is within a budget and can't exceed but has been prioritized.

All opinions are welcome.

Please I need help.
Who fit recommend a good timer switch brand for fridge or freezer? And the price if possible.

For those that are using it already on their systems and fridges, you can give your inputs. Thanks

🤣🤣🤣. I swear na Ozoro poly first come my mind after seeing the advert.

HeavenlyBang:


Maybe na Ozoro polytechnic boys couple am

Omo this Deye eh.

My own opinion, "normal solar and inverter"

Love800:
Okay.
That means solar generator and normal solar and inverter are the same thing. No difference.

But, which one is more better and effective?

Except it's a 24v inverter system, that's only when your 2 batteries will work.
I think their 5,8,12kw systems are rated at 48v.

bleexInc:

Oh really. Thank you for this info. I would have gone ahead to do this.
Can I use the two old battery with a 5-8kw inverter pending when I can get new set of battery.

It's not advisable connecting new batteries to old batteries. The old will weaken the new ones .

bleexInc:

Exactly one year.

How long have you used the older 2 quanta batteries?

bleexInc:

Okay thank you. Will it be compatible with 200AH Amaron Quanta VRLA battery. I have two quanta battery in my current system. Thinking of getting additional two with the deye inverter

Love800:
Hello.
What does this solar generator mean? Is it different from our normal solar and inveter?

In lay terms, it's a box containing an inverter and battery inside it. It also has provisions or ports where solar panels can be connected to it .

Small ke 😁. Please let me know if you still need an installer.

Valto:
looking for an installer based in abuja. can i get your contact? though a small job. installation of 7pcs 475w panels and my 2pcs lithium batteries.

Na wa o. This is the new goldmine o! People will definitely pay good money for stable and clean electricity.

Imagine owning like 6 blocks of 3 bedroom and powering it up with MW of PV, that's good money to be made but pocket go shake small.

Obnoxious2001:


I know some one that sell electricity in his plaza and few house hold close by, this guy dey cash out.
He said if his client decide to be conservative, his sure he will always earn 50k-70k...
Omo I just said in my head if market no sell, light go sell

@Jonescosmos

I always love your detailed writings and e dey give me joy to read. Well done !

ojeysky:


Weldone but are you sure all these appliances can be powered concurrently on a 8kw Deye though? 8 units of 1.5hp and heater alone seem to exceed 8kw already unless you were sure that they all won't be powered concurrently otherwise you may need another Deye in parallel

This one pass bragging o! The man knows he's job well..

I prefer inverter coz I can purchase original products individually and connect myself unlike solar generator wey person no sabi the kind materials wey dem couple inside....

austenzydrm3:
Solar inverter and solar generator which is better

He's done nothing wrong but tried to advise you from he's first post which I guess you didn't understand that your budget wasn't going to get you the kind of system to power your stated loads.
We can be more civil.

F*ck off please!

Some persons already had their inferior systems installed by wrong hands before they discovered this wonderful and blessed thread, only to realise they made grave mistakes.

tivta:


Eya, such is life, i had to ask cause I haven't seen anyone complain about valto, the guy should have done diligence before transacting with anyone.

Thanks for your response.

Will it be safe to use 2 units of 10kva inverters with each unit paired to 2 lithium batteries?

mctfopt:


Get 60kw of PV and 120kwh of batteries. Then you are good to go.

Who has installed solar for something like this before?

What kind of solar set up will be able to power an ice block machine with 4 units of 2hp ACs ?
Each AC is estimated at 1500w and will be used during the day when there is no power and sparingly at night.

What's the max capacity of this product you have?

Iinnov8:
60A Powmr MPPT Solar Charge Controller available.

isangjohnson:

Uyo

AEDC will so hate you right now! 😌

jonescosmos:


The picture has all the details. But since you asked.

PV is 15KWp (16x 600w Canadian Solar Panels. 10x 540w Felicity Solar Panels)
Inverter is Deye 8KW EU Model x2 in parallel
Battery is Felicity 15KW x4 in parallel though capacity test topped off at 13.5KW. So I have 54KW Battery literally.

I pray so. So many can't afford RE at the moment.

TechGeek777:
There's massive crash in dollar rate to naira.

Renewable Energy will become more affordable is this continuous.
