Nothing like too big....
So far you can charge it back..
It is a crime to earn 3m monthly while you spend just 500k. grin
Lol bro, this your example no follow o, i dont mind earning 10m monthly and just spend 2m monthly.

But its because i keep seeing people mention idle time abi idle consumption and the rest, so i feel its better to buy what one can comfortably consume rather than buying something larger than what one needs at the moment

at this point, I think you should just go with mrreed offer then pair it with a 3.5kva inverter from bread, cworth or haisic.

And you know the bigger the battery bank, the more panels you would need to cover for it. This setup requires at least 2,500w of solar power.
So when i go for 3.8kwh or the 5kwh, how many watts of solar panels will i need in total?

Mrreed:
How about a 25.6v 7.1kwh for 820k (wooden case) or the same battery capacity in a metal case for 900k?

If you would also like to DIY, I have
REPT 280AH 82K
Eve 150ah 57k
Haba boss, i was even asking if the 5kwh was not too much for the total load of 528 watts, you come dey come up with 7.1kwh? Its well.

And by the way i am not doing the DIY ish, thanks.

To avoid the continuous back and forth, you should state your budget, load and required hours of running. This way you can get the best suggestions.
Budget 1.8m.
Total load 528 watts.
Atleast 8 to 10 hours backup after sundown.

DIY with smart BMS is better. Forget all those brands of batteries
So does it mean SRNE and cworth batteries and the likes dont have smart BMS?

Valto:
12v 1.6kw hybrid inverter with the 12v 3.8kwh lithuim is a far better combo smiley cheers
Thanks boss. Initially i wanted to go for a 5kwh 24v but because they are all over 1.2m is why i settled for 3.8kwh 12v.

But this evening i saw a deal of 5kwh 24v bread brand battery for 880k, and i want to go for it, with a 3.5kva hybrid inverter
Please is the battery size too much for the total load which is under 600 watts? And is bread a good brand? Thank you
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 11:31pm On Jul 20, 2025
Trippledots:
I suggest you do that 3.8kwh and a 12v hybrid like bread or haisic 1.5kva inverter. Better soup naim be that.

I think it's 208Ah at 12v,either way 316ah is still bigger
Thanks bro
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 11:27pm On Jul 20, 2025

he mentioned a load of just under 600w. The12v 3.8kwh is gonna give him longer backup time and cheaper also.
Thanks boss for the input, i wanted to go for a 5kwh 24v but because they are all over 1.2m is why i settled for 3.8kwh 12v.

HeavenlyBang:
Lower voltage just means higher current. Wh is capacity regardless of the voltage vs current split.

Just to be sure, you realize your battery and inverter needs to have the same voltage too, right? If you're buying a 12v battery, then you also need a 12v inverter.

Cworth is OK at best. Not great. You're better off buying a battery from Mrreed or Valto. Also, it's better to do 24v over 12v.
Thanks boss, but like someone mentioned, wont the 24v be too much for a total load lesser than 600watts
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 11:19pm On Jul 20, 2025
mctfopt:
Amp-hours (Ah)= Energy (kWh)×1000 ÷ Voltage (V)

So, the 3.8kWh at 12V = 3800÷12≈ 316Ah

While 2.5kWh at 24V = 2500+24 ≈104Ah


316Ah is bigger than 104Ah
Thanks boss for the input

HeavenlyBang:
How is a 2.5kwh battery bigger than a 3.8kwh one please.
I noticed he later mentioned 3.8kwh is bigger. But my reason for asking was because of the difference in volt in both, normally i know a 3.8kwh is bigger than a 2.5kwh. But because the 2.5kwh is 24v and the 3.8kwh is 12v, hence my confusion on which will be better for a total watts load of 528watts? (freezer inclusive).

And is Cworth lifepo4 battery a good brand, or please if you can recommend another better brand bro
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 8:51am On Jul 20, 2025
Please my experts in the house, between a Cworth 2.5kwh 24v and a 3.8kwh 12v which is better for a total watts load of 528watts?(freezer inclusive).

Valto:
thanks for the mention. We have 24v 2.5kwh and 3.6kwh lifepo4 battery that are cheaper than 2pcs of tubular batteries
Oga valto, you still did not reply how much for the 2.5 and 3.6
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 2:54pm On Jul 15, 2025
HeavenlyBang:
Bread, Firman, Haisic all sell 3kw+ inverters for around 400k.

SRNE has a 3.3kw for about 490k.
Thanks boss, And for the Lifepo4 battery any idea of a good brand too?

And how many panels do you recommend and their watts each?
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 2:53pm On Jul 15, 2025
cutefy:
As for me, I'll pick a 3kva inverter over the 2.5kva inverter provided your money can handle the cost. There are reasons for this anyways.
I will go for the 3kva inverter, any idea on a good strong brand? And for the Lifepo4 battery any idea of a good brand too?

Valto:
thanks for the mention. We have 24v 2.5kwh and 3.6kwh lifepo4 battery that are cheaper than 2pcs of tubular batteries
so how much is the 2.5kwh and 3.6kwh respectively, and what brand are they?

cutefy:
He did justice to your question and from his explanation, you should understand better that 'Yes' is the direct answer to your question
Ok noted, thanks.
Please any input in the inverter to go with it? 2.5kva or a 3kva, and what brand is the best, thanks for your input
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 10:26am On Jul 15, 2025
HeavenlyBang:
Yes, a 2.5kwh lifepo4 battery is better than two 200aH tubular batteries.

You can buy from Mrreed or Valto. I bought a 4kwh battery from Mrreed for someone last month and it's been working great without issues so far.
Ok noted, thanks.

AndroBlaze:
Like has been advised severally on all knowledgeable sites about lead acid batteries, if you want it to last it's average life of 3-4 years, don't do past 50% of capacity. So with the options you mentioned the regular power from the 2 batteries is either 2.4- 2.6kw. As for the lithium you can drain it to 95% of its rated capacity for the next 5 years and more without noticing much difference in its performance.

Now, not sure if you intend to use all the appliances you mentioned at the same time. If you do then it still makes more sense to buy lithium as lead acid only appreciates being drained slowly and not being drained in a period faster than 10 hours. In this case, that means on your lead acid bank the maximum load you should do at a time is 480-520wh (depending on which type you get). Also the 10hr rule I gave you is for top LA batteries, most of the standard ones is actually a 20hr rule, so that cuts your maximum to half 240- 260wh. Lithium is not interested in these rules, just don't exceed what the BMS can take and you will be fine.

As for the options for the inverter, as far as I am concerned, it's six of one and half a dozen of the other. Just pick the one with the better build or price, whichever is more important to you.
Lol boss, omo this plenty technical assembly was not straight to the point for me o.

I just wanted a yes or no to 'can one 24v 2.5kwh 100ah lifepo4 battery do the same job of two tubular batteries of 200ah or 220ah for solar backup when the sun is down? Since i cannot buy a 5kwh lithium battery alone which is over 1.2m to 1.4m. Because i dont want my total budget for the setup to be over 1.8m.

And for a total watts of 528, what inverter is best to go with the lifepo4, is it a 2.5kva or 3kva inverter, thanks boss.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jbond(m): 5:24pm On Jul 14, 2025
Good day my engineers and solar tech savy people on this thread, please i need a little guidance from you guys.
Can one 24v 2.5kwh 100ah lifepo4 battery do the same job of two tubular batteries of 200ah or 220ah for solar backup when the sun is down?
I would have gone for the 5kwh lithium ion but the prices are too high, and i want to join the lithium gang so please your input is needed.

And please also advice if a 2.5kva or 3kva hybrid inverter will be better for the lifepo4 24v 2.5kva battery.
Its to power the following items:
1). Freezer: 105 watts
2). 55inch tv: 135 watts
3). 32inch tv: 58 watts
4). Sound bar: 140 watts
5). 2 fans: 45 watts each (90 watts)
In total: 528 watts.
For the fans i am planning on changing them to solar fan, i already have one, thank you
