Abeg those wey dey use sms hybrid inverter. Weitin error 05 mean.

Unless u use hybrid inverter wey fit accommodate the 240v voc. Other controller that can accommodate such are as expensive as the hybrid inverter itself. Eg 140a powmr CC can take 60-450v. N it's for 24/48v system.
Is ur system 24/48v?

stuffs2002:
Ok.. Thanks

I want to connect all 4 panels in series. Please can you suggest any good MPPT charge controller that will be able to handle the resulting voltage.

What voltage is that 58%
If the battery is charged to the point it disables charging. Connect an AC watt meter to ur inverter output and see if u can pull anything close to 13kw b4 ur battery goes off. While draining ur battery, make sure both solar and AC charger are off. Let's see the result.

Tucode:
Hello guys, please I made this post about a month ago and I didn’t get much engagement as to what could be the issue… I have been observing the batter for the last one month and it has gotten worse. Now the battery doesn’t charge above 58% as at yesterday. I have called the technician and he doesn’t seem to know what is wrong either. I have only used the battery for less than 2 months now and I don’t know what the issue could be… Please anyone who can explain to me. I’m thinking that it’s probably an error from the factory and the technician has informed them about returning it.

Enter area, oshodi, the electrical section, show it to any shop owner there, they will point you to who dey sell am.

TSHIRT2:
Where can I get this

Jk 4-8s 100a will be a easy for u to get. It supports both li-ion and lifepo4.

Intellab:
I need 7S BMS 80A. Anyone selling?

It's ip66

chris81964:
He was pouring water on the inverter while it was on. What do you think happened? Did it ecplode?

https://youtube.com/shorts/ni2i-DXlJyY?si=0lxGPJcqM4znFMr1

Aluminum rails with bolts and nuts for 6panels is like 25-50k depending on the installer
100a knife switch is 5k(u don't need 200a)
6mm DC cable is 3800/yard and are you living on the ground floor of a 3story building. That 45meters long o
AC & DC SPD 10k each
AC & DC MCB 16k for both
9-12way db - 10k
4mm AC cables - 900/yard
10mm is overkill for 5kw

I'll advise you get another installer thats not after ur life. He just pissed u bought those materials yourself.

burnerr:
Hi house, great work I've seen being done on this thread.
I'll be needing your help once again.
I finally got the growatt spf 6000es and the growatt hope 5.5l-a1 battery with 6 620W jinko panels.
Time for installation, I reached out to the installer who had first given me a quote that I had procured the main things myself.
Now he sent me a new quote with some things added which weren't in the first quote.
Please could anyone help me go over this quote if it's proper?

Justrite in igando
I don't know if it's supported with nepa.

Peterlove11:
Where was that.....was it totally off-grid or they supported with PHCN and generators

I've seen 500kw 600v inverter setup b4. 3 of it will make 1.5mw. so it's possible.

Peterlove11:
Good day House, Please are there viable renewable energy solution that can supply a 1.5MW facility. Has it been done anywhere in Nigeria and How. Thanks

Goto fouani website and type jinko in the search, it will show you all jinko panel wattages they have with prices, u can easy buy and have it delivered to your doorstep. This is d easiest and cheapest option of getting an authentic brand new top tier panel.
Others like Canadian, era, JA and co, if you are not careful u might buy sticker or used panel. Unless you buy from authorized seller like techlandsolar etc

georgio:
Please house, what are the top 5 solar panel brands in Nigeria right now?
if possible add their costs.
please i need these informations for research purposes.
Thanks guys.

It's 1hp, I doubt the installer made a mistake of getting a higher power pump for u. 1.5hp pump is more expensive. The installer probably used a tiny cable. My bros 1.5hp submersible consumes a little over 2kw, which is not meant to b.

HeavenlyBang:
False advertising. Should be labeled as the 1.75HP they actually are.

250k lifepo4 won't power the borehole but the person asked for the cost of a pack that would power his borehole. Powmr 100a 12v lifepo4 is sold on nairaland for 290k n the cells are eve grade A. Eve cells are expensive and they do 1c. For a 250k pack my best guess is those cells are either 100a 0.5c or 50a 1c cells. which means the BMS inside won't even allow more than 50a in 1hr,

visaclick:
look at another problem right here, same lithium batteries that is said to be be the only thing that will make your solar power every appliance is what this balloon clown below on TikTok claims he can build up. This is how they go around wasting costumers money for their own gains and delivers nothing.

Pov: spot the comment asking of what can power her borehole, nah cry dey load for her.

Mine is an old model I got 3yrs back, it's not like the new model new model that comes with a power button.

Ferdiwar:
Yes I do and the menus of the ones I've worked on and using is longer than yours reason for my comment.

If you use JK bms u will know that the part I sent are the important part of the settings, others are temperature and some recovery delay settings.

Ferdiwar:
The BMS settings page is incomplete.

See the battery percentage this morning and note each cell read 2.9v. those figures don't add up. It should be less than. 10% yet it's over 40%.

Ferdiwar:
Kindly share pictures of the BMS settings.

I coupled my cells with jk BMS and what you mentioned is true. At times my BMS will read 99% and 30a plus will still be charging the battery with 0.006 cell voltage difference. Just like you mentioned, users need to pay attention to pack voltage not just the battery percentage especially when one of those cells don't trigger the BMS HVD which will recalibrate the BMS. I didn't use jbd long enough to know if that's same with them. Jbd or Daly users should let us know if they experience such.

Dam5reey1:
This will be too complicated to explain to client. We didnt not enter BMS settings.
We just working with recommended charge and discharge voltage given.

Cost of waybill, unless e dey the guys location. Plus it's not brand new.

odimbannamdi:
Ah! Why you wan spoil the guy market...

If ure located in lagos, y not buy brand new 60a powmr mppt from odimbannamdi, I don't know d current price he's selling, but should be 100k or lower

okikigsm:
Ok
How do u I contact u then?

Those panels are not the real Canadian panels. N d 2 most likely won't give 600w at peak talk less of 800w. I'll advise u buy brand new jinko from fouani instead.

Kmartt:
60k each for the panel?

Is there a reason y U need this particular brand, y not go for a famous brand n buy from a known source. Once U make d mistake of buying fake panels, to get rid of dem is always difficult and painful.

ManAdii:
Do you have any reviews of Auxano solar panels?

You can check out their website for authorized dealers in ibadan or better still buy from their offices in Lagos, I'll advice u go for growatt(on fouani) instead, price different is not wide. Concerning Ur choice of battery, I'll advise against getting any type of lead acid irrespective of Ur budget, there are numerous Lifepo4 batteries U can get here, U can contact valto with d spec U want, he will couple it for U n AV it sent over.
This Ur username 😂

iCauseTrouble:
Thanks so much. I need Felicity Inverter and tubular batteries. Do you know where I can get them?

Which solar product do U want exactly. U can get some here, panels on fouani (physical n online store) etc

iCauseTrouble:
Hi all,
Is there any verified and legit place where I can get original solar products in Ibadan or do I need to go to Lagos?
I want to get Felicity Inverter and Batteries.
Thanks

Jinko brandnew 555w is 125k on fouani with free delivery if U buy at least 2. Buying multiple units of 265w doesn't seem like a wise move. Unless nah 1 d buyer need.

RickyM:
Like its stated, it’s negotiable.
If I may ask, what brand is the 300W?

Sachet inverter with 3kva continuous draw
Yes

dollarnaira:
Can a 3kva Satchet inverter power a submersible pumping machine of 0.5 or 0.75hp ( old model ) during a good sunlight?

I didn't say that, my saw is 1400w, my battery is 5kw, my inverter is 2kw transformer based which handle surge better than high frequency inverters.

Dreamhans1:
So safe to say a 2 pcs of 550w , 1 24v battery and 2.5w inverter is good to go

1 24v battery
I only use circular saw for thick woods that take ages for jig saw to cut through, I don't use it everytime like d jigsaw, it hasn't failed once

Dreamhans1:
Bros your batteries is how many?
And what quantity of use do you rate circular saw.

10kva might be too expensive for him to setup. My circular saw(power devil) is 1400w, my inverter is 2.5kva transformer based, my battery is 5kw Lifepo4. In my opinion 5kva transformer based inverter will handle the surge fine. I only experience surge when the blade comes in contact with really hard parts of d wood. Extra power is required to cut through that, hence the surge.

Obnoxious2001:
You will need around 10kva considering your start up surge.

Then you where saying 1 battery? What kind of battery where you looking at?

Aside from the solar, I think there is a battery powered circular saw in the market.

Try and explore that option it might be more cheaper than the solar.
It depends on the scale at which you cut wood at the workshop

90k?

That lead acid battery is the problem. Buy 12v 100a Lifepo4 battery from valto to replace that. Incase the inverter doesn't av an inbuilt AC n DC breaker, get d 2 n put it d DC between battery and inverter n AC between Ur inverter output n the change over.

imatejammer:
I got this quote for an inverter set up to power 3 Panasonic ceiling fans and 6 energy bulbs for 6 straight hours: (No solar panels)

SMARTEN 1.5KVA INVERTER---------------------------200k
STARPLUS (TUBULAR) BATT 12V/200AH-----------260K
CHANGE OVER BREAKER------------------------------------8K
RACK -----------------------------------20K
LINE MONITOR ----------------------------------12K
INSTALLATION FEE ----------------------------------35K
T O T A L--------------------------------------------------------535K

Is this a fair quotation?
What if I want lithium battery IN THE MIX? what size and price?

1.5kw PSW inverter here is 100k as well instead of d 1kva
U will need 2 DC breakers n 1 AC breaker too

Unless ure very sure of what ure buying, I won't advise U buy used panel. Most used panel sellers don't sell d real tin. U might end up buying sticker and in the end max U will get is 350w from d 600w. I'll advise U get 1(due to Ur budget) 555w jinko from a fouani store close to U @ 125k. Online store will charge U extra 15k for delivery.
U fit try close eye buy 60a powmr mppt @ 100k incase of future expansion. U can get that here from odimbannamdi.
U can get coupled Lifepo4 12v 100a battery with smart bms from valto if U want close monitoring of your battery's performance on your phone with room for future expansion as well.

gameboy727:
Thank you for the advice.
Is the Powmr lifepo4 battery within the same same price range as the one quoted?

It's just 2 300w panels, not 3. And yes, used ones is a considerable option.

Might b d best 4 u cause u avnt checked out new invention of transformer based. U still dey use old eye look am.
Yes it heavy
Yes it's more expensive
But not all of them suck energy.
My transformer based 24v 2.5kva inverter has idle consumption of 26/27w
Welion 1.5kw 24v hybrid I installed has 27w idle as well.
My inverter face don see a lot, there was a time that it was giving burnt smell because the fan didn't work, it took me a week to figure that it was d inverter after which I installed a separate fan with switch. I put it on whenever I use heavy loads.
My inverter at least will show 10% usage all day n night but I only put on fan whenever I'm using like 40%+. the kind noise some hybrid go dey blow at intervals alone.

Peterlove11:
Bros, Don't sleep on transformerless inverter. Arguably, the best inverters now are transformerless(HF). The world is moving away from overweight, energy sucking inverters.
