Please house, I have these 2 Lontor rechargeable fans one is 30 watts with 2 pieces 4500mah battery, the other 24 watts with 4500mah battery.
Both are used in one small shop.

My question is can I get a 50 watts solar panel and connect direct to those fans or should I use a charge controller?

If a charge controller is needed, what type or capacity is ideal?

Those fans are only used between 10 am to 5 pm
Buy a 300w inverter with 50AH battery and 100W solar panel. I think that should cover the load

I plan to set up a 3.5KVA/24V Inverter system without solar panels for now as the tenancy agreement doesn't allow solar panel installation on the roof, but I want a system which allows for solar in the future. I believe that's what is referred to as hybrid system from my research.



So far, from my research, these are the items I would be needing:


MPPT charge Controller (24V/60Amp)
Solar Cable
Any need to buy a solar charge controller and cable when your location don't allow solar roof installation?

My friend wants to purchase 4 pcs of canadian pv 300w at 65k in alaba market.
I wanted him to buy 2 pcs of 550w Jinko pv from Gennex at 149k each, buy 3kva 24v hybrid inverter with higher Vds and go for 2s1p.
I hope he won't fall into the hands of stiker pasters.
These sticker guys sef grin

Now we have every fake solar panel in Alaba going by the name of Canadian Solar panel after Trina. Lol.

abge who fit answer this question? very important
You can't. Seller/AE decide the courier to use. But if what you are buying has already been purchased by many Nigerians, you can read though the reviews to see what they say.

Eg Anker/Soundcore love to use NIPOST, all you had to do is checkout the reviews to see Nigerians asking them to use Speedaf smiley grin

I'm sad with my experience on Bitmama just now.
I used the "MAX" feature to fund my account and it says it'd pay me $48.09 out of the original $48.25. That's understandable.
Upon card creation, I was only credited $30. I checked my USDT wallet and I still had $16.67.
I tried funding the card with the remaining USDT wallet. It kept on saying "Insufficient Balance".
I chatted Customer Care and she's telling me to fund only $14.
What I even wanted to buy is $45. 😟
I tried funding bit by bit if it would allow me access to my full money. I tried $8 first, but guess what? Another $1 was deducted for card creation. Isn't it supposed to be a one-time fee till the card expires? 🤔😐
Now, I'm just confused.
My USDT is now $7.67 and I can't even achieve my aim of creating the card.
These fintech is just finessing us out of our lean funds sad

Any reason why they won't allow a total of 45USD to be created at once? Damn.

25 days. The location doesn't make it faster or slower though. It has to do with if customs will release it in time.

Putting up prices of items for sale open to public view

There are several pros and cons to putting up prices of items for sale open to public view.

Pros:

Transparency: Customers appreciate transparency, and being able to see the prices of items before they ask about them can help build trust and credibility with customers.

Efficiency: It can save time for both customers and employees if prices are clearly displayed, as customers can quickly see if an item is within their budget and employees don't have to answer as many price-related questions.

Comparison shopping: Customers can easily compare prices between different items or different stores if prices are displayed.

Cons:

Price haggling: Some customers may try to haggle down the price of an item if they see that it is priced higher than they expected, this may still occur in DM though.

Price changes: If prices are constantly changing, it can be difficult to keep track of them, and customers may be confused if they see different prices for the same item at different times.



Conclusion

Ultimately, the decision of whether to put up prices of items for sale open to public view or by request is a matter of personal preference and business strategy. There are pros and cons to both approaches, and the best approach for a particular business will depend on a variety of factors.

I am in favor of displaying prices. At the very least, I would like to see a price range. For example, when I shop on Alibaba, I am more likely to contact sellers who display their prices than those who do not. This is because it allows me to quickly see if an item is within my budget and eliminates the need for me to ask a lot of questions in order to make a decision. In my opinion, displaying prices makes for a faster and more efficient shopping experience.

I downloaded DavidPov videos regarding Growalt videos on Friday night and watched the videos yesterday morning before seeing @ViperVIP comment regarding the inverter and I tend to agree with you on the claims of certain aspects of they inverter.
A friend bought his Growatt inverter from the US and has had no problems. Are they selling defective units in Nigeria?

It's interesting that you learned about Growatt from the not-so-technical YouTuber Poz. You should also check out Will Prowse. He's an excellent resource for information on Growatt inverters

You will pay $1 - card creation fee.
And $1 - everytime u wanna top up
I personally stopped using them.
But they are working well.
So if I want to top up $5 I'll pay $1? That's some crazy fee

Hello. It it possible to have a solar system that powers just my laptop and phone ..... or is there a product out there already?
Go to Jumia and type in the search bar "solar generators" or if you want to go for a specific brand "Qasa Solar Generator" or "Bluetti Solar Generator" or "Solar Laptop Powerbank". You'll see a lot of options to chose from if you don't want to DIY the system

Thanks, is there any website or ways to know the areas that are more prone to lightning strikes?

Those I'm Benin City, have your inverters, Cc or panels experience damages due to lightning strikes?
I dunno about websites, if you live in an area prone to lightning strikes, the results are there in the form of damaged inverters, TVs etc after a thunderstorm.

Also you'll notice a lot of strikes during rain.

Thanks, which did you previously used and what's your experience like?

Which can last minimum 5 yrs plus?
I used the Fangpusun FLEXmax solar charger controller, which has a lifespan that depends on a variety of factors. These factors include how close you run it to the maximum open circuit voltage, how cool it runs (which is determined by the location), the protective devices you have (a surge protective device can help), and the area of the city you live in (some areas are more prone to lightning strikes than others).

Fangpusun FLEXmax 60A vs Fangpusun Blue Series MPPT 150/60 vs Epever eTracer 60A, which of them charge faster and that's more durable?
As a biased one time user, go for Fangpusun FLEXmax grin

Can someone please explain why a resistive load draw more amps than inductive load of same power rating.
Sure. The amount of current drawn by a load is determined by its resistance and the voltage applied to it. According to Ohm's law, current is equal to voltage divided by resistance. So, for a given voltage, a load with a higher resistance will draw more current.

A resistive load is a load that simply converts electrical energy into heat. The resistance of a resistive load is constant, so the current drawn by a resistive load will be directly proportional to the voltage applied to it.

An inductive load is a load that contains an inductor. An inductor is a coil of wire that stores energy in the form of a magnetic field. When current flows through an inductor, the magnetic field builds up. When the current stops flowing, the magnetic field collapses, creating a voltage that opposes the current flow. This voltage is called back EMF.

The back EMF in an inductor delays the current flow, so the current in an inductive load is not in phase with the voltage. This is why inductive loads have a lower power factor than resistive loads.

The power factor of a load is a measure of how efficiently the load converts electrical energy into useful work. A power factor of 1 means that all of the electrical energy is converted into useful work. A power factor of less than 1 means that some of the electrical energy is lost as heat.

Because of the back EMF, an inductive load has a lower power factor than a resistive load. This means that for a given voltage, an inductive load will draw leas current than a resistive load of the same power rating.
