Ferdiwar: I've used Longi. The 450w version. Performance was superb and on par with Jinko. |

Ferdiwar: How does that work? |

Mavor: I'll recommend downgrading your AC to 1HP and trippling both your battery and PV capacity. Well done. |

kristien4: Improperly joined cables increases resistances and hence voltage drop, but properly joined cable has less resistance and hence negligible voltage drop. Also waterproof your joint if joint is exposed to moisture or elements. 1 Like |

easyyoke: Depends on your area, any inverter is susceptible to lightning surges that can curse temporary shut down or permanent damage. To forestall this, it is recommended to connect your system to a good electrical earth and install surge protective device. |

isangjohnson: Why buy an expensive MPPT while you can get a cheap PWM? Saves cost and gets the hack the job. |

Trippledots: That's another thing. A friend, an installer gave someone a quote for ₦2.5m for some solar solutions, the client laughed at him and said if he has ₦2.5m that he would be out of the country where there is 24/7 power. Crooked installers get the job most of the time as compromising on quality means nothing to them. Eg using a 40A PWM to run a 5kw PV set up. Lol 5 Likes 1 Share |

RickyM: As a professional Nigerian, I'll tell you one of the ways this would end if you involve the police. Once the police hear the cost of the item is N1m+, they'll ask you to bring "ordinary N200k"to enable them open "investigation" on the matter. The half-baked/crooked tech guy will be arrested and you'll be surprised to see him in his shop the next day. If you have an insider in the police you'll get to know he bailed himself with N20k If you approach the police again, they'll ask for more funds to enable them use their "tactical team" to mobilize for more investigations that they realised the tech man is not working alone. After back and forth, and more payment from you, the tech man may be persuaded to pay you some little money, say N100k as he was not solely to blame for the item not working. At the end of the day you are still at a loss. If you meet a lawyer he will ask for N50k mobilization fee to enable him start court proceedings that will ensure the tech man pays you N5m in damages. Months after spending over N600k in court appearance fees and time wasted in going to court, you may be advised to settle out of court. It's hard to get justice here. At least legally 9 Likes |

In the bid to make a quick buck, some installers end up lying and delivering substandard products to their client making many assume RE is not ok. Just here to tell any newbie that RE works when done right. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Olamak1: Never had to appeal a card. If na juju, my own dey work wella. I just buy and it goes. No appeal. I funded my bitnob on first try with $400. Used it to buy things on Alibaba and no issue. I wonder what triggers this appeal thingie. Must be absent in my account. |

Alagbarasunny: Buy as much PVs as you can without going into debt. Get a 120A charge controller for ease of future expansion. Thank you 1 Like |

Hybrid600: Get 60kw of PV and 120kwh of batteries. Then you are good to go. |

Olamak1: They are the best for now. Just made some pretty big funding with no issues with less fees. I'll be leaving Klasha as their cost is not friendly at all. |

EduTechTainMent: In some controllers, you can exceed the maximum rated wattage with no damage to the controller, but the issue is that the excess panels are just there doing no job. Eg if the maximum rated by a 60A controller @ 12v is 720w and you have 1200w PV connected to it. At most what you'll get out of it is that 720w, the remaining 480w PV is just there outside doing no work. 4 Likes |

LUKINGUY: You are better off sourcing cells and DIYing the battery side of it. You can always source inverter here. |
