My bad. Have a great life.

ojeysky:
Which one is that?

This is the one.

iKingsley:
how are you even sure you will get it after then? And to wait for a very long time only to be requesting for refund will be so devastating

I've done this more than 600 times. We know how it works. Requesting for refund after product get not delivered ain't new. I'll recommend if you are new not to order this time.

I have changed inverters and batteries again. Enjoy

What's the issue with the Victron inverter? Thought they are the coveted crème de la crème of inverters. I like your system. I'm a huge fan of Schneider products. Your pumping machine is not a power guzzler for it to be on and you are still not hitting 1kw in consumption. The WECO battery looks portable just like the Powerwall. I see the sellers also partners with Relion lithium batteries. Relion is an ok battery, saw some comparison videos of it with Battleborn. Even though Battleborn won, Relion came a close second. Well done, your system is awesome.

Dudeonyx:
plus a BMS @ ₦25k

Which BMS will you get? Is it Daly or the type with BT so one can know what's happening to the cells?

Heard Daly now has BT type, got a quote for one with such feature and pretty high capacity of up to 250A. Appears new, no review yet. Ain't gonna be the lab rat to test that one out. I'll get another well tested type

iKingsley:
what if the lockdown continues?

Youk now, this is a bush and post offices are on lockdown during this time which is very weird.

Whenever it ends I get my goods. Not for first timer's though. As first experience should be pleasant.

akashi01:
Strong man. Well, it's better it being in Naija waiting for clearance sef.

Oh yeah. We still got weeks before it gets here.

iKingsley:
I mean those items on Aliexpress with extremely low price have costly shipping price

The Chinese are business savvy lots. They know how to make their money

Just made another order today. _{Disclaimer: do not try this at home}

iKingsley:
some somet, they include the money in shipping price?

I don't understand your question.

jboixxx:
Those offers are sca_ms; I don't fall for them.

The offers may not be scam. But AE sabi how to bait people to make them click. That ₦206 for that sneakers fit be the cost of the lace. You may see phone tagged ₦500. That may be the cost of the screen protector. When you click on it you will see ₦500- ₦65,000

₦500 is the screen protector and ₦65,000 the cost of the phone. They do this to ensure their ad pop up whatever amount you use to filter out contents

It's annoying when you put ₦30,000 and use it to filter out phones and iPhone 11 Pro Max pops up. The 30k may be the cost of the phone's casing

Zero looks good

News really travels slowly here.

Trump is annoyed.

Trump needs to place the blame on China.

China in a way deserved it. They lied to WHO. They lied to the whole world. They simply do not want the adverse effect telling the truth will have on their economy. Imagine the whole world closing their borders to China. So China lied. The result is what we see.

Though a lot of people believe Trump got the info earlier and decided to downplay it- you know elections gotta be won.

So, here we are wearing masks, been afraid of a slight cough and social distancing while hunger is dealing with many of the populace.

As it is, someone must pay the price, and to Trump the WHO looks good. After all they told the world there is no risk of human to human interaction.

I read the whole article and I'm as confused as I am in the beginning. Many unanswered questions. Why did the military kill these people? Where are the military from? Why is nobody asking for justice here? If the people are not military, what are the military doing about it? Why is this report incomplete?

ceaser:
Can two units of this 12v pack be connected in series to achieve 24v to run a 24v inverter system?

I think you can do that if you buy a 24v BMS or an 8s BMS and disconnect the BMS that came with the pack, you can then connect all the 8 cells in series. Just trying to help. The OP the ball dey your court

earthrealm:
is that not snake oil?
like the ads i see, where they say people should buy a small gadget , which will enable them run 2hp sumo pumps and steam iron on i pass my nebo gens

Similar to people who built the perpetual motion machine that produces "free energy" but the "big oil conglomerates" are out to make sure their invention never sees the light of day

kponkedenge:
it was just like a textbook comment I see here on nairaland all the time. I have no doubt that his son is a nairalander.

I thought the same thing too. I couldn't believe how similar his comments are when compared to comments bothering on politics in NL

Scammers always looking for that opportunity to scam.

Funny, just made some orders today. I believe we should be out of quarantine by then. Anyways, even if we ain't, goods can always be sent back and money refunded

n9jaboy:
Good morning,

Please I just bought 2No 150ah inverter batteries (auction).

essegis:
He actually has a 4.8kwh set up viz 200ah*24v.
Assuming he adopts the 50% DoD rule, which of course we know as a beginner won't be adhered to let's just work it for him with it. Meaning he has to fill in 2.4kwh after every use.

Oh, thought he said two numbers of 150ah, based my reply on this. Cool

@n9jaboy this is for you. Tried to type this but the bots were angry

fogeg87963:
yeah yeah, ASA this virus ish lets go of its grip, i'll replace the inverter with a premium brand, not saying they are not susceptible
to damage too, but at least, the chances are lower given the same conditions.
the other items in the circuit are american and they handled the surge like it was nothing.
the chinese guy just went kaput

Sometimes the Chinese do try. Not all the times do they come up short in the business of quality. Eg a Chinese earbud I got sometime last year, was machine washed the other day. I had given up on it ever be ok. After sun-drying for some time it was good to go. I couldn't believe it. Lol.

Though quality is never second guessed from the Americans. Their insurance will make sure you deliver or go bankrupt

fogeg87963:
Mine is a 5kw 48v and days ago, it surged and showed me error 4 till date.
i started to think its my village people.
now there is lockdown, had to whip out a forgotten 12v inverter,
but the shit is a modified sine wave inverter and it gives me the annoying 'hummmmmmmmm' as if transformer dey inside my house.
cant run anything except light and dc fan, even sef, the changover time is worse, everywhere goes dark for like 2 secs
someone help me beg for the lockdown to be cancelled, so i can fix my lovely horsepower
have to replace the control board. i guess.

Nothing beats a portable small pure sinewave backup inverter. It comes in handy when the big guy fails, at least you won't be in darkness till the fix is gotten.

kadorzy:
Hey friends...
I have a peculiar situation at hand. My system goes into float as early as 10/11 AM these days.
I'm thinking what can I do with this excess output.?

My thoughts:
1. Extend power to my neighbour's flat
2. Fence lights
.
.
.…any other ideas is welcomed.

Gracias

Run those heavy equipment at that time: washing machine, freezers, a/c (if your system can handle that) etc during that period or get larger battery bank to keep those solar panels really busy

n9jaboy:
Good morning,

Please I just bought 2No 150ah inverter batteries (auction). I'd love to charge it on both solar and NEPA. Which should be my best bet(hybrid inverter). My expected load is five 30watts Fan.

I will also like to know how many hours my fans will work. Thanks

2nos of 150ah 12v battery in a 24v configuration has energy of 3600wh or 3.6kwh. But lead acid battery can only at best has a usable capacity of 50%, that means you have half of that 3.6kwh ie 1.8kwh.

Five fans are 30watts if we assume they run for 12 hours per day, it consumes energy of 0.36kwh or 360wh. So I think the battery size is good for such load.

Now answering your question on whether you should buy a hybrid inverter or buy a standalone inverter and solar charge controller is solely dependent on your choice. Both can work with either public power supply or solar. This choice is dependent on you. You may choose a hybrid inverter or not. Though some like to believe that hybrid inverter failure rate is higher than the standalone due to complexity in the build. These are subjective factor which I'm yet to see a published engineering journal or research backing it up.


So, whichever you decide to buy is solely dependent on you. Welcome to the club

NiyiOmoIyunade:
Yup! Thank you very much.

Madam Abigai should please keep cable lengths as short as possible and use at least the mininum spec'd cable sizes or better still go for an even thicker cable size and all should be well.

Awesome. Hehe. Happy to help. Madam Abigai, food don ready.

Abigai:
Oga Niyi pls can you show me a diagram that will further guide me. thanks

I think this is what he meant

ojeysky:
MG preceded the GK, the newer model has more features.

Oh that makes sense.
