Just received word that a connection lost their home on Sunday due to Solar/Inverter/Battery system fire.

Are there any IP65 rated batteries and Inverters? If i jump into solar because AEDC are more useless than two follicles of hair, I really do not want it in my house anymore.

IP65 rating will help with outdoor placement

Most things in that quote are too Cost-excessive!
Infact. the Installer wants to build House from your Job.
Imagine, #16,000 Clamp (#200 each!) to tie down just Six Panels?
Run!

That Amount should conveniently get you a 5KVA setup, with 8KVA - 9KVA LiP04 Battery

Depending on your Budget, buy Growatt Inverter (it does not need an External Charge Controller because it is Hybrid), read all the complaints about Felicity in the last 30pages behind though, some will still advice you to buy it, if that is what they have in Stock to sell but the eventuak decision is your own.


If you need an Installer that is reasonable, leave a message for me and l will share his Number, he just did work for me.

fuckboys:
what do you think is the way forward?

fuckboys:
yes i know. I need guidance now. The replacement fans can't handle this job.

I've coupled everything back with the old fan pending new ideas.

onostech:
No, I am not in Lagos

fuckboys:
No, what the governor does is increases voltage to the fan from 1-12v and at constant current of 1a depending on the ambient temperature.


I’m 100% certain it’s going to work.

Yes there’s yellow wire a tach sensor, this actually sends signals to the inverter to shut down in case of fan failure

Yes there’s a blue speed control wire, now this wire doesn’t matter anymore if the power to the fan isn’t controlled by the inverter anymore. This wire will remain and tell the inverter to send full 12v (highest speed) to the fan which the inverter can’t do anymore cos it doesn’t control power to the fan.

Now this is where the governor comes, anything with motor actuality increases or decreases speed depending on the speed of current passing through it which is voltage. The governor increases voltage to the fan when the temperature rises.

fuckboys:
putting expensive brushless fans that would still run 24/7 on high speed.

This is actually the best cos it controls the speed using ambient temperature, lowers the fan noise and will also prolong the fans life cos it won’t be running at full speed all the time anymore.

fuckboys:
I have made my research and you're wrong chief.

I'm not disconnecting the fan totally, I'll only run the power line of the fan through the governor. The fan has 4 wires. The sensor and signal wire are still connected to the inverter

So if it can only lower the speed of the fan at night, I'm okay cos night is my only issue.

fuckboys:
I won’t be going to arena anymore, I think I will diy with this. This is the best solution imo. Ordered 2 already

Dam5reey:
Who I be to Judge, the batteries get SON logo on them

Dam5reey:
One werey just dey talk to himself

FYI tested results down here..

295AH was the result.. 7.5kwh
Cells were 280AH upgraded by software to 350AH...

I will post official Video on all my channel.. stay tuned!

Na why I look away from the Group most times.

You never post all the Jamb questions and recommendations and the free consultation and professional advice I spent time explaining.

You seek free advice, I sent you original pictures and specifications, you took the picture and started looking for where its cheaper.

And used to Payment on delivery as excuse, we understand tone and genuine buyers during conversations and can distinguish between rippers..

You bought from those who has no technical knowledge to offer, you actually got what you paid for.

In the end community will assist you anyways. You were not my client so move on abeg.

Good morning Gentlemen (I even wonder why we dont have more Ladies contributing here?)

Thank you to all wey give me ideas with my own Solar issue, it is partially being resolved but not fully sha.

But l have decided to help a friend, and bring his matter here, as a show of gratitude for the helep l don get here.
We want to install Small Solar System for im House, on the Roof of a One Storey Building.

We have identified good Stores where/from whom to buy the 4Units of 715W Panels, Inverter and Good Lithium Batteries.
No purchases yet, though.

Wetin l dey seek here, is a TRUSTWORTHY Installer who can do Roof install without damaging the Roofing and causing leaks because his Landlord will be very annoyed, if he causes a leak on the Aluminum Roof.

If you are good with Roof Installs and are Trustworthy (very important), please leave indicate here and l will hook you Up.

Good morning.

All Services are to be Paid for, dis one no be "Niaraland Helep" thing.

What ever you choose, Do inverter way get service center boss..I know haisic get, but don't know if powmr get sah

Don't buy transformerless inverter

Their MOSFETs blow easily after a while.

Visit any electrician/radionic shop where they repair inverters, you will see mountain of dead sachet inverters there.

Some don't last 6 months before they blow and they're over-rated too.

2,000W written on it but if you put 1,000w load continually, MOSFETs will blow.

I would rather buy tokunbo blue gate ups in good condition than buy sachet inverter again

No bro, not everyone is like you or him in that aspect.

Not at all. A thief is a thief to a person who is not a thief. But a thief is a brother to another thief.

Sorry if what I'm about to ask you is unprofessional but please can you help me list the specific items to get and how to connect them?

Hello Guys,

Starting a Frozen Food Business and I will like to ask for advice if a solar setup can effectively power 2 freezers and a Chiller?

Also, I will appreciate suggestions on solid installers in Lagos
