Can i parrallel a 580w with a 550w solar panel?

Check the voltage to ensure they are within the same range

Yes you can

It's not compulsory to do a party for a deceased. If you don't have money, do a 24 hour wake keeping then lay the deceased to rest immediately after the wake keeping.

No be igbo people.

If it becomes a law, nobody is above the law.You must comply with the law.

Until Tinubu become president

bassdow:
dem for just make law mandating the mortuary to report any corpse in their possion longer than 2-months, so the stateGovernment could publicly burn them to ashes. That would serve as deterrents.

Also which one be levies owed to religious bodies and communities ? Why should those who lost their relative, still spend unnecessarily again ?

Anyways na people wey dey benefit from such allowed such to start. me no get strength for nonsense at all. if I do, and you say you no like am, shebi na deadBody, I go shift make you do as you please

Some of this stuff is more traditional.
You see that 2months idea Na their problem go come from.

Igbo people staying abroad that wants to witness the burial nko?
They will leave work because soludo gave them 2 months

Like I said the fine is something an average Anambra person is willing to pay to break the law

Besides how does soludo enforce his law, when. The families can connive with the law enforcement and bribe them.

Police go dey avoid to enforce this law.

It's very complex. Na soludo go come enforce am himself

Besides this law is coming from a state where the people will be willing to break the law and pay the fine.

Is this what soludo ought to be thinking about.

Odogwu abulor guy name

Funniest thing is I don't understand shit after I carefully read this stuff.

Aside for blocking road and public display of casket, I no understand anything.

Besides the 2months duration of mortuary is not feasible.
Like them get money Naim dey plan keep the corpse long?

Anyway Na interstate mortuary go gain am

Nteogwuija:
Pls, who can recommend a reliable brand for a 220 or 230ah tubular battery? There are so many flying around these days. Thanks for your suggestions in advance.

I think for tubular is difficult to recommend a good brand.

Because new make find it way to our market.

Just make sure you sufficiently charge them.

Something like this

The first picture is a RCBO right

This one testimony are coming from yohako users .

earthrealm:
i really really dont understand your logic.....
innovation is the lifeblood of the world
as per inverter&batteries india is like nokia, .... they refused to evolve and switch to android, but choose to stick to the old symbian OS......and the world left them behind...

indian inverter and battery makers are still stuck in the past, they have refused to evolve and innovate...still churning out rubbish in 2024!!!.

take luminous for instance--- the produce flooded batterys that they themselves know requires 14.7volt bulk and 13.8volt float and periodic/monthly desulphation at 15.5volt for 4hrs, yet they design/produce inverters that output only 14.4volt bulk and 13.5volt float, has no periodic equalization function whatsoever....they also use a useless fixed LVD of 10.5v which at that voltage the battery is irreversibly damaged as well
whats really is their aim for this bad/destructive design philosophy??, which they have stubbornly refused to change/upgrade for more than 15yrs now, ....na only them sabi

..i call this stone age design or design to fail. same people u are prasing & defending

anybody still buying any luminous inverter and their likes in this day and age is largely ignorant or not well informed

Omo Na really finishing

At least one point Is clear, there is no hybrid inverter with lithium profile coming from India.

Am speaking in respect to Nigerian market.

My point is this countries are operating on certain government regulations(am very sure why India is not producing lithium stuffs, it's due to environmental hazard).

You see that flooded batteries, luminous are not the only ones guilty many big name are on that table.

For the LVD Na true , then no go sell market if they do it at 11v😆, besides users will complain that the battery goes off too early.

I have met a clients that asked me to adjust the low battery. (Some inverters has option for you to choose the LVD)

earthrealm:
very very funny.
what manner of logic/reasoning is this?

Observe Nigerian market.
I will love it if any one can point out an Indian lithium battery and inverter.

Besides, the aim was to control waste dumping

earthrealm:
you have a point,
however i have seen several dumb yphako inverters/charge controllers.
foolish inverters without editable charge voltage settings and proper smart battery type switch useless or non existent LVD & HVD settings......... in this day and age, how can a company make such products?. luminous and mecury are also fond of this poor design philosophy issh

i also saw a yohako charge controller, same issue-- it just has low and high for battery type, ,
until they wake up and start producing smart user friendly products...i will continue rating them low..

Any company still making products with such poor designs is not serious...
Luminous, mecury, yohako, etc are on this table

Indians likes working with products that are reusable or recyclable. This is a major reason you don't have Indians lithium batteries and inverters.

Chinese Na all manner as long as it brings Money.

This is a pattern in renewable energy sector just observe it

brightk:
u have com again

adibo:
Thanks for your reply. So, I can go for the Yohako? How about Mercury hybrid inverter, does it have a specific problem?

I have not used mercury for any installation before.

I have used yohako and felicity.

Any of them is okay.
Felicity has a transformer based hybrid, yohako has the same.

Felicity has a chopper transformer hybrid so as yohako.

Felicity only has a service centre outlet in Lagos, I don't think yohako has.

Na the difference be this (felicity has better customer service that's all)

earthrealm:
yohako isnt among the good inverters...also mecury.

why not get growatt or felicity hybrids...or even powmr or sorotec. those hv a decent track record

What criteria do we use to define a good inverter and cc?


Both yohako and felicity are both Chinese.
Felicity is beating yohako in terms of packaging and organisations.

Na the same people.
I don't see any difference between this two products.

Nobody dey talk about him friend

I don't know How to continue the his logbook
But let's start it anyhow .

So after we installed the solar panels, it took us about 2 days to prepare battery for the job.

The First, we used it to pick up the cells, and strategize how we are going to package it.

Second day(on Friday), we started the fabrication of the housing for the battery.
We choose to use would because it is what we can easily access and work with.

We brought out the cells(3.2v 100ah lifepo4) connected it and strapped then together.
There are a lot of stories to say but I will allow images to do the remaining.

And yes, it was a woman that fabricated the casing.

I was in shock the way she was reading the inches scale on the measurements tape .

My sense was like how come you don't know how to measure inches

I got in with my journeyman and we started preparing the mounting rack ( we used interlock aluminium profile for this job, from experience I think they have better stability when trying to nail them into the roof)

We did some calculations to manage material my oga you dey owe me . So we ended up using 3pcs of aluminium profile to mount 8pcs of the 550w solar panel.

Preparing the railing was not the problem self, pulling the panels up the roof was too stress full (all my body done break forget I said I was made for this 😭😭).

There where some many challenges with the ridge board has broken and some of the wood.

So we had to swap position (who dem dey lead sometimes no know Wetin leader they see) with me myself taking the most risky position on the roof.
We dont have pictures of the process just minor clips here and there.

But am grateful, am able to come back to this thread to document it
.
Shout out to all the key people involved in the project.

Hopefully, we I will be sharing update on battery and inverter system.
We are having some down time procuring the batteries

Thank you for reading 🙏🙏

Yesterday was the D day, I had to get a journeyman for the job, someone who is bold and courageous enough to climb up 45ft using a 15ft × 3 extension ladders.

I must say, you don't want to try this at home . Because we are made for This .
Ladder was set we used a shelf to support the rear of the ladder 🪜 to prevent sagging (yes I studied marine engineering).

As team leader, I went in for the first climb to test the stability and ensure firmness (no be me go kill person pikin) after. Some few steps, we decided to wire band the top of the ladder to the balcony of the last floor.

Every thing is set and good, then the Earthing and arrestor guy just came and started their job.

akinwale701:
Sure thing! Thanks a lot. Please how do I introduce myself to him or what do I tell him and is this his calling or WhatsApp number?

This is his WhatsApp contact.
Just tell him his coursemate sent you his no. ( I already told him I sent his contact to someone)

So I believe he is expectant...

Goodluck boss

akinwale701:
Thanks for your input. I'll look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you.

This is his contact oh lie oh seven oh five seven oh Tu Tu fur.

I hope you are able to decide it .
Goodluck bro

rapcy:
Carry go bro, abeg explain the part of connection from the inverter to the knife switch then to the DB, which wire dey go where and where. I no too understand that part

No problem.
I will try my best to explain while one the job.

I don't plan uploading/sharing videos, but if it warrant it, I will but seldomly

Obnoxious2001:
So on This same day, duty call started as usual around 10am.
The job site location was leventies by garage in Warri Delta State.

8pcs of 550w Jinko solar panels to be installed for a betting shop.
After getting to the site, we started to source our mounting accessories.

Initially, we agreed on using a scaffold to run the installation, but when the bills came in mehn local man and SNR man had to sit down and have a rethink.

I will post the outcome tomorrow.
But for today, have a glimpse of today's job.

I must confess mehn carrying 550w of this solar panel is very heavy.
I will try to do justice to ascertain how much it weighs tomorrow, because we have to safely move this gadgets upto 2 storey building using a ladder 🪜🪜.
Am very sure you don't want to miss that
aspect of this story.

I will use this night to fast,hopefully it shall not be our last. But in all, we shall prevail. .

After the bustle and planning, my chairman at @brightk said let go and eat with igbe (sacrifice in Urhobo) plate in one corner.
Shout out to the people whey dey call us come chop🙌🙌🙌

This is just a simple logbook kind of post. The aim is actually to help me keep stock of solar gig, installation and problems that am able to attend to.

I will as much as possible try to be very honest. though my methods might be questionable, but yeah am open to critism.

By the way I was thinking, is this thread category not supposed to fall under dairy

The guy dey ment?

No na

twinskenny:
Panels are 200watts

Go up your roof and inspect your panels, chances are some of your diode might have blown out.


You can't easily troubleshoot this on ground.
Try reading the Voc of the panel.
What make of Mppt is it

akinwale701:
You really make sense sir. Please do you have any idea on how I get to learn videography? I'm really interested in it.

I have a coursemate that does video graphy that year I can reach him out.

But assuming you can't get anyone to teach you, you can meet anyone that does photoshoot and ask them to refer someone to you, then you get a Udemy course that teaches videography to follow up.

That way you can have resources to experiment on what you learnt.

I will get back to you anyway

twinskenny:
One of my client is having an issue with his setup:

1.5kva inverter
1 230A Tubular battery
4 solar panels
And 30A charge controller mppt


Now the system charge well and work for a week but after one week the system will switch off !! There is no much load on just a cctv camera setup!

Please what could be the problem !?

How many watt solar panels
