harbayyoungesth: I want to know if anyone has bought batteries from him and how long have they been using it for? Well,I bought my first LFP battery from Valto.A 48v 2.5kw and even though I use it occasionally for my fridge and freezers it works well so far.I think it's over a year now.In fact ,I am already negotiating on getting a second one of similar capacity but pricing is still an issue ;DThere is no doubt on his ability to deliver.The only snag is that his batteries are a bit pricey but I believe he is coming down on his prices of recent. Like most LFP sellers/builders you get a better bargain if you are going for the higher capacity though. |

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a 20kva affordable,durable and reliable stabilizer?I need to upgrade my Century 10kva to a 20kva or 15kva ( preferably 20kva) with operating voltage range of 95v-260v |

FEGEITOK: I chatted with the QASA official WhatsApp line.
It has been days with no response.
Did you buy directly or from Jumia?
HeavenlyBang Bought from normal market seller.The products are readily available around |

Unfaized: Wow. On Jumia the 5kva type is from 150 and above. Duravolt is made by Qasa ( former Qlink)..Visit their website, they have list of distributors at various location |
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by omotoda(m): 11:10am On Nov 12, 2025 |
Unfaized: At that price it must be used I guess. I use a 5kva stabilizer to power my full house.
If your load is much avoid using wall socket connection. Get an electrician to design a circuit with a properly sized change over and possibly a breaker ( This suggestion is from experience of having repeatedly melted wall sockets) I am not sure it's used.I bought my 5kva for 95k and review on same Jiji even has sellers posting same 10kva for 220k. |

icjunior: I intend to get a 10kva stabilizer for my house,saw 235k on jiji....anyone used the duravolt 10kva stabilizer? I use the Duravolt 5kva wall mount for my pumping machine and so far,about 5 months now no issues and my light is very low.As low as 140v at times. The most important thing is not to overload the stabilizer.I dedicated the 5kva to just pumping machine because of low voltage in my area.Once the input voltage is below 160v most stabilizers do not operate at their full power rating ,hence it is best to always factor in this.

drdru99: Hello guys
My friend's Starplus 220Ah tubular battery (2) no longer holds power beyond 24hours.... It's a bit disappointing as she expected it to last between 5 to 6 years. According to her husband, it just clocked 3years of purchase/usage and it was well maintained (distilled water, clean surface, well airated Environment)
They are currently making use a smarten bravo 2000v/24v inverter connected to the grid.
Please can anyone recommend a good tubular battery (asides the expensive luminous brand)
I have scrolled through the net but there are so many new products out there..it's a bit confusing to say the least....Thanks in anticipation There is no reason to still use tubular in 2025 please.The least price for a reliable tubular is between 260k and 300k.Price of two comes to between 520k and 600k. With 800k-850k you can get 24v 7kw LFP either from market or source from assemblers here.My candid advice.And if you want to stick to budget go for lower 24v LFP capacity like 5kw or 3.6kw |

I feel like it goes to sleep and doesn't realize that the shade is no more, and it has full sunlight on it unless there is manual intervention, which is very annoying Both mine are aluminium and they have been worknng with no issues |

favouredbymercy: Good day senior men
Please does anyone here know about this stabilizer? Can it power a 1hp submersible pump?
Thanks for your reply. Yes.It will.power it.I use this exactly for my 1ho submersible and have no.issues.Mu light is always around 170v and once I pp it shows percentage load as 40% while it boots normally to 220 v without any stress |

samistry: Hello, is anyone familiar with this product? A friend bought this inverter few months ago. It recently started beeping this rainy season,refuses to turn off when one presses the power button. The installer told him it was poor product, the shop told him the installer is lying. Euronet office is somewhere in Opebi.Google the address. They should be able to fix it |

adrusa: I don't see any technical reason why you can not connect batteries with same chemistry and similar voltages in parallel. When batteries are conncetd in parallel, they act as individual batteries merely taking and contributing to the pool based on their internal resistance which depends on capacity and voltage. During charging, they take what they need and stop taking once they are full. During discharging, they give whatever they have until their voltages get to that of thers in the parrallel configuration. It is the same behaviour whether there is a BMS or not.
However, manufacturers sometimes give specific instructions about their products, not for technical reasons, but for warranty purposes. It gives them the opportunity to dodge warranty claims if they can prove that your usage was "out of specification". It also helps them simplify troubleshooting when their is a problem.
By the way, I currently run four LFP batteries in parrallel. Two have JK-BMS, one has an ANT BMS and the last has a JBD BMS. They have been running in harmony for years now with no problem. I'm able to monitor the performance of each of them through their smart BMSes. Thank you |

Hi guys, does anyone know why some manufacturers say you can't parallel their LFP. My thinking was one should be able to parallel LFP since they have separate BMS .Just asking for knowledge sake |

Royle2014: So guys. I've had a 5kva Yohako non hybrid inverter i bought back then for an installation but i never used. Now i have a 10kwh lithium battery and i want to install it. However, an engineer told me that i need to get a smart hybrid inverter because installing my non hybrid yohako inverter would ruin my lithium battery because it's not smart and wont be able to set cut off voltage etc... He's suggesting that he can help me sell off my 5kva 48v Yohako, I'll add like 100k (amount to buy a stand alone charge controller) and he'll get me a smart inverter of 3.5kva or 4.3kva for 350k....so he plans on selling a 5kva brand new Yohako for 250k. The whole thing sounds fishy to me....is he telling the truth or can i go ahead and use the Yohako 5kva with the 10kwh lithium i have?. I already have 4 590watts panels, all i need to do is to order a charge controller and do the install. I dont plan to charge with grid fyi.... Strictly solar charging Like either @dollarnaira or fuckboys will say,na who get sense they use solar.Your 5kva 48v Yohako inverter have editable charge settings.You can post the pics here let's see. If you have free money you can let him buy it off oi,but you can use your inverter with the Lithium battery.I use my Luminous inverter with my Lifeoi4 battery,I just selected SMF as charging option..Never had any issues so far. Like I said,hybrid smart inverter is preferred,but if you have a 5kva Yohako,I know it has editable voltage setting |

Jbond: Bro like seriously? After i took my time to explain my valid reasons you went ahead and kept hammering on running away with money, like did i ever mention anyone will run away with anybody's money? My points were i am not a fan of buying stuffs online, and also want something that whoever i am buying from can easily come around incase of anything, abi na who dey kaduna and delta wan come abuja if anything happen?Anyway thank you for your input. Sorry if it sounds that way,just trying to help and point you in directions that can be helpful. Please do what's best for you.Cheers! |

Jbond: Bro, i am not in lagos, i reside in Abuja, and i am not a fan of buying things from another state to be sent down to Abuja, not my thing, and i am not doing the DIY ish either.
If he was here in Abuja i wont mind buying from him, i always physically go to the warehouse or shop where i want to buy to see what i am buying, and also so that incase of any issue whoever sold to me can easily come around, unlike when it is sent from another state, so thats my point bro, thanks Ok ooo but I know he won't run with your money.Valto is in Delta and a lot of people here have bought from him including myself.Mrreed is in Kaduna,I haven't bought from him but I can guarantee he will not run away with your money.These are people who have built their name on this platform overtime. |

Jbond: So when i go for 3.8kwh or the 5kwh, how many watts of solar panels will i need in total? All the 5kw 24v you will see will never be cheaper than Mrreed.If you can ,close eye and go for it since it's higher capacity,smart BMS and grade A cell.Chargkng won't be a problem because you will hardly deplete all capacity and even at 50amps charging current ,battery will be full in less than 6 hours |

There is always a first time.
It takes three weeks max.
Someone has something similar in Nigeria, try contacting Valto. Did I mention that in the 12 years I never did a single repair until 2023 when internal leakage occured and it was not cooling well.I was told it has internal leakge and was advised to change the internal piping but decided to buy a new one.It is still sitting somehwere in my house to be sold as scrap when I have the time. |

Yes , I use Luminous inverter and I have been fine all along.My Luminous charges to 28.8v v and surprisingly one day my people discharged the battery so much that it was only inverter that cut off and not the battery. I think the Luminous LVD is 21.6v (10.8v) |

Rumplesteelskin: Nice. This will definitely not be as cheap as the black one. I can see max current for charging has been increased from 75 - 100a. Of course, and based on the settings perhaps its made with better quality cells. On jiji, I see 950k while another platform shows 850k.I believe it should be around N800-850K though. |
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by omotoda(m): 3:43pm On Jun 04, 2025 |
Rumplesteelskin: Also, I spoke with one of Haisic engineers through the seller and he said they now have an upgraded version with Batt V and percentage display. Interested parties should probably be patient till that one is readily available. I think its already in the market. I saw one white type for same capacity by Haisic posted on social media space. Not sure if its same price with the black though.
