Morning

Will 2M make this HYBRID mine?

kingdvd: on the average one Lcd 32inches, one fan, two low energy saving bulbs, i use 20hours, thats wht am saying, if u are using these three appliances and u are getting abt 10hrs then ur are using the wrong inverter/batteries.
trust me

I see you are not using much load; I put way more load on my set up and I usually turn off (at will) after 10 hours because I do not want to drain the batteries below 60 - 50% at each cycle...

kingdvd, I think my inverter is doing just great! I usually switch it off on my own not because it won't go further but because I choose to. With my new addition to the battery bank, I run all loads (Tall fridge included) for more than 8 hours and switch it off at will. I haven't bought fuel or used the gen in 2 weeks and I have had light round the clock. I also use a telecom (your 'MTN base station') batteries

kingdvd: oneman et al...
i wonder why people nasty experiences with Inverters.
with a runtime of 8hours is ridiculous, to people who have no knowledge of inverters they feel happy wt 8hours.
for me i use 0.8 va Luminous Inverter with one 200ah luminous battery and i can boast of 20hour nonstop runtime wen fully charged. (that is 5 hours runtime daily for four days without PHCN/Gen).
i advice you get a luminous or good inverter and MTN base station batteries and you will experience uninterrupted power supply.
any inverter set up below 15hours is poor! (but dont overload sha) switch off lights/equipment u dont use etc just follow a goo battery management plan.

Am sure it's been attempted; is it advisable to connect an external battery charger to the output power from an inverter to use in recharging the batteries being used by the inverter Who has tried this?? Possible?? Efficient??

omotoda: I use my 2.4kva,24volts mercury inverter with just my fridge and freezer alone.I have only 2 12V,200ah battery connected to it.the combined power rating of both the fridge and freezer is about 440watts and I run the inverter for about 10 hours before turning it off on my own.I think your batteries are not that good.Load could be a factor too but considering that u hv a total of 24x380ah that is huge power man.check ur batteries if it charges in just 6 houts then its either not charging well or sulphonation has occured to them.

I use same 2.4kva but I think the inverter doesn't charge the batteries full, will get an external charger as femiolorun suggested.
I usually do turn the inverter off on my own after 8-10hrs or 4-5hrs when the fridge is on.

Omotoda, please can you let me know the size of your battery bank, I use the same product and yes it powers my fridge and other appliances very fine but the run time is not long when the fridge is turned on (when I was on only 2 batteries before )

omotoda: If you have a point to explain I think you should just educate us.DoI have to go buy a mercury inverter 1200watts just to understand ur point?

And mercury has a 2.4kva(1440watts) inverter which I use to power my fridge and freezer at the same time.

My alternative power system will be 2 weeks old in 3 days, yay!!!
I started out with a 2.4KVa inverter, 2 pieces 12V 190AH Powersafe batteries which I doubled to 4 pieces 12V 190AH Powersafe batteries in just one week. I was getting 8 - 10 hours run time (I turn off when I notice battery level is 50% or less and I only run light points, 32 LED TV, 1 Fan, 2 90watt Computers/Laptop, Phones) and about 4 - 5 hours when the refrigerator (Tall LG Fridge) is turned on which is why I increased my battery bank. However I noticed my inverter doesn't really charge my batteries full... Once the inverter is on PHCN/Gen it quickly indicates the batteries are fully charged, but I do ignore this and try to charge for atleast 6 hours on the grid or using Generator but as soon as power is gone and the inverter is deployed the battery level jumps down to less than 100% (Say 75 - 85%), am considering getting an external smart charger, or an Inverter upgrade?? What do you all think?? When am rich enough sometime within the next few to several weeks, I intend to employ solar panels into my system and never burn fuel again!

Contact me for supplies of 12V 190AH Powersafe telecomm batteries (I think they are great, and the manufacturers stamps a 20 year lifespan on them): +234 817 579 8778

Please help me get the Navigation Code and the Radio Code for a 2007 Hybrid Honda Accord.

Best form to travel is by study man! If you have the money to pay for tuition, it is very easy!

@mrpataki

Do you think one can hustle and make money while in the USA or the Neitherlands having only a student Visa

@awoof
Tell me more about East Timor, I need to get out of Naija to anywhere I could start a life, get education and make some money to come back and invest in Nigeria, This is my fervent dream!!!

Hey Guys,
I have a one or two idea about getting to Cape Verde, My Elder Bros been there,
The best and easiest way to go is through Senegal and you can easily enter portugal from cape verde. Life there is sweet and there are lots of Nigerian there but you have to work hard. Indigenes are somewhat lazy gives foreigners adventage to work and make lots of money while there. If you need more info, I will be able to direct you to my brother,

This may sound like kinda an appeal to you guys in Australia,
I need to come to Australia but I need someone to invite me, Any help I can get from you guys
