Guys, Please what are your take on this:

So i have been following this tread for some time and from poplular recommendations to others , I was convinced and then I ordered and received a 3.2kwh battery from a buider on this forum. The delivery was fast, no delays. Although the set did not come with any accessories, no baterries cable etc . This was as stated by the builder. ....(only the battery box in a plastic build with a small bms screen and a button). All as advertised. So no issues there. This setup cost #550k (delivery inclusive). All i got in addition was the waybill receipt

The truth is, my friend who ordered for a 26.5v(100Ah) itel 2.5kwh battery, received theirs yesterday:
To my supprise, the itel battery Bank alone was 2.5 to 3 times heavier than mine, the setup was built in a solid steel housing case, has 3 internet communication ports, and 3 other advanced looking ports. Came with ALL the comm ports cables, also came with two 20 mm solid +/- battery cables , 3 year warrenty card, thick steel wall brackets, metallic wall screws, some addtional bolts and nuts and many more.
And all this cost #481k (including delivery fee).

Now I know why people crave the itel battery pack.

Although I have to say I over expected much for mine, but the person i bought mine from did not give me the kind of attention(as a first time customer as i would have wanted) the response sometimes was quite slow (had to literally push for any information with response coming anything it comes) no step by step on how to do much. I had to ask about value to set for bulk and float etc, Had to push and ask or most times google some stuff on my own. (I am not saying the seller did anything wrong o) but sincerly I dont think I may patronise the person in the future.I like my business partners to be approacheable irrespective of the value or amount involved in the trade......(my choice)

So, the itel on the other had virtually a full hands on manual that explains EVERYTHING you can do, clearly defined warranty card and many more quality of life stuffs you know.....

Although, I for one became a bit skeptical about the build i received (when i recall the itel heavy weight and quality) but everytime i checked the jk bms app, i showed all the cells adds up to 3.2kwh (see image). Even still, my mind still tells me I should have gone with the Itel due to its solid built, wall handing capability, solid customer and aftersales support, the quality of work and support it has.
(I thought going for "3.2kwh" was better than "2.5kwh" so i had to stop my initial itel order for the local build).

Its well sha


Forgive me for my long epistle...Just wanted to air my thoughts man.

Thanks Guys

Love800:
Asin the solar aspect you made mention about.
What is the relationship between the pot and solar?
Okay. I will have a solar first before getting the pot? Cant i use nepa light for it?

Love800:
Thank you.

But i want to understand something.

The pot comes with solar?

dollarnaira:
Min 0.75hp ? .
So u go install 0.75hp for a depth of 90m, chai.
Na to leave una with una reasonings oo.
You thought I would start to defend it?
Best is to keep mute and allow most of you to wallow in ignorance

Love800:
Where is it sold pls?
And how much is it?

iraybuju:
Which location is that ?

harsysky:
Have you considered the multitude of Nigerians that will be out of Job when something happen to these companies?

fuckboys:
I just no understand wetin person wey dey use 24v go dey find communication port up and down?

Dude just set your inverter LVD and HVD and rest.

adimx:
You have saved yourself the stress of unending wait on NEPA.

Ever since you upgraded to 24v, do you cook with it all round or you still use gas?

adimx:
If so, you battery never full for once oh.
Change your charging voltage to 28.8v

tziz:
Chief, nothing in this life will make me go back to Lead Acid. I'd rather buy 1.28Kwh 4th hand used Litium Iron cells than buy a brand new 230Ah Tubular Battery of the same price.

ajabani4allah:
I mean the voltage at which it stop charging, Has it ever gotten to something like 28v and above?

ajabani4allah:
At what voltage does your battery BMS cut off when fully charged? I am seeing 27.5v on your screen

oloet:
Never say never, my 4.2kw inverter's fan is not always on but when it comes on, hell will break loose

oloet:
You sure say no be 7.2kwh🤣

Bankyshinani:
What is the size of your battery bank bros?

Ghaliz:
It looks exactly like a third world downtown, terrible infrastructure, very congested, minimal rail connection , flooding, sprawling and extremely overpriced. Banana Island for the price should not feasibly exist but for the sheer volume of dirty money circulating in this country of particular concern.

Go to North Africa even East Africa and see how planned cities look like. They are third world too

Lagos has only 15 buildings 100meters and above with the tallest being only 160M so there's really no skyline to speak of

bkuranga:
This is just wrong, bro...
When you had your doubts, didn't you ask here too?

Now telling someone to stop disturbing or ask questions.
Uhnnnn?

bkuranga:
Tell me this is a joke abeg?

A lot of things are relative abi you never hear say Chicken is epensive depends on who price am.

What's noisy to you might not be to the next person. Also you both might not have installed it in samme location or have same space. I fit dey for 1 room while you dey for selfContained apartmment or flat or duplex where you have enough luxury to install far away from where you spend most time.

Once bought a phone (when I was trying to see how to break away from sonyXperia), this phone was lagging so much I couldn't use it for more than 1-day. I sold it to someone else who never had such issue. Probably because they're used to such experience whereAs I'm not. Make I no use money buy phone wey go chhange my name to Patience

Also that those inverters are mostly in same category, doesn't mean there wouldn't be subtle PROs amongst them

adimx:
That's interesting.
Which means you're off grid with your setup fully ba?

bassdow:
For the BEEP sound, use settings to disable it. It's one of the few first things I do aafter installing any such inverters.

As for the noise, some of those inverters are noisy Ooo. Add to it some houses are small, most have 6-inch walls, plus who knows, majority are in selfContain / single room hence have closer proximity to the inverters.
Another is, a lot of us don't wanna hear PIM so immagine what happens when Inverte come dey blow like 10HP Vaccum blower. Some go dey even sound like that alarm wey dey alert when NEPA bring light.

Even when sending Bulk emails, a single server sometimes doesn't make as much noise as some of these inverters. Most Oyinbo get basements but wetin we get na passage / corridor if we lucky enough. Those luckier to have secure balconies for installation no go tooo understand
