there's no scam here it's a case of not being reliably informed about actual rating capacity and overloading, pointstores learn from this and nexte take out time and educate people like this about capacity and loading no matter how they'll insist, I've known you for years on nairaland and you're one of the guys I'll vouch for here on nairaland

Lovelynife:
in the main time,try and always convert ur mah to Ah for better knowledge and explanation for we the newbies to avoid the brouhaha. keep the good work

Valto:
not exactly, but if u intend to run 1000w load frequently, u should be going for 2.5 or 3kva inverter.. as it is not advisable to run inverter at almost full capacity all the time.

Allem:
I see no defrauding here, all I see is so most expectations from a small unit. Pipo who enjoy solar/inverter invest way more than this, or use the minimum laod to enjoy there set up. Banc in the days, ceejay use 40ah take dey pepper e nebor dem, all way management

naijasensei:
I saw where you asked him those questions, and his response. I am guessing he did not really understand your reason for asking. Another thing people don't understand is that when some appliances start up (things that are inductive or capacitive; freezers, pumping machines, blenders, fans, etc) they consume more than their rated power. The power ratings are actually a rough guide, an estimate. Just take this incident as a learning experience.

Penuelseun:
Nice points, to add to what you wrote, I think pointstores should tell his customers his battery ratings in volts and ah so as not to cause misunderstanding. Even I tell my customers not to put a load of more than 200w on a 200ah 12v battery so as to prolong it's life. @op, if you want to power a 300w load with an inverter, you must be willing to spend upwards of 170k for a 1kva system for just the inverter and battery. Pls make due diligence in the future

naijasensei:
Hi, may I make a little suggestion to you? Before collecting money, try as much as possible to inform your customers that an inverter system can never run at full load. This is very important because you are building the system for them. Tell them to tell you exactly what their load profile is, without this it would be dangerous to proceed with such a transaction. From the comments, you can clearly see people don't understand this concept. It is a little known fact that operating an inverter close to 100% load is detrimental to its batteries. Your customer was simply misinformed.

Summary, tldr; painstakingly explain everything before collecting money from the client.

cchub:
Then, you should have come here to defend yourself earlier. Bros, communication is paramount in this type of business.

If you've done a little explaining earlier, we wouldn't be here.

I wish you better sales and may God be with you.

Ciao.

pointstores:
Otunba Black thank You sir for ur advise immediately U spoke i had peace


God will bless You

You will be a good judge admire ur sense of judgement

Cheers have a great week

OtunbaBlack:
pointstores I understand your anger but then when you knew you could sell the system and offer a refund you should have given him a refund date rather than push it down is throat... its clearly a miscommunication please do the needful and refund him. this a huge dent on your reputation and bad that he had to call you out on Nairaland for you to decide to give him back is money...
