You have more than Dust on your panels, Dust will only reduce by 10-15%..

You simply have bird poo or something similar, that's causing shade and not Dust, Shading is more worse than Dust..

This season is also different sha.. seems Dust is thicker.. grin

It's actually dust. No shading. And nothing like bird droppings on it. The dust was thick as you suspected. The place is on the side of an untarred road.

But I even believe that dust covering that is not thick will still impact much, with this my experience.

Bros, you follow us tight fisted folk dey use this el cheapo powmr cc...hahahahahahaha.
Omo that cc na small but mighty. E for close book if it has harvest logging capability. Daily cummulative.

grin

Bros, I fell in love with it o, since I realized that it's reliability at an affordable rate. I have up to 4 units Initially started with MakeSkyBlue which later became expensive - of course it logs data.

Why didn't you use water to clear the dust?

The panel were washed. You probably missed the earlier post that showed the significant improvement with the cleaning.

Good evening
Please I need help in making up my mind on which lithium battery to buy.
I'm doing an upgrade and an overhaul so I want to get it rite from the start.


1. Felicity 10kw battery
Or
2. Tactel 15kw

They are almost same in price.

Does Tactel have an office in Nigeria like felicity?

PS: which of them will work better in terms of communication with Growatt inverters

Thank you all

I think he has growatt inverter already. So if he is not open to DIY, he can go with Felicity now. I'm sure they have comms that work with growatt.

felicity might be better, but just bear in mind, it is not real capacity, more like 10kw= 6-7kw.

The Cell at the edge seems to be broken, that Panel will great affect your harvest especially if it's connected in series with some panels..

It's like having a shade on the panel.. Anyways investigate further.. Check the Voltage output on the panel..

Thanks
I’ve checked the voltage output is still thesame but the only thing I observed is that it takes more time to charge my battery unlike before. Could it be the thunder strike that caused the lines on the panel

If the drop in performance is much, those lines could be micro-cracks that are growing to macro-cracks, resulting from rough transport and storage, esp load stresses. Very often panel stacking limits are not respected, even from origins.
Voltage (Voc) test may not reveal the problem. Try a short cct current test.

I have a rockie question

When 2 inverters are connected in parallel,

Live + & Neutral - outputs from the 2 inverters are they connected together to give a single output or only the neutrals - are connected and the two live + are connected differently?

i have similar, but shorter cracks on my 10yr old panels, and also experiencing reduced harvest.

lemme know if u find a solution.

my theory is moisture is enteing the panels through those cracks and degrading it, leading to reduced harvest

True that. So the reduced output may also result from dust too, as per my own experience.
