Yes, my location is Lagos.

Kindly assist with the contact.

Many thanks.

They are all lead acid... Its better u buy all your material yourself and call dem to come and Install.. none of them will give you lithium phosphate batteries quotation for 1.1m meanwhile you can have it all setup for that range. Buy your own material. If you're in Lagos. I can give you contact of where you will buy all except lifepo4 battery.. u can get those from valto.

BMS. Battery Management System. Used to monitor and charge LifeP04 cells. 7S to 16s means it can do 7 cells in series upto 16 cells. 300A is the capacity of the BMS to charge and discharge current from the cells.

I'll advice u go with separate system rather than hybrid. ie CC n inverter not integrated together.
For a 24v 2.5kva setup
Inverter 2.5kva 60-80k..
Not sure valto still has instock
Transformersless inverter are are cheaper
Charge controller powmr or techfine (60a) - 85k
Panels - 300w -75k (4) - 300k
Battery 8(100/120a lifepo4) - 400k
BMS -JK 8s 80a - 32k (from AliExpress)
Other parts needed for the battery assembly - 8k
Instead of those quanta batteries
AC SPD- 8k
DC SPD - 10k
3 DC MCB (16a, 63a, 80a) - 12k
1 AC MCB (10a) - 3k
DC cable for panels 6mm -1k/yard(u might need up15yards) - 15k
10mm cables for inside components connectivity (3) 1.5k/yd - 4.5k
Earthing cables for panels (single copper core) - 450/yard (10-15yards- 7k max
Earth road 8ft or 2 4ft n joiner - 12k
Incase u no get am b4
DB (9) - 4k
Change ova - 3k
Mountain rack for ur panels with screwset - 10k
I might av left few things out which people here will add.
This adds up to roughly 1m

Very detailed

Anyone planning to buy Canadian solar in Alaba or Arena oshodi should think twice.

I saw Alaba sellers removing original manufacturer stickers on solar panels and putting their Canadian solar stickers.

The fruad going on in this country is too much, it's better you buy something with original sticker than buy fake Canadian solar panel at exorbitant price.

lolz, before nko grin. all fake low quality new and tokunbo panels are pasted Canadian solar stickers, infact 90% of panels sold in the market are all false quoted capacity. for lithium batteries, that one worse pass. they are coupling 9kwh used grade b cells and selling it as 48v 300ah(15kwh), selling 7kwh as 10kwh. non is ever real capacity. it is well with Nigeria.

I wonder what the standard organisation of Nigeria is doing about this. Nigeria has become a dumping ground for shitty items.

Na that battery worse pass. If you then insist on original battery they will bring fake of another colour for you as the original.

If there are reputable companies that deal with solar you can just go there not minding the price.

I stopped buying electronics from Igbo shops since the day they sold a brand new generator to me and I had to change the carburettor, starter, spark plug, capacitor and every other component within a week.

I bought another generator from Termocool office since February and it has not developed a single family since then.

So go to companies, avoid Igbo shops, it's an avenue for everything fake.

This has been a recurring theme on this thread which is why we try to create a list of authorized dealers, resellers and reputable marketers for newbies and others who wish to make purchases to connect with. We have already published the names and contact details for authorized dealers of solar panels, lead acid batteries, LifeP04 cells and inverters on this thread some pages back. Gennex Technologies is an authorized reseller of Canadian Solar panels and its details have been posted here before. Any one going to Alaba or other markets to purchase inverter products must do so with his eyes wide open. Caveat Emptor.

This is the reason why when I want to make a purchase I first decide on what to buy and then research who has a right to sell that item, and then only buy from such a person, unless any other seller can provide acceptable proof of chain of custody.

By doing such research I was able to buy electronic equipment at prices well below those advertised generally at my location while at the same time purchasing them from source. This has happened to me with not just my inverter experience which I narrated a while ago but most recently with TVs.

Summary, it pays to do your due diligence.

You know how hard money is to come by, ensure that anyone who wants you to part with your money is prequalified by successfully scaling a series of hoops before you ever release funds.

Do you know anywhere in Lagos I can get good solar panels? I have 1200 watt that doesn't give more than 40amps during the day, I wanna try change the location, if it doesn't work fine I might need to replace everything.

i belive schneider electric sell.

they have several partners, but i know of one in amuwo odofin

bolamark. from my interactions with them, they seem to be on the straight and narrow.

i had the exact same experience with them with socket outlets. they sold original socket outlets at around 75% of the price all these people selling unnamed\unknown outlets were selling them

as always, do your due diligence though. this country is a jungle.

the logic is MONEY - quick money and obscene profits

and it is everywhere.

once i got in to trouble because on a project, i designed for 120mm cable. we completed and the cable was heating up. it made no sense as i had specified the cable one size above the expected load.

eventually we replaced the cable, and the person replacing showed me the cable was actually 70mm. the label had been scraped off and restamped with 120mm.

in the same alaba, they have cable sheathing machines, and they will join cables and then sheath them. and sel as brand new, unbroken.

if you have no way /tool/methodology of identifying a brand new/original, you are OYO.

Wow, I just bought electrical materials over 450k from there yesterday.
1.5mm to 16mm for house rewiring. I hope say I never enter one chance like this.
It was in front of the shop I saw the solar fruad.

To make the best use of my 2 No 1.5kva hybrid inverters what parameters should I consider when picking an MPPT.

Is there an MPPT that can charge the two sets of batteries at the same time?

I would appreciate recommendations from the house.

How many solar panels would go with the MPPT?

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean by two sets of batteries ? Are you talking about charging a 12v battery set and a 24v battery set at the same time from the same solar charge controller or two sets of 24v batteries (same brand and capacity) both charging from the same charge controller ?

I need solar power system that can power laptops, some lights, and charge phones basically. Something that can also be charged with grid power or generator.
As a remote worker/freelancer, my business is at stake, as EKEDC has finally decided to be unfortunate! The cost of running generator is not also friendly at all.

Please suggest products for the total package, and the prices.

Alaba methodology.

I fell for that scam but thank God that the 4 fake Canadian panel 350w I bought is producing about 290w each so I couldn't be bother transporting them back to Lagos . Next time I can only buy direct from dealers Yingli , Era or JA and Jinko.

Trusted seller : https://www.techlandsolar.ng/jinkosolarpanel.php or Yingli .

I hate being scammed by all these trades
