I'm even skeptical it can handle 60 amps looks like 6mm2 wires

YOUR OPINION IS NEEDED PLEASE.
We're currently working on getting solar street light installations/maintenance contract from the State Government.
Two things we observed from the previous installations executed by a different company.
1. Inferior/cheap products were installed. The panels attached was not large enough to adequately charge the battery and sustain it till day break. It was even worse in the raining season/the overall weather conditions in our South South Region.
2. Lack of proper maintenance/monitoring.
We're now coming up with two proposals.
1. To install quality solar street light products with at least 2 years warranty and not all these Chinese fake products that float Nigerian markets.
2. To order for lifepo4 cells/panels/inverters and other accessories, assemble them, build sub stations in different locations and use them to power the street light at night. Everything will be taken into consideration including energy saving bulbs/the watts/the number each major street will take to be tallied up with the lifepo4 battery, inverter/panels capacity that will power them throughout the night. Daily maintenance/monitoring will be needed for this.
Please, your opinion is needed here.
Currently, the state government is powering the street lights with diesel generator which I consider to be more costly.

How do you guide against energy theft with your option 2 which is an option I am beginning to like in the light of failing street lights everywhere?

One way you can do this though is to get an inverter and bulbs that does not deliver conventional 220V, so that in the case of energy theft, it will be useless to the thief.

FEGEITOK:


What if the wires are replaced?

samir101ng:


You can check out this Hober product if it fit your needs https://hobertek.com/solar-pump-inverter/hsph3700h-3-7kw/

You might need to order online though direct or from AliExpress.

24v. Don't no where I dropped d Manual. Would av checked d datasheet.

Good morning, I would like to set up a 1.5kva off-grid solar system with the primary usage of powering my laptop:130W, Wi-Fi 18W, portable fridge 85W, 5 energy saving bulbs, ox standing fan 54W and charging my phones.

After reading through some of the pages of this thread, I was able to come up with the list below and the likely price tag:
1 unit of Felicity FL-IVPS1512 Li 1.5kva Inverter 12V pure sine wave inverter (lithium battery wake-up function) [b]120k - 148k

2 units of Jinko/ Yingli Panels: 2*450 watts: 240k[b] (Not sure you can get Jinko 450W at that price, that't price of 450W Yingli)[/b]

1 unit of 200ah Tubular Luminous battery: 170k

1 unit of Felicity Charge controller: 100k - 128k (Depending on where you buy)

1 unit of Tomzn AVR/Current limiter - 10k

1 unit of Watt Meter 15k (@zeestone99 sell this)
1 unit of Battery Rack (Max 20k)
Wires (30k - 40k)
Installation Budget (30k - 50k)
[/b]

This is 806k already, you may want to up your bedget to 850k to cater for Miscellaneous.

I need someone experienced to review my list and help me arrive at the best and complete list of all the components and materials needed for the setup. I would like to set up the system in the coming days, working with a budget of 600k.

I’ll also appreciate recommendations on where to get the original components. I’m new to Solar systems but I’m curious about it. I want to purchase the items myself if possible. I might need help with the installation.

Thanks

Jefferyzz:
would av preferred u going for lifepo4 as u will steadily break that 50% DOD on Lead acid, but [ valto no dey sell 4 pieces

TechGeek777:


Can you drop the seller details maybe I can ask him/her directly

Valto:
i can sell 4pcs of 160ah, can couple 12v 160ah lifepo4 lithium battery.

zeestone99:


We have Snadi 3.5kva wall mount. Comes with decent idle consumption, priority setting mode (battery and inverter), can set lvd(low voltage disconnect) up to 23v - 275k


Call/chat - 08117398294 to order

Bros before you confirm you're disappointment with the panel. Can you ensure

1) it's not "backing" the sun and is on an axis that harness sunrise and sunset in your location.

2) if you already have no 1 sorted. Please consider optimising the tilt angle of your panels. This often overlooked factor can mean the difference between generating 100WH and 130WH in the same position.

Try this first before concluding (this is assuming you've not tried it).

All the best my oga.

vta2008:


Before I bought mine from PRAG, I did reverse Google image search and saw that omo all of these stabilizers and most inverters dey Alibaba. They just slap their names on the product and call it a day.

Even the manuals tell everything. Very poor English as though they couldn't pay a Chinese man with proper English skills to do the translation.

Quick question: does your dunamis come with a user manual? Maybe you overloaded the stabilizer and this wahala ensued. They never disclose on the sales page but on the manual you'd see that these big stabilizers can only carry load at a certain input voltage. The lower the input voltage, the lower the amount of load you can put on the stabilizer

Thank you all for your advice. I really appreciate.

The seller definitely won't b able to answer this.

TechGeek777:

Okay please do let me know if you are able to lay your hands on the manual.

Can you give the seller's details?

FEGEITOK:


What about adding video cameras with internet access that send footage to a control room?

Would that terribly add to the cost of the setup?

If you want a system that has been pre-engineered, think MTN.

But you might be able to couple the system together if you have a team of IT engineers or video engineers
