5kVA with lithium battery

You went for the best.

Hello here. Please I really need some help here.

I installed this inverter and battery in November last year for my remote job. I didn't install solar panels because we normally have up to 18 hours power supply in my area except on some bad days when power could go off for 2 days or more.

I use it to power just my work laptop and phone and it normally stay up to 2days or more before draining out. I work 9-5. I don't use it to power any other electronics, not even my bulbs.

All of a sudden in April, the battery stopped charging, when I informed the guy who fixed it I was told the inverter is bad, that high current led to it, even though we didn't experience any high current situation in my area during that time. He said I'll need to buy an external battery charger which I bought and have been using.

Problem is, since I started charging with the external charger the battery no longer last beyond 2 hours before it drains out and this is really affecting my job.

I have informed the guy who installed it but he's not proferring any solution.

Please I need help on what to do to get it to last 2 days+ as it used to as this is affecting my job badly.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but your battery is dead. Haven gotten that out of the way, let's look at the reason why?

1. Your battery is a fake Chinese battery, so the internals are crappy. Even under optimal condition it wouldn't have lasted 1year.
2. Constantly draining Ur battery below 50% deep of discharge will kill Ur battery in no time, as the battery cannot tolerate the abuse. These singular reason is why the world is going lithium.
3. Ur inverter is one of the worst in the market as it can drain your battery to below 11v cos one cannot edit the parameters to a desired set point especially for low voltage disconnect, and if done a couple of times will put ur battery in a coma and the effect might be irreversible.
4. While I applaud your journey so far, not minding the setbacks, there is a saying that one's system is as good as the materials we use for it, quality hardwares aren't cheap so you might spend a little more to get Ur desired results.
Lastly and as an advise, since u're only charging Ur laptop and phones, getting a full inverter system isn't efficient as there are individuals here on nairaland who build laptop battery banks with lithium batteries for such task and these are more efficient and durable than the system u have.
I would advise you search for such and enjoy ur investment.
Once again sorry for the stress. Cheers

I really appreciate your response. Thank you!

I need to mention that I stopped using the inverter and battery as soon as it stopped charging, I worked from a friend's place whenever there's no power till I got the battery charger, neither did I ever use it when it's low. You need to see how I pamper it cos it's important to my job. As soon as it beeps once I turn it off immediately! and the beeping sound only started happening when I started charging with an external battery charger and this is because it doesn't last beyond 2 hours.

So it's most likely number 1, the guy installed a fake Chinese battery without warranty for me and failed to let me know. Funny enough I got to know him from nairaland here!

Please can the battery still be redeemed, if yes, please let me know how to go about it, if not, kindly tell me more about the laptop battery bank as I haven't heard of it before. If I knew about it before I wouldn't have gone for the inverter honestly. The information I'd like to know is: How much should I budget for the laptop battery bank if I have to go for it, and what quality should I look out for to forestall any issues in future.

From my experience, you battery is gone, lead acid especially cheap Chinese brands cannot be saved, you might have a slim chance if it were the premium brands.

As for the laptop power banks, there are various models and capacities out there mostly based on your budget, from brand new ready made to locally fabricated.

On nairaland you can look at offerings from the following:-

https://www.nairaland.com/390522/solar-energy-complement-fta/1431#124263369

https://www.nairaland.com/390522/solar-energy-complement-fta/1433#124327564

https://www.nairaland.com/6808693/super-laptop-powerbank-extended-runtime

https://www.nairaland.com/7542130/pastor-sam-adeyemi-wife-return#120398591

https://www.nairaland.com/7527435/know-there-powerbank-laptops-more#120087971

The list above were just randomly selected from their posts on nairaland, I can only vouch for the first 4, while others were selected to give options.

Lastly, if cost becomes an issue, you can simply swap out your existing battery and get a new one, there are premium lead acid batteries available in the market ( Fullriver and quanta Amarin) or off you can afford it contact @valto to build you a small lithium battery pack, that will last you a guaranteed 5yrs and more. Cheers

I'm truly grateful for your help and the recommendations. Thanks and God bless you. I'll take my time to think through all the options you've shared so as to select the best option and plan towards it ASAP!

Once again, I'm grateful!

Like he advised, I think building a lithium battery bank for your laptop will be the best. Even if it's a small bank, go for it. better longevity and cost effectiveness in the long run

Hello guys , please I need your suggestion
I intend to build a mini solar system in my home just for charging my Phones and Laptops just two actually then probably weekend to watch TV with my GoTV decoder. My TV is a LED LG product of 32 INCHES.

1. I don’t know if just one battery is okay and which maker is best I get ?
2. I want to get A charge controller of 30A I don’t know if it would be okay?
3. I intend to get two solar panels of 250W each as well and lastly
4. Inverter with charge of 2000W
Then circuit breaker and wires & clips

I don’t know if all this I’ve listed is for good and optimum performance
Would appreciate recommendations where due from everyone

Thanks

If you go through his write up again, you will see that he said he uses them in the afternoon, with means direct current from the solar.
I have 1.5kva inverter (Luminous hybrid) and 1000 w panel (250w per1), (2) 100a batteries I use it with my freezer ONLY in the afternoon and TV, dstv and 7 bulbs (5w) from 6.30pm to 10pm every day.
As I am writing now, my freezer is very chilled. It works perfectly.

Good morning!
Please can i use this to power 140w non inverter Hisense freezer?
