Hello house, good evening.

So I have a setup of 3 pieces of 250w panels on a 1.5kva inverter and 2 batteries, but it doesn't charge fast enough with the panels, I figured that it needed more panels and someone is offering me a brand new 520 wats panel at a good price, however, I refused buying cos I read that joining panels of different wattage together is not a good idea, however, I went ahead to ask my installer if the panels can work together and to my shock, he says they will work fine. I am sceptical about it and don't trust his judgment on this one, so I decided to ask the professionals in the house, what are the pros and cons of joining panels of different wattage with such wide margin?

You need to provide more information:

What are the models, type and sizes of the batteries? What is the brand of the solar panels? And what is the purchase source of the solar panels? This will help us know whether it is likely to be of true capacity as most solar panes are usually of lower capacity compared to what it is advertised as

Also, what is the configuration of the solar panel connection and what kind of solar charge controller are you using?

Cutezt:



The panels I want to buy is the Felicity solar 540w Mono crystalline Half Cell kit 540watts, maximum power voltage 41.62V, mpc 12.98, opc 49.55

The panels I have currently installed are 250-watts- [24v] Monocrystalline Solar Panels
Output Power 250w
Length (mm)1210Width (mm)808
Warranty2 YearsSupplied
Cable0.8mShort
Circuit Current8.67A
Open Circuit Voltage24/48V
Weight (kg)12Height (mm)35Output
System Voltage24VDC
ConstructionMonocrystalline
Maximum Power Voltage18.5V

The batteries are 2 luminous batteries, connected safepower 1.5kva inverter. I really don't know he configured the panels but he said we will buy a higher CC, the one I currently have is 40a, I will attach the image spec below

There used to be some methods achieved with Squid back in the day. The idea was for a local server to locally cache regularly access info on the internet so that when accessed once, all other requests for that info will first check if it is available locally before going to access it online. Is there a better way to achieve this nowadays?

brightk:
i think mikrotik does it better.. back in the days we made use of a spare pc n referred it to as cache. We installed some spare hdd n installed mikrotik x86 on the boot drives leaving the other bigger drives to act as the proxy cache. I believe things have grown abovecthis stage. Maybe you can check on the mokrotik product catalogue to see which products fit your needs

odimbannamdi:


You still didn't state the size and type of the batteries. The type of connection configuration of the panels would also have been helpful in giving you some precise advise, so I will just make some assumptions and inference to advise you from my own experience

All other things being equal and theoretically, 1 unit of 200ah smf (sealed maintenance free) lead acid battery will need at least 600w solar panels to charge optimally. This assumption becomes more significant if your batteries are tubular batteries, as tubular batteries need more intense charging.

You mentioned that you have just 3 units of 250w solar panels. So, following the rule above, your cummulative solar panels capacity is 450w short of charging your 2 batteries optimally

Also, if you did not get your solar panels from a credible source, there is a very high chance that what you have is a 150w (or even less) panels pasted with a 250w sticker.

Again, the configuration with which your solar panels are connected plays a significant role in harvesting sunlight optimally for their true capacity. For that size, anything short of a 3-Series connection will be sub-optimal

Finally, even though the full picture is not in view, I can decipher that your solar charge controller is a PWM. PWM controllers are not smart enough to harvest sunlight energy optimally. You could have gotten away with PWM if you were on one battery or had a better connection. It is best you go for MPPT solar charge controllers

dacool1:


I don't think this will work. The voltage of the panels do not match except you will be willing to buy another charge controller.

Cutezt:



Sorry i skipped that part, My batteries are 2 luminous Tubular batteries, 220ah. and i really did not buy the equipment myself, the installer did everything based on my budget at that time but the pannels are able to get me through the day till the next day before it goes low if there is not enough sunlight. Yes, My charge controller is PWM and i dont mind buying the MPPT if the pannels will work.




If it will work, i will look at the more economical option, if buying 250w pannels to match the setup in place already or buying the 540w and a new charge controller.

Throw more light on the emboldened. But based on your explanation so far, it will be cheaper and more cost-effective for you to switch to MPPT first and observe for improvements before you invest more into solar panels

Cutezt:


What i meant is that if the batteries are charged, even if it is halfway, i can use it for the entire day, i usually turn it off at night as i dont need light for anything as i sleep, but that's usually very late, maybe 1 or 2am. It takes me from the previous day till the next day, if there is not enough sunlight on that day, it goes to around 23v and i usually turn it off that time. so in summary, if charged anywhere around 25% with Light, then it takes me around 20 hours with 4-5 hours of sunlight.

Mikrotik may not be as reliable in high-traffic environments or may not be well-suited for large-scale network deployments. Mikrotik has limited tweaks and flexibility in terms of traffic manipulations.

I didn't bother myself to make my Mikrotik box a Cache and Proxy Server because it's handling lots of things already, going from ROUTING, DHCP, FIREWALL, MULTI-WAN, etc. each time I tried to implement a proxy server with this same box, I always notice a slight difference in performance. So I intend to deploy a second box to handle the Proxying part of my traffic and maybe Hotspot Server for my staff and guests.

I have to mention that Mikrotik DNS always crash because of the big static list which leads to a R/W issues. Back in the days when the x86 versions was the best option for larger network environments, R/W speed was a problem, as year went by, we had SSDs which performed better but you can't compare the performance of Mikrotik to the likes of Squid and NGINX running on it's own linux machine and solely for the purpose of Caching and Proxying internet traffic. Even though we now have more robust Mikrotik ROS Boxes and Hardwares with sophisticated configurations, Mikrotik still haven't made to the Top 10 Cache and Proxy Server lists till date.

Good morning house.
Pls I need the idea of cost to install:
2 batteries (200ah each) 1200watts panel(do I go for 200×6 or 150×
Will 60a controller be ok

This is what I propose:
Panels 1200 watts
Controller 60a
Inverter 2.5kw
Battery 400ah

Cost of switches, changeover, cables etc should be factored in please. Thanks

Thanks

Put price. It not always easy to b adding contact just because person ask for price. If ur price is fair, the item will market itself.
