Boss,
Please does anyone know why Sma Hybrid 12v 1kva inverter will be showing 09 fault code.
In the manual it means bus soft start failed.
It’s a new inverter.

my message was not directed at you so move along. You clearly don't understand anything about solar just copy and paste, you will just open your mouth and be speaking trash.

Okay but noneTheLess, you don't just ask One to make a change, without giving logical reasons. it's even worse when said item is very expensive.

Here na public forum, if you no want make person put mouth for matter, send them a DM / PM or make it obvious said comment is directed to them.

Good evening guys.

Please I need the services of someone who can couple lifepo4 cells in Port Harcourt.


I want to source the cells, the container and the BMS. I just need someone who can balance and couple them for me.

I need recommendation pls.

Depending on what sort of cells you ends up getting, coupling shouldn't be much a hassle, especially if you follow online guides.

NB: That you sourced cells yourself, doesn't necessarily mean you would get quality cells, except you really know about them, or have a superTrusted supplier

I saw a video of someone connected his 12v DC pressing iron to the load port of his MPPT controller, can I do same on my POWMR 60a?

yea.

Would / should work on any ChargeController that has such Load point wether na PWM or MPPT.

Also, mind you, that load-Port on chargeController ain't exactly 12-Volts Ooo. It's rating is often based on battery voltage Oooo.
for instance, that same load-Port giving you voltage of 12-volts, could equally give you 24-volts or 48-volts according to the battery voltage system.

Also, would suggest you don't plug heavy appliance on that chargeController load-Port so as not to endanger your chargeController.
I love that port because anything connected there, can't drain the battery beyond a responsible level. na there my Laptops dey 100% of the time.

Good day boses
I just installed this 12v 2kva Sms sunmate Hybrid inverter. Owner has a cheat freezer of 105w. My concern now is, the inverter couldn't power the freezer even while all other loads are off.
I know freezer has an higher startup current, i just thought the 2kva will be enough to power it.

My question is, what size of inverter will be recomendable for that size of freezer?

what's capacity and charge level of the batteries ?

What's the starting-Voltage of said chest freezer ?

Most of these funny inverter systems wey I dey see for here, me no sabi them. Who knows, maybe said inverter sef is over-Rated.

Also, why even trying to power a Freezer, even if na Fridge sef, on a 12-Volts system ?

So I believe 1 of the reasons for your poor yield is how you lay the panel and 2 the dusty weather.
Peterlove11:

Nothing is wrong with your panel. My solar yield has greatly dropped since January.
AshipaEk0:

You won't get 50% output from those panels this period.
Everyone is reporting much degraded output.
Used to get nameplate, now max out at 45% ish
Run these checks in 3 - 4 weeks when the bloody Harmattan is done
dollarnaira:

Not dust on the panels o. But huge dust in the air above affecting everyone Jinko or no Jinko. Wait for the first or 2nd rain to wash the said Harmattan dust in the atmosphere off. By then, sun rays will fully hit your pv wella. Dust don chop better part of the sun comot. So bro, the sun you are feeling now is big fake.
Debroslink:

Calm down bro, nothing is wrong with your setup and panels. My panels are dropping less than 50% output today than it was early January when harmattan hasn't started.Wait for the 1st heavy rainfall to clear the dust everywhere, then the sun will have premium access to those panels.
Thanks so much guys, we had our first rain of the year yesterday night… This morning I went to check the panel yeild, I was getting as high as 450W which is more than 80% of the rated wattage of the 550w Jinko panel. This was even as early as 10.30am. So your theories about the weather was very correct! Thank you guys. I was initially worried maybe it is was my wiring, maybe Foauni don dey sell fake Jinko, maybe it was my charge controller, so many maybes😂😂, I did not know it was dust in the sky that was cheating my panels of correct sun rays😅.

would suggest getting an inverter that supports other Voltages also e.g 12v & 24v.

Also, would suggest going for an inverter anywhere from 1.5KVA and above as 1KVA is easily not enough sooner than later.

rather than waste time waiting, why not go into market and buy new or used one.

As for the error code, with help of the manual, you should be able to interprete the error code into human readAble language.
It just might be a small issue.

Have often said it here, make una try dey avoid all these expensive unKnown appliances. which one be "SmS hybrid inverter".

Anyway consult the manual, e fit be small thing

not into this BUT with experience from normal elctronic circuits, the "20a 4s daly bluethooth dongle" clearly seems small for the BMS.

na either e no work at all, e small something, or it gives inAccurate readings

This indicates a problem with the inverter's IGBT or DC-DC MOSFET, which are components that convert DC power to AC power. This could be caused by a high AC surge or PV surge that damages these sections. You'll need it to take it to a service centre for repairs.

Please bosses.
I have a 60am cc.
Producing about 12 to 15smps currently.
Have 5x300 watts mix of poly and mono panels.
Plan to add 5 or 6 more 300w.
Can this be added to the cc on ground?
Thanks.
you failed to state if your charge controller is PWM or MPPT. That really matters.

Also why mixing solar panels of different types. Either focus on MONO or POLY.

Would suggest that since you intends adding more solar panels, focus on MONO and not mix up again so that the mixture no go too plenty again.
Would have suggesting removing the POLY entirely but I don't know how healthy your pocket is.

As for if your charge controller would work, just add up the enitire Max input current of your solar panels and if it's above 60A, though most times, the charge controller would handle things accordingly.

should in case the Max input current of the solar panels exceeds 60A, you could change configuration of the solar panels to combination of Series & Parallel to reduce the output current from the solar panels. Just be sure your chargeController is designed for such voltage.

You kuku see say I dinnor quote/reply him again😂😂😂😂 Because I know my controller is a premium controller. Even though the guy first made me fear😂. The panel is currently fully blasting power into my controller as I speak and the controller is almost nearing its peak 40A sef. I am getting 30A plus already. Bet me I knew nothing do the controller. The guy was just giving me High Blood Pressure advice😂😂.

What Brand would you recommend as a good MPPT charge controller. Something in the 80A and above range because I plan to add more panels later

if you could afford it, go for morningStar (more expensive) OR epEver (cheaper) or Fangpusun. There are a few others but those I listed are readily available in Nigerian markets especially epEver & Fangpusun

I am looking at FELICITY 80A because it seem like the only one that supports me remotely controlling it. I dont like going to charge controllers to check the screen all the time. I prefer to monitor everything from my ohone. The new Felicity MPPT controller supports that and seem readily available in the Nigerian market. Whats your take on FELICITY charge controllers

A single 300watts MONO solar panel or 2pcs to be on safer side since chances are, you would be making use of it while it's charging + weather conditions flunctuates. Just pair it with MPPT chargeController if going for more than 1pcs as using PWM would just be wasting the generated power

well no problem.
To me, chargeControllers, be like cPanel in hostings - except when needed, you've got no business with it.
Plus if you check, those brands I listed should have something similar.

Also, would suggest going for chargeController anywhere from 100A since you already aiming for 80A to reducew chances of nearing a forced upgrade.
