Doesn't your battery last longer again?

If it doesn't, you may need to check your solar panels

Good morning house, is mopower a good brand? Will their 1.6kva 12v inverter carry fridge and washing machine (not at the same time though)?

It's okay.
How many batteries are you planning to use

10m should tidy the project.

Besides the initial op wanted the system to run at night.

If you plan to run during the day, 7m will cater for it

I think the best thing is to combine days and night together..
Thanks so much bro

I actually wanted to get mercury 2.4kva hybrid inverter and two batteries but I don't have the funds for that.

So, I decided to get a 1.6kva 12v inverter and get a single battery, just for light and charging of laptop. I will get another battery when I have more money, dats when I plan to start using fridge and washing machine on it

Okay then.

It's a good plan. Everything should go smoothly then.

Good luck

My 1050kva got affected by lightening and then I bought a 1.5kva 12v. I use it on a 220ah battery. It powers my 105w deep freezer and my 55w table top fridge.

It also powers the 8kg top loader washing machine of 360w.

However, I only run the 55w fridge in the afternoon when there's sun, so I don't stress the battery. The 105w freezer is connected to the mains directly, cut out from the inverter line.

That's how I've been using mine. Both battery and inverter are Su-kam's.

Ok, thanks for the information. The installer I asked advised me not to use either of them until I have at least two batteries. That means I can run the fridge and washing machine on the single battery then.

How much did you get the battery and the inverter?

Also, how many panels do you use?

Your load is similar to my brother's load, pls how many panels and watts do you use also what type of charge controller mppt or pmw and what range 60a, 40a

Thanks

The battery was 255,000, 1.5kva inverter was 215,000.

These are Port Harcourt prices, might be cheaper else where.

I use a 580w Jinko panel to power the ba3. And I make sure I don't use the ba3 below 50% before the next recharge.

So when there's no assurance of NEPA light at night, I only use lighting points when necessary, my inverter fan and charging of phone and laptop.

NB: I can use the table top fridge and the washing machine together, but I don't do that because it's just one ba3. So if I'm using one, the other has to be off. However, in the afternoon when there's sun, the 55w fridge can be on alongside the 43inch TV, decoder, and home theater. All these combined only amount to about 20% load on the inverter.

And I do this only when the charge controller shows a float charge.

The panel is a 580w Jinko panel. I use a 40a MPPT charge controller with a maximum power of 75volt.

Thanks a lot. With this your setup, you are able to have light basically 24 hours ba, especially all thru the night for fan and charging of laptop/phone?

Good morning house. I want to buy a Mercury 1.5kva hybrid inverter, a single 220ah battery and two 420w solar panels.

Will this setup be OK for charging of phones and laptop, one fan and a fridge (the fridge will be on for maybe 2 hours in the daytime during float charge)?

More importantly, kindly let me know the other things I will need to buy along with the inverter like surge protector, wires, etc and I will appreciate if the amount for each of them can also be put along with it. Thanks

What's the wattage of the fridge?
Be sure that the hybrid inverter is able to provide enough surge to start the fridge

The fridge is 120w while the washing machine is 240w. According to the website, the 1.5kva inverter can take a surge which is twice it's capacity for 5 seconds

Biko how much is the tubular?
I really wish you research to confirm the continuous power of the inverter if it is truly 750w. Mind you, your freezer will do btw 600 and 960w surge.

The tubular battery is 340k. I wont mind if I can find a cheaper but well trusted brand though.

They stated that the rated output power is 1500w, dont know if that is the same as the continuous power.

Ok, if the surge is 960w, will the 1.5kva inverter not handle such?
