Good day guys,

I have 350k set aside for solar installation, and I intend to use it for 2 laptops, 2 Fans and my gadgets. That's all. I don't mind just a solar panel and one battery.

Kindly advise me if this is feasible. If yes, Where can I get this stuff. Thanks.

If it can't get it, have you considered solar installation based on instalment payments?

90k for a 250W mono solar panel
18k for a 30A Pwm solar charge controller
130k for a 100ah 12v gel battery
100k for a 1kva inverter

It's possible, though not an optimal setup. But it will serve till you're ready to upgrade.

Thanks for this input.

Sorry, not to bother you, but can you lay emphasis on "not an optimal setup"

how long before he upgrades?

I just plan to buy solar and rechargeable fan 85k
Rechargeable bulb 5 each.

Recommend wetin fit power my tv and dstv only.

Don't waste your money
It won't be enough

The recipe is okay not disaster
250w solar panel okay for 100a battery
7A is more than enough to charge 100a battery

What amount is needed to solar-power a 6-bedroom duplex with a chest freezer and a standing fridge, no AC's?

If they are New freezers not old type
Plan for Minimum 5kw solar powered inverter
Details
18 Solar panels of 300w
4 tubular batteries
5kw Hybrid Inverter 48v
Accessories

Pls.guys,.I need more inputs from experienced folks. Thanks

Hmmm!

This is going to be a recipe for disaster.

One 250w solar panel at Isc of about 7A on a PWM charge controller will never take that battery to a full Bulk charge of 14.4V.

My guy will definitely have issues in less than 3 months after installation because the battery will sulphate from undercharging.

I will advise op get more funds and set-up something that will be worth the effort. An MPPT charge controller will be most appropriate because of its efficiency.
He will need about 2-3 additional panels for faster charging.

My guy, just invest the 350k and do a good job later.
You are not ready yet

budget 600,000 or more

I really have been saving up to set up a solar panel in my place which is pocket friendly..... to power my appliances which are laptop, too standing fan, Samsung 42inches tv set and a sound bar.

Hmmm, you can start small and upgrade later. That's the beauty of solar

No

That amount is too little unless you want to purchase solar generator. A good solar generator could cost you about 550k without panel. We also have solar gen of about 300k with panel that will last couple of hours when fully charged. But if you intend buying an invert it will cost you more,, let's say about 900k or more.

Do you know how to get this?

Single solar panel ke, na for inside cage you dey live?

Make I dey observe as NEPA don finally become unfortunate

albert2512:

Yes. I use two of such

1: 2pc 245W used Trina solar panels @60k each= 120,000

2: 1pc 12v 220AH Tubular Battery =285,000

3: 1pc 1000w 12vDC to 220v AC mini Inverter= 65-70k

4: At least 15m of 2mm Double core Flexible cable @ 2500-3,500 per yard

5: 40AH Mppt Charge controller = 70-90k

6: Other optional devices like Breaker, Surge Protection

I'm interested pls

.

Yes

Recipie for disaster

ProjectsCityNG:

What location and how do I get it for instalment

80% of these so call Solar are fakes, but many Nigerians don’t know..

Yes but your battery will be a little bit smaller than the normal one

Solar inverter and solar generator which is better

Which one be solar generator again?



All these extreme wannabe engineers sef.
