Hi so were you able to solve this issue...


I have someone with similar case...

Please tell me solution if it's been solved.

Nothing is wrong with your batteries. That batteries usable voltage ranges from 12.7 to 11.9v

So don't need to change anything cause the setup was done for someone and I noticed from the full bar in the evening once it gets dark 2bar disappears from the charge controller...

And the guy who install the system said everything is okay I don't need to worry..

I just want to be sure so the battery doesn't get spoil soon or anything.....

swagifted:
you saw the article on nairaland by ugodre of nairametrics where he said they are currently paying over 400 naira per unit for electricity in his estate in ikate and i think they are less than 20 tenants in that estate, and the company offering the power as a service is even using diesel gen to supplement power when the grid is not supplying.....with massive solar as a landlord every afternoon you go just de smile to the bank,...and according to him part of the agreement was that price of electricity can be adjusted in months time ..if the price of diesel kept going up by now electricity for that estate go don reach 500 naira per unit....Jabi lake mall in abuja has 600KW of solar panels sitting on top of its roof... You can imagine the energy savings all these years... Ado bayero mall in kano state has 1MW of solar panels on its roof.. That one they used Schneider electric inverters. Enormous daytime energy savings...money de dis thing. I don see am finish.

I know some one that sell electricity in his plaza and few house hold close by, this guy dey cash out.
He said if his client decide to be conservative, his sure he will always earn 50k-70k...
Omo I just said in my head if market no sell, light go sell

Abuja People !!!

The fear of Band A, Band B and Band etc is the beginning of wisdom.
This Client first said: "just install something that will power my fridge and Lighting points."
And I asked him, "Will you be wanting to upgrade this setup someday?"
He said maybe. I proposed he should simply go OFF-GRID he said give me quotation, I quoted:

12Kw Deye Inverter
24x625W Jinko,
35KW (2 x 17.5KW) Felicity Lithium

as usual and he screamed and said just install something that will power my fridge and Lighting points that he can add things later and will be supporting the heavy loads and recharge the battery with Nepa for now (I explained and tried to discourage him from doing this till I got tired). We adjusted this quotation so tey we landed on:

8KW Deye
17.5KW Felicity Lithium
3.5KWp Jinko Panels (8x440w)

And we deployed.
He was happy, but then the battery will never fill up before sun down, he recharged his Meter as usual 50K (Band A) twice and the credit lasted less than 3 days, He called me back and said:
"E be like say that thing wey you been dey try explain to me na true ooo, to charge this battery with Nepa go tear my wallet"

He said Ok let's power the whole house and see
So I did something for him, I powered the whole house, Put some ACs the heavy loads on SmartLoad, we switched off the water heater and job done.
He tested for 3 days and as soon as the client noticed that the inverter could take all his loads, He called me back and said that we have to upgrade this setup ASAP to power everything house 247. But remember that we had opted for an 8KW instead of 12KW inverter, 440w Panels instead of 625w Panels, 1 unit of 17.5kw Instead of 2 Units. He asked if we can sell the Inverter and Panels to upgrade to the initial quote. I told him that he might not realize the money 100% and he screamed "something wey I never use up to one week?
I asked if I should post it online and see, he said no let him contact his friends that knows about Inverters and Solar. He did and in my presence his friends where pricing less than half of what he invested. I asked him again "Make I post am online?" He said "NO NEED, If people wey know me dey price am like this, wetin people wey no know me go come price am" that I should find a way to make this thing work out.

And so I did:

8KW Deye
35KW (2 x 17.5KW) Felicity Lithium
12KWp Jinko Panels (8x625W + 16x440w)
After powering up around 1PM yesterday, the Batteries filled up before 4PM from 40% to 100%.
Thanks to Deye SmartLoad Function

Clients can be difficult, But do your best as the Engineer to convince them with evidence.

Weldone but are you sure all these appliances can be powered concurrently on a 8kw Deye though? 8 units of 1.5hp and heater alone seem to exceed 8kw already unless you were sure that they all won't be powered concurrently otherwise you may need another Deye in parallel

jonescosmos:
SolarCo is a reliable Partner.

I was supposed to do this project in Jabi. But some other projects took me out to PH and all, they grew inpatient and went on to bring in their Team from Lebanon to do the installation.
Lot's of similar projects has been done in Abuja recently, many more on going.

I will be deploying a
50KW Deye HV
74KWp (128 x 580W) Longi Hi-Mo X6 Panels,
61.2KW Deye HV Battery Rack

And Another:
12KW Deye

Pretty soon.
Great Guys, Great Team, Very Humble young dudes I must confess.

See bragging 😄😄 your attached pics is intimidating. Love it! Yes to renewable energy all the way.

@Jonescosmos

I always love your detailed writings and e dey give me joy to read. Well done !

This one pass bragging o! The man knows he's job well..

Na wa o. This is the new goldmine o! People will definitely pay good money for stable and clean electricity.

Imagine owning like 6 blocks of 3 bedroom and powering it up with MW of PV, that's good money to be made but pocket go shake small.

Zeestone99 na correct person. He's like family now. He's bin a major help in my small installation journey together with this group. Even questions wey no make sense, he wud still nicely respond to u and even offer u better options/alternative. Gotten a few inverters from him but the single one he helped me get from his colleague that was faulty from source, he took 100% charge of it and ensured it was repaired under warranty same day i sent it and got it back.
Thanks for all u do brother.
Plenty more transactions ur way bro 🙌🙌🙌

My oga. Thank you sir

emmaniche:
I have asked Zeestone99 1 million questions with no purchase and the guy was so receptive and gives advice.
Same with linov, with some minor purchase..
Once u engage kiekie and mccmanuel. They go dy claim class, dy describe how big they are.
Was talking to kiekie some days ago and arrogance was allover the conversation. If na so una money many make una leave the thread for us.

The buyer eventually sent me the money and I've paid for supplies through another person.

We all dy do business and approach matters.

If I go even receive attitude, na attitude from people wy no dy utter support or advice from this thread?

I don't even know this guy and can't remember our conversations. Thank you sir for putting the word My oga.

na untop one 50kw inverter you wan mount 74KWp ? i thought 65kw was the max array size for that inverter? omo solarco gave me price for that high voltage battery (the complete 60kwh) cold catch me...

10 watts Gotv decoder
6 pcs 5watts bulb
3 pcs 30 watts AC/DC fan
3 phone charging point

The setup:

60A CC with 1400w panel on a 12V system is a waste of resources.
with these loads, you need at least a 2000w panel, switch the batteries to 24V 105ah use 80A controller or 48V 50Ah LFP to maintain the 60A controller
Hybrid Inverter would have been a better choice.
My recommendation for this kind of load is 24V 2KW Hybrid with 80A MPPT, 2000watts panel to use during the day also to recharge, 24V, 210Ah LFP to power night loads

Hello my people
Please in order of efficiency which of this brand is good to buy …


Yohako lithium
Felicity lithium
Bluecarbon lithium

Thank you

These three products have similar efficiency/capacity ratings.
Blue carbon might be a bit better, though I have not heard much reviews on it.

Not resolved yet. Planning to get an MPPT CC

Please tell me solution if it's been solved.

Solarco guys are really nice people.

Wanted getting another set of 5 panels from them and because they didn't have stock in Lagos he offered free shipping from Abuja to Lagos and also offered to compensate me something for fuel to move them from the park to my house. The panels were already cheaper than Jinko from Fouani.

After some discussions with him he advised I go with the Jinko 625W that they are also great panels rather than trying to talk down on the product so as to buy from them.

Budget wise, don't you think changing the 60a CC to 80a CC can give him better performance?
If I'm working on 12v system, the max inverter capacity I go for is 1.5kw. Anything above this capacity will move me to 24v system.

Please can you confirm if the 5kw has the smart load function as I can't seem to figure it out.

1400w solar panels on a 60a charge controller at 12v is a waste as the controller will only be able to take about 800w from the panels thereby discarding the rest, your best bet is to go for 24v system and opt for 120a 24v lifepo4 battery
