True.

atimes, it's best using what you're much more comfortable with. That something is BETTER, doesn't mean it would work well in a hand that doesn't know how to use it well.

Most of these things are for those who don't know the lower level way of doing things.

I could write something in RUST but I am much more comfortable in GO , Python , and C++ . Then it's either of those 3 languages I would go with.

meanwhile, e be like say I make out time to do this una automation.

Just asking if you use all these dumb inverters without editable settings and you don’t have solar what’s the best way to charge your lithium battery.
Would really appreciate y’all input it’s been giving me issues lately
You can use the dumb Inverterundecided or get an external charger

U didnt mention type of inverter and battery? Some inverters wud recommend putting a breaker between them and the battery so check ur manual too
Growatt hybrid.. AGM battery.

Flash sale

Used 1 unit of Original 12v 200ah Ritar SMF battery for sale

Battery was used under best practices (50% DoD) and charged optimally most times. It was used for 2 and half years.

Based on the load test I jperformed on the battery using the energy-efficient EASun satchet inverter on a load of 130w (just a 55" Hisense smart TV) it gave a backup time of 4 hours before hitting 12.0v from full charge. I project another 1 hour before the battery gets completely drained.

If you are looking to power a staggered load of lights, standing fan and laptop (all below 70w at any time), this will give you good value for money as it will last up to 7 hours

Battery will come with a free DC voltage meter that gives an independent voltage reading and a defective energy-efficient 18" Qasa AC/DC standing fan. I can refer you to someone that can fix it.

Price: 90,000 firm. Location is Lagos

Circuit breaker is important between the following places
1. Inverter and Battery
2. Solar Panel and Charge Controller
3. Charge Controller and Battery

Good afternoon all. I want to appreciate everyone for their advice and help, I was finally able to get my inverter system set up. Mercury 2.4kva hybrid, two 220ah mercury batteries and three 475w Jinko panels. I have been enjoying it since 5th of this month, it has been a wonderful experience, 24 hours light since then. My fridge is always on from morning till about 6pm.I also use it for ironing and blending, and for my washing machine. It was installed by one of us here - solarengr

I want the best possible combination to generate enough power from the panels to use at the same time charge my battery. I have 2 150w 12v panels. I need to add more panels.
U should av just stated ur panels spec and nos and the battery set up u want to use it for. Also type and specs of solar charge controller. The experts can then guide u on how to go abt it

Well,it is cool.
That iron part should be done with good sunlight. Don't try it with in the evening. Things are still very new here.

I actually bought the items myself from Cocharis. I bought the inverter at dealer price, 288k while the batteries cost 240k each at dealer price also. Then the Jinko panels cost 129k each. That's about 1.155m. Then I paid for the installation

you see eh, in technology, smart* is mostly for those not smart [enough] so if you dey use smartLoad, smartTv, don't know about smartPhones sha

What kind of take is this? Deye smartload function for those "not smart enough"
SmartTVs are for those not smart enough"
When e reach smartphones; your fuel finish.
Do you even understand the concept of the word "smart" in an electronic appliance/device?
Please I would like for you to expatiate of why you said so

First of all, congratulations on your set up.

I don't trust inverters with inbuilt chargers as they hardly charge batteries optimally. I speak out of experience from using 2 inverters. Most times, they undercharge your batteries and indicate them as been filled, when they aren't. Solar charge controllers are more efficient in charging batteries, under the same conditions, compared to inverters

Next, you need to be able to monitor the voltage of your batteries while charging and during usage to ensure they are always optimally charged and that you always stick to the 50% DoD rule a brother up there mentioned. The life of your battery depends on it. Get yourself a voltmeter and regularly do the checks. Or get this small digital voltmeter and have it permanently connected to your batteries so that you can get the voltage reading immediate

So, you'll recommend a separate hardware? I mean a separate charge controller and then an inverter?
