The 11th edition of Nigeria Energy is just around the corner, for those who complained last year that they would have loved to attend if they had been aware, well, this year by the grace of God is another opportunity.

Search for "Nigeria Energy Registration" on google to preregister.

Same venue for several years on? So na only Lagos State get the appropriate venue for this event?, Same question I asked last year.

It's alright na.

WARNING!!!
Selina Li of Shenzhen Deriy New Energy Technology, I'm giving you between today and and Friday this week to refund my shipping fees.
If I do not receive my money on or before Friday this week, I will drop a negative review in your Alibaba page. I will also expose your dubious lifestyle to all the solar forums.
I bought cells from you. You told me you have an agent that ship your cells to Nigeria. I paid for the shipping fees you asked me to pay.
When the cells finally arrived Nigeria, you refused to send the money to the shipper on time. To avoid further delay, I had to pay the shipper and collect my goods.
You later told me to send the payment receipt to you so that you can make a refund and I did.
For over a year now, you have been turning me upsidedown.
I've saved all our private chats and I will forward them all.......
Has this been resolved?

Does that mean the combined capacity of the battery is now 400A?

No. They're connected in series, so voltage increases, not current.

No still 100a bc they are connected in series.

Series connection increases voltage, same amp.

Parallel connection increases amp, same voltage.

I usually wonder how these very affordable systems cope when there is no sun and no grid. Especially based on the intended load.

Has anyone used similar setup for atleast a year, and what are their experiences?

Btw, this company is growing fast! And I am studying them make I too fit grow my own 🙂, but some of their solutions look really undersized. I may be wrong.

That person that told you that you need a 24v inverter to be able to power your fridge or freezer NA QUACK.
I will suggest you stop listening to his misleading advice.
I have very little context so pardon me. I am responding to this purely on the face of the comment. I have been a solar user now for over 8 years. My first system was a 1.2kw (inverter) paired with a 480w solar and 2 Tubular batteries. That system paired with the grid was able to power basic house loads including a 130L chest freezer. The freezer ran for 4 hours a day.

I later upgraded the inverter to 2.4kw (Axpert inverter) and pared it with 1.8kw solar (and same Tubular battery as before) and ran the house completely off-grid from this setup for over 2 years (no NEPA setup)

In all I ran a 24v system from 2016 - 2022 and had most of my basic loads like fridge, freezer, occasional microwave, occasional ironing etc.

Of cause I did not run all the powerful loads all at ones but my point is, design design design. System design is 80% of the work on solar.

Key is performing a proper energy audit. Designing your system around the result of your energy audit. I used 2 tubular batteries, 2.4kw inverter and 1.8kw solar panels to power a 2 bedroom apartment completely off-grid and I lived quite comfortably (as comfortable as you can live without AC LOL)

Even now with a much upgraded system, you can check my daily usage averages at about 1.5kw (when I have 1 AC a freezer, fridge, fan, lots of computers - running in my home lab including a 64 Terabyte NAS with 64g ram and 8 core AMD Ryzen) all of this is running on less than 2kw and when AC is off house load drops to less than 1kw. My VRM numbers is there for anyone to see https://vrm.victronenergy.com/installation/453590/share/df9180a7

People don't use as much power as they think. It is fine and very possible to use a lean prudent, low power system you just have to have the whole system well designed from load to generation to storage.

I wrote a post about lean systems where I talked about how to perform a proper audit https://blog.openculture.org.ng/of-a-budget-solar-inverter-system-energy-audit/

I also made a video of my 24v solar setup back in 2018 which I shared here

Can't reiterate this nearly enough. People don't use anywhere near as much power as they assume, really.

My typical usage is about 250w, which is a fridge, freezer, rechargeable fan, a small sound system, and a laptop and phones charging.

There are days when I don't turn on any of the TVs, or ACs, or appliances like microwave, air fryer, etc. And on those days, it's really just my inverter supplying that 250w of power all day.

It's nice to have the capacity to run heavy duty appliances, but most people will be able to survive on really basic setups just fine.

And just like that, I'm back to stalking Bigrovar. Sir, I need to pay you tribute (I hope you get to see this). I patterned my system after your 2nd system (3kw inverter, 1.8kw modules and 4kwh batteries {lithium}, even the fangpusun 150v/70a controller), and I have lived off grid and like a princess since 2020. My solar journey began in 2016. In fact, my first inverter, a 12v sukam was purchased in I think 2017 because you spoke highly of it. I stalked your stats on one of the sites you posted it for months (pvoutput.org I am not sure), while encouraging myself that when my panels are complete, I will be able to generate what Bigrovar is generating.
Now you have posted your victron stats, phase 2 of the stalking begins. Maybe this is a sign from God that I should upgrade to victron. Just know your system encouraged someone. Thank you.
Sir, kindly share what your current system is, modules, batteries, inverter and all.
