I believe you.
One is just cracked throughout the body, and I later used it in another part of my building to carry a fridge/freezer and just that one panel cracked is doing it perfectly. For how long will it last, don't know.

The second one not only cracked but a hole was created. I didn't use that one any other place coz I'm scared water/rain will enter the hole and damage cells. If there's an advice for me to still use it, pls I'll need some.

Anyway, I decided not to include those two because of the myth that adding panels that produce less wattage will affect the general production if connected with good ones. Don't know how true, but that fear made me not to add it to the other 8.
I mean it's prudent to not connect it with pristine ones, but like you observed they still pack a punch.

For the one with a hole, water usually doesn't do much damage, and the reason is that the glass is actually laminated which means apart from the very small exposed or damaged part of the cell, the other cells are water tight and still work fine. Just not at 100%.

Hello great people, I have been following this thread for a while, took my time to read through existing pages and was able to extract some information, but I’m really locked in between choosing battery.

Based on my power requirements, I would need at least 10kwh battery, this means the pylontech battery of that capacity will cost 4 million plus while felicity 15kwh (13kwh real capacity) will cost more less

This is not my first solar system, I have a 3.5kva 24v system with 2 flooded batteries and 8 x 300w Siemens panels, my plan is to upgrade to a bigger system using Deye 6kw from odyssey, 12 x 555w jinko panels from Fouani , Felicity battery from Naira lander here or Pylontech from Fouani

I would like to seek advise from people who have already used or installed either the Pylontech or felicity of that capacity, which one to choose considering durability, performance and ease of use.

Furthermore, I don’t want to use custom coupled battery because most of these batteries don’t offer communication port which is essential for the system I’m trying to build
Ur last statement isnt completely true. Valto here has coupled a few with the communication port present. The choice is urs in the end

it's not a myth but pure physics.
Would suggest using the cracked and broken Solar panels separately as a different setUp. With regards the one with hole, no much issue BUT would suggest you apply Glue (forgotten the name but there's this glue that comes in pairs, you need mix before using) , and finish off with any water-proofing glue also. That way, the little water that might penetrate would't stand a chance.

Ever wondered why measuring Voltage from Solar panel's terminal when connected to battery and charging, reads the battery bank's voltage BUT those figures jumps very high the moment the battery is disconnected ?

Please can I add a 580 watt panel to a 320watt panel?
YES you could but don't expect getting 580 + 320 = 900Watts when in Series OR Sum of it's total Current when in Parallel. There definitely would be tradeOffs. Except you've got it lying around, don't bother.

In other words, when mixed, it would increase the output but not to what you would expect.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 3:04pm On Oct 30, 2024
Gshems:
The 320 watt is KBC
. The 580 I am planning on getting is jinko 580
why not remain on 320 or upgrade entire stack to 580 ?

Except of course you already own over 15pcs of 320 watts panel, and can't afford upgrading them all

Good evening. Please, I want to decide between transformer based and hybrid inverter. My installer is saying I should use hybrid because it allows float charge and transformer based does not allow float charge even with an external charge controller. The orientation I have is that transformer based inverter is better than hybrid inverter for tubular batteries. I need advise on the right type of inverter to choose.
Wonder where you people meet such category of professionals

Is it compulsory that cable length between batteries in series connection be same length?

NO


NB:
the shorter the Cable, the better
the thicker the Cable, the better

Thanks chief... Can transformerless do the job perfectly..? The kind of sako, welion, SRNE..?


HeavenlyBang:
Buy a battery from SRNE.



Personally wouldn't buy something under 6KW for this. 8KW preferably. Keep the inverter unstressed.

would suggest using a Transformer based inverter for this. it's what I use myself. TransformerLess would work BUT they are not as rugged as Transformer based ones hence can't take abuses any how.
Plus when Transformer based inverters go bad, chances of FIXing them is much higher than those transformerLess ones

Go for the transformerless as the idle consumption of the the transformer base inverter is high unless you have a large battery bank

Someone in this group literally showed pics evidence that he paralleled 550kw, 200kw and some other kW panel and solar controller gave him a perfect addition of them all without losing from the smallest rated panel. How did that work?

Hello house. I think I made a mistake by buying 4mm DC cables. I intend using two Jinko 615w panels. Please, is there any risk of fire hazard with this wire or will I only lose efficiency from my panels?

In everything, always use higher than recommended cables to secure you in future. 4mm is toooo small

I disagree with your last statement. In the picture is a 48v 304ah batched and matched grade A cells we coupled with the communication port and delivered to the owner in Ondo State. Other ones in the picture are solar generators.

Buy another 4mm² to give 8mm² in combination with another full 4mm². B4 fire starts cable must heat up, get warm, get hot, get hotter. If you are rich in this present economy discard it and get another cable size but otherwise use sense.

For the choice of felicity battery and Pylontech, I will suggest you go for Pylontech if you have the money. More warranty period......
Most people prefer felicity and other products because using 4m for example to purchase 10kwh of Pylontech, the same 4m will give them 15-20kwh of felicity battery or other products.

4mm already is too small, and would waste resources for you while in use; not to mention the inherent danger it might pose.
Now what happens when you increase capacity of your setUp later ?
I would suggest you change those cables now.

What I do in anything I do (doesn't matter if it's Solar or Computers or Programs, or Building something) is: if I need 1, I try and use 3 and above. If you had applied that, you would have aspired to buy 6mm or 10mm even when you thought all you needed was 4mm.

He doesn't have to discard them. he just keeps them for something else later on.
He shouldn't even try to trade it as except He's selling Hand 2 Hand, to someone not so experienced, na him go still loose.

BUT if he's yet to make use of the cables, would suggest He trries to reNegotiate with the seller to see how he could exchange for something higher say 6 or 10 mm BUT most times, they ensure they EARN more, while YOU loose more hence you really need be good in negotiating, and ensure you don't tell them your intention, until you both have arrived at a price for the new size you want to buy, after which you now tell them you intends returning the previous 4mm, and adding the difference
