Probably again?
That's what I'm saying. Some of you just want to comment sometimes on issues you don't know and you try to sound authoritative on it. I have the cooker with me and i answered the person who asked a simple question directly but you must trivialize it by saying you guess or think just to make yourself seems relevant.

Please get at least 200AH battery.

Also ensure you go for average to quality brands else you would be changing batteries almost yearly

Please I need a 12v 200AH tabular battery to power my gadget. Which brand can you recommend for me. I have a budget of 250k to 300k or if you can suggest any other battery within that range it okay. Am currently using 12v 100AH but it's goes up around 2am

78w is better.....I remembered when I newly joined this group. 5kvas commonly consume over 100w on idle. Technology has come a long way. Imagine 10kvas now consuming less than 100w, isn't that wonderful. With increase in solar/renewable energy adoption and innovation in battery/inverter technology, in the nearest future nobody will be talking about idle load consumption anymore because it will become inconsequential

Boss, 78w idle power consumption for 5kva of transformer based is better. Hybrid is not better at all. Mine consumed 72w and I'm planning to change it.... 5kva 48v hybrid inverter should consume 50w max on idle mode.

@ISJ: I'm a realist and not one of this textbook theorist. I test things and obtain the actual performance. For the 1000w inverter, we use it regularly to cook, but we use only one plate at a time and without any other devise on. The spec of the electric cooker is 2000w. We also use the same inverter to pump water using our 1hp pump. See, there is nothing wrong in using a device up to its rated capacity. They are actually designed to handle that rated capacity without problem and that is why it's stated, except if the device is fake or substandard.

I'm surprised that 1kva 12v inverter could handle the listed loads, even though it's a transformer based.
What is the inverter surge?

Bad guy.

lol.. srne 10kw is 84w on idle

I'm new here. Please, which among these two is better. Note they are the same Kva. What's the difference as price seems lower on one than the other?

First is a 5kw that is the power.. it is a 48V inverter

Second is a battery, the energy storage capacity is 5kwh, it is a 24V battery..

So, which is advisable to get between the two...one seems like a standalone and the other hybrid...am I correct?

Dam5reey:
Hybrid: with Charger and MPPT built in.
Pros
Cost saving
Easy installation
Aesthetics
Efficiency

Cons
Not modular

Non Hybrid : with Charger no controller
Pros
easy to maintain.
independent devices

Cons
High cost
not efficient

Which Kva will you suggest for someone with these needs:


Two Fans: 80W + 35W = 115W
Freezer: 110W
Laptop: 45W
Router: 37W
TV: 50W
Decoder: 30W
Phone Charging: Approximately 5W each (around 10W for both)

Total for Regular Use: 397W

Occasional Use Appliances:

Blender: 350W
Iron: 800W (??)

Thanks

3KVA 24V..

Seems you did not get my last response..

One is a battery

One is an inverter.

I don't know the surge. Moreover, what are you doing with surge for a resistive load?

Good morning good people, I had this 6.2kva hybrid inverter set up with 4 turbular batteries, and my 9kva elepaq generator wouldn't charge it for whatever reasons, it does charge for a few minute and it stops at some point, what could be the cause?

I think newer inverters have better idle consumption.....but am more interested in the efficiency(DC to AC conversion) which is more important as most times our inverters ain't ever idle. Efficiency of inverting determine runtime most times.
My SMS 10.2kva has similar or if not better runtime than my previous 5kva felicity inverter.

Please I need mini iron with low watt.
Any recommendation?

maybe u should reduce utility charging amps to like 40A

What's the charging current of this hybrid inverter?

mctfopt:

The charging current for the Inverter is 80 amps. The inverter's rated current is 48V. Thing is, as soon as the voltage regulator gets to 8.2 then the inverter stops charging

Your 9kva Elepaq generator probably isn't going to be able to handle more than 4-5KW.

Plus it's tubular. Like someone above said, try limiting charging current to 20A. That's still over 1KW. Those batteries don't like high amperage charging anyway.

What inverter make and model is that?

Focus on the following brands - luminous , Felicity , Quanta , eastMan , Genus. There are more. Kindly note that the fact the brand name is mentioned on the battery, doesn't necessarily mean it's whats inside. e fit be Oluwole. As for your budget, My eye no gree see am

My own setUp no dey get opportunity dey idle at all except I OFF am which is almost impossible.

If connected appliances ain't mission critical, why leave idle when you could switch off.

Aside idle power draw, how much do the inverter it's self consume ?
