TrebleChamp:
What can you say about Anker Solix Power Stations? Are they as reliable as Ecoflow and Bluetti Power Stations?

I wouldn't recommend anker especially the bigger ones. This is because they have a very large inverter and small battery. For example anker solix F3800

Yea...wait till Christmas bonus...

This sweet machine just arrived!

What I noticed about the Delta 2 in the little test I did.

Well, while charging at the optimum (fast charge) which is the default setting, the fan came on, but I don't see the big deal out of it like how people made it look like...you go think say na generator noise the fan go make...it was really okay despite drawing 1k+ watts as you can see in the picture above.

Also, certain appliances like my fans, rated 80 watts actually consumed half of their rated wattage. 42 watts. The freezer rated 110 consumed 123. TV rated 60 watts consumed lesser in the 40s...Decoder no even register, i think 3. Router directly did not register, but with battery ups, between 10 - 18. Laptop rated 45 consumed 50.

My review: This is really okay for everyday usage and things...if you want to enjoy it really, add solar panel to use it during the day....

Then, for the End of Discussion, you can go for the extra battery...

This will really eliminate my petrol cost for the month at 54k, by God's grace.

Excellent. Welcome to the league.

I think people are unwilling to shift to solar (particularly power stations) because of the huge one-time cost incurred. They feel like if they buy a generator at 200k, and buy fuel with daily profits, they won't feel the dip in their purse. But in the long run (in less than a year), running a generator is far more expensive.

my estimation for using a (owned) 2.5kva generator (excluding monthly servicing, random frustrations, noise/smoke etc) for 3 hrs daily (which is not even enough to meet my need considering our nepa issues) is exactly 945k which was about the cost of the D2. Dropping that lump sum at once is a problem for many micro/small businesses.

I can't even use mine every day, which is why I spend 52k monthly.

If I were to use it for 4 hours every day, that means I may spend 4 litres. 4 x N1044 = N4,176. In seven days, that is N29,232. In a month, that is N116,928.

In 12 months, that is N1,403,136.

That's because they don't want to believe in the data or have not done the calculation objectively.

Excellent. Welcome to the league.

sup chief, I have this refrigerator of 103w running watts with starting watts of more than 1000w ( I Knw this cos it draw craze comot from my generator of 2.5kva when it powers on at first). Can I use this in a 1kva inverter?

Was it not you that criticised guys here for buying ecoflow because of low wh? Now, you know that starting watts is equally important, just as the quality of the inverter.

Your 1kva (800 watts) inverter should be able to start your freezer if your inverter is a top quality one like ecoflow. A quality inverter always has peak watts to accommodate any load that has a high starting watt. For example, a delta 2 that has a running 1800w has a peak of 2700w.

No. 1kva means around 750W (that is with inverter efficiency of 75%). Unless the inverter has high surge that can accommodate devices with high starting power, which I doubt. Check however.

Let's say your inverter somehow conveniently powers up this traditional compressor refrigerator of yours, how many hours will it stay on for with other loads especially from sundown till sunrise? Best thing to do is throw away your refrigerator and buy an inverter refrigerator, an inverter refrigerator is smart, energy efficient and they do start the compressor gradually, unlike your non inverter tech refrigerator, inverter refrigerators do not have a fixed running watts or starting watts, they will consume as low as 40 watts when it is already very cool inside, shut off when set temperature is reached, etc,
Your traditional refrigerator will have crazy start up watts and consume the rated watts for forever even if you have nothing in it and it is already very cool inside, it'll be a constant power draw like your 100 watts incandescent light bulb (after startup), sell it or throw it away.

That's the advice in bold.

I have one traditional freezer that consumes units from PHCN like water too...prepaid units go just dey drop...lol

No need to attach feelings to things...sell it up and buy something more energy efficient. Technology is improving daily and no stay for one place.


*As for the Delta 2. I am happy I went for it and am now enjoying it in peace. I plug it directly like my gas gen to power the whole house.

From 6 pm to around after 10 with still some battery left in 40%. If na petrol I use, na to start thinking of the next money to buy fuel again...what a relief!!

I understand all these but the only advantage I see in all in one solar generators is MOBILITY nothing else makes sense for me.

All complete solar system setup is best for me, you can call me Old school.


I have a 1280wh lifepo battery capacity, with just 250k I can upgrade my capacity to 2.5kwh.

All solar components are easily upgraded and easily replaceable.

Even if I wanna go smart like your ecoflow, I can upgrade my batteries and install smart bms boards on them and even get a smart hybrid inverter with app and Bluetooth functionality.


Your D2 is just 1kwh, you need about 600k to add another 1kwh, that's crazy!!!

Nothing else is upgradable.

When a component gets fried, your generator is done for.

The economy of Nigeria is already enough headache for me, I wouldn't use my money to buy another.

gone through the manual, no surge capacity . Just 680w of peak power.

I'll go with the option of selling the fridge and getting an inverter fridge.

All these "my dick is bigger than yours" medefegedefe...

Baba, every man with his choice abeg. It's expensive, Yes. But I get 5 years warranty.
My Bluetti AC 200Max which I got 1m in last year's BF got fried earlier this year. All it took from me was an email to them. The customer care is world-class. They came to my house to pick it up, and returned it to me in perfect condition. I didn't spend a kobo.

You see that kind of rest and peace, I'll go for it rather than having a headache over a naija version of customer care.

How did it get fried? Was it through PHCN charging or...?

From when it got spoilt then you make a complaint till they came pick it up and return it back took how many days or weeks?

But I could replace a component of mine in under 2 hours, be it battery, inverter or charge controller and continue using it like nothing happened.

Abeg there's nothing you can tell me.

Every mallan and his kettle sha.

An inverter system is way cheaper than this.

This looks nice! Was it homemade? Or is selling like that. Pls share the link of those pictures, need to know more about this cuz is definitely better
