At that point why not just go 24v with a ~1.5kva hybrid and 100aH battery? Cleaner installation and lower current.

Thanks, i bought the growatt 6kw inventer from fouani store

Can you please state what size of battery you got for your setup based on the load you have

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by KudozInteriors(m): 8:26am On Mar 20, 2025

HeavenlyBang:
Are those sound watts or actual power draw?

Assuming the latter, your speakers are probably drawing like 40w typically. Total power including the freezer would be about ~400w.

Your budget should be sufficient.

Thank you so much sir.
This is the speaker wattage sir.

Please what and what do I need to buy and is there any trusted vendor I can get them from?
Thank you once again sir.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Tekenny: 8:37am On Mar 20, 2025

Please can you give a system break down for me on my items below (budgeted system that can maintain efficiency for 4 years minimum) . Please

1 laptop of 50w
3 Phones
Fan of 30w
5 LED bulbs.

From my calculation, I will be using 1240watts (1.24kw) daily approximately

Pls, gurus. For people who go 100% off grid. How do you cope during the rainy season?

For example now, it's 9AM and its drizzling. The charging current is just 1.1a from a 1050w pv.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by litaninja(m): 9:12am On Mar 20, 2025

Oversize your PV array.

It will power a modern freezer.
It all depends on your location/choice of vendors.: Valto--- (battery/cells, balancer, Inverter etc), linnov--- ( battery, cable, mc4, inverter, charger controller). Fouani --- Jinko panels. I can supply you Jinko if Fouani is out of stock.

LifePO4 can do more than 10yrs...

You know how to shed your loads, someone who's going into renewable energy wouldn't, the will like to power everything at once.

I knew nothing about RE when I started and I learnt how to shed my loads cos I did it myself
I educated my wife on how to go about it too.

I hope they see this and drop their prices and contacts too so I can reach out.
How many years do you think those batteries can go?

I’ll reach out to you again if Fouani is out of stock.

This picture attached what an installer sent to me yesterday when I told him the load I wanted to carry.

You cannot guarantee the cc in some hybrids.
A working system and satisfaction is RE.
BUT I doubt if a 1.5kva can power a 120w freezer?

Yes the 100ah 24v is good also not just a fan of all these wanna be hybrids. If at all am upgrading it either growatt or growatt.

In my opinion, 12v 200ah and 24v 100ah are same.

Get someone without fear of height and direct the person like a boss.

I found another installer he said I'd need another panel to add to it. Even after showing him your sketch.

2 standing fans

So true o🤣🤣🤣
But for anything electronics, I dey like leave am for professionals to avoid ‘had I known’

Two other info I need from you sir.

How many years should I expect the battery to last?
Also, how many hours should I expect the system to last when the sun is off, assuming I have all the appliances on at the same time (though I wouldn’t do that)

Unless the ventilation in a building is terribly bad, fans hard turn during raining season or wost case at lowest speed.

Yeah. Music might be played from morning till night. The studio is like a home studio and the producer lives there.

We do night productions sometimes too
But we might not be using the speakers always. We can use headset sometimes or another smaller speaker of 60 watts sometimes.

So, what and what do I need to change in the list you wrote earlier sir?

It's a 12v system. And you know how limited they can be.

For example, the PowMr cc that I'm using can only take 720w and 80v max on 12v.

1050w is already oversized, with about 77v.
