I think its already in the market. I saw one white type for same capacity by Haisic posted on social media space. Not sure if its same price with the black though.

Good pm house.

Please who knows where I can get this charging module?

Or something similar capable of charging heavy power banks.

Want to buy a few and connect to my DC converter

Thanks

Its available on AliExpress..
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Enyinne(f): 8:25pm On Jun 04, 2025
I bought it and I'm regretting it even though I got it from their accredited store .Fake too much .it doesn't work with half current while my Samsung inverter works perfectly on low current.

please guy, what's your experience with Thermocool Inverter Freezers, Does it freeze and ice liquid like conventional freezers when used with solar.

My current freezer, barely freezer things probably because it's older.

Please, I need your guidance.

I bought something similar, for $2.20, in AliExpress. Mine just have only one type C output. Input voltage 10v to 30v. This charges my phone pretty rapidly. Totally works.

good evening all, i have seen some people complain that inverters makes powerbanks to swell how true is this claim? i was telling a guy who runs a charging center about installing solar in his shop and he pointed this claim too, he showed me some customers who had swollen powerbank as a result of charging with solar.

Buy Scanfrost. I'm biased, I use a Scanfrost. Everyday I fight to break stock and other foodstuff stored inside there. This night I had to put the chicken there in airfryer to be able to cut it.

Got so frustrated with breaking up food, which are frozen, that I ordered an ice pick to help me break up blocks.

Disclaimer: I use a servo AVR. Freezer plus every devices at the house, never sees less than 220V, on NEPA or on inverter. Dunno if that counts.

Solar is different from Solar

I’ve been using an inverter to charge my power bank for many years. None of my power banks have swollen so far.

Swollen power banks are more related to the quality of the battery used to make the power bank or to charging the power bank with an inappropriate charger. A good power bank with a reliable Battery Management System (BMS) should still prevent damage from occurring.

This Haisic battery sha. 40a recommended charging current for 314ah battery?
That's around 0.13C. I no fit o.

You can never go wrong with Scanftost freezer.Had one since around 2011,it got spoilt in 2023 and I replaced with another Scanftost.Superb freezing,!!

Because its inverter doesn’t mean it will compulsorily work with low voltage ok. You should have looked at the power rating before buying it. That is always the same with inverter AC. Not all likes low voltage look at the side or back you will see the voltage requirement

Recommended charge has nothing to do with cell quality.

Charging and discharge is BMS based.

You can use 100A BMS on 280AH cells. You are only limiting the potential power output.

You can also use 200A BMS on 280AH, this will provide more power.

Cworth used same BMS on both their 100ah Cells and 300ah cells, recommend charge current is 50A. Now do the maths

There is always a first time.

It takes three weeks max.

Someone has something similar in Nigeria, try contacting Valto.

Genuine 6mm2 (10AWG) 2-in-one solar cable with free pair of 30A 1500V MC4 connector

Price: 3,600 per genuine meter; 340,000 per roll of 100meters

- TUV-approved real 6mm2 containing exactly 84 (counted) strands of tinned copper. Tinned copper does not rust, turn green or cut off over time due to adverse weather conditions

- Two-layered (black and red) cable sheaths that is thick and treated with irradiation to ensure it doesn't crack, giving you at least 25years of usage

- Cables can be split easily along its spine for more application, manipulation and manoeuvring

- Cables come in genuine measurement of meters. There are numerical markings after each meter measurement, and cables will be cut just in front of this numerical marking to give an exact measurement for each meter

- Minimum order quantity is 15 meters and you will get a free gift of a pair 1500v 30A MC4 connector for every 20 meters you buy

Good morning. I can get those for you. I have used about 7 different designs of those in the last half decade and can guide you in anyways. I also sell related products. I will upload some teasers in some hours once chanced. Stay tuned.

Can those afripower inverters designed for LA/Tubular batteries be used with a lithium ion phosphate battery?
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Ayomipoe(m): 7:40am On Jun 05, 2025
Yes. However, your BMS needs to be solid because it will typically draw the battery to its low-voltage discharge (LVD) limit. Every time, every day.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by munchies: 8:01am On Jun 05, 2025
A battery that says max charge at 100a, does it mean I have to set 100a on the inverter? It's currently at 60a on the inverter settings. I use a Felicity 3kva and 3.5kw lithium. Bulk and float charge is set already at 28v.
It charges slowly from grid
Please help

Your inverter may not do more than 60A

Also you really don't have to charge your batteries at the maximum recommended current for it to be ok.

Slow charge from grid may be as a result of different factors such as poor input voltage, bad frequency etc. What is the grid charging current?

Ok. It's not really high, ranges between 192v - 198v.

It should drain to 10.5v or lower.
Btw 11 to 12.6v speed is still fair if you are not the very sweaty type.

If you went further to run the fan directly to the battery, speed would be good.
How about the charging, won't it over charge it?

Yes , I use Luminous inverter and I have been fine all along.My Luminous charges to 28.8v v and surprisingly one day my people discharged the battery so much that it was only inverter that cut off and not the battery. I think the Luminous LVD is 21.6v (10.8v)
