You said No AC, no Heat Pumps, just Fridge Freezer and other regular appliances that wont pass 4KW… So why are you looking at 11KW and 12KW inverters. Have you heard of something called idle power consumption of inverters before? The bigger your inverter, the higher the idle power consumption(meaning you will waste more of your battery). If your load is not more than 4KW, just buy Growatt SPF 5000ES from Fouani. If your load increases above 4000W in the future, you can buy a second SPF5000 as it allows you to do parallel connection

I hope this installation is for yourself and not for a client sha, cos when this inverter wahala starts, omo!

1. This nonsense inverter is extremely loud whether my load is 10W or 1000w. It is screaming in my ear all day. Very terrible extremely loud fans. 2. I got the 2kva own, once my load passes 1300w, the baba goes off immediately. Even at 0.8power coefficient, it should be able to power loads up to 1600w. I am wondering why they called it 2kva when it clearly cannot handle more than 1300w load 3. All of a sudden it doesn’t charge my battery more than 15A. I have done all the necessary settings. It seem to be misreading my battery voltage. Only when my battery is extremely low that it starts charging. Once my battery don reach 30% like this, it believes the battery is full and stops charging. Thank God I am only using it as a backup. Sako batteries are said to be good, but you see this their inverters, you are on your own

My budget is 400k for a hybrid inverter 5kva 48v. Originally my installer quoted me 395k for a 5kva 48v felicity hybrid inverter but if just been worried because it's high frequency. I also got information from someone who told me to try blue power inverter that it's hybrid transformer based but I don't know anything about the product

most people are novice to this,your inverter should match your consumption power if not you are wasting power

I bought this Sako 12v 1kva inverter today.
What influenced my decision is the hope that I’d use its 40a ac charger to charge my a lifepo4 battery. I didn’t want a modular setup where I’d buy inverter , controller, and ac charger separately.

Now, I unboxed it, checked the manual, and saw this: (pics attached)

Does it mean I can’t charge a 100ah 12v lifepo4 battery with it?

Cause that’s the main point of me buying this inverter, and I’m already regretting the purchase.

Sako should have indicated this on the carton and not tuck it away in the manual.

AinsSama:
Of course you can. The part of the pics you sent is addressing Lead Acid battery charging and it also clearly shows the 40A (max) AC charging you speak of which is the reason you bought it in the first place so no worries there.

I use cworth battery and growatt inverter,so I don't experience any horrible sound but all I can say is that cworth battery dey deliver wella 😁

Drgreatone:
395k for 5kva Felicity hybrid sounds suspicious!

justasitis:
I won’t advise you to use this to charge your battery If your LiFePo4 battery doesn’t have a smart bms to enable you monitor and manage the charging, as it could damage your battery cells in the long run.

See me thinking Iv hit jackpot. Any ideas what the real cost of a 5kva 48v felicity high frequency inverter is

Pnutmillionaire:
Wow.
So it just shows 0% but still works

Trippledots:
What brand is this, and how long has it been in service?

Drgreatone:
You dont have anything to worry about. Just put ur battery type to user and then set the bulk and float voltage to what u want

Penuelseun:
If your battery's change settings cannot be edited, you can use the AGM battery option as that setting will also work for lifepo4

Drgreatone:
Late to this discuss but I'd say from personal experience, the reason ur inverter wont carry a 1.3kw load may be cause of ur battery. Had the sms variant and my battery's bms of 100amps limited it.
U may have an issue with ur charging settings, u sud call ur installer to check and if it doesn't work, use ur warranty. They have a better customer care than most of the other chinese makes

HeavenlyBang:
If it's the 5kva hybrid, the last time I got a quote from Felicity it was around 1m. That was a while ago sha

samnaija:
Felicity 5kva inverter is not up to 1m....check your quote again.

Greetings.


Please I just added 4 additional panel of 615w to my old 4 pieces of 615w and then changed the charged controller to 120.

I am using 5kva felicity inverter and 8.5 lithium battery

Kindly see the error code on the image as attached

What is the likely cause and solution

Mind you the battery is 100% charged now as we speak as the error 4 comes and go off at interval

What's your battery voltage reading at the time this error shows up?
