2.5kva inverter 24v

Plus

2.5kwh battery

Used

700k

V.I Lagos
This used unit is still available for sale at 600k which is a deal for anyone looking for medium power that is sustainable for 5 years.

How can I sell my dead 12v BattlleBorn batteries?

Some of them have only 8ah left in them, 1 or 2 seem completely dead, and the last 2 have about 60-90ah in them, so not quite dead.

Wondering if I should take the completely dead ones to guys that buy car batteries

They’d probably price 15k even they have a BMS in them, chai

Hello bosses in the house. I wish to get a lithium battery tomorrow and I'm stuck between taico brand and the lvtopsun brand. Kindly advise which is better and which communicates with the Firman inverter. Thanks
The Taico doesn’t show cycle count like the other batteries though, but I have drained it totally and gotten the full ah count stated

Good day house,
Please who have installed genex inverter with felicity lthium before,
I instslled it and the inverter does not communicate with the battery,
Any advice or guide please
Communicate with the lan cable? Or just doesn’t sense battery voltage? If the latter, make sure the circuit breaker is ON

Are you selling the inverter only? Battery not needed.

Hi guys!

This SRNE 10kva inverter has kept my battery charge stuck at 53.2v. That's far from full. There are 6kwh solar panels connected to it. But right now in hot sun, only the sun is carrying the load of the building (as set by user), and battery isn't discharging as we can see on the inverter.

My first guess was the float was set to 53.2v and that's why its like this.

Entering the settings, battery type is set to Li4. I changed it to USER and set bulk and float to 56.0v (thats my personal setting for all my LFP). Yet, nothing changed. Inverter still only getting the sun it needs to run the house and not charging the battery to set 56.0v.

Settings is such that only solar panels runs all loads.
Charging source is set to solar too. Though there's NEPA, the inverter is set to ignore it.

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

Battery is cworth 20kwh.

Need help for who understands this SRNE behavior

If you haven't done your installation, i will strongly suggest going for only 9 panel for those to be used in series.

If case 10 is to be used, say 5 panels in series and then have them parallel; these arrangements could likely damage the inbuilt MPPT if the Isc is more than that of the inverter's MPPT.

The best you should do is watch out! BTW, if you need a quote and installation with every bell and whistle that's going to keep your investment safe, be sure to reach out to me via contact in bio.

Good day guys, I wanna install 10 585w jinko panels and a growatt 5kva inverter plus a growatt hope 5kwh battery. What should I budget for installation and accessories? I’m getting crazy quotes. Thanks
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by olopan(m): 4:30pm On Jul 18, 2025
Do a complete system reset to reboot your new setting with startup and see if the battery will accept the charge. Also to note is that if your current is high, it may be rejected, so watch out for that too.

Can you check the individual voltage of the cells in your battery bank ? One of the cells getting to 3.65v before the others wil also stop charging

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Nobody: 5:12pm On Jul 18, 2025
Good day Guys,

These are my user-defined settings for my LiPo4 battery in my WPM controller:
Rcv (Recovery Charging Voltage) 14.2V
Scv (Constant Charging Voltage) 14.3V
LVD (Low voltage Disconnect) 12.0V
LVR (Low voltage reconnect) 13.7



Pls why is it that once my battery is full, it starts moving from 14.3V to different volts and never below 13.1V . This keeps repeating itself over and over again. Meaning that the controller may be recharging my battery full in a repeating cycle which may likely affect my system in the long run.


Pls is this normal or is my settings not good? Or am I damaging the battery?

Also
There is an uneditable settings that reads “User 1” and is for LiPo4 battery too, but this one stops charging the system once the battery is full. Whereas, I just want it to keep my battery afloat at 13.6V to 13.7V since it’s running load and not just stop charging it since there is still sun.

Pls what am I to do?

Ahh. Wahala !
If current was high why did the inverter accept the panels without error msg? All these top brands and their wahala. I could've been very happy with my felicity oh.

Thanks a lot for the ideas. Will try tomorrow when next sun comes up

Will check that tomorrow. I'm reading from the manual and that's a possible issue. Only that it's setting ranges from 44v-54v. Why will a full level stop at 54 which is low?

Will check tomorrow sha
