I just bought a techfine 7.5kva and it works smoothly except for the fact that the fan keeps running nonstop. My previous inverter automatically regulates the on and off the fan so I'm wondering if it's a normal thing for this new inverter to run the fan continuously? Any input will be appreciated house

You can either use a router with Ethernet cable hardwired or for long distance line of site CPE bridging- buy two outdoor wireless bridging equipment with router for long distance wireless extension.

Outdoor wireless:

Thanks very much chief.

Knew I will always count on you guys

Just coupling 4 to 16 cells with bolts and nuts is super less stressful compared to welding lithium ion cells of hundreds.

exactly if they can understand that shape or size doesnt have to be 18650 of 2000-3500 mah always. Go for bigger cells of around 50 AH and finish the job in 10 minutes. Fewer chances of cell failure that will necessitate taking the pack apart to regroup it again. What we embrace and glorify here as DIY is largely a waste of time.
Hobby or passion does justify waste of time. Time itself is a resource. The cost of gum alone ti glue 400 cells is scary.

Waste of time to you and you only.
Funny guy.
Stay there while Valto and Mrreed are making cool cash via diy. You dey here dey talk cost of gum. This shows u know nothing about diy. Something you have not even tried out. Relax man.

People value things differently. I'm sure there are services you pay others to render for you, so what's the issue if some people don't think building batteries themselves is worth the effort?

Do you sew your own clothes? Fix your car yourself? Do your own masonry?

The response was to him only. What else?
Yes, I fix my car myself. He should not generalise sth as such bro. That was falasy of generalisation.

A lot of people don't understand cost of DIYing batteries can not be cheaper than buying from the likes of @valto except you source the same grade of batteries they use for Free or dirt cheap price OR the likes of @Valto gets unreasonably greedy.

Come to think of it, you got to import those batteries; compare importing less than 300 pcs vs importing above 1,000 pcs. Those whose gone that route knows you pay lower as quantity of order increases. You still got to pay for shipping and other things.
if you ordering just small quantity, you end up paying more as irrespective of quantity, there are minimum some costs that must be covered. Those buying bulk can easily spread those costs.

Okay Let's say you decides buying from within the country, it's same thing because the seller, except He/She stole them, would want to and have to make profit from the sale.

And buying just the cells ain't the only thing Ooo, you still got to purchase other things hence same cycle repeats.

At end of the day, One got to know what they're doing to really say if going the DIY route would be cheaper or not. Except your aim is to be sure you know the quality of what's inside.

Chinese lithium battery market is crazy.

Loads of shady deals going on there.

If you have a good supplier hold am tight.

The rabbit hole is sure very deep.

My guy bought 250 pieces of 100AH supposedly new cells. Cells arrive and it's used cells with a new cell wrap. Supplier is saying they are not aware. Case still ongoing.

DIY is still king. Can't have it any other way.

But the cost of each will say a lot.

This is bad and painful.
But can you really fight this out successfully?
Distance/cost of shipping alone is discouraging.

They are trying to make it good. Like reship some numbers of grade A. Discount on future purchase. This may be a mistake. At the moment my guy can't tell. Just wants some grade A battery to be shipped to him. He will try to sell this one as B and take a loss. Doing business no easy.

Exactly!
No matter how there will still be profit.
If you can get up to 90/95ah on each...
But do we really need grade A for home energy storage?

A rabbit hole it is and I am sure he has learnt a few things from it.
Sellers with no reputation can do this if they sense naivety.
There is also possibility of honest mistake too. Most of those sellers with Shenzhen addresses share warehouse with other sellers in Dongguan.
Many of them will probably forward your shipping Mark to actual stock owners to ship on their behalf .

If after random test, the cells manage to pull full capacity, alhamdulillah.

you just put the nail on the coffin. At least na used Cells, probably still Okay to some extent. Make e try buy those ones with super crazy amp ratings.
Make una leave work for those in the field, IT ain't for everyOne.

Inverters such as this could easily build up heat, especially when used close to it's rating. The Fan is there to cool things down. Don't be quick to say you utilizing less than 50% of it's capacity - a lot of them are overrated same way a lot of generators are overrated hence a 3.5KVA generator might actually be just 2KVA

Another is, mayBe it's fan was configured to run continuously - check to see if there's a setting for that.

Another is, ensure said inverter is in an airy place else it would easily generate heat that would make the fan keep blowing. Also check it's vents to ensure they're not clogged.

Another is, You could try running it with just the light bulbs and see if the Fan goes off after a while; if it does go off, try increasing the loads gradually till you spot the stage where the Fan starts blowing continuously.

Another is, ...

AnaCheks:
Please do we have any good installer in Anambra State?

Kindly do let me know if you don't get anyOne so we discuss

O boy, this your new moniker get as e be oo
From "contease" to "fakeisfake"

Anyway, congratulations my brother. Indeed, you have come a long way, and you deserve your big success.
Welcome to the club of energy sufficiency.
It's been a while I visited the thread but make no mistake, SOLAR lives on.
I have quite a lot to offload on here but I will take my time to do so.
Once again, BIG UP!

The SUN indeed is the answer!!!

Fakeisfake:
I want to express great appreciation to everyone who have supported my journey to power sufficiency.

As being said here, "na person wey get sense dey use inverter" lol. Years back, I started with 2 then 4 and then 6 pcs of car batteries including my car battery and the others from my "Kazeem"lol and a MSW inverter then Tubular Batteries...

Yesterday I journeed further with an 8kwh 25.6v pack from Mr Reed. I must say, even when I could not see or touch his sample earlier sent to a client of his in my visinity, Port Harcourt, I kept faith and gave him the benefit of doubt.

After 2days,i got my pack from Kaduna to port harcourt via waybill and I can say, it feels great.

To Georged1, Trippledot, Nnamdi, Mr Reed and one other moniker I can't remember now, really, you guys are more human than humble, just my choice of words here.

I highly appreciate all of you. I pick my phone, call all the names above at will and it's always almost unending conversation. TRIPPLEDOT, REED, Georged1. How do I appreciate you guys. Now friends for life I must say.

Mr CuteMaro, thanks for your last words to me against all odds and or fear. I understand and can relate when you think I am new on the page so not sure. I lost control of my old account of 2006 recently so no worries brother. I can relate. ...

Please let's not hesitate to patronize Mr Reed. His humility, willing to explain to the simplest of details is out of the normal Nigeria business person. He takes, atleast my call just anytime at will calling me Oga, bros, I am no be Oga just as struggling fellow as you.. Lol thank you for your commitment, sincerity, dedication, will to go far out to support when reached out to also as confirmed from one of the names mentioned above. Thank you to everyone for the ideas, knowledge sharing.

Incomplete story!
How much did he buy the cells cause 100ah are not cheap! Share pictures if possible. Cause when we buy the Seller send Pictures and videos even before they ship! Or was it a case of they sent different battery from what they showed him?

Cause this Boss, Give us update on your Batteries na..

They didn't share picture before shipping. But they shared picture before he paid.

Seller has agreed to a refund

My bro I've seen things in Chinese importation- but I've never taken a loss. Most of the time I don't just bother to share some experience here as I'm busy with life offline

That market is wide.. I am sure ur friend didnt consider alot of factors before using that particular seller...

hardly would such information be shared; abi you want make people blame them ?

if na offline now, I for give dem benefit of doubt unto say e possible to pay normal price for nonsense BUT so long it's online, we know how far even when you choose to keep mute.

But then again, e possible make your dealer ship good order for you, and either out of error or through dubious means by intermediaries, you end up loosing your product(s)

ask4bk:
Exactly what i said.
And i bought 3 of this for a client last year. Even paid 4m for one 😭😭. Just seeing their backup i didn't even need to open inside to know that the cells are undersized.
I regret buying it for them. Hope they can still do like 5-7 years them though.

It's actually terrible. I like cworth inverters, but these battery reviews are bad.

Funny enough I addressed these capacity issues with one of their marketers showing him proof from here, and be blankly told me that there's nothing wrong with their battery.

Pathetic.

Hotdiamond:
interesting and educating thread i must say. kudos guys.

which set would you guys suggest for me
1 130W fridge
1 43 inch tv
1 250W soundbar
6 light points
2 standing fans
1 PS4
2 laptops and a phone
i currently stay in a place where there is epileptic electricity.
plus i dont stay in a place for long due to the nature of my work.

i was looking at the ecoflow delta series. i dont know if it will suffice.

1.5kva hybrid
3.6kwh LFP
2kwp solar

It can be installed on a board so it's semi mobile.

maxinvile:
I currently run a patent medicine shop and I’m considering installing a backup power system. I’ve researched ecoflow power stations and I’m interested in the ecoflow DELTA 2 paired with a 600 W Jinko solar panel. Alternatively, I’ve been advised to consider a conventional inverter system with tubular batteries. Please recommend the option that best balances cost and durability. My typical load includes a 200 W refrigerator, two ceiling fans, one laptop, two POS terminals, eight energy-saving bulbs, three CCTV cameras, and a router.

You are looking at something with 1 or 2 days autonomy. You see that tubular ba, perish that thought.

Then confirm you have enough space for panels.

Oya go and use an app someone here shared to estimate your needs and design.

staticstring:
Thanks so much, can you share the address to their outlet?

They have one not so far from apple junction.

Trippledots:

Why not be specific as not everyOne knows which apart of Nigeria is Called Apple Junction. Even me wey know say e get Apple Junction for around Ago Palace way Okota, Lagos, no even dey sure if that's the one you meant or not.

or mayBe there's even a Junction box called Apple-Junction

I'm sure you didn't expect any other answer other than that

I actually did. Makes no sense to be blindly loyal to a company that really doesn't care about you.

Now I will be having a second thought to any recommendations he gives me, cworth or not.

People should learn that Life continues outside/after a job.
