HeavenlyBang:
Third one.

Whenever you want to increase battery capacity, you can just buy an extra 24v battery and parallel them.

I'ld rather he goes for the second. More storage is what he needs since no solar and probably no light throughout the day except for 2 hours. He can parallel it for longer backup and even and possibly add a medium sized fridge without increasing inverter capacity.

Yes, but then they'd be limited to 12v. Not ideal for future expansion.

Please what is the price of the Bread hybrid inverter 1.5kva.

Got it for ₦215k

Darey00:

Thanks.
Please does it support 24 v system

The official SE price for that RCCB is now 76,465.91 NGN. Resellers will add a markup obviously.

Quality is expensive.

In the next 2 years, it might be 160,000.00

It seems the RCBO is not in demand in Nigeria, at least I'm having difficulty finding it.

To get the best of both worlds combine the RCCB with an MCB such as the Acti9 iC60H 2P 63A C Miniature Circuit breaker which currently costs 31,022.73 NGN

I recently came across a very nice document by ABB or USE of ELCB/RCCB and applications.

It is written in simple laymen terms with additional technical information for those interested.

Worth having a look as the safety in electrical installation especially Residential should be the first priority

That one was for battery disconnecting and connecting back when it's full.

This their own seems like a factory defect. I've not really given it a hard thought too. There could be a nifty way to set the system so it doesn't enter that idle mode.

BTW, I learnt not all MPPTs are the same. Some track faster than others. I don't know if it's the tracking that is the issue.

Abeg leave team HYBRID inverter Ooo. Dem think say using a smartPhone as internet Modem go give similar results as using a dedicated internet Modem. Moreover the day that phone get any issue even if na just the screen break, the modem feature go experience oTiLo.

As for that their charging issue, that's easy to debug. One just need be observant.

The biggest panels may not always be the most cost effective. What I do is get the cost per W of each panel and go for the reasonably cheaper option.

Like for cworth, I found out the 420w was the most cost effective.

Thanks for pointing that out. A lot of us don't seem to realize that.

Another is, most (if not all) of these people always suggesting going for largest Solar panel available, wouldn't do same when servicing a client; they rather go for smaller (<=300w) Solar panels even if said client is a banking institution.
Another is, it's actually cheaper cost wise and also easier handling them.

FEGEITOK:
The calculation that helped me decide which panel to buy:
To calculate the ratio of watts to dollars for each solar panel, we'll divide the wattage of the panel by its price.

555-watt solar panel:

555 watts / $166,000 ≈ 0.0033 watts per dollar

600-watt solar panel:

600 watts / $202,000 ≈ 0.0029 watts per dollar

670-watt solar panel:

670 watts / $224,000 ≈ 0.0030 watts per dollar

Comparing the ratios, the 555-watt solar panel offers the highest ratio of watts to dollars, indicating that it provides the most wattage for the money.

Substitute dollars for Naira

Add the cost of freight to the cost of the panel for a more accurate figure

Bassdow take note.

We have gone this route before.

Saying get the biggest panels your money can buy does not discount this metric.

I looked at it when I went for FY instead of Jinko.

Given the inflated Jinko prices, getting the 700w made more economic sense than the 580w Jinkos

Valto:
there is 12v 1.8kwh abd 4.2kwh for shikini money

That price is not shikini money o

Deriy batteries available

I need a fairly used charge controller than can do 48v preferably 80A and above. Hit me up if you have one lying around.

cutefy:
Thanks.
Please does it support 24 v system

Lol no oo, the 24v version is ₦310k

HeavenlyBang:
After some digging, I finally found the right software that communicates with our inverter.

My efforts at reaching out to SRNE have proven futile so far. Usually they send firmware files to those who ask, but I'm still waiting for a reply.

In the meantime, I've taken laws into my own hand and flashed the inverter to V6.64. Still monitoring to see if it fixes the issue, though I don't expect it to if feedback from other owners is anything to go by.

What's the experience so far on this boss

I have a Sunfield CC I was using before going hybrid.

Would you be interested and are you in Lagos

why you come mention only my name ?

meanwhile, you quoting wattage, while leaving out the curdoesn't paint full picture.

Also never said getting Bigger Solar panels is BAD or GOOD. You just need know what you doing. So long you don't try to make it a law.

Once again, Bigger ain't always better - 2 smaller ones fit yield more than a single larger one.

I'm in Ibadan. What is the model and specifications of the CC?

Hello everyone,

My powmr 60A mppt charge controller keeps shutting down when the temperature rises to 60°c. The controller's fan start to work at 45°c and despite augmenting with external fan, the temperature continues to increase till it gets to 60°c when the controller shuts down for like an hour and starts to work again

I initially connected 2 pieces of 530watt jinko panels in series, I reconfigured to parallel, still the same. System is 12v

Kindly help

Thank you

cutefy:
How much is it?

#292k

bassdow:
YES installing an external Charge Controller would allow you exceed 1,600W BUT ensure you go for a Charge Controller with such capacity

Can you make recommendations?

FEGEITOK:
I use both an internal MPPT CC and an external MPPT CC, and when the external MPPT notices the battery is full, it slows down and stops charging or like it happened this afternoon, the breaker between the MPPT and the battery tripped off

Can you make recommendations?

I think the highest the charge controller can take at 12v is 720w, those two jinko panels na overkill
