Abeg which inverter is 160k for 4000w?
Satchet inverter obviously

Actual inverter capacity is 2000w continuous and 4000w peak

You can combine 580w with 590w because the difference is negligible and they are also from the same brand.
I know, I am just an Oliver twist

Good evening guys. Please i want to know what I'll need to install solar that'll just power 2 fans at night, charging of phones and TV once in a while at night. Suggestion please on the amount of panels, inverter and battery I'll buy. Thanks
Don't even know what to say. Especially since you didn't state your budget.
Also chances are, sooner than later, you would need more load than you currently anticipate

Not sure it's up to that around here though.
Or has the price surge?
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by FEGEITOK: 11:28pm On Nov 03, 2025
Given the current exchange rate of the dollar to the naira, has the price of lithium batteries fallen the way the price of solar panels has fallen?

Whats the ideal (amp) to charge 7500 24v lithium battery? Currently set at 60a, while my inverter has a 100a charging current. My total panel is 3690w
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by munchies:
Felicity 3kva 24v inverter with 4000w, Max v is 500v
140ah 24v lithium battery
How many panels and what capacity is best to charge the battery? 590w panel isn't available.

I’ve been wanting to ask this question for a long time now, infact I’ve been patiently waiting for someone to ask this question all these years 😭. But nobody, not even one person out of you all asked. Meaning I’m probably the only guy using Scahet inverter in this modern and advanced world where AGI and Weak AI is coming for people with jobs that do not require muscle or physicality.

Abeg how many watts per hour do Sachet inverters consume? 😫

Please I need a practical answer not google or AI generated one. Thanks

Why not just check yours?

See me ooo grin grin
True i.e approximately 0.5a for 1600w and 3000w. The 4000w is roughly 0.8a i.e 9.6w.
Why leave what is working well? The difference in load management of the 4000w is heavenly. grin. The difference is in the price too.

Hahaha,

Nice question really but am not sure why the question if you are getting good backup and good use.

I have been using Sachet inverter for close to 4years - 5000W which is 5kw and it's serviced me more than enough at this point without troubling of its self consumption which is tremendously and significantly low with Tubulars until I got 8.3kwh lithium about two months ago and still serving.

Infact, one famous fellow here introduced me to it and he is using precisely same 5000w as we both stress it with microwave, AC, WM, fridge, freezer to it's max with no complain no regrets through and through...

should be about 7amps though I personally don't have Lithium.

Just for knowledge sake my Bro. We are in the same Sachet Inverter club 😎, you and that other guy must be the team captain and vice. I’m probably on loan or something.
Don’t mind all these guys here with their Hybrid, Non-hybrid bla bla bla 😭.

Have you any idea how AI works. na still your responses the computer go spider, come try make sense of which to choose as accurate/reasonable.

Either way, Sachet inverters, like miniature inverters in that first they don't use the traditional transformers (one of the reasons it's not heavy) which is replaced with Transistors, and the likes hence a lot of wastages are reduced.

if you want an inverter that wouldn't consume much, Sachet inverters are the ones you looking for.

My only issue with them is, they are fragile when they go bad; just like a lot of (bluetooth) earPiece are near unrepairAble when they go bad. Used to recommend to people back in the days before the gap between $ and ₦ became so wide.

Now their consummption is often based on the inverter's capacity hence the (idle) consumption of a 1kw inverter differs from 2kw or higher. Either way, could be anywhere from 7-watts and lower or higher BUT most times, it's so negligible you rarely notice it's there. Funny enough, haven't really measured this before

if not for how frugal I can be, na Sachet inverter I suppose dey use BUT me no fit afford to spend over ₦100,000 knowing fully well should anything go wrong, na mostly to replace am.
Funny enough, most people I set it up for, are still using theirs with no problem. Me wey dey install for them, dey fear to use am. Who knows, mayBe na the day I decides to use for mySelf my fear go come TRUE

Why change what works really.

My idea at the time was, if other cost 5times, I could use this and change when needed and honestly this has lasted way beyound my thoughts. Kudus to Nnamdi here...

My funny but serious comment before use then was, "I regret placing order for an item weighing less than a bottling water which obviously will not last" 4years ago.... Lol

Whats your recommendation for satchet inverter in the 3-5kva range.

you obviously are very much aware nott everyOne can afford to use sachet inverter. e get the kind load you go get, even if the sachet inverter na 10KW, you go do yourself enough good to respect yourself EXCEPT your own money na water.


There's always a place for every technology be it nonHybrid, Hybrid, sachet, etc. Issue be say, some people, unto say na only hammer and showMaker nail dem get, dem go try discourage everyOne else while preaching say na their own better. na there me dey vex for them

wow is all I can say. No mind me, na Paranoia dey do people like me.

But have you used in on pumping machine before ?

With Tubulars, I could not use AC, Microwave or WM after sunset.

But as indicated, I started using Lithium from Mr Reed 2months ago, I use Microwave and or AC before leaving for work as early as 530am but have not used the group pumping machine on it considering my security does all that so have had no reason to think in that direction may be I will next weekend..

Ha. Baba, I’m an AI person o. Confirm one. I can train build and deploy AI models. I have publications in that field too.

My comments about other folks is just a joke o. And everybody knows their pocket. As for me that was the recommendation I got for my first system, and since it works just fine, then no P, we move.

I like your explanation about how and why they are low in consumption. Thanks.
