1m budget for just battery, inverter and accessories
Solar panels would be added later

Unfaized:
Try stating your budget. That will enable streamlined recommendations. And also the number of hours you're likely to run your loads.

2.5kwh battery is too small to add a 1hp AC to especially as your initial load is already 800w. Consider a 5kwh battery minimum.

With the above, 2 550w panels cannot consistently give you a full charge for your daily needs. Consider stepping it up.

Please I want to know if there’s anyone here who can harvest the cells from my Haisic 12v 3.6kwh battery and add more batteries for a 280ah 24v configuration using his own box, then tell me how much to pay for it?

Sincerely this is something you can do yourself. Do you have the cells and 8s bms already?

An extra 20k on cables is hardly some groundbreaking extra expense.

Fact is the vast majority of families in Nigeria would be fully satisfied with the setup I listed up there, since it barely costs 1.1m.

Show me a 24v setup with that budget that can outperform it, without buying used hardware.

but my response was exactly to the comment I quoted, not the initially asked question.

2hp inverter likely draws up to 6kw at startup so I'm not sure I could recommend either of those.

Before you buy any inverter, use a clamp meter and measure the AC's starting power first.

Not sure many of the builders here will want to try this out for the following reasons;

1.They would be pairing brand new cells with Haisic cells that no one is sure of the quality.They won't want to take that gamble as you will definitely keep going back to them bv the time the cell imbalance wahala starts in future

2 The cost they will charge might not make much difference from the cost of a new 24v 7.2kw as the difference technically will be the cost of the 4 Haisic cells,which are not Grade A cells for that your particular battery model.

3.You will be better off using your system.like that , go the DIY route or sell off the Haisic for fair price and buy your needed 24v capacity

Hello to everyone.pls is it possible and ok to use a 48v lithium battery with a 24v inverter,a friend said his installer said its ok. he was using 24v 400ah tubular before and just got 48v 5kwh lithium so i thought he will need to change inverter but he said the installers said no need. Appreciate your answers for clarification.

What planet is that installer from?

you’re just right, about 2 of them said same thing you just said.

I’ll just keep using the said system until I’m ready for a full system upgrade.

Perhaps your friend didn't get what the installer was saying but if indeed that is what ehe truly said,he should run from that installer

1st he should delete the so called installs contact and never contact him again.

The 48v (51.2v) lithium battery is 2z the input voltage of the inverter, which will blow out the inverter once he connects the battery to the inverter.

So, NO. The 24v lithium battery won't work with a 24v inverter and shouldn't be attempted.

Hi,

The installer is right, if the installer thought he is not changing the batteries. 24v 400ah tubular means your friend has 4 units of 12v 200ah tubular batteries connected in para-series.

The installer will simply change the battery configuration to all series which will be 48v 200ah. The total energy and usable energy remains the same.

However, I doubt the installer thinks he wants to use the new 48v lithium on 24v inverter. Perhaps your friend didn't explain to him well enough. I don't want to believe an installer in 2025 can make such a blunder.

Cheers

1m budget for just battery, inverter and accessories
Solar panels would be added later

Hi,

Your friend should just go with the colasolar 3.6kwh and see for himself if its okay with his desired usage.

He should however be sure to discuss warranty terms with the supplier.

Its better for him to sell the all in one colar solar when he wants to upgrade to a proper setup than for him to sell the proposed 1m naira system your are suggesting. 1m is not enough for his base loads of 800w and extra 1hp ac.

So it's best you avoid having future issues with your friend and let him do what he wants. Unless of course he is ready to go all out for a 2m to 2.5m set up.

Hi,

The sad part about solar people hardly talk about and for the one's that talk about it, people hardly listen.

It is a known fact, that energy consumption increases after solar installation. A simple online search will show many articles on this fact.

This is why it is recommended to, as a bare minimum start with 24v but if its possible just go 48v all out at once.

Solar is more expensive if you start on 12v or 24v and your energy demand increases so much that you may need 48v for efficiency. And then, if total load requires 36kw peak and above, then a higher voltage is even better. That's why most inverters above 20kw are HV inputs.

Solar can be cheap, if you get it right the first time. It can also be costly and take up more space per kwh if you undersized from the get go.

Cheers

I just don't like when people throw up random info as fact.

You are wrong that vast majority of families (plural), will be okay with that setup.

That your set up in the north can generate max of 5kwh daily, and in the south just average of 2kwh daily. So what do you mean by families (husband wife and kid/kids) will be satisfied with that set up.

Now for facts, the average home consumes 10kwh daily and the figure has been climbing for years as global warming increases the climate temperature.

I think the issue is that you should stop trying to portray solar as cheap, don't have the mindset that there is a budget for everyone no matter how little.

Solar is expensive and rightly so, because most people will even underestimate their consumption from the get go, so you even need to over size from the get go.

Have you seen a woman's energy consumption? Or that of kid's? As a guy, or spinster you can install something as bare as ur energy needs need, but you see your wife/partner and kids, they will never listen and turn on as much as they need each time they need it, just like they are on nepa.

So don't give false facts or false sense of solar is cheap.

40 no of 350w panels

Hi,

I hope you are not the one that suggested 40 units of 350w and that the clients did so themselves.

It's very sad that the client cheaped out on the pvs.

I will never do that.. client has some units of 350w before .. we only added to it
