Please can someone do a side by side comparison between Mr Reed's batteries and Valto's batteries?Valto lists his 16.8kwh battery at N2.15m, and from what the complainant stated, Mr Reed's similar capacity goes for N1.6m.

I don't care about Bluetooth communication. What would I be missing if I choose Mr Reed's batteries over others?

Pls who here has a neatly used 1.5Kva, 12v Hybrid Inverter for sale? Preferably Haisic..

Metal vs Wooden case,
Breakers (High voltage batteries need breakers)
Communication ports and general aesthetics.

Mrreed has been using metal cases for a long while now. Although the wooden case is cheaper.

Its flawed to you only because u seeing things how u want. Did u read tripledot reply and the client follow up clearly? He was sent pictures before delivery and could have rejected it instantly?
And what makes u judge over how much profit he made? Cos i feel that's what most of u are reacting to and using to make judgement. Did he get ripped? Only because he found out the price later on. I doubt it would have bin an issue if he didnt.
Like i said, better to stay neutral cos this business wasnt conducted here and allow the parties resolve amicably rather than pouring fuel to it. If they go court, na still out of court settlement last last cos even judge no go pass the kind judgement una dey pass here.

jmaine:
Severely flawed reasoning.

1) He lied to his client that LvTopsun was not complete to lure his client into his scheme.

2) He profitted excessively while providing his clent with a product that lacked certain features his preffered choice had..

That is a clear scam . Stop sugar coating it.

How good are sukhig lithium batteries?
I saw a deal of a 12v 200ah 2kw sukhig battery for around 200k, owner said it's less than a year old and it has recipt to back it up
I need a 12v battery so I'm thinking of considering it, and lastly, is there a way to confirm how many Charge cycles it has done

jmaine:
24 Hours later and Valto has ignored the simple question. Okay oo..

this your way of trying to force him respond seems like gasLighting to me

Stop defending scam... Why did he lie to his client that LVTOPSUN wasn't a complete battery to stir him to another product where a hefty profit was waiting for him?

Do you belong to those who feel dodgy business practices are welcome provided profit is made?

And are you trying to imply he did not prey on the ignorance and trust of his client to have an expected end?

Anyway..... Make we face front till further notice.

Have you asked yourself the actual real reason that owner is looking to do away with it

Trippledots:
Alright, cool. Which did you eventually buy and how much?

The same Junctek 100ah. About 100k each with shipping.
Although as the thing reach, FedEx say custom still won collect about 300k before them release am. We Were on a tight deadline so we just pay so we fit move.

bassdow:

Gaslighting does not fit the context at all?

Valto made a claim and I simply asked a question for further clarification. I see nothing wrong in my post.

Others may be interested in his offers and my question may speed their decision making process. How is that gaslighting.

Said he got a new system and he's disposing the old one. I asked which battery he got, he said he got a good deal on some tubular batteirs, like who goes from lithuim to tubular?

Interesting. Ok, thanks.

I still stand by what i said. You only seeing what u want to see and its clear in ur response.

Let's always cultivate the habit of careful examination and evaluation before passing judgement on issues we do not have all the informations on.

INSPECTORMAX:
I need to clarify this important point for accuracy.

My original requirement from the start was a 15kWh battery, specifically LVTOPSUN, which is why I independently confirmed market pricing for the LVTOPSUN 15kWh unit before payment. I did not request a 16kWh factory-assembled battery, nor was pricing for a factory-fitted 16kWh option discussed with me prior to payment.

The discussion around a locally assembled battery arose when I was advised that it would provide “full” usable capacity compared to LVTOPSUN, which informed my decision at the time. My concern remains about whether all material trade-offs were clearly explained before that recommendation.

For accuracy, the image of the battery was shared a day before installation, after full payment had already been made, not earlier in the procurement stage. There was therefore no opportunity for a meaningful review or reconsideration of options at that point.

You are intelligent, but not very smart. You paid for a locally made battery thay you havent even seen a photo/comprehensive video of. You get mind. Ill be clear with what i deduced from your complain
1. You trusted trippledots too much
2. You are not happy u paid 2m, for something you could have gotten for 1.6m
3. More unhappy, it doesnt match your initiall lvtopson choice, in terms of communication, beauty, warranty, whereas u paid same price
4. You feel cheated/deceived after trusting trippledots as per nairaland bigname...

For trippledots.
1. You convinced a client to buy locally fabricated for your selfish reasons
2. You didnt specify there will be no battery communication as opposed to his initial option
3. Youre not a good person, you can make your profits without deceiving a client.
4. I read your comment, and it screamed damage control,
5. U upgraded his wire because u don chop 400k, felt like u should do something good to make u feel good.
Verdict: Return part of his money if you can or Return the battery, and remove a small portion of the refund amount if you can. Or just relax and do nothing. Na your business.
Complainer, if e too vex u say u no dey fit sleep at night, Arrest him, or learn your lesson and move on. Do not trust no man, even if na Guru from nairaland.

And to add to this, Lvtopson is a good and complete brand. Drain/capacity tests have been done by Diy by Ray on tiktok and capacity is very complete. Wonder what evidence trippledots had to discourage a client aside personal gains and deception. May God forgive you. We blame tinubu, but we are worse.

Las Las with all that is happening, I foresee a time where solar industry will be just like electrical wiring industry.

If you are entering solar, you CANNOT afford to be totally ignorant. Many installers DO NOT fear God.
-
I have become somewhat adept with solar, not by choice, but through pain.

1---
>> My first installer gave me an inverter that you could not switch off completely unless you disconnected the battery - with a lot of sparking if you wanted to reconnect it. There was no breaker in the inverter or between the inverter and battery.
>> Moreover, there was no way to disconnect the inverter from the grid. He connected the inverter direct to the grid with no way to switch it off in case a problem occurred or if I wanted to add a voltage regulator or anything to protect the inverter.
>> It seems he did this to maximize profit, without considering me or what troubles I would go through in case of any emergency.

2---
>> I have told the story of my second installer here, who gave me fake panels (producing 220W but rated at 450W).
>> He encouraged me to buy tubular and steered me away from lithium, so he could sell his stock.
>> That event is what broke me, and made me decide to learn about solar.
>> That is how I came here and I have learnt a LOT since then.

3---
>> I do not think I can trust any installer now. Many of them speak softly and kindly and seem helpful, but in their hearts are daggers - thinking ONLY of their profit and not the problems you will encounter when they are gone.
>> Second, many of them are not that knowledgeable. They entered solar work with gra gra and have not done enough research or improved themselves. Some cannot explain KWh, DOD, etc. in lay terms.
>> Now, I think the only thing an installer can do for me is to mount solar panels and do neat wiring, the rest I will do myself. The only time I may need an installer for wiring decisions is if I'm running a configuration >50 KVA. I have done my homework to this point. I'd rather have a problem of my own making than to have an installer rip me off. The rip-off pain is too much.

4---
>> Let installers learn to fear God because many of their clients are depending on them for guidance. Do not deceive them because God will punish you. Installers, fear God! He is real!
>> Let clients read a bit before buying solar, too many wicked installers around. Don't be a victim. However, the irony is that most of us who found this forum did so because we were victims.
>> If you are a solar newbie, ask all your questions here and be patient. Don't rush with any vendor. Even if a person gives a quote from this forum, wait and get other perspectives before proceeding. EVERYTHING in a solar installation can become problematic - inverter, charge controller, batteries, wires, cable lug termination, breakers, panels, earthing, SPD, etc. Read, read, and read. Like I told a friend - anyone who has a solar install, has a power generating station and CANNOT afford to be totally ignorant.

>> May God bless us all as we decide to walk in truth and righteousness this 2026.

My rechargeable fan’s battery is failing, heavenlybangs please how did you go about changing from LA to li-ion/lithium and what has been you experience ?

Mrreed, Valto do you have a build for rechargeable fan users? Mine is the Qasa curvy, 12v7a If I remember correctly.

17.5kwh felicity lithium ion battery available.

he didn't say lvtopsun isn't complete. He said he would get more from 16kwh local battery than what he would get from 15kwh lvtopsun

OgogoroFreak:
he didn't say lvtopsun isn't complete. He said he would get more from 16kwh local battery than what he would get from 15kwh lvtopsun

The aggreived client claim that was not disputed by the accused placed below.

At no point did I request a locally made battery. The decision to move away from LVTOPSUN was based on Trippledots recommendation, where I was advised that LVTOPSUN would not provide a full 15kWh usable capacity, while a locally made alternative would provide a full 15kWh and comparable overall value.

From the quote above.... Did you bother to also pay attention to the clause of "comparable overall value". Even, the 16 kwh won't give one 15 kwh at the recommended 90% DOD...

Apart from the humongous inflated cost of the battery, was that clause met in features and warranty?

Bro, make we leave story abeg..... This should be a lesson to everyone on this thread. One should not be ignorant to the manipulations of service providers.

Please, I have two questions
1. Is the Icell X2 Series Inverter 10 KVA inverter a good buy at 600k used?
2. Has anyone use a Flames Electric 360W solar panel?

Thanks
