please I need input. My sister is trying to set up a phone charging business. Her budget is 700k and she needs a lithium batteries for peace of mind. Abeg how do we go about achieving this

Since you have thrown more light on your use case + limitations, the below should work bettter and cheaper. Have added Lithium battery now since it's more of a Morning till early evening operation; unlike most that close around 9 or 10pm and later.

2pcs b]USEd[/b] 350w Solar panels @ 40,000 naira per panel = 080,000
1pcs USEd 12v 200Ah battery = 150,000

OR

12v 100Ah Lithium based battery = 200,000

12v 2kva or 3kva (sachet) inverter = 150,000
half Bundle of Made in Nigeria Cable = 009,000
1pcs DC surge protector = 009,000
1pcs Circuit breaker = 007,000
1pcs b]USEd[/b] 40A / 60A MPPT charge controller = 050,000
installation = DiY + disturb those that allow you to.

NB:
1. The charge controller is only required if the inverter is not hybrid.
3. You need either leadAcid or Lithium battery, not both.
4. the 100Ah lithium battery, though small in capacity should work since operation is mostly during the day + while She's going home, could go with the battery if She can carry it or keep it in Shop or building of another person that's more secure. This should be done daily except the area is secure enough that such low level thieves are not much an issue.

Since usage is mainly for day time and on your strict budget, consider this:

* 12v 3000w (1500w continuous) pure sine wave sachet Inverter (Contact Valto or IInnov8)

* Powmr 60a Charge controller aluminium body type (contact Iinnov8)

* 2 panels preferably Jinko 525w or 530w,as you said (connection would most likely be in parallel because of voltage limit for 12v system)

* Cworth 12.8v 100ah Battery (contact Dam5reey)

* then use the remaining money to sort out accessories and installation

Cheers.

but 2pcs of 525w would be too big both in space and handling and we don't even know if it's those shops that while you standing, you could somehow see on top the roof.

700k is good enough for this use case.

PowMr 1000w 80A MPPT Hybrid Solar Inverter = 220k
3 units of Africell 200watts = 120k
C Worth 12.8V 1.3kwh battery = 240k
Cables and miscellaneous = 40k

You can run this stuff yourself without needing any installer.

eddycurrent:
My inverter do have some data as per PV array voltage, PV array current, PV array power and load.
But it doesn't log the data it only display instantaneous values only. I cannot view the past events, graph etc.

Ah this is advanced feature na that mostly comes with high end inverters.

Optionally, I think there are third party plug ins that can give you such data too. I'm not completely certain though. Others will give their input.

Pls is there any third party plug in device that monitors the inflow of solar energy from the panel to inveter that can be recommended.... I will like to acquire it and also if possible logs energy supplied by inveter to load over time.....

Seunmuham follow this advice or alternatively,

Get an Itel power tank 1kwh comes with a 500w inverter all in one system for 304k ( inbuilt lithium battery )

1 500w panel at 100k ish.

It's a very good and efficient system. Do more research on tiktok and YouTube.Or a sako 1kw solar Generator with 500w panel.Thats what my friend uses for his phone charging business

You can unplug and move at the end of every business day, but e get small weight sha 😂

I think it will be perfect for phone charging business.

I just collected My first humsienk 314ah 12v lifep04 battery I ordered from jumia today, am ordering another 314ah today, am upgrading from a 12v system with 220ah tabular battery to 24v of two 12v 314ah lifep04 battery and sms 5kva hybrid inverter ☺️

Don't mind those telling you that you wasted money,this particular battery has been on my list of things to buy. They are very good and complete capacity, I wanted to buy the 12v 640ah 250a(BMS) version but it's not on jumia right now. Just go to YouTube and watch review of this battery you will smile.

Don't know about "jcns inverter"

2pcs of 260w solar panels is enough BUT would suggest you instead buy 2pcs of 350w or 400w solar panels. The price different might not even be more than 5,000 naira sef if buying used.

if possible, would suggest you buy the solar panels USEd. To me, personally, anything brand new solar panel, love the minimum to be 500w else I see it as waste of money.

Also chances of buying fake or adulterated capacity is almost non existent in sizes less than 400w solar panel.

there's something I don't like about inverters where their AC in, AC out, PV in, etc termianls are so small you might have to cut of a lot of wire strands in other to get it to fit in. That's like reducing a 10mm cable to like 4mm. Wonder why they not using the standard connectors.

Yea I know you could use those tubes but have handled a project where the previous installer choose to cut off lots of strands to get them to fit in, rather than use those tubes which even sef...

You can actually use log type called the Pin Log.

I saw your response below. That's may not be fully correct. If you get the appropriate Pin Log for the cable size, you won't need to shred off part of the strands. The "cup" takes the full cable strands while the pin side goes into the right connecting hole/point. Same for the ring type

yea I know but even at that, there's chance of still having to strip off some of the cable.

What I've done on 2 occassions is to use 10mm from PV to breaker, then from breaker I use 2.5mm single core copper to the inverter's PV in.

Did similar for the AC out BUT really, I kinda dislike such hack.

The person who did it before had to cut off lots of strands just to fit them in. Wouldn't blame him much

Dear friend. Honestly I didn't want to write you because I do not know you or the fellow you wrote to.

But may I please advice you if you don't mind, there is nothing wrong being young like we all were at some point. As your post shows you are still young, I should say to you, no need coming to the public to express your experience dealings or young lad attitude. Sure I only read above but not sure what may have transpired btw both of you but learn to stay calm, learn people, public relationships and expressions and move on perticularly in public. You are not sure of the age, capacity, exposure, level of wealth/packaging, education and or status of the other person expecially when behind the keyboard as this. You or him may not be able to address each other hashly physically regardless the anger or style of dealing so I advice you to always look away if style of talk, proposal or volume of value does not tally with you...

Again, I don't know both of you but no need for this last public expression really. Someone already typed above "I miss the days of etc" just after one of your writeup and that means alot.

Meanwhile, congrats on your new purchase and make sure to enjoy same after proper installation...

As per your question, what people are going for now are the energy savers. Qasa or the likes. There is also the ceiling version but not sure now but standing would serve you right if and when placed at the right corner for use

Where person wan see used good tubular batteries

bassdow:
hmm @ 700,000 naira

Let's see what's possible.

Personally, even 500,000 naira is possible BUT you not me, and don't seem like you could do what I could so let's see what's possible for you.

Forget about Lithium batteries due to budget. Don't feel bad, quality LeadAcid batteries still serves you well. Many of us still use them.

4pcs 350w Solar panels @ 40,000 naira per panel = 160,000
2pcs 12v 200Ah batteries @ 150,000 naira per battery = 300,000
24v 3.5kva or 3kva = 150,000
1 Bundle of Made in Nigeria Cable = 018,000
1pcs DC surge protector = 009,000
1pcs Circuit breaker = 007,000
1pcs 40A / 60A charge controller = 056,000
installation = DiY + disturb those that allow you to.

NB:
1. The charge controller is only required if the inverter is not hybrid.
2. The external charge controller should be MPPT
3. Prices of items above, except surge protector and Circuit breaker, are for used ones.
4. If you choose to use sachet inverter, then you save much more money.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Betnomore: 7:20pm On Feb 05

I appreciate your words but first of all assuming I'm one young lad sounds disrespectful. That's just the way I see it, you might not mean it that way. I be family man with 3 kids. You failed to address when @f.u**kboy said he would even block me if he was the one I sent a message. I said earlier in my previous post that I don't want to talk about the matter that it could just be clash of egos but @f.u**kboy out of nowhere just assumed that I'm in the wrong. I asked how will I get the inverter in ikorodu and the guy said rider will bring it which I didn't object to. And I asked him is it pay on delivery or escrow. Next thing, d guy just said I should come down to Alaba to pick it up. Worse worse, he would have said bro I don't do pay on delivery and if I get enough people to vouch for him here, I can decide to proceed. How am I in the wrong for asking for a secure method to safeguard my money to complete the transaction. I have attached our chat so that there won't be any misunderstanding
