I have a 2000w inverter and charger.
So I need a battery pack to work with it.
The options I have gotten so far is

1. 12V 104ah lithium ion battery - N185,000
2. 12V 100ah Lifepo4 battery - N203,700

Which is advisable I go for.

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.
Please can you help me list out the one for a 300k budget with no NEPA?

your location and LOADs is what would determine this.
So kindly start by listing out your LOAds and how often you run them. Some people are rarely at home while others are mostly home.

Some people watch Tv everyday YET there are people who haven't switched their Tv on for the past 6-years.

Some people have Tv that are less than 32-inches YEt there are those who can't use anything less than 40-inches.

Some people are only home at Night YET some of us no dey gree comot for house so as to use our houseRent wella.

Some people only need light to charge their phones and see road for house and mayBe make Fan blow dem small, some wanna replicate grid (NEPA / PHCN)

...
....
.....

at end of the day, an your pocket go determine how far.

Then later later, we decide if you testing the waters or not as I except soemone to still come and ask for budget of 50,000 naira or lower which to me, could still be possible.

you dey Agege bread yet dey find something as basic as that. That's like being at Ikeja or worse still close to computer Village YET looking for where they sell gadgets.

Abeg waka ask around. And if you asking to get someOne reliable, that's often times a waste of time as all of us dey (un)Reliable. The taste of the pudding is in the EATing
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bassdow: 10:06am On Feb 20
for those looking to buy used Lithium cells especially those cylinderical ones e.g 18650 , see eh, just go to where they repair laptops, either get those bad laptop batteries for FREE or pay a little token to buy them e.g 150 naira per pack AND a single pack can contain like 8pcs or more.

Most would gladly give you for FREE if it's just 2 or 3pcs.
Additionally, to get much more, tell dem it's for school project. Most times, na Aboki go still come buy them.

Open them up and take what you need.

Most times, you end up with perfectly quality cells where it's just a single cell that rendered the entire pack unUsable.

in fact you could even use the pack to construct things if you're good with thinking. except you're the kind that have outSourced your thinking to daddyGO or the likes.


I come in PiSs

Thanks for replying 🙏


It's 10 bulbs, 1 TV and charging of phones only.

Is it charging personal phones (less than 6 phones) or charging phones as business ?

How many inch Tv and is it flat screen or big nYash or plasma or LCD or LED ? Only matters if it's more than 26-inches else doesn't matter if it's LCD or LED BUT still matters if Plasma or big nYash.

10 light Bulbs (abeg shey na Studio ?)

You seem to have forgotten to include your location. Reason for asking for Location ain't so I take up the job BUT to know if there's a likelihood required things are close to you. You can't compare someone in the Northern part of the country, or even ibadan with another in Lagos or Ogun state.

You appear to be closer to @Valto hence could easily buy things from him including pureSineWave sachet inverter for about 70,000 naira

Solar Panels: A single USEd 400w mono (optionally halfCut) or 2pcs of USEd 350w mono solar panels.

Battery: Lithium or LeadAcid . If buying leadAcid, go for USEd 12v 200AH else go for brand new Lithium battery.

Charge Controller: Budget between 40,000 naira to 80,000 naira for a quality used MPPT charge controller. Go for minimum of 60Amps for future purposes

PV cable: Just use the NEPA wire. That ash colored cable that draws light from NEPA pole directly into your compound. SHould cost around 20,000 naira or more if you go for quality. For your size and budget, Copper is not worth.

installation: come and disturb us more OR stress the person who sold things to you with lots of questions + directions. make dem sef follow work.

I no go tell you to upGrade your Tv but with time, na your tongue go by himSef count ya teeth.

Don't forget, Oga Valto dey delta state.
