for a 1.5kva inverter,60a Waoh…Thos felicity 1.5 will be putting 20-30a..
It’s obvious majority of the power is going to your freezer and other things(charging and maybe fan).
Just approximately 80-90 watts is going to the battery…
You will need at least one more 535 watts panel,since you can’t find exact that just for 580watts,,I suggest u get 2 sef as we are approaching rainy season..if your system is 24v the controller should handle it effortlessly
Thanks, my system is just 12v but with the little load I am using it to carry, I’m sure one or 2 more panels will solve my problem permanently. Also using grid to charge it while on prepaid is another expense o.

Hello guys, I have a 1.5kVA Haisic inverter with one 535W Jinko bifacial panel installed. The single panel is not generating enough power to fully charge the battery during the day, so I still rely heavily on grid power to top it up.
I want to add another panel, but I can no longer find the exact 535W Jinko bifacial model I bought.
My question is, can I add a different panel (for example, monocrystalline panel) to work together with the existing Jinko bifacial one, or must I use the exact same 535W Jinko bifacial model?
From the spreadsheet online it has a maximum of 1000w PV input and 20-100v voltage input with naxuo cap at 125v and input current is 14a. Hence your best bet is 500-535w panel with maximum of two in series.

I no dey stress the inverter at all. The max load I use is 600w and that's my big blender.
Which blender do you use pls and does it blend really well?

I think it is 1500w PV according to what is written on the inverter

If this is your own then you can sell your old 535watss and buy two 630 watt since the PV input is 18a. The hybrid only allows two panel in series.

Has anyone here patronised Henry Batteries?
The contact lady on WhatsApp is insisting that payment be made before I can go pickup from the warehouse off Oba Akran.

Please can anyone vouch for them? I dey road already.
Even if you waist your time and money go the warehouse the wrong time when Chinese Dey sleep then you go waist your money go back to house because them must approve the payment for head office for china then approve manager to release your goods. Your question should be how good the battery is, it’s very cheap and affordable but quality uncor if to say you Dey near me I for say make you come carry my own bought it last month.

Please does anyone know anything about this battery?
I got 2pcs of this battery, the 280Ah/12v version, I was so curious to see what was inside because of the cheap price, so, I opened the two and converted them to 280Ah/24v with 200A JK Smart BMS and thick cable. I am yet to do the capacity test but it's holding up pretty good so far
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ajabani4allah(m): 10:46pm On May 05
fuckboys:
that inverter is on another level, carry my 1hp LG inverter without stress, also my microwave. Solid inverter.


I wanted to go for the 24v but it was 3.6kva while haisic was 4.2kva and same price.
Haisic 4.2kva is also actually around 3.6kva, the power factor of most of those inverter in the same categories is 0.8

2. When will you do the capacity test?

Just insist that they should give you another bank apart from Wema bank, pls don't pay into Wema bank if you value your time. Wema will always cause delay that may run into days. Without payment confirmation, they won't approve voucher for pick up at their warehouse, and that is logical for them to do as business. Please avoid Wema bank.
As for whether they are legit or not, they are legit!

which one is your spec boss, is it the 150ah 12v? Someone got the same since last year and he said the performance has been good, kindly elaborate on your experience boss

I didn't buy it all at once. I bought the inverter and battery from Valto then ordered for the panel from CDCARE. I was on a tight budget then which is why I went for that panel. I know with time, I will add to it. It was on this forum I learnt that Jinko panel is the best then I saw the 535 watt on Cdcare & ordered for it.

Which one do you recommend I get?
Energymall has 535w panels on their website. You can try asking them. I bought my charge controller and DC breakers from them this week. You can chat their WhatsApp number, very responsive. They seem to be reliable but do your own findings as well

Update
Just chatted them, they said they don't have 535w, only 620w
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Gshems: 7:31am On May 06
I also use a 12v system. 2 535w is fine. My battery gets full everyday. I don't even charge with nepa.

2. When will you do the capacity test?
I was trying to get to the cell probably I would see a bar code I could scan or see where they write the capacity but this was not possible as all the cells were welded and covered up, not the bolt and nut type. I will try the capacity test next weekend. Below is the final built after combining the two metal case by my welder

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Tdoctor(m): 8:54am On May 06
[quote author=ajabani4allah post=139320661][/quote]Thanks bro. Have you done a capacity test? That'll be interesting.
I'm asking because I once bought a high-end MPPT, only to find out a much cheaper one had almost the same functions.
I want to balance between cost and performance. I'll go for this battery, if it'll need just a few tweaks for better performance.

I they wonder how battery take they deplete to 0% and battery won't wake, is the internal bms only for balancing ? all this cheap substandard battery, una they laugh me here when I bought humsienk 12v 314ah lifep04 battery, before I install my hybrid inverter then I was using the battery on sachet inverter were i drain the battery to as low as 10v and the bms nor they short down
BMS allowing you to go that low isn't a sign of a QUALITY BMS though.

Well I think I’ll just go for one more panel then. How many wattage does your panels produce during peak sun? My 1 panel does not give me more than 250 to 300 highest at peak sun. I don’t know if it is the settings or that is just how it is meant to be

Why not OP post the account details here so those familiar with them would confirm.

abi make person go open impersonated account come take am collect money. It's as simple as doing OluWole documents and using to open bank account. it pays to think like those you trying to hide from.

Who knows, even if e post the account details in here, e fit still no be 100% safe

not advisable to discharge a 12v lifepo4 lithium battery below below 11.5v to 12v, talkless of 10v, the bms they used on your battery is terrible bro.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Gshems: 12:41pm On May 06
My two panels, dey give 200w-400w on a cloudy day. But when sun show sometimes I dey hit 1kw

My inverter is set to cut off at 12.0v. That has only happened ones before I got my jinko panels
