No doubt, there will be a great improvement in the energy yield. It’s what i know and understand about hybrid inverters. For you to harvest a good energy yield, your PV must be at least 50% of the Max PV. Once the PV input is adequate enough, your loads will determine how the inverter will pull more energy from the panels with respect to the intensity of the sunlight.
this is so true, I also need to add more panels here, at least hit 250v
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by oloet: 9:15am On Jun 10
You might be right but I disagree, my hybrid is 500v voc but I have 2units of 590w jinko (100v) and I get good yield from them and as much as 1.05kwp in peak sunlight

You sef no lie. I also get up to 1.1kw on 2 535w jinko bifacial

It's this a 12v system?

@justasitis
you also use the grid?
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by oloet: 10:55am On Jun 10
24v system

This is because your inverter is pulling everything it could get from your two panels just to charge your battery and
your location is a contributing factor to the high yield. If you continue to stress your hybrid inverter to charge your battery with those two panels this way, the inbuilt MPPT won’t last long. I also doubt if your panels are actually 590W since they are both generating 100v because even 650w has actual VoC.of about 50v.

Fouani now selling 725w jinko bifacial panel for 192000 , THIEVES😲

.

Original 615 I bought was 150k. If it is original 725w it will be close to that price. Because in January 620 was sold 125k and 725 was sold 155k @ founani store. Note many jinko you see 725 at cheap price are relabeled. If you fact check it with the datasheet it will not correlate.

How much be gas per kg now?

25k should be able to get you 10Kg cooking gas. We, team infrared/induction cookers have escaped that gas ‘palava’.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Gshems: 4:54pm On Jun 10
Induction cooker from cost too. I no see Dayo

Please I packed this Type lifepo4 blue battery 12v 48w for over 4 months and travelled. Now it won't pick up or come on.


When I use nepa it picks up, but immediately NEPA goes off it goes off like TV.


When I tried connecting to solar it doesn't bring light at all.


How do I revive it please.

it's dead, battery idle drain killed it.


I'm sure maybe you didn't recharge it to at least 50% before you traveled

It was fully charged before I traveled.

No way to bring it on?

so, 9yrs ago to the day, i installed and commissioned my protek solar water heater.
for those who were on the thread back then, recall my review after 1yr on may 17th 2018.

it has really been a bittersweet experience and finally in march of this year i decided to bite the bullet and do an outright system replacement.
this is coming 6yrs short of the promised 15yr lifespan of the solar water heater.

did it serve its purpose? will i do it all over again? the answer is a resounding yes! but not with protek, which happened to be only a white
label product manufactured in china without after sales support.
Thank you for your post. Please I need some advice and clarifications on a new installations based on your experiences. What back-up do you have for rainy days pls? Does your systems use auxiliary/backup electric heaters?

so sorry bro, I pray it is not one of this China batteries that they do not honour warranty claims or provide support, normal a Lifepo4 battery full charged 4 month ago shouldnt die like this.

Or perhaps they used cells that were closed to end of life to packaged them in a new box with their brand, bassdow and other guru, please any suggestion to help this brother

Connect it directly to your solar panel for a few minutes.

That price is fucking outrageous,their last available stock before this current stock was 168k,how come they jumped to 192k.
That could be because the demand of that 725w panel is high. They intentionally inflated the price to avoid quick sold out and maximise profit.

if you can bypass the bms and connect the cells individually directly to a 3.5v charger and maybe it should wake some.

You need to confirm the form factor of the cells used--- prismatic or cylindrical. Check if it has a bms too. Do these and revert.

you might need external charger.. does it have Bluetooth app?
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by oloet: 8:06pm On Jun 10
Nothing is going to happen to the mppt because no parameter was exceeded... the panels are original. It is jinko 590w monofacial.

It's cylinderical

Ok brother, how long have you been using the hybrid inverter.

Then he will need to dismantle the pack to extract few good ones available. The longer the pack stays at this stage the worst it becomes.
Least device needed - voltmeter.

may have to manually wake it up. The process depends on the type of cell, BMS, etc. Worst case, might have to temporarily byPass the BMS to boost up the cells / battery.

If you not comfortable doing such things, kukuma outsource to those who can to avoid complicating things BUT if patient and have th time, could stick here make we see how we fit take direct you.

That battery probably stayed long without being fully charged or there's a problematic cell that sort of discharged the entire bank. Normally self discharge of lithium based batteries is the lowest compared to tohers BUT why this happened, can't tell from a distance without having to guess.

Normally, Founai's price is always very High. na just TRUST people get with them. At least for those who don't know alternate sources, it's better they sepdn more and get what they want.

meanWhile the market is filled with lots of low quality solar panels mostly from China.
