are we sure these used batteries are not the source of all this fake batteries flooding
the market nowadays?

they probably buy them off gullible peeps like us, refill them with electrolyte and
re-label them like brand new.

Hmmm... If they are refilled with Electrolyte, what's the probable average number of cycles it can go?
Maybe someone can enlighten us on this

Pls how can I get lightning arrestor? I will like to protect my mppt charge controller against thunder storm. In some month time the raining season will set in. I just want to be sure of the safety of my system.

#1 his pricing on the website is wrong and he does not have a lot of the items. I have purchased items from him. No Issues. He is in Alaba though.

Hello house, I learnt that MTN has upgraded their solar device to accommodate AC appliances.
But on getting there I discovered that the appliance now has a car cigarette lighter device that converts the 12V to 220V. But what I don't understand is this, will the device last and what is the capacity of the device?
Furthermore, will the device consume energy like other DC appliance because I learnt the reason for the upgrade was because Nigerians complained that they can't be buying another set of DC appliances.
Anyone with an info about the Lumos device should please enlighten us.

So yesterday I finished series of updates I have been carrying out on my system. The upgrades include an additional solar panel (250w) to my 240w+240w+220w array. Due to the VOC limitations of my controller .. I had to switch to a series parallel setup. I had to improvise not having an mc4 y connector. Made do with wire joiner which I encased in a ip65 casing to prevent it from the elements.

Test showed about 35% increase in harvest. I was pulling 621w up from 420w (Harmattan had been very hard solar iridiance in Abuja. I project to get close to 850w pick power once the hazy sky is replaced by blue clear skies.)

Anyway.. next thing I upgraded was to replace my Tracer Bn series 30A Controller with a Chinese like for like direct clone of victron energy bluesolar MPPT charger. The clone is made by a company called fangpusun. The new controller is 45A, 150v MPPT. Got it because of the abysmal tracking of the BN tracer. It sometimes take 4 Minutes to find MPP with the bn.. a huge pain on cloudy days... I got the MPPT controll display for the bluesolar Controller, the Direct to USB cable which allows connection with PC. New CC has been a joy. Interestingly I get to update it using victron Energy firmware and Victron connect. Last update , I made was to replace my crudely put together battery monitor with victron Energy BMV 700 battery monitor. Comes with a shunt and display too.

Hope to do a product review on the BMV soon. (Fantastic product.)

obimind1,

what you need is a midnite solar lightning arrestor (midnite solar mnspd-115 115vdc) like this.

among other buying options, you can also contact solar depot:

https://www.solardepotng.com/SDN/product-category/enclosure-electrical-safety/lightning-protection/

(note: what they have on the link is the 300v version which you need for protection of the AC side of your
system. you can also ask them for the 115v version which will better protect your charge controller and
solar panels)

my battery is 24v

Based on my little knowledge 4 × 265W panels should do... making it 1060W in total. Since its already stated in the spec sheet that max PV input Power for the 40A @24V is 1040W, you are in the range as the said 1060W from is rated at STC but in a real life situation, your PV array might not generate up to that due to some constraints.

But I'll leave it to the professionals to give a more concise answer

The renogy cc is actually the rebranded epsolar BN Tracer. You have to check the manual to be sure what the max power it can take.. my advise is to stick with 4 (like the previous comment) just ensure your series string should not be more than 3.. the controller has a limit of 150v

Which is more rugged the renogy or epsolar ?

I thought epsolar is Chinese while the renogy is USA

the screen shots is from the manual, under tech spec, it says maximum solar input power is 1040w for 24v

then it also says Max Pv array power 1560w and Max Pv Voc input as 138v

So I don't get, what's now the total watts this CC can take?

I haven't actually gotten the renogy CC, kinda of settled for this cos it's kinda midrange from all others & it's actually US made

How much did you get your fangpusun, meter inclusive?

did you import it ?

mank1234:


It's rated so because for a 12V system, 260W/12V ~=20A. If it can work with 24V system then you can use 520W of panel. If you go beyond this max panel ratings your system would still work but you're wasting money because the excess power would not be harnessed.

Pls we need more contributions to this issue of limit pose by charge controller rating. In my case, I have a 12V inverter set up and a 30A Epever Tracer charger controller with 3 units of 150watt mono panels. The Max Pv input power is 390watt(12volts) 780watt(24volts) for the cc..... I was tempted to add one more panel even though the Maximum Power current is about 8.5A per panel. I wanted one more panel if 150watt for obvious reasons......bountiful harvest on days with less solar radiation which my supplier gave a nod to but my installer here gave me the scare that I run the risk of blowing up my cc with the extra/over current...... Pls help me out with informed opinion. Thanks

Epsolar is the OEM for most of Renogy controllers. Most Chinese companies also make white labelled rebranded product for anyone with money to pay. Zinox Ipowerplus is actually a rebranded axpert inverter by voltronic.

The controller can take up to 1560w from PV. However you must never exceed the VOC input of 138. I would even advise you don't come close to the it's PMax limits controllers like most electronic work best when used below their recommended limits.

I can't seem to find where it's being sold online, aliexpress doesnt have it

If you haven't gotten that CC then my advise is.. don't get it. The tracer bn series which that cc is based on has an horrendous tracking. It sometimes took mine 4 min to find MPP and recognise load applied. You can get the tracer A series (which has less VOC input limits 100v) but has very good tracking. Those controllers are not made in the US.

I imported the Fangpusun from Aliexpress you can check there. If you have to go for epsolar get their product Renogy warranty reputation is dodgy especially when you use them outside the US.

The max panel you need to achieve the rated output for the controller is 390w. You can stack up to 600w just your output would not exceed the 30A rated out of the controller. The line you should be careful and never try to cross is the max voltage which is 150v for most tracer series and 100v for the tracer A series. Check your cc manual for the absolute maximum PV power it can take which should be close to 1000w am not sure though. It's always good to have your panels properly derated to give you a more realistic output than the STC rating of the panel. The maths I use is PV Pmax x 0.77 from my experience that has given me the realest out put of my pv. .77 represent 77% of panel rated standard test condition PMAX. Hence applied to 450w panel you get 346w. Always good to assume 23% of your panel will be lost to heat, wiring and cc inefficiencies. Your mileage may differ depending on the PV and location.
