i have finally completed my own set up, 100ah battery, 1.5kva ups, 40amps suoer charger...... i got 3watts energy saving bulbs here in Portharcourt, i also bought d battery here.
thanks to oga ceejay and every one that is making d thread a success

congratulation
Re: How To Create A Locally Made Inverter With Ease by Calebeslove4u(m): 12:23pm On Jun 07, 2017
my ups is making an odd sound (like; wooooooooooooo....) and i dont understand why. it started last night. but if i add more load, say i put on my 65w fan, d sound will reduce a bit.
please gurusin d house, any one with an idea of what d problem may be?

Dude its likely your ups will soon pack up....dat sound means the transformer inside is weak, or getting bad..hence if u touch the heat sink inside, it will b terribly hot and soon the ic will start to burn one by one...advice get another ups...just had a similar experience

To me the sound is normal,
It means the transformer is at work,
But if you have been using it awhile and the sound don change,
My advise is to get another ups,
And probably install a dc fan inside it to cool am,
Transformer get hot during operation,
And some ups are not properly vented or where you keep am breeze no dey blow am well.
This is why it is also advised to add a dc fan to it,
Make e dey help am cool down

Ups no fit blow bulb at all,
Probably there's something wrong with your connection or the ups is very bad,
Either way,
Get a new one make you for get rest of mind!‎

i was surprised too, i used it for 3 days wit d bulbs alone, i only put on d tv from 8pm to 10pm and it was cool then, it just started dis rubbish recently.

for some reasons, ups and some inverters heats up and make loud sound when the touch is plugged in. always avoid this, try add a fan to the ups as well. get a multimeter to read the output voltage to be sure its not above normal .

ok, i have this APC 650 UPS (390W), can i connect a load of 300w to it? (say 32inch tv,bulbs,and fan)

You can give it a try and tell us,
If it works, good for you,
If it doesn't, the ups would trip off,

There are sometimes I forget to turn off my electric kettle before switching on my bluegate 1.5kva ups,
What happens is that it trips off!
All I do is switch of the kettle and off and on the ups!

Bro, an electrical technician and I have opened it and inspected what could be the cause. A bulging capacitor was clearly visible and we changed it and also one of the resistors. After the changes made, the charger still REFUSED to work. Up till now that I type these texts, the guy is still battling with it even though I have given up. He said he wasn't giving up because he enjoys challenges of such and although I have given up on it, he pleaded that I allow him take a more in-depth look into all components - something tells me he'll never be able to resolve the problem as these chargers are mostly China products designed not to last beyond a year! You need to see the grammatical blunders on the manual, guy, you'll gasp for breath and pass-out. Our posts on this forum is sufficient evidence that they are all shambolic contraptions from mediocre technologies not built with rigor or ruggedness. More than 60% of first generation participants of this thread who successfully built the local inverter set-up (including me) all have the same experience with these chargers.

I'm interested in your suggestion, that we could, on this thread, also focus on exploring alternatives e.g just as we adapted the common office UPS for inverters, we could also start brainstorming on what components of the UPS could be changed to enable it charge higher capacity batteries (as opposed to the 7.5H inbuilt) i.e enabling it through local modifications to charge 100AH and more.




responding to how to increase the charging current of the UPS.
To achieve ds, a lot of components will need replacement like the transformer, the mosfet, resistors, capacitors e.t.c...so achieving ds is almost impossible. The chances of it been possible is <20% for the circuitry config of the UPS

Ok sir, but don't only critique the suggestion, make recommendations. What's the innovative way forward apart from spending hard earned cash to Chincos?

am tired of the 3hours on 21hours off,since 2days now we are in total blackout.....thank God for my solar phone charger which i have been using to charge phone and other gadgets..but the charger is a bit slow though,and am thinking if I can connect a 12 volt 1ah car charger to it....so here's the plan ......
2x 5.2 volt 200ma solar phone charger
1 12volt 1ah car charger
cigarette lighter
2 5.2volt solar phone charger to be connected in series to make it 10.4 volt then connect the cigarette lighter to the solar phone charger, follow by the car charger.....
pls gurus in tha house will it work?

Check the voltage tolerance/variable for the charger .

I'm aware of most 12v system,
Has tolerance from 10.5 to 14.5v
And ac current from 180 - 265v

So my advise is to check it tolerance first for each appliance,

I have power share two 12v dc fan to a 24v supply,

To my understanding,
If your charger meet the acceptable voltage range then it should work fine,

Cheers!

Dear gurus,

I want to buy deep cycle batteries but am confused on which 2 buy gel or AGM batteries.. i want to make use of a hybrid inverter with inbuilt pwm charger....some say mppt is better but expensive..

how do i go about selecting this batteries for use and which manufacturer will u recommend. I have fullriver in mind... I dont want to buy battery next year again.the market is being flooded daily with junks from china and indian manufacturers (battery/inverters).

thanks the charger do accept 9volt-24 volt....and pls how about the Ah....will the Ah still be 1AH or less

You will end up getting 10.4v, 200ma from the two panels. I will argue that you're better off using the two panels in parallel and charging your battery with it steady. That way you will get 5.2v, 400ma which MAY just end up charging your battery faster than a 10.4v 200ma system.

Be open to trying both and sticking with what works better. Cheers

buy agm, gel batteries are very sensitive to high voltage . unless u can adjust the voltage to 13.0v for float
