Good day people
Please I need answers because I think really don't know much about this
I need a solar setup for just my laptop and phones for at least 12 hours daily, especially for my laptop
What do you suggest I get?
I've seen ones with unbuilt battery and a solar panel, how good is it? And what capacity can I get?
Or should I opt for the one that I'll buy batteries, solar, inverter separate?
Please I need answers my people

Abigai:
I am talking about their efficiency one 300w and 150w×2 panel ie charging capacity...

incogni2o:
This just arrived. Being in the market for a while but went out of stock.

Let me know if you are interested.

ojeysky:
The inbuilt battery is Lithium?

incogni2o:
Yes

ojeysky:
Kindly share spec data page

incogni2o:
400w powering capacity.
Can be used with 100 to 150watt solar panel
Also comes with a car charger.
Chat me up for more inquires.

Again, order fast while stock lasts.

ojeysky:
Have seen it on their website as well, though no information on whether the 120AH battery is LFP or not. Thanks

hello house I have a dilemma concerning my step up, I have a BTS HYBRID INVERTER 1200VA (720W), 2*100Ah GBM DEEP CYCLE (12V,200AH), 2*100W (12V,200WATTS) with DOD of 80% and my average load is between 150-200watts.
if there is good NEPA supply, the backup last average 6-8hrs but if supply is poor the back up reduce drastically to around 3hrs.
I am surprised as I expected it to be charged by the solar panels when the power supply is poor or not available so as to have constant back up time.
my questions goes thus:
what is it that is not right in my step up?
how can I measured the amps from the solar panels?
does anyone have an idea about the efficiency of the GBM battery type and my inverter?
any other suggestions and advice is welcome.
thanks

from my experience i noticed that only mppt controllers can effectively charge LifePo4 batteries. Pwm's dont charge them .

Isn't 150w panel to charge 120ah lithium inadequate especially if used to power appliances simultaneously?
I believe the designers of this product have it in mind to be used as emergency power or for things such as camping when you can have it pre-charged for use. It may also be good for laptop users.

E nor get price? Or is it free Corona palliative, let us know

Abeg put price, for those of use wey no get smartphone to use WhatsApp.

I believe in this link is the inverter you talk about.

https://www.nairaland.com/390522/solar-energy-complement-fta/726#88936520

It charges well when NEPA provides good voltage and charges poorly at low current. If that's the inverter you use, then that implies you have an external charge controller for your solar charging option.

80% DoD is rather pushing it too much. That inverter has selectable switch for 50% and 80% DoD. I suggest you select the 50% in order to ease the usage stress on your batteries.

That being said, you did not mention your solar panel capacity nor give any info on your charge controllers so that people can "audio audit" if it is adequately sized to charge your 200ah 12v batteries.

You will need a clamp meter to measure the current going thru the wires from your solar panel, or through any wires for that matter.

Ur lithium batteries u posted for sale, 200k for 4 thats 12v

I am very interested But money dey yab man.

emyfine08:
Pls house I have 5kva 24v inverter.and I want to use it for load of 3500watt how many battery and solar panels due I need to store it for it to work at least 12hrs.pls I need assistance thanks in advance

bbally:
Oga ceaser, thanks for the response.
the inverter in the link is different from mine.
my solar panels is 2nos of 100watts connected in parallel because my inverter is 12volt system, so my 2nos of 100ah too is connected in parallel.
my inverter has internal cc with 30a or 50a charging options.
the clamp meter I was about to borrow around is 20amp and when I used it was reading 0.2 or something.
attached is the inverter pic and spec sheet.

How many of these panels dey for this limited stock so?

Who has wattmeter/kill a watt for sale?

kiekie1:
This below can also serve as a watt meter but reads in amps .. You simply need to multiply by volts to get your watts ! It's a din rail type which displays volts and amps. It has adjustable user setting for exact ac low& high voltage ,amperage settings"0.5 to 63a" , delay etc
