SAFETY TIP!

Tubular batteries maintenance cost is relatively high especially when ageing. You must buy batteries with a gallon of distilled water unlike sealed maintenance free battery . If you don't maintain your tubular batteries, it's prone to premature failure . Don't install these batteries in busy walkways area or closed non breath areas as hydrogen gas is hazardous & can cause fire .

Note: Install all flooded batteries with fireball - fire protection materials

Tubular / flooded deep cycle battery maintenance distilled water & electrolytes now available with free gallons!

Distilled water 1L (12 in pack) ... 5,000

So I had my 8s1p array changed to 4s2p and acquired a 24V 3KVA Growatt hybrid inverter through @Olopan of Rendezvous Solar, to replace my SMKSOLAR. He got it for me at a price less than those I got elsewhere, and the delivery was swift.

Growatt is notably faster in charging (maybe because it doesn't require minimum input voltage of 120v from pv).


ojeysky:


To your question, from all indication it seem you inverter does not have the float bug? Since that is the case I will set bulk at between 27.6 and .8 while float will remain at 27v.
When you make that settings check the inverter to confirm if it passes the 27v while charging

I set bulk voltage to 27.6 and float at 27.
During charging, it goes up to 27.8, sometimes 28 volts but never above that. When it gets full, the inverter basically stops taking in any power whatsoever. At this point, the pv input reads zero; meter on the battery reads zero amps. These only change when I increase load significantly.

The inverter meanwhile, apparently consumes only little power and this is significant for someone like me with small battery bank. I attempted running my 75W fridge overnight when I was using smksolar, the inverter tripped off before 2am. I have run the same fridge twice overnight and the lowest reading on Growatt is 26.2V.

On the other hand, the load reading on the growatt 24v 3kva inverter is false and the fan, although not too noisy, doesn't stop. Also, the inverter has an app which I have not succeeded in activating.

Is there a separate device with which one can read the input and output parameters?

I'm curious, is Growatt Axpert variant? I think if it is, it's arguably better than the other variants.

Glad to be of help brother.

The way lithium behaves on the growatt is incredible and different from Lead based batteries, the battery stops taking charge all together.

I believe it's was originally based on Expert variants but they did in house designed and changed things to suit them ....as no float bug or whatsoever for now .... All installation done with growatt is performing brilliantly with no issue So far.

Finally I found a Video that clarify my fears for Lifepo4 battery..

You cannot Float Lifepo4, if controller sends current at Float voltage then it's not compatible with Lifepo4, just disconnect and find a better controller or Inverter

Holding a simple incandescent bulb in line as you make the final inverter to battery connection also works to smooth out the inrush current required by the inverter internals and prevent any sparks

.....use a simple incandescent bulb in line as I am about to connect the negative inverter cable. We always connect positive cable first. The bulbs are cheaply available and work just as a beefy resistor to subdue any sparks. I have also heard a diode could work but never tried one.



Thanks for this. I have always wondered what else could serve as a cheaper and readily available alternative.

Bros, increase your intake of eba, 330w is about 23kg 450w panel about 27kg cool

Bro I won't lie o. In an installation I did for personal use, after the second trip up the ladder with a 330w panel, I was panting and a little exhausted. My own weight is a couple of kg above twice the weight of the 450w. grin

I have decided that in any other personal installs going forward, I will hire the services of professional climbers and probably heavyset type that will do that wahala of carrying it to the roof.

I've had this scenario (LVD) kill an inverter before. Attached is a picture of the inverter. Inverter screen went blank and unresponsive. It was quite strange that a battery disconnect by a BMS should kill an inverter but here we are.

Then maybe it's best we don't let the BMS do the LVD. That job should be left to an external add-on device or to the inverter if it can be programmed.

On some their party installs that I supervised, I've been called on two occasions where the LFP went totally down and the voltage meter would not even display nada. Turned out the BMS disconnect occured. Solar power will not wake up the BMS neither did PHCN input via LFP charger. So I had to connect similar battery in parallel to wake it up.

The inverters were BTS 1050kva and load did not exceed 50 watts both occasion. They did not take a hit. So I suppose the negative impact of the BMS tripping on the inverter could also have to do with the extent of load when the disconnect happened.

But that KEYE name sha, is it a DEYE variant? cheesy

Valto:
beware! most them are modified sine wave. considering the 2-3months wait, why not purchase in naija.

All inverters I have for personal use in recent times are PSW purchased from AliExpress. And yes, they all have low no-load consumption. There is this particular brand from a seller where I have purchased 4 units (3 units 4000w peak and 1 unit 1000w peak). Delivery is usually in 2 weeks with UPS shipping.

One of the 4000w peak failed after the third day apparently because the yeye man did all sorts of experimenting with and abusing the inverter - against technical advice - including placing a pressing iron on it. I complained to the seller (I avoided the abuse part) and he offered to send a replacement at half the price, since I complained it would be impossible to ship the faulty one back to him.

One of the 4000w have been in operation for 1 year, 1000w in operation for 10 months and the latest 4000w has served for 1 month.

The faulty 4000w inverter does not show a single component damage, no burns, no smells, nothing. It just wouldn't turn on. I therefore believe it can still work. So if anyone here has the gift of reviving inverters, please.

Keye could be anything grin

Yeah, solar power or the inverter charger was unable to wake up the BMS. Load when disconnect happened is just approximately 1.2KW. The Keye inverter was rated for 5KW and has been doing well without issues on lead acid battery.
