Thanks for the intended patronage and recommendation, baba. Konga's algorithm doesn't implement changes immediately. I don fight them tire. I am currently out of stock on the controller and paused the listing. I wonder why people can still see it.

The controllers will be available from next week, but sadly, price will be a little higher, but not as high as Jumia's...lol
Please do let us know when its available.

Secondly, I saw that there are about 3 variant of the 60a Powmr cc. Can you help explain the difference please 🙏
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by sharks776(m): 8:04pm On Jan 07, 2024
Am trying to buy an extra CC just to keep as a spare incase of emergency. I decided to get PowMr 60a charge controller. But am getting to different quotes with huge disparity in terms of price from Jumia and Konga.

I really can't tell the original

This is felicity battery as well using old cells
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by sharks776(m): 3:47pm On Jan 05, 2024
Something happened about an hour ago where I went to buy felicity inverter at Garki modern market, Abuja for those that are familiar with the place.

A man came to buy felicity lead acid battery 12v 200ah. He needed 2pcs for 24v system. He came with a battery tester exactly like the one shown below. The shop attendant brought two new batteries but after the test, one showed "good battery" while the second one showed "replace battery". The customer rejected the second battery and demanded a replacement which caused an exchange of words btw the shop and the customer as the shop owner refused replacing the second battery.

My question is has anyone here ever used this battery tester and how reliable is it

Battery is still in warranty, I've only used it for a year and 6 months or so.

During the day I use it with all appliances from overn to freezer to ac to pumping machine and washing machine.

At night it goes off before 2am even when I only have 1 bulb on or none at all. Sometimes it won't go off at all and have like 70 percent in the morning on same 1 bulb.

I don't even have the receipt so I'm not sure they will be willing to fix it or anything.
Well, based on experience and in most cases, the only document felicity service centre ask for is the serial number on the appliances.

Both Hauwei and Mantrac are reputable brands. However, because they are used, there might be some argument as to how much life is left in them. However, being LIFEP04 batteries, they will still have a some juice left in them and will serve you better than some brand new chinko lead acid batteries in the market. Some questions you can ask the sellers:
1. How many years old are the batteries ?
2. What is the number of cycles that the batteries have been discharged ?
3. What were the batteries used for ?
If you can get some satisfactory answers to these and the price point is right, i see no reason why you cannot go ahead and purchase. Bear in mind though, that being a used product, you should have some lower expectations in terms of performance. Certain LifeP04 brands like SRNE advertise an 80% remaining capacity after over 6000 cycles of charging and discharging their 5.12kwh batteries (51.2v 100ah). You can research more on the model number of these batteries and see their spec sheets. But all in all as long as they are in good condition, i will take them over a lead acid battery any day.
1. The manufacturing date on the sticker is showing October 2022.
2. Can't determine number of cycles
3. According to the seller, they are telecom batteries.
4. The guy is quoting 850k for the Huawei 48v 150ah and 750k for the 48v,100ah
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by sharks776(m):
Hello Good people,
Please does anyone has any experience using this lithium batteries (they are used)
The black is Huawei and white is mantrac. They are being offered to me as used.

you want to add the new battery seperately, or pair it in series or parallel to existing battery bank ?
I want to Pair it in parallel.

I bought felicity 10kwh and paired it. Working fine so far

Hello

This is my current setup
Jinko 560w x8
Sunshine solar 430w x6
Sunshine solar 450w x6

3 CCs, one for each
1 inverter 7.5kv Felicity transformer base

2 Wakatek lithium batteries 12.5kwh (LB48250)

Everything is connected to 2 busbars (+&-)

Question:
I want to add at least one more battery but currently the distributor is out of stock.
What will be the effect if I add another brand of lithium battery possibly of different capacity? If that is even possible

Thanks for your input, I have a washing machine, 1.5 HP Inverter air conditioning unit, Deep Freezer (I think is about 200+ liters) A small LG fridge, 65'' Inch LED TV

But out of the aforementioned appliances, I tend to do power management when the inverter is in used and also depends the last time NEPA light or generator was used to power the chest freezer..

The Chest Freezer will mostly be used on the inverter at least 3-4 hours daily depending on the cold state of the freezer...

TV is definitely gonna be in used with my starlink Internet at night.... Other items will be off... I don't even intend using my air-conditioning unit or Washing machine with the inverter, My generator or NEPA light will power these items when needed and i have a solar rechargeable fans for ventilation.

My budget for this system setup is tied to the quality of the tall tubular battery to be used, Inverter system and panel.... this can help me tailor my budget, hence the reason i needed some answers and recommendation to my questions to help me plan towards it
Well as suggested by someone here, a 3kva to 5kva will do, either 24v or 48v but will advise you get 48v should incase you may decide to expand later. I have been using Felicity brand. Also, on the issue of battery, it is highly recommend that you buy lithium batteries if you can. A 5kw will do for now and can be easily expanded later.

On a different note, pls how efficient is your starlink? What are the pros and cons?

Flexmax has a easy equalization interphase, switch it on anytime. Others are ok, but flexmax is better.
@mcf
I have issues with my flexmax60, had for 5yrs now and still going. The issue is I recently upgraded and added another cc (felicity) with a different array of panels, ever since the fangpusun flexmax fan keeps huming every now and then, even at night, even when it producing zero watt. I think it has to do with the settings.

I disconnected the temperature cable from the cc and this stopped it (the fan)from coming up at night. However, it still comes up alot during the day.

Hello good people and Solar Pros in the house. Please I need advice on this issue. I have 6pcs of 430w panel and trying to expand with 6pcs 450w panels.

Q1: can I mix the two
Q2: can my fangpusun 60a handle it?

Note: the 430w panel has high Voc and low Isc, while the 450w has low Voc and higher Isc

I don't know how to set the charge controller.

Dude, if you have money for Felicity lithium battery, you should also invest wisely in a much better cc

Try it on bypass. Did your installer install a bypass?
We don't have mains supply for now. Will check later when the mains supply(NEPA) is back. But I have been off grid for the pass one week now.

2. No, no bypass installed, all goes tru the inverter except the larger appliances

Hello good people, I came back home today and met my fridge not working. Checked the socket and found out that both positive and neutral have voltage on them. I traced it all the way to the inverter (Felicity ivps3524). I then disconnected both Ac output terminals from the Inverter, switch back on the inverter and both positive and neutral AC output have voltage on them.

Has anyone experienced this?

I'm noticing most lifepo4 batteries on aliexpress is free shipping and highly affordable if you can get the dollars at bank rate. With $450 you can get 8 cell 3.2v 280 to 310ah shipped. I mean can it all be a scam?
Be ver careful and vigilant when buying Lifepo4 from AliExpress. Those Chinese guys are crooks sometimes. They might end up shipping you substandard or used batteries
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by sharks776(m):
I installed 1 wakatek 5kw battery and later added another after 3 weeks. The 2 are in parallel. The last one I installed is making a kind of fuming noise when charging with grid from my Felicity inverter. So I checked the charger amps which was set at 40a. I reduced it to 30a but could still hear the fuming sound from battery number 2. I had to reduce all the way to 10a b4 it became quiet.

Pls does anyone know the right charge AC charging points for this batteries.
For now am only charging from PV.

Juror:
Use a trusted multimeter to take readings and compare with the bms. I'll suggest you trust the BMS more.

What brand is your CC ?
is the felicity inverter the same as the one in the attached picture?
That is the exact type of inverter

get a 12v 200ah to 280ah lithium battery for about 300k to 400k abd forget about buying battery for the next 10 to 15yrs. or get a 100ah model for less than 200k if funds is a constraint
@valto advertised some units a while ago
You can get a 5kw 24v @ 450k

What does the inverter say the voltage is during those periods?
Get a trustworthy multimeter. It will solve most of these problems.
I also own a felicity 100a SCC and I know the voltage reading is not accurate and is usually higher than stated, but luckily I have a bmv battery monitor and multimeter to counter the error
The inverter is always ahead of the bms with 0.3v while the Fangpusun cc is ahead of the bms with 1.0v

Hello everyone and professionals in this thread. Am having a problem with my setup and need help

My equipment
CC - Fangpusun 60a
Inverter - Felicity ivps3524 combined with charger
Battery - 2 wakatek 5kw lithium in parallel

Problem:
Both cc and inverter are set to charge at
Abs 28.8v
Flt 28.8v

However, during the day whenever the cc reads 28.8v, the bms of the battery will read 26.7v at most. This shows a difference of 1.1v in charging.

During the night, when the inverter is charging via grid and reads 28.8v the bms of the battery will be 27.3 or 4 max
I am thinking of going with the bms reading and adding at least 1v to the cc and inverter charger setting. I also came across this on YouTube

This shows you still do not understand the "electoral collage" system. the electors are divided among states based on the number of seat the state has in the legislature. therefore, if we implement it here in Nigeria, it means States like Kano with 3 senators and 34 reps will end up with 36 electors while others like Bayelsa with 3 senators and 5 reps will on end up with 8 elector. capish!
ComeAndobo:
No. Though I'm not a republican but Electoral college is one of the checks and balances needed.

Imagine we have electoral college in Nigeria. Kaduna, Kano and katsina will have a fixed number of electoral college votes even if they continue to use under age kids and encouraging overpopulation dey born like rabbit.

With popular votes, the Northern political house will continue. That's their strategy. Popular votes.

Infact Maybe local government can be our own electoral college. Lagos has 37. Katsina has 34. Make we dey count am like that.
