I used mine to travel from Lagos to the East yesterday, the first time I'm going that far with it. About 2hrs to end of my trip, I started hearing a whirring sound from the engine and it's been giving me concern.
freeAgent99: I bought this fan some months back and it has started "misbehaving"! It recently developed a mind of its own by going into highest level and coming down to the lowest level. It doesn't accept any command from the remote. I don't know if anyone has experienced such or knows a solution to this particular problem. Anyone?
I use it and have never had any issues. The motor has a small controller board that is replaceable. That may be the issue.
- have you used it for 2 - 3 years? - if yes to above, it may be time to throw it away.
Note, my hisense used to do the whole power savings and still cool the room by about 4 - 5 degrees in the past, consuming between 300 - 600w depending on the compressor cycle. All of a sudden, i realized this mofo ac is constantly on 1.1 - 1.2kw.
Nothing wey i no clean finish, indoor unit, outdoor o, filter o, e.t.c. Eventually called fouani to come check on it, no real diagnosis other than "you know you can't compare when it was new"
In addition, with the 1.1kw consumption, the ac is no longer cooling properly and can't drop the temperature of the room more than 1 - 2 degrees.
Long story short, fouani just delivered my new 1.5 lg ac. They have it in stock now.
Instead of just discarding it, why not see if you can replace the compressor by a capable technician? You would probably find a hack to a recurring problem most people would be facing and save more than buying a new AC.
Although you don buy the new AC according to your post. 😂
alosbaba007: I saw ur post late bt if you haven't purchased that, there is another one that consumes way less, its an ac/dc ceiling fan made by the same company, best purchase av made this year
I bought and installed one and bought a spare because I know all too well how these things prices skyrocket. I have a bad remote though and wish to know where I can get a replacement. My baby don use saliva kill am.
Valto: my warranty is far more solid than those brands anyway thanks for the trust. just give them the well known brands they desire. mine is also well known to several hundreds of people on nairaland using my batteries.....
Someone used your battery for an installation my junior colleague was vetting. He was wondering about the brand, I glanced over his shoulder to his screen, saw the name and picture and smiled.
Told him to pass the battery, that I know the seller (or assembler if you may). 👍
Keep the good work, and don't let your brand down.
HeavenlyBang: Was trying to avoid going on the roof but it appears I have no option.
I actually did use a pressure washer but tried to hit it from an adjacent window. Sadly by the time the water travels the distance there's not much pressure left.
More regular but decent washing is better than one, painstakingly squeaky clean wash. Dust will always still settle.
oweniwe: Whatever you do, don't buy lead acid battery. Else rainy season/ cloudy condition will show you pepper.
Use mppt from 60a
2,000w minimum inverter. Sachet inverter should be able to power all the chargers.
3 units of 330w panels should do
Depending on your location, site your panel where sun can begin to reach out from 8am to 5pm. Turn on inverter 8:15am and off it between 5.30 and 6pm.
You will spend up to 1m - 1.5m but you will enjoy it later. If you're charging N150 per phone /N200 power bank is cool biz. Just see your solar system as fixed asset
ZERO Daily operation EXPENSES
No running shop ceiling fan o ... Or anything else dunno how the inverter will fare with the additional load
gofigurena: Okay, I'll email you his number. But I won't vouch for his honesty o. I believe what happened is an act of God. I believe it with all my heart. Give me your email address.
luvlyoracle: I use a powmr 60amps mppt charge controller connected to a 24v system I used 3panels of 280w voc of 39v in series but it’s generating max 63w What could be the cause?
I think you have exceeded max voc of 100v. Hope the battery settings are correct too?
Xanderone: So I got this Tuya DC meter to test out it's functions. I'd been angry with dem Chinese for not thinking out a way to make a DC meter that works on Tuya platform despite the numerous smart add-ons that they have on that platform. . I present to you, the Tuya Smart DC meter.
Second and fourth pictures are screenshots of some of the functions as it is on my mobile.
Even though with felicity hybrid I use, I can have some online monitoring capacity. But this Tuya meter appears to pack some punches.
Hi,
How is this performing? I just read about a similar product on AE. They said even though it's bidirectional, you have to always reset to zero when charging or discharging to have accurate capacity readings. What that implies, is that if you don't reset it for a solar connected battery, it just keeps increasing in kWh readings wether the battery is charging or discharging. Is this true please?
gofigurena: Hi again, everyone. You didn't hear from me all day because I arrived my base in the South East at around 9:30 pm. I have been on the road. This is someone who took off from Lagos a little after 6 am. And this SUV is incredibly fast. Damn. It's like they built it to be quick. Still, police and customs kept delaying us until we lost so much time. I'm just glad I made it home safely, with my new SUV snoring in my house. After everything and the hbp I almost developed😁, I feel very grateful to God. I know He did this one. I also take this as a mighty lesson in my life.
Abeg share the seller number. Honest business people now na gold o.
greggng: The good news is that we did our job to educate you. None of us wanted evil to befall you . Also verify that the particulars giving to you matches with autoreg information to avoid wrong registration . That's another problem for a car. Wish you safe trip back home
Some people wanted the evil, just to prove a point. Or say "shebi I tell you"...happy for the OP ni. Na big risk he take, and thankfully it ended well.
Hi please can I get your number? Someone is with my laptop at computer Village. A repairer said the power IC is bad and they don't have it. Can he bring it to you?
Greatzeus: @ Udemzyudex someone advised me to get an external cooling fan which I can connect to my laptop during heavy usage,to prevent it from getting too hot and shut down,since the laptop fan is no longer blowing well. He said if I want to replace the fan,I might have to order the default Heatsink fan from overseas because it's scarce. I have ordered one on jumia, it has 6 fans of 3 different sizes,the smallest has 1900RPM,the medium is 2100RPM or so, while the largest has 2600RPM. I saw several brands with RPM of between 900 and 1200, but I decided to go for that one because it has higher fan speed and will give more air to the CPU.
You may just need to clean the fan of your system. Overtime it attracts dust and other things that clog it up. Also make sure you place it in a flat rigid surface always. Avoid surfaces like bed, pillow, cloth etc.
bassdow: You see that 300 watts panles eh, they are not just heavy BUT wide, and to carry am climb ladder, especially for any building more than 2-storey, na better work.
What I often do is use rope to pull it up because if e fall or hit something well enough, you don buy market BUT it never occurred to me it could stay on it's own without support.
Anything higher than one story, at least a binding wire should be used oh.
dollarnaira: @Odimbannamdi Depending on the slope of the roof. Mine is there without anything bc weight of panels alone na die. Since no hurricane or tornado type of wind. They are just there. My decision!
Same here. But na for bungalow height, and my balcony directly overlooks them, so Dem de there like rock.
odimbannamdi: How exactly are binding wires used to hang solar panels on a roof? Do you intend to use the wire to bind the panels together and just place them on roof? I am struggling to get the picture. Please shed some more light for our learning.
Besides, in the normal process of hanging solar panels on roof, nails or hammers are NOT used. The dark-coloured screw on the left part of the first picture is used to drill the rail into the roof through the upper-undulated part of the roof that has wood underneath as seen in the second picture, while the second screw and bolt on the right part of the first picture is used to hold the panels together on the rail as seen in the third picture.
So, it is not drilling that causes issues to the roof, it is process of working on the roof and causing indent to the lower-undulated part of the part which causes water to collect that causes the damage
moneymind: For sale 1. Programmable 60 amps Charge controller N25k. 2. Sachet Inverter 1kw, Inverts only, no charging with light N15k 3. Sachet charger, Inverter part is bad, but charges battery with light. N10K
Has anybody here used Cworth 4kw hybrid inverter? Does it have issues charging an LFP battery from grid?
I installed one recently and noticed it charges from grid. However, if there is supply interruption and it is restored the battery will refuse to charge except the inverter is shutdown and restarted. 🤔
TEQ365VENTURES: Good afternoon experts in the house please I have the following solar set up and I just noticed my inverter hardly charge when during the day when there is sun. However, holds charge well when charged with nepa.
Below is what’s coming from the controller 5A and the highest I’ve gotten recently is 10.5A
Are the panels Canadian solar? How did the installer connect them? What's their rough azimuth value, I mean their elevation and orientation? Any shading on them?
