Is it possible to connect ups for charging battery? How can i connect ups to battery to power ac fans to use overnight?
You will kill your fans in no time. The ac output isn't clean enough for directly running inductive loads for long. If you must use the UPS, use a dc fan on it.
Cheers

Sure it's over 160v



It's an hybrid with mppt 80A



6 250w bought brand new



Not yet


Overall I think I will try the standalone as earlier adviced, my concern though is that I hope that is the actual problem since that will be an extra investment.
Why not use some kind of props to raise the lower end of your array till a flat level is obtained? Maybe cheaper that way. Iv seen it done so on some of my coy's installations.

Thanks @mank1234 @Dam5reey @GeorgeD1 we agree but the issue is that in the morning the sun is on the other side so I just choose one of the sides not knowing that I won't be getting any wattage in the afternoon.

@zellfoxx am not in Lagos, am in Ado-Ekiti by 00 does it mean my roof can't achieve an optimal harvest from sun rise to sun set and will need to setup a standalone?
Bros just make ur panels flat, without anything casting shadows on them from Dawn to dusk otan ni... We are at the equator so flat is ok for you.
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Trippledots(m): 10:02am On Jul 07, 2019
zellfoxx:
From this your pic, practically no solar radiation is hitting the panels at this time. And its obvious your panel tilt angle is waaaay below optimum. If you are in Lagos, I believe placing them with O° tilt would be best all year round.

Another factor you may have overlooked is one basic principle with long strings. Once there is partial shading on just a single panel in the string, whether via cloud cover or anything else, it drops the voltage of that string to a multiple of the lowest value recorded by that panel. Hence, you are evidently getting the least possible voltage value from the string, even before it gets to your inbuilt mppt cc. That's one reason for avoiding long single strings though.
The last point u gave just righted a design plan in my head.. Lol.

I for just go waste already scarce insolation for my end.
Jah bless bros.

That's why i read almost every post here, whether i need it now or not. No information is a waste ni.

Actually the flames I was referring to were tear nylon brand new cool. I have gotten used 300w from some seller on this thread in the past (won't mention name) but that was before I discovered that new ones are not as expensive out there.
Can u guys help some of us on very tight budgets biko nu.

NiyiOmoIyunade:
Base load 2kw per hour and surge loads 4 to 5kw when water heaters, microwave e.t.c come on.

Why did I use solar panels to meet above and beyond my current and future power needs - reliability - I have not owned or touched a generator for the last 2 years at least and I am off-grid 95% - use mains electricity to power house loads only if available between 8pm and 3am.

Of all the power sources I have experienced solar power has been the most reliable - I therefore chose it disproportionately over other sources - now on a good day I make too much power and on a cloudy day I make enough power to get by.

The same amount to buy a 20kva Diesel Gen gets me 24pieces of 300w panels and 2 CCs with change to spare and near zero maintenance or fuel costs relative to a generator. So the math checks out for me especially as I am in a position to get panels dirt cheap.
What's the cap of your installed battery?

I no even understand why Lontor dey behave like this, my fan too, I've fixed the battery, replacement still not lasting that long, the neck self don break, the thing just dey in coma kinda grin
Loll... You can modify it, and use a car battery for it. It will last very long with a suitable charger too.

Good day people, please who has an idea of where i can get a battery for this fan and the cost?

Fan model is LONTOR CTL-CF017R
Get an electrician to open it up and check. But usually they are 7ahr 12v lead acid battery. Any regular battery seller can help u confirm also

Y'all saying that isn't his d!ck, look well. There is relativd motion between whatever that is and his thigh. A phone vibrates but doesn't move with such force, not when it is even now held in place in a side pocket. Except the phone is stretches with hands and legs when vibrating then i will believe.

Haba.

How can you say that is a phone vibrating?? Is the phone a robot?!

My latest upgrade!
Seems my tinkering days are almost over grin

5 Kva Victron Quattro Inverter
250/100 Victron SmartSolar CC
150/85 Victron Smartsolar CC
Venus GX
Zeihl UFR1001E Anti-Islanding relay
Carlo Gavazzi ET112 energy meter
Victron energy BMV712 Battery monitor
5.2kw Solarworld panels
1.8kw Canadian panels

The system is running ESS Assistant with 50 watt grid import allowed, no export.

I've got 3 DBs;
Main DB powered by the grid only
Base DB on AC1 output (Essential loads)
Aux DB on AC2 output (also controlled by battery soc)

System is running smoothly, tweaking still ongoing grin

Before the second coming, I shall definitely switch to lithiums.

A few pictures... Disregard the messy wiring, there's still beauty in chaos tongue
Why no export allowed? Nice specs. Victron is a rugged boy

I have a problem house 'well don't know whether I'll call it a problem' I have 340w x 4 solar panels on a 24v system with 2x luminous tubular batteries 220ah with a fangpusun 100/50 problem is my total watts in my house is about 450w[ps4 occasionally] minus the microwave and iron obviously for this I put the max charging current @ 30a but at that current I am not utilizing the full solar panel watts. Is there a way to leave it @50 and then somehow get a device to limit charging current at 25a also sometimes if there is available utility the inverter and the charge controller gives a combined charge current of about 38a which is dangerous. And utility is necessary to power the old split unit and for charging @ night......what to do?
if you dont need the extra amps (or pv watts) why bother about it? the cc is doing its job of regulating the amps to what you set it at, so why complicate things?

Meanwhile, you said 38A is dangerous for a 200ahr battery? undecided is that particular with tubular batteries or all LA batteries?

Wow, i didn't know underbridge was under fire here oh. Well i was with him on whatsapp and we just sealed the deal.

Appearance:
He did clean the fridge up and it really looks better than in the pix. Thumbs-up bro

Performance:
It cools too. Under 15mins of operation the freezer section was already forming frost....Now na to see if it is durable small. (I'm not expecting it to last like Methuselah sha. Lol)

Price:
He dropped the price too...I took the fridge for 15k. Plus a promise of the microwave later. I think that's fair enough for a clearance sale.

Delivery:
He actually brought the item to an agreed point. I appreciate that gesture.

Dude looks cool too...the voice of the people is truly the voice of god. Lol

Cheers y'all.
