AtheistD: If you say so...

So what about that answer I requested?

Like I said earlier, it's no use as you won't understand it. Because it would be coming from the Bible which you guys don't understand and wont believe. So why don't you stop quoting me and lets just leave it there.

AtheistD: An unintelligent post. You don't know the answer... admit it

Atheist always believe they are the most intelligent, but they can't understand the bible.

AtheistD: Yes.

So what about aquatic life?

Responding to an atheist! No use. Waste of time. We can't ever understand each other.

AtheistD: What about aquatic life?

An atheist?
quoting me!

jayseehe: according to the bible, only human beings and serpents were cursed, so why do other animals suffer too?
what did they do wrong?

After cursing the woman (in terms of child birth labour), it was the ground that was cursed for "Man's" sake. That would definitely affect everything. All animals live off the ground. They move and feed from the ground (directly or indirectly), so basically, by cursing the ground, everything was cursed. Gen 3:17-19

He may be right. But publicly airing this personal view is a betrayal of his party and I'm sure PDP would not like this. If the PDP ends up winning, this would be mentioned by APC as part of reason to believe the election was rigged. I think he should have kept this to himself.

dsunmade: You don't need such a big gen to run the charger. With my 2.5Kva Sumec generator, I run my inverter, my battery charger, chest freezer, refrigerator, TV, all house lights and occasionally, washing machine at the same time without the generator groaning. The charger is very energy efficient, with the 24V 20A consuming about 700W at full steam.

That was based on davechika's advice to use at least a 5KVA Gen. I also have a 2.8/3KVA Gen which I use most of the times. It powers my chest freezer, 1.5KVA Inverter, laptop & lighting (hardly have time to watch TV, it's almost always off), but the gen groans when the Inverter is on.

Since, you say the power is below 1000W, then I should plan for it, though I'm confused on what the connection will look like. Would the Inverter need to be on too while the external charger is charging the batteries? If I have to run both the external charge & the Inverter at the same time, that would be too much for the 2.8/3KVA Gen. Can you talk about this?

Thank you davechika. With the information provided by both of you, I think I've got most of the information I need. I'm think I would have to suspend the idea for now. Power though greatly improved around my area, we often have some extended periods without power. I'm not ready to be running those heavy duty generators just for charging the batteries. Besides cost, they are very noisy. I appreciate the information provided.

Aliexpress. Not really taken note of dhgate.

Ok. Thank you dsunmade.

There is hope for Nigeria.

Hmm.

dsunmade: You can get a 24V 30A 4-stage intelligent battery charger. May cost you even more about 70-80k. It is intelligent, senses and displays the charging current and voltage. When the battery bank is fully charged, it goes to float and you can switch off.
It is also low power consuming, consuming less than 1 KW. I use the 24V, 20A version with my setup and it works perfectly.

Thank you very much for this. Please would this specification do for 4 170ah 12V batteries? How much is the 20A version you are using and what is the name of the product so that I can research and read more about it? Thank you.

Private schools. Parents of such schools would be very proud of the schools. Enrollment is going to increase. Good for them. Hard work pays.

I'll like to give those schools a prize too.

Congrats.

davechika: uken73,
yeah,i use external charger with three battery banks of 24volts on my numeric 2kva inverter,you can get an external 20amps to 30amps 24volts battery charger to support d inverter charger but best results is wen used with phcn or ur generator should be at least 5kva.
normal battery chargers used by technicians to charge car batteries with 24volts support is wat i have been using for months now.
i also wired a electronic timer to d charger since its a manual start,this cuts off d charger after a pre defined time to avoid over charging d batteries.

Thanks for the response. But I have a few questions.
1. As you operate with a timer, does it mean you have to wait for the batteries to be fully discharged before charging it, so as to conform to your timer's timing?
2. And when you are charging with this external charger, is the inverter also running (like charging some of the the 3 batteries)?
3. Do you know if there is a 1.5KVA option? Though 7.5KVA & 12KVA diesel generators are available, they are alternately used sparingly to power bigger equipment, the Gen that would mostly be used is a 2.8/3KVA petrol gen which would not power a 2KVA Inverter along with other loads conveniently.
4. What is the cost of the external charger?

Thanks.

For an employee, monthly pay makes planning easier. But for someone who has self control in spending it does not really matter. As an employer, I would mostly prefer to pay monthly it the work to be performed by the employee is constant. I suppose the hourly pay would be based on Job availability which is better when the work to be performed is not consistently available. But there must be a bases for accessing the work done, else you may have someone waste time so that it would result in more hours to pay. I've used both depending on circumstances.

Local champions. The attitude that prevents professionalism. So if there is a better producer or actor, he can't be engaged just because of origin. Doesn't make sense.

I wonder why this case should be pending since 2010.

No experts in the forum?

I have four (4) 170ah 12V batteries that I'm using with a 1.5KVA 24V Liminous Inverter.
I acquired and started using them by December 2013, but 2 months ago the charging began to be inconsistent and soon stopped completely.
They were checked today and 1 of the 4 batteries is bad and another battery is week. And the two have been taken for charging (maybe boosting) with a better charging device.

Two things have been mentioned as the possible cause of the battery failures.
1. The batteries were on bare cement floor (They have now been lifted).
2. The 1.5KVA battery can't charge all 4 batteries efficiently. The advice is to get a specialized charger for charging purpose.

I have lost confidence on the suppliers. It took more than three months to deliver the initial system, and when there was this problem, it took over two months to get support from them.

I'll like to make my findings and source for the charger else where if that is actually what would solve my problem.

So I'll like to know the following;
1. If getting a dedicated charger would be a solution to this problem.
2. What brand, capacity of charger would be suitable
3. If the charger can be powered by a 2.8KVA petrol generator which also has a chest deep freezer to support among other things.
4. What is the cost of the charger and possibly where it can be sourced.
5. Any other useful advice for me to maintain and enjoy the inverter system.

Thanks
