dollarnaira: Chief Abeg no laugh me o🤣. Before a man builds a tower, he needs to sit down and count the cost. I want to know if I can buy with other accessories once or if I can buy other accessories and buy later. That’s why I needed a rough estimate on the accessories. |

dollarnaira: Please can you help me with the installer’s number? Thank you. |

KudozInteriors: What he means by LG is fouani. Fouani stores are plenty in Lagos(check their website for location). Also the brand of is Jinko. So go and buy Jinko s of the advised sizing from fouani stores. 5 Likes 1 Share |

650k to 750k The target is mainly for the day no matter the weather condition of the day my laptop should be on from 8am to 4pm . Others are minor just for light at night dollarnaira: |
Tekenny: 1:34pm On Mar 20 |
Thank you very much @valto. This should be a total of about 800k to 850k including accessories. Please will this size of be enough for me even on the worst day of the year to power my laptop for 8 hours (8am to 4pm)? Valto: |

Tekenny: I prefer hybrids, especially the ones from good brands. Cheaper and cleaner. Some prefer non-hybrid, everybody with their own. dollarnaira: My 200L freezer starts up at ~800w, then drops back down to the usual 110w. As long as the 1.5kw is actually 1.5kw, it should be fine I guess. |
HeavenlyBang(m): 1:48pm On Mar 20 |
Tekenny: Probably the only setup I'd actually recommend 12v for since your power demands are so low. 1.5kva hybrid 12v 100aH lifepo4 700-800w of s If you buy used s and Cworth's cheaper battery you can build this with like 800k. |
Tekenny: 1:51pm On Mar 20 |
Okay thanks

SourYoghurt:thank you dollarnaira, your own no go spoil( no pun intended ). I have everything working great. I get 700w right now with the weather ( it rained yesterday). |
dollarnaira: 3:04pm On Mar 20 |
HeavenlyBang: This is cool |
dollarnaira: 3:25pm On Mar 20 |
HeavenlyBang: That set up is even lower than 12v if there is anything of such. An ordinary 23ah lithium ion powered a 32" tv for 7hrs without sunlight. I know of a family living with this but with a single 200w , pwm cc, and 500w msw Inverter. They go to work and return at night when they needed it most. Na inside dem dey charge their phones and 1 laptop plus occasional blending. You see bro, our demands for energy differs, na how u take use am na im b d koko. Some persons earn great salary but envy those who earn less but spend wisely. How u take use your 12v during your time bros? ![]() My yield is not even upto 700w and my battery is full now. N.B: Am not against 24v and higher o. You get the gist bah? Na so! 2 Likes |

SourYoghurt: You welcome bro. Enjoy your investment. |
CuteMaro(m): 4:03pm On Mar 20 |
HeavenlyBang:So deep freezers can surge up to 800w omo. Do you have any idea of Welion 1.5kw 24v hybrid inverter? Is it really up to that capacity? It comes with a 40amps Mppt cc inbuilt, surge is up to 3kw and maximum pv input is 1200w. |
HeavenlyBang(m): 4:26pm On Mar 20 |
dollarnaira: I absolutely agree. Energy needs differ, and people actually tend to overestimate the amount of energy they need. CuteMaro: I have no hands-on experience with Welion inverters but the specs you've listed look fine for the installation you posted. Post the MPPT specs if possible (voltage range, max VoC). |
adrusa: 4:36pm On Mar 20 |
Hello my people. Please does anyone know the OEM of this charge controller? Can someone also please share the manual. Thanks.

CuteMaro(m): 5:07pm On Mar 20 |
HeavenlyBang: 30-150v is the voltage range. I don't plan to use solar s with it for the moment anyways as I get 18-20hrs of light daily save for like once a week due power failure. One more question, if I get say 7kwh lithium battery and I don't discharge often due to excessive light, will that be a problem to overall health of the battery? |
HeavenlyBang(m): 5:13pm On Mar 20 |
CuteMaro: Just try to use the battery once every couple of months at least. Lifepo4 can handle storage for months. |
dollarnaira: 6:34pm On Mar 20 |
@Heavenlybang please what brand of hybrid do you use?

Hello Sirs, Please can you recommend an Hybrid inverter with Pure Sine wave output. I present use a 24V system. CC Dam5reey1 Heavenlybang |

Tekenny: HMSolar. They have an office around Festac IIRC.

twosquare(m): 8:38pm On Mar 20 |
CuteMaro:Mine surges to 1.2 kw sometimes when you ON it before going back to 125w. So, knowing the surge your system can handle is crucial. It is a chest freezer. 1 Like |

yoniehuin:Cool. The solar s can also be gotten from there. Make sure they are above 600W each at least. 1 Like |

You know that this is not a 12v 500ah battery Christian8880: |

Namzy: People use grid tie solar inverters in Nigeria to reduce expenses on diesel (they get to run smaller diesel gen) and reduce NEPA bills. Though the organisation that often go for it are mostly those that run during the day eg banks, schools, etc. They incorporate a GTI to their system to help reduce utility billings and reduce expense on fuel. They don't have to necessarily sell back excess power to the grid (as Nigeria currently have no such feature in their energy distribution system). |

Mrreed: If it's truly 500ah battery will weigh close to 52kg (equivalent to some 200ah lead acid battery). China sometimes just goes crazy with their specification ![]() 1 Like |
