FYI: On-line or double conversion UPS designs accept input power with relatively wide variations in voltage and frequency. An on-line UPS actually re-develops the waveform. The AC input from either the mains or a standby generator is first converted to DC by the rectifier. The DC current is used to charge the battery. During an outage, DC current from the batteries is reformed by an inverter back to perfect sine-wave AC for the critical load. Newer models also use power factor correction to provide an even wider input voltage range. Because of this double conversion (AC to DC, then DC to AC), variations in the input frequency are of little concern. Therefore the same frequency variations that would cause an off-line or a line-interactive UPS to transfer to battery power have no effect on the on-line UPS.

Ito ang pinakamahal na Inverter/UPS… halos doble sa presyo ng line-interactive design. Example is the Australian brand below:

Solar Philippines offers to replace coal power plants with solar farms

SOLAR PHILIPPINES Power Project Holdings, Inc. has offered to replace all planned coal-fired power plants with solar farms equipped with battery storage in a move that it expects to significantly cut electricity rates.

After two years and 11 months... my MPPT charge controller 10A (shown below) is going to retire because the battery led indicators are already not accurate or the readings are already not reliable and sometimes not working anymore.

btw, below is my backup replacement PWM charge controller (KTF1220) using 100W panel to charge 70AH solar master battery.

Thanks for this update.... sad to see that even a brand like Lumiax (I thought it was a good brand) disfunctions after only 3 years...

pa subscribe ts.. gawin ko to pag may time na ako.. matagal ko na rin gustong mag solar... ang taas na kasi nang presyo nang electricity... salamat ts!

Sir ask ko lang ulit regarding inverter na hindi pure sine wave.. anu po ang effect ito sa mga hilaw na LED 220V.. ?

Sir ask ko lang ulit regarding inverter na hindi pure sine wave.. anu po ang effect ito sa mga hilaw na LED 220V.. ?

personal experience ko ay mas madali mapundi ang AC led bulbs sa modified sine wave inverter... yung sa akin less than one year pundi na... sigurado, kung pure sine wave ang inverter, mas tatagal kasi hindi masyado umi-init

as compared kung rekta na lang sa battery ang 12V dc led bulbs, going 3 years na ang sa akin ay OKs pa rin.

Sir ask ko lang ulit regarding inverter na hindi pure sine wave.. anu po ang effect ito sa mga hilaw na LED 220V.. ?

I think it depends on the quality of the inverter and the bulbs... For sure 12 volts LED bulbs without inverter last longer... I have 12 volts bulbs direct to batteries, bulbs in 220 volts connected to a modified wave inverter and I had also 220 volts connected to a pure sine wave.... up to now I can't say if there is a difference as all of them are still ok after several years... I had cheap LED connected on AC that died after few months only!!

Sir I have 1. 2 pcs. solar panel with 100w each
2. 150 ah battery
hanggang ngayon di ako makadecide kung ano ang bibilhin na inverter.
tanong po 1. ano bang magandang inverter off grid inverter or on grid tie inverter
2. maganda po ito "Y&H 600W Off Grid Inverter, 12VDC to AC220V Surge Power 1200W Pure Sine Wave Inverter for Solar or Wind Power System CZ-600W-12V-220V - intl" anong ibig sabihin ng 600w Off Grid Inverter at saka Surge Power 1200w - maganda na ba itong gamitin?
3. 0k na ba ang 60a charge controller sa 2 solar panel with 100w each - kaya lang gusto kong dagdagan ng isa pang solar panel

Sana Ts mapansin mo ang tanong ito at mabigyan mo ng linaw. salamat

Inverters are rated in both "continuous" and "surge" wattage. The "surge" could be 2x or 3x the rated wattage. For example, as the motor of a 500W water pump is turned on the surge could be 1000 - 1500W. Therefore, the Y&H Off Grid Inverter is rated as 600W "continuous" and 1200W "surge". Mas mahal ang inverter na mataas ang "surge" rated power. Kung motor ang paa-andarin mo, dapat mataas ang "surge"... pero kung mga electronics lang OK na ang mababa ang "surge".

Kung meron ka plano na mag-upgrade ng panel, dapat ay mataas na MPPT charge controller na ang gamitin mo.

sir kung stable naman po ang DU sa location mo i would sggest na mag gridtie ka na lang muna.
sa gridtie mas less ang maintenance at syempre mas maliit ang budget, solar panel external protectors
& gridtie inverter lang good to go ka na.yung ma se save mo monthly ipunin lang muna para in the future
pang set up nmn sya ng off grid para in case of brownout may reserve ka energy. tip lang po yan ikaw pa din
ang final desisyon, salamat sana makapag decide ka na agad sayang kasi si haring araw ...

First off grid or tie grid: it depends where you are... For a legit tie-grid connection, I think only Meralco allows it. Otherwise it's at your own risk!
The inverter power is related to the appliances you are going to use. If you want to use it with a 100 watt appliance for example, you don't need a 600 watt inverter but if the total wattage of the appliances your are going to use is around 500 watts (with not more than 1200 watt surge - as explained by Sir Tristan) the the 600 watt should be ok. Be aware that the bigger the inverter, the more it consumes.
Regarding the controller, read Sir Tristan remark!
