Thank you for the upload of such a content, I just gained a few tips on how to maintain my Tubular Batteries and make them last as expected. You just earned a new Subscriber
Wonderful indeed ,thax for the ideas
Nice one
Thank you
Excellent voice for this review 😊😊
Thank you so much for the vital info GOD BLESS
Thank you
Thanks for the info.
Just got my first solar setup barely 2 weeks ago.
Been looking for general info on how to take care of the system
Love ur video.... very simple and well packaged
Thanks for your kind words
The guys installed it poorly so now I have more knowledge of how to care for it. They told me nothing. Thank you for helping.
I'm really appreciate to watched this video
Thanks
Very interesting
Thanks
Interesting
Thank u
Nice voice and manner of presentation
Thank you
Tnks for teaching those quack installers who preaches using Electrolyte for maintenance instead of pure distilled.
Happy new year , pls,which brand of distilled water will you suggest pls. I noticed there are soo many mixtures in the market.
By the way thank you i have learnt something especially on tubular batteries and and one can maintain them
Great
You are welcome
What is equalisation? How will one do that? Could you elaborate on that?
Edit: still on equalisation. I noticed that MPPT charge controllers are advertised to offer this function alongside a BMS. I'm wondering if this suffices for the battery equalisation that you mention.
(forgive the many questions).
I have it in my palour
Please let me know how I can learn and the requirements
What garjet do i need to avoid overload
Taking interest in solar system equipment, and wish to learn more....do you do special tutorial classes? I really need to get this knowledge
Yeah very soon will let you guys know
how do i get a temperature sensor for my tubular battery
my battery is connected parallel, at first it works so well but now it's not lasting up to 6 hours after dawn but I use it for 24 hours before
Hiya ..... maybe in your next video you could show us how to test the individual cell voltage of a flooded lead acid battery with a multimeter please 😁
Well noted thanks for your comment
WHAT'S THE EASIEST WAY TO EQUALIZE CHARGE A FLOODED BATTERY?
5:00 Electrolyte 😮😮😮 vs Distilled water
Hi! I must say you are doing a wonderful job. I have just bought a tubular battery and noticed that the electrolyte level is not uniform in all the compartments. The electrolyte spilled in transit giving rise to that difference in electrolyte levels though not appreciable differences. Please what do you suggest? Should I top up with electrolyte or distilled water?
Before you use the battery ask the battery manufacture to refill the electrolyte for you other wise the strength of the battery is affected.
OK thanks!
Hello, please can you recommend best tabular battery???
Star plus
how does one make sure equalization is happening is the job of the inverter or the charge controller
It is the job of the charge controller. I will advise the use of a MPPT charge controller. Check the manual for how to set it up to "flooded" or "fla" after you have connected the battery. Always remember to connect battery before solar panels.
Sweeet
Thanks Frank you rock
i have issues with one of my batteries and it is no longer again when it is cut off. i used a multimeter to read it after separation the connection one will give me 12.4voit which the second will give me 10.3voit tall tubular battery. pls i need solutions?
How long have you had the battery for? Did you buy them together?
Do you have the float indicators in place, and what is the level showing? You may have to first top up with distilled water and then check with your multimeter across each cell to get more than 2V.
Interesting information. So, I recently got a tubular battery for a setup and during its transportation the battery leaned over and the liquid spilled. So, we rang the dealer and reported the matter and he sent electrolyte. Is this appropriate? What should be used to refill the battery, a new battery which is yet to be installed?
I'll appreciate any and all inputs. Thanks.
In your specific case, replacement with electrolyte is correct because the total volume needed to be restored. The reason only distilled water is used for top up is that it's usually the "water" part of the electrolyte that evaporates during charging, making the mixture more concentrated. Reppacement with distilled water restores the correct concentration. I hope this helps
@@cdoscope thank you for your reply. When the fluid arrived, it was distilled water. They have maintained that if I want to refill, it has to be with distilled water but I should use the float indicators to determine the need for a refill. So, going by the indicators, everything is green. I wish there was an all-instructions manual that would help a user to understand what to do in various circumstances.
@ekeretteekpo3004 they are not quite correct. Consider the simple logic - if the battery needs say 4 liters of elctrolyte (specific mixture of hydrochloric acid and distilled water, and it spill and loses say 1 liter of that mixture, replacing the 4 liter volume of fluid with plain distilled water will certainly cause a 25% dilution of the electrolyte. In the case of loss of 1 liter volume due to evaporation, its only water that is lost, so you only need water to replace the volume.
All in all, it's wiser to heed your warranty provider, but tell them what I wrote and listen to their explanation
@@cdoscope alright. I'll do just that right away.
Edit: By the way, since the float indicators (which are also tagged "electrolyte level indicator" in the manual) show green, it should mean that the battery cells are fully topped. So, in spite of the spillage that occurred, the cells are fully topped. I wonder what will happen if I simply added distilled water. Unfortunately, I don't know the mark where the fluid level is supposed to be at.
The reason this is a bit of a concern right now is that it appears to me as though the battery was discharging a little bit faster than I was expecting.
@@cdoscope by the way, I have just informed them what you've written and waiting for their response.
Thank you for your replies, please.
do i need an equilizer for 2*12volts parallel batteries
Because i only saw 24 or 48volts equilizers.
Yes you do
@@smilinsunsmilinsun8056 so i have to buy 24volt equilizer.
thank u so much sir.
Get a MPPT charge controller. It will sort out the equalisation of the batteries during charging. Simply set it to the type of battery you connect to it or do that under the "User" configuration if you have the battery's manual.
Hi sir good morning sir. Pls my charge controller is bsc6048 and I used carbon genus tubular batteries . Pls what the specification of battery will I set it to is it flooded battery or lead acid battery because that only two I can find in the option in setting of the batteries type no tubular battery there.
Thanks.
Flooded lead acid
Do we need to do monthly equalization if we have a battery equalizer attached to the batteries?
Once in 2 months is fine
@@smilinsunsmilinsun8056 ok, what i meant was that you showed an equalizer device showing voltages and then the equalization that is done periodically. Is there any need for the periodic equalization if you have the equalizer connected to the batteries
how do we do equalization@@smilinsunsmilinsun8056
@@odoohub5010no, you don't because the equaliser should do that as needed. By the way, some MPPT charge controllers come with this function (a BMS), particularly when you have more than one battery connected to each other.
But some inverter doesn’t have the setting for charging voltage, some inverter does that automatically
Yeah that is the very small inverters from 3.5kva and below, the system does that by itself
@@smilinsunsmilinsun8056 thanks for the response.
How do I correct this, have added electrolyte to my tubular 220 leader battery and subsequently the backup has reduced the battery it's months old.. How to correct it thanks
Flush the entire the battery with distilled water and replace the electrolytes with the battery manufacturers exact SG
@@smilinsunsmilinsun8056 I hope isn't too late boss.. Where do I get the disteeled water from?
@@abibujimah7342battery dealers have them. They sell distilled water as well as electrolyte.
@@abibujimah7342from a battery seller. They also have electrolyte.

My tubular battery water always dry up every 27days in some cells faster than others, now it’s not working. How do I revive it
This is an indication of a wrong charging voltage
You may need to check your entire set up and be sure that the required voltage is what is delivered to the battery. Even though the tubular battery requires maintenance, it shouldn't be that often.
@@ekeretteekpo3004 you are tight Buddy
After checking your setup, check with your seller or the battery manufacturer or the manual to know its specific gravity. Get a proper hydrometer and distilled water, and top up each cell with the water while checking the specific gravity to be sure it matches the manufacturer's specifications. Before this, make sure to turn off the inverter or disconnect it if you used a MCB breaker between the battery and the inverter.
Realise that you may be undercharging and/over overdischarging your battery. CHECK YOUR SET-UP. If you can, use a MPPT controller. They are better suited for non-lithium batteries.
Am using my solar batteries and my inverter had and stop using the batteries for about one and half year, I restore my inverter and connected to batteries,the batteries are no longer powered. So pls could be the fault? Or is it because damp the batteries for a year. Thanks
Lead Acid batteries are not supposed to be left on a standbye mode for a long time. If not charged for a very long time it will sulphate . It needs to be constantly charged and equalized.
The batteries will need to be boosted or so. Take them to a technician who will boost charge the batteries and equalise the cells. That should revitalise them for your subsequent use.
You don't need to take them to technician you can do that yourself with the charge controller equalization.
@@smilinsunsmilinsun8056 okay. I didn't want to sound like an oversabi on the matter. I feel like I have acquired so much knowledge over the past couple of weeks.
Lol feel free Buddy to express your knowledge @@ekeretteekpo3004
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Why is it that when my tabular battery is fully charged during the day, the charging level drops to around 60% even when not in use?
The battery no longer retains stored energy, it's probably failed
@@smilinsunsmilinsun8056 It is a brand new battery. at 60% it can last up to eight 5 hours at half load. The battery is an Mpower 220 model. I thought it was a calibration problem...if there is anything like that with batteries.
When you say 60%, what do you mean exactly? What is the voltage reading on the controller?
All these quack Installer are just damaging people's battery
Many thanks!
