You don’t know that these days, Lithium batteries are getting cheaper. You probably didn’t do your research well enough. All your answers are on this thread.

With all the wealth of info made available here, you are still saying you dont have money for lithium. How much do you know will get you 2 nos of 12v tubular batteries for your 24v system? (Nerver forget you will use it at 50% DOD, let me not even talk about charge and discharge rate) And how much is 24v 100ah lifepo4 battery? undecided

2.5kvs inverter - Luminous/ Genus/ Euronet

Tubular batteries - GSR ,Haustrom,Luminous

Please note that presently good quality tubular batteries are more expensive than Lithium.So state your budget for the batteries and I am sure you will get something worth your money in the Lithium space.

One of our guys here @Valto sells good lithium batteries which s have vouched for. He has batteries within your budget.

Another recent popular name here is cworth but reviews here has shown that they are grade B cells. I don't know how true it is.

The other one is Deriy battery packs.

If I'm in your shoes right now I think I'd go with the first option.

It wouldn't be also bad if you mention your overall budget for the solar system you're planning for. It will enable people guide you properly.

since u can spare 600k on batteries, this is a far better option
24v 2.5kwh lifepo4 lithium battery +24v 3.5kwh hybrid inverter =930k
or

I am selling 2 luminous 200ah/12v voltcharge batteries of or roughly 4kwh. Used for less than 3 months. 300k each. 600k for the pair. Luminous will last you 6 years and still hold 80% of charge. You can drop your digits if interested.

Those prices are for battery AND inverter, not just battery.

What's your budget for the battery?

Can this inverter power only a 2Hp air conditioner considering the starting power draw?
OR
Can you suggest any other standard inverter either standalone or hybrid that can be used solely for a 2Hp regular air conditioner?

I doubt it can start a 2hp air conditioner. I'ld suggest a 10kva inverter for that. However there is a device called a soft starter that can help with that initial surge from AC or fridge. Check online for sellers or DIY procedure. I've seen one diy kit before

You need to be upfront about your full budget, your load and what you want the new system you set up to be able to do.

If not you are actually wasting people's time with this piecemeal approach. Just state everything at once for the best advice. Shalom.

No one will be able to get 80 % use from this battery after 6 years if one intends to draw fully down (cycle) that 4kwh once every week talk less of once every day.

@Newbies

In 2025, only buy tubular if you are confident you have steady light or you know you will have more than enough solar s to ensure your batteries are adequately charged and never really do work.


The only advantage Lead acid has is that you will be able to get good money selling as scrap, which is very likely to happen if you plan to use a lead acid battery for 3 years with daily use and inconsistent power to charge it.

Lifepo is practically worthless as scrap, however it should never really become scrap in the first place as it has vampire blood flowing through it if used properly!

Also if you insist on Tubular or lead acid, only buy new. If you want to buy secondhand it must be a steal and you should aim to buy slightly above scrap value. Unfortunately I cannot call 300k a steal in this situation.

Guy with 600k you will get llitjium.battery 25.6v 100 ah.Cworth is 555k,Valto should be within the 600k range, @Mrreed Lifepo4 of same capacity is #420k. and if you can wait,Deriy battery is about 385k.So you see you have more than enough options for LFP that will give you same capacity as 2 tubular batteries and last linger,charges faster

Please delete the thought of tubular from your subconscious mind grin.The enemy wants to have you but we will pray for you grin

Please leave tubular forever.
