Typically in this part of the world, power outage is part of our existence. There are communities that solely depends on fuel generators. A lot of our girls have been preyed on for just going to charge their phones at their neighbor’s apartment. Its is safe to say that 70% have backup power supply like the best invert battery in Nigeria.
This “70%” of Nigerians with backup power plan can be further broken down to:
- Solar/Inverter
- Handheld powerbanks
- Diesel/fuel generators
- Kerosene/Gas generators
- Firewood generator
It would amaze you that item 4 and 5 made our list. But they are still relevant even in advanced countries. They mainly used to produce heat mostly for cooking and keeping the house warm during winter.
Diesel/Fuel Generators
There is barely any home in Nigeria urban cities without a backup generator. These generators are not Eco friendly, they contribute to the number of greenhouse gases, they are usually noisy.
Solar/Inverter
Solar and inverter are household names that are barely found in most Nigerian homes for so many reasons. But I would be tackling battery life.
Battery Life
This could be define as the backup time or how long your inverter can backup your appliance until power is restored. This backup time is usually relative to Load and its measured in AmH. This could also mean the number of charge cycles until the battery out lives its usefulness.
A lot of clients complain about their very short backup time and this can be caused by numerous factors:
- Over load
- Bad installation
- Battery condition
All things being equal and you are using one of the best inverter batteries in Nigeria, am sure that you would have a longer backup time.
I visited lots of homes where the inverter project have been abandoned due to poor results. After my assessment, 95% of the inverter systems are intact but the batteries dead and gone. Which makes the whole inverter project look cost ineffective. To this effect, I have taken my time to compile the best inverter batteries near me.
