GerogeI:
If you are in band A,
To reduce your bill, and turn the 24 hours into advantage,
1. Put your refrigerator on half duty cycle, it should be off at night. You either use a timer switch (cost about 10k on Jumia) or you switch it off and on manually - labour intensive. Any night you forget is about 2 kwh or credit units or about N500.

2. Invest in grid tied Solar system. This takes advantage of the 20 hours power availability. You do not need to buy batteries, but you need a good Hybrid solar inverter with grid connection. For every 4 used solar panels, you will produce 1kwh of electricity daily. The more you have the more you produce. As a rule of thumb, each 300w solar panel will give you an average of 50w for 5 hours or 250wh or 0.25kwh.

A normal house with lighting TV and refrigerator, without Air conditioner consumes about 6 kwh daily. Putting your refrigerator on day cycle will reduce 1.5 kwh or credit units leaving 4.5. Adding 5 solar panels, will reduce it to 3.5 kwh. Adding 10 Solar panels will reduce it to 2.5 kW hour. Because you must use lighting and fan at night, you cannot go lower than 2.5 kwh daily without investing in Storage batteries which are the costliest part of solar with 2 or 3 years short life span.

At 2.5 kwh per day your electricity bill for band A will be 2.5 x30 days x N230= N18000 approx. Not bad for 24 hours light.

Me wey I don comot for NEPA since they put us to Band A without our consent

Now, it's solar in the day

Inveter at night

NEPA is to charge the inverter for night use

No be me go fund T-Pain new yatch..

Iyalaaya PHCN

Even my own neighborhood dey IKDC office right now with placards demanding we be returned to Band B

Na work no make me follow them

But sha, na me supply and write on the cardboard wey dem carry

Person wey just dey start with us

We go hear am!

maasoap:
Thank you.
I will save and keep this post. I'm not buying electricity units anytime soon. My remaining units will last till September next year at this rate that we're consuming power.
A quick question though: are you using special or separate bulbs with it or the ones you were using with Disco?

Use energy saving bulbs , irons and basic gadgets

CyrusVI:
There is a positivity in his statement and I'm surprised that even he isnt seeing it

We now have electric light more than ever before

Paying for Electricity has always been a problem. If most could pay, the Govt have no issues providing 24/7 light for us


I'm glad that under this PBAT era, Light has never been the issue.

Good one dude!

Under PBAT, electricity became elitistic because only the elite and rich can afford the exhorbitant tarrif

Electricity is supposed to be basic amenity for all

Even under the dumbest Buhari, there was no classification of ' Elitification' of light into different Bands

Now tell me, can Baba Kabiru the meatseller, or Iya Chiamaka the Ugwu seller or Mallam Ahmed the shoe maker afford Band A at N209 ?

So, does it mean the above do not deserve to use basic infrastructure like electricity as citizens?

And take note that these constitute vast majority of his grassroot support base as people who so much believe in him

These are the situations on ground while you are praising Tinubu

maasoap:
Even me self. I recharged like 300 units when we were temporarily place in band B before we were moved again to Band A. I haven't bought this shiity band A tariff yet. May be I should be planning for solar power too.
I should have recharged like 50k or 100k that time, chai!

Bro, with 1.5m, you can do solar and inverter

Just go to Alaba market and buy the components yourself ( Solar panels, Lithum Batteries, Inveter and solar reader)

Then get someone to fix for you and you will save money

It's the best decision I took!

Thank God for solar in the day

And inverter at night

I havent used the useless Band A since August

No be me go fund T-pain next private jet

Iyalaya Anybody!

morikee:
You see CNG was cheaper than this now it's getting more expensive because of high demand

CNG that used to be N110 before

Just wait for people to migrate en mass to it and see the way they will increase the price

Useless government

Can anything be more pathetic?
You remove subsidy, hike price and still make fuel scarce.

Is Tinubu no longer the Chicago graduate with Mobil experience
The magician who alone made Lagos the 4th economy?

O su mi ooo

You mean the five-man werey of NL?

That werey boy is a troll on nairaland but some of us actually tolerate his online banters

His day is incomplete without trolling some of us .

Omo werey!

At N209 per unit under lkeja Electric Band A

E no go better for una for turning electricity, which should be a basic infrstructure to elite thing because the poor can no longer afford it

Funniest thing is:

I ',m 50 , extremely independent woman and I have financial bouyance..

Yet, I still put cash at the back of my phone..

And I dont have any explanation for it..

I swear I am just seeing that our young girls do it also

wunmi590:


Please we pray for deportation, so that she can come and face the present wotowoto the present government is giving us...

People with hate speech will learn from this, please this should be followed to the latter...

Even if its jail term, she should be mandated to come and serve the jail term here in Nigeria, so that this our ajepako girls in prison will beat the hell out of her...

Haba, I no dey prison and I no fit fight

But we can comot 2 teeth sha

Fuel is selling for N700 in Lagos except NNPC stations

See shomolu people in complete darkness these days despite the 24 hours electrcity

Why? Because Shomolu has been moved to Band A at the rate of N209 per unit from Band B ( N62)

Residents cannot even afford basic infrastructure like electricity despite its abundance

Dem dey enjoy darkness in the midst of massive supply of electricity by IKDC Band A

85% of them are APC supporters

They cannot complain because na Jagaban, their god..

Me keh? I dont switch to full solar and inverter electricity generation

No be me go pay for Tinubu next cruise ship or private jet!

Iyalaaya Anybody!

2Radii:
Come out from the prison, keel the both of them silently and everybody should move on with their losses.

Instant and 100% suspicion.

Real protests will start in :

1. Petrol or gas station
2. PHCN office
3. Law enforcement office: Police station, EFCC office , LASTMA, etc

All unplanned and unexpected..

You see , that 'Unity' part of the Anthem eh

Na only for unified wickedness

24 hours on petrol queue

Petrol for N650 from N185

Forceful migration of virtually all Lagosians to Band A at N209 per unit

Transportation 1000% increase

Food and essentials unaffordable by all except the rich and thieving politicians

Yes, Tinubu is doing a lot to ' Bring Relief"

Yeah, sure!

11Monkeys:
What is the genesis of the problem? Can anybody put me in the know?

A south african internet user 'ordered a Bolt ride' from south africa from a Nigerian rider , gave him wrong directions , wasted his fuel, posted on South African social media space and South Africans started dragging Nigerians

Now Nigerians are retaliating and they are already asking us to stop

But for where? Trust your naija pipu na
