I'm in Nigeria getting this speed with starlink.
Never got this high before with residential.

400+mbps 🙆🏾‍♂️🙆🏾‍♂️🙆🏾‍♂️🙆🏾‍♂️

Mummy see oh!

Location: rural up North!

It's 2024 and people still use potato to record videos. Which kain video quality be this na?

By the way, shey she was miss Taraba. Will she go see her Taraba people and get good welcome?

She's a winner!

How do you guys clean your solar panels pls?

I live in far up northern Nigeria and we've dust storms on a regular. So panels are often covered in thick dust, though they still work.

I usually clean montly with water and omo and soft mop.

I'm hearing now that omo is too strong for panels and can erode whatever protective film abi anti reflective film on the panel. Too much Oyibo for me.

What do you guys use to clean your panels or what's the best safe way?

Is omo really bad? Can I substitute with dish washing fluid or car wash fluid or what?

I am a big fan of Wizkid, he's better than the other dude.


As far as today's music is concerned in naija, Wizkid is the best among his generation

This is how I rank them in Nigeria

1. Wizkid
2. Burna Boy
3. Davido
4. Rema

However, Burna Boy is more recognized outside Nigeria than the rest

Only hype by fans is carrying that song. The two songs, piece of heart and Kese by wizkid, also the Awuke by Davido are all not good songs.
They are songs fans will hype for 2 weeks and after that no one is singing them anywhere on the streets coz they wack.

And that's just a kitten. A very cute one.

My love for cats ehn. Love them more than anything.

Cats are intelligent. They can open your window from outside and enter your house after they've observed you for long how you open the window from outside.

I used to have 4 cats plus 2 other intruders that knew how to open my window.

He's lucky that's a kitten. Try and scare or hit that stick on an adult cat in a closed room like yours, you'll be calling more names while being driven to ICU

Can a 14yrs old girl child get pregnant? Abi what such of age reduction is dis!!

My daughter (adopted) gave birth at 13. She was pregnant at 12.
Girls can get pregnant at even 9 years once they've experienced menstruation. There are records of even lower ages below 9.

mikeayus:
Thanks for this tips. please I want to know the best voltage charge setting for my 12v 200A Lead Acid battery

Bulk at 14.4v
Float at 13.6v

See where and what sane countries are thinking. Whereas us we still thinking of how to repair Abuja kaduna road and Lagos-ibadan road without risks of bandits.

Anyway...
For those who say they've never seen N5 or N10 in long time, I've it here in bundles oh in the North. Be like they pushed all of them to north coz they still use it in market without knowing these notes have no market value again.

Aunty drop phone, open bress and give children

Are you talking of this N5 and N10?

I've them in bundles.

Have bundles of N20 and N50 too.

In deep north people still spend it but that's because we are ignorant here of what's happening in larger Nigeria. We've no idea these notes are now totally useless. So we keep spending them in bulk.

Its seems all the 5s to 50s are all in the North 😭😭😭

If churches celebrate birthday, then Catholic Church would be celebrating 2000yrs anniversary being the first ever church.

obitobe:
what make of panels are this and what wattage

Jinko straight from fouani, so I'm sure it's original. 555w
Many fake jinkos in the market

kristien4:
whats your overnight consumption? Seems u dont use Air Conditioner on it?

Highest 4-5kwh total overnight. That's why a 4kw panel setup charges it back up in 2 hours before 10am.

I don't use AC, but I get like 3 fans for my room 😭😭

dollarnaira:
Your type need to be reported to those responsible for grid collapse. Reason you don't need to pity your set up. Plug things, plug "unplugables". Enjoy your investment bro. Nice one.

I live in a forest neighbouring sambisa forest 🤣🤣🤣. We don't have nepa here and will never have nepa for the next 50 yrs.
Grid collapse stories is breeze passing my ears.

Sapiosexuality:
I don't really want to spoil this but I had to let this off my chest once and for all. When I was ready for my installation, his lack of response to my 'stupid questions', even after reading it, made me go elsewhere.

He's human. Maybe he had malaria or typhoid that day na. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Dam5reey1:
You are degrading your batteries charging low..

At least na me Daft...

Is will prowse daft too?

The man is ignorant with his opinion.
When charging LFP, it can take you hours to charge from 2.9v to 3.38v. But from 3.38v to 3.65v can take you even just 8-10 minutes.

When you are discharging from 3.65v with load, it can take you just 5 mins to go down to 3.37v or lower which is the settling volt. That's just how LFP works.

I knew he's ignorant when he said you are losing 40% of charge like say one will get extra hours from charging to 100% over 90%. With load it won't take you 5 mins to get back to 3.37 or lower.

A good advice he gave is that ONCE IN A WHILE, you charge full to activate balancing at top voltage. But active balancers of today, you can set them to start active balancing at 3.4v or higher based on your taste.

Note also he mentioned temperature. These people live in places of 25ºc highest, and you live in 31-45ºc (my place is 41c). You'll just be stressing your cells and killing it over time.

Any way, we all should do as we like

obitobe:
Does that panel generation charge your battery fully every day. Even in bad weather do it get to 100% or what range does it get to.

The panels are even too much. Every day before 10:30am battery is fully charged from what was used at night. Even yesterday when there was no strong sun but cloud, it was giving 2.4kwh at 9am

twosquare:
WAWU...isn't that an overkill? Especially the 4400w solar panels...

Anyway, how much did you buy the 14kwh lithium battery, and which brand?

I need guidance on how to go about it...and if 1 million can get me a good setup for that.

Yes, it's an overkill. Don't want to worry about expansion in next 10yrs.

Setup, I spent around 6m. The battery alone was near 3m.
So 1m can't my setup. I'll think 2m can you a decent setup if you are doing from scratch

bassdow:
My own setUp no dey get opportunity dey idle at all except I OFF am which is almost impossible.

If connected appliances ain't mission critical, why leave idle when you could switch off.

Aside idle power draw, how much do the inverter it's self consume ?

We put the inverter on idle just to test idle consumption. Not because there are moments we leave the inverter idle. No one does that.

twosquare:
Which Kva will you suggest for someone with these needs:


Two Fans: 80W + 35W = 115W
Freezer: 110W
Laptop: 45W
Router: 37W
TV: 50W
Decoder: 30W
Phone Charging: Approximately 5W each (around 10W for both)

Total for Regular Use: 397W

Occasional Use Appliances:

Blender: 350W
Iron: 800W (??)

Thanks

I use same consumption as you, yet I use 14kwh lithium battery and 4400w solar panels, and 5kva inverter.
Na your money go determine wetin you go use

helinues:
I don't know if Peter Obi is not even consciously aware about some dirty questions which some journalists always throw at him. It's the same journalists that will twist whatever you say.

The more you talk, the more you will be dragged.

He has been so reckless lately.

Atiku stays silent for 4yrs immediately after he loses every election till next election and you all say he's not concerned about Nigeria but only himself.

Peter Obi, as every reasonable Nigerian, involves himself regularly with the state of the nation, and giving high profile life coaching interviews like the last one at honest bunch, and you say he should better remain silent in-between elections.

Its certain we are confused. I won't argue with that. But that we see interviews filled with life lessons as unnecessary shows how addicted we are to backwardness.

God bless that man Obi. May he give us more learning moments

maasoap:
Please do.


I heard you. But even with that level of commitment, your wife can still divorce you, separate from you or even the worst which I don't wish for your wife. You don't have control over those.

You are right. She can do all those. She can even poison me to det. I can't control those.

What I can control is what I can do, and that is, I'll never divorce my wife and mum of my children for whatever reason. She can do it, but I'll never do it.

Ajacent:
This is misleading, that woman is a content creator and has nothing to do with the King Solomon of our time

I guessed as much coz Equatorial guinea speaks Spanish and not really French.

maasoap:
Not saying you should, different men with different levels of tolerance. In this age that Hep B is flying around, the guy didn't use condoms. Just look at the number of women he was having raw sex with!!

Those are things we can check on.
But I'm not depriving my children of their mom. Only death can do that.

maasoap:
Are you sure the husband is their biological father? Any man whose wife is among them needs to pay for paternity tests ASAP

I agree with you to do test.
But what if they are your children.

For me I'm not sending her away. She has got enough punishment for her crime which is the national, self and her family disgrace. She'll live with that all her life.
But I'm not going to suffer my children for the crime of one woman who happens to be their mum just coz she cheated.

NAVYdogg:
This guy go scatter plenty homes

He go scatter 400 homes

Sonnobax15:

Honestly,this saga of the equitorial Guinea Ebang has really taught Alot of men lessons....... Trusting your woman will be your greatest undoing as a man.....

TBH,I don't see any need confronting the whorrre..... Instead,just send her back to her parents house ASAP.

The mother of your children? Just like that?

dustmalik:
In the case of Nigeria, the reason Starlink suspended residential and roaming plans is because NCC asked them to revert to old pricing. If you try to place an order in Nigeria, this is the message that greets you.

Ewoooooo

My fears have become reality 😭😭😭😭😭

jmaine:
Relax... It takes a great deal to just exit...

That's a relief. Thanks

Nonso92:
I have to return it back to starlink

Wow.. They don't usually ask to return router except it's the dish

Bro, are we finished?

Starlink about to exit Nigeria like so?

Govt pls let them do their price increase. We are not complaining that much.

38k is just $22 per month and they can't survive with that.

The 75k is $44 and that's fair enough.

Its not their fault. It's you government that destroyed the naira but want business to keep old prices and die off?
This is why we are losing out in big companies in Nigeria. They are are exiting.

Tinubu and APC are the death of Nigeria.
We are finished 😭😭😭

Nonso92:
UPDATE
I reached out to starlink to complain about my slow Internet issue, and they concluded that my kit had a gps issue, that why my Internet has been poor.
They sent over a new kit and even offered me one month free subscription.
I just installed the new kit today and I have been monitoring the internet.
Previously I was getting under 5mbps at every speed test, but now it's gone up to 20. I'm guessing there might be an update on the new kit, then the speed would improve.

Can I buy the bad kit from you?
