You are forcing me to reveal my brand.

Well I use Eastman tubular batteries.

Genus is equally very good.

The high end ones like Luminous and Sukam are superb but their cost is prohibitive.

matify83:
Most Indian brands should do.

They are mostly produced from the same source. It's Nigerians that give them the multiplicity of names you see in the market.

I used the Mtn Lumos inverter for 5 years. Powers all the bulbs in my house , charges my phones and laptops , charges a rechargeable standing fan.

Paid it off and still using it 4 years later. Total of 9 years it has served me now.

Never touched it, no fault at all.
@Nikashow please what is the name of that battery
One of my best investments.


I now have added a Bona solar freezer and its complete setup. Solar freezer works with only one battery but 3 solar panels.

I bought an inverter to switch from the freezer to light when everything in the freezer is ice block but the inverter almost always broke down so I just removed it completely.

Leaving the freezer on the one battery alone , 2 years running now and everything for my freezer na ice block.

I am still on grid, but I only use Nepa for Washing Machine, Blender and Microwave. I outsource my ironing to dry cleaner.


I have never owned a Generator.
@Nikashow what is the name of that battery, it's price and where to get it's original. I need to buy batteries this month end and I need guidance from someone already using a good one. Thanks.

matify83:
It's splendid!

I use a 3.5kva 12v kartel inverter and 4 220AH tubular batteries I connected in parallel to make 880AH.

I power virtually every thing in the house including an lg inverter AC for most of the afternoons , an lg inverter fridge/freezer and a bona solar chest freezer.

I've been fully off grid for going to 6 years by May and I don't have any regrets at all.

The installation was done DIY with little touch by my electrician.

We are back!

We hope this insightful conversation with Mr. Arnold Dublin-Green (Chief Investment Officer, Cordros Asset Management) makes up for our absence.

We discuss "The Past, Present and Future of Fixed income Vs Equities investing". He delves deep into how retail investors can structure their portfolio to harness the possible coming shift, mistakes retail investors make and how asking yourself, "what is in my hands?" can shape your investing practice/ world view.

Thanks for listening...

@Emmansoft, @Customstreet, @Mcy2 Please I already have stock account with Morgan Capital which I have found to be very okay.To diversify I want to open a second stock account with another low fees broker that also allows its clients direct live access to the trading floor, comparable to that of Morgan. My research on this thread pinpointed Stanbic brokers because of its relative low fees but going by the discussion here at page 6967 between BabsO2 and Omoeko to the effect that they monitor their orders to Stanbic through the portal of other stockbrokers, I now hesitate to go with Stanbic. Please which is the stockbroker whose fees is low and at the same gives investors direct access to the market like the Morgan's platform? My need is a broker with low fees (I do jijo) a platform with direct view of current market bids, offers and volume on real time basis. Suggestions are welcomed and I will do my due diligence before choosing. Thanks.

On November 11th I posted the above and few days after that post the market went down. MCY56 came out to reprimand me for advising people to trade with caution,even though I never mentioned her in my post. But I ignored.

When the market is on a bullish run all of us can claim to be experts but it's always sure that at some point water will find its level.

Nothing beats what I call Commonsense investing by using the EPS ,the Dividend yield and stock Liquidity as your basic insurance against an unexpected downturn in the market contrary to what some have been saying here. When you start valuing Nigerian stocks using standards that are beyond these Commonsense metrics you are already playing Russian roulette. This is not NYSE, this is Nigeria home of possibilities and shocks.

For those who bought high during the bull convert those investment to long term assets, it's a cycle the market will go up at some point. If you bought dividend paying stocks that's better.

When in Calabar, head to a place called Marina and board a boat or ferry to Oron. Ignorant me thought it was Creek Town.

Well, I've not been to Calabar in more than two years.

Gerrard59:
If I had seen this thread earlier, I'd have cautioned you travelling to Uyo via road. You probably should have taken a boat from Creek Town to Oron and use the road to Uyo. Due to the deplorable road situation, it's shorter. People have spent more than five hours on that Calabar - Uyo Road. Five years ago, the trip took not more than two hours and not more than an hour seven years ago (circa 30 - 45 mins).

After animal protein shopping at the Epe fish market then its time to relax, and we visited the Jubilee resort owned by the Lagos State Government. It is one of the most beautiful resorts I have seen in Lagos. It is beautiful and located in front of the Lagos Lagoon.

Epe is truly a beautiful destination that is under rated.

What is your background? What type of business have you done in the past? Why did you buy the property or how did you buy the property?

What is the source of the fund used in buying the property? What is the current condition of the property? Is the property currently generating any cash flow? How long have you bought this property?

Your answers to these questions will determine the type of counsel I can give you.

I am currently having some challenge with my WhatsApp. Send me a PM so that I can give you some useful information you may be interested in through mail.

The manufacturing company is in Kano and they need a major distributor in Lagos. I'm one myself in my state of residence.
