After 15 years of debate, still no clear winner. This post started 2010 !

WHAT IS TOTAL NUMBER OF REGISTERED VOTERS FOR THE TWO REMAINING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. THAT IS OREDO AND IKPOBA.

Is this still available?

So where can we buy authentic cosmetics online ? Abi na all of them be fake?

Bye bye to buying things online.

Revolution2022:
Fake plenty pass original.

HONESTLY THIS IS BEGINNING TO SOUND TRUE. QUITE UNFORTUNATE. SO WHAT IS THE ROLE OF STANDARD ORGANISATION OF NIGERIA AND Federal Competition & Consumer Protection Commission IN ALL THIS ?

Omihanifa:
Let me just tell you this today, majority of the items on Jumia and Konga are either outright fake, aliexpress, or overpriced. To now make matters worse, they don't even have price control. Imagine a vendor selling nivea roll on for 3k per one when with 3k you go buy 3 of thesame roll on

GOOD MORNING.
I BOUGHT CERAVE MOISTURIZING LOTION FROM KONGA BUT IT DOES NOT SMELL OR FEEL ORIGINAL.
DONT THEY CHECK AUTHENTICITY AND ORIGINALITY OF PRODUCTS SOLD BY THERE VENDORS ?
I ALSO NOTICED GREAT DIFFERENCES IN PRICES OF EXACT SAME PRODUCT ON THERE SITES.
FOR EXAMPLE VENDOR A SELLS CERAVE RESURFACING RETINOL SERUM FOR 13,500 AND ANOTHER VENDOR FOR 22,500. CAN THEY BOTH BE OF THE SAME QUALITY ?
HAS ANYBODY EXPERIENCED THIS BEFORE ?

THANKS ALL.

Please help

please help

Kindly help.
And must runners be used to make it firmer ? Will POP ceiling fall if runners are not used ? Somebody should please help answer this questions. Thank

Does anybody have this shirt size ?

MINE IS LONG SLEEVE LENGHT OF 38 INCHES. MOST STORES HAVE 36 INCHES.

MY MONEY IS THERE TOO. SO SAD. NOBODY IS GIVING ANY INFO.

Any news ?

BATTERIES INSTALLED. THANKS ALL.

Penuelseun:
Oga you are the one confusing yourself, I even sent you a picture to make the explanation simple, all the advice here has been pointing towards the same thing, that you can only connect all the batteries in parallel if your inverter is 12v. But because the inverter is 24v, the connection will be 2 in series and parallel. Mind you, you are not loosing any power if that is your fear

BEST RESPONSE SO FAR. THANK YOU SIR. BEST PART IS ' you are not loosing any power if that is your fear'. THIS IS HOW TO SPEAK TO A LAYMAN. THANK YOU OGA PENUELSEUN. YOU ARE THE BEST JARE. I SINCERELY THANK EVERYBODY FOR THERE CONTRIBUTION. REGARDS

Coolgent:
Oh no, though it's not my profession but if you happen to be in northwest i can link you with a professional, alternatively youtube will assist you.

Pls link me sir

Coolgent:
I suggest you should hire a professional to do the work for you in order to avoid any eventuality

That is exactly my problem !! How do I know a professional. Too many quacks claiming to be pros and arguing among themselves. I reside at the far north. Not Lagos, Port Harcourt or Abuja. And everybody is scared of coming to my area due to banditry and kidnapping!!! My objective is getting as much amp hours as possible from the batteries. That is why I want full parallel configuration. But someone here on nairaland said that will blow up the 5kva, 24v inverter. Another said it wont. I dont really know who is correct.

obinna37:
your inverter is 24v it can't work in parallel

THANK YOU SIR. THE REASON WHY IT CAN'T WORK IN PARALLEL IS BECAUSE IT IS 24V. Much better answer. THANKS

Penuelseun:
connect it and burn your inverter, since all the advice you have been receiving here is not enough

HOW AND WHY WILL IT BURN THE INVERTER ? WHEN YOU WANT TO TALK SUPPORT IT WITH FACTS AND FIGURES !! READ ALL THE COMMENTS. NOBODY HAS ADVISED AGAINST CONNECTING ALL 4 BATTERIES IN PARALLEL.

Coolgent:
I have exact model of power star inverter W9 5kva 24v.
Currently using 2 200ah deep cycle batteries.
My connection is parallel.
So far am enjoying it for about 1 month...
Average load at night is 20 10 watts bulbs, 2 ceiling fans, 8 cctv cameras, 3 tv sets
I can get 10 hrs out of the charge.

NB: four panels of 310 watts has been installed today to augment the nepa charging

THANK YOU SIR. SO CAN I CONNECT 4 UNITS 220ah semi deep cycle tubular batteries in parallel ?

Awaiting response

Penuelseun:
since your inverter is 24v, you connect 2 batteries in series and the 2 in parallel. Like this

THANK YOU SIR. GOD BLESS YOU SIR. MAY THE GOD ALMIGHTY REWARD YOU ABUNDANTLY.
But sir, why is half parallel and half series? Cant everything be parallel?

Picture sent

Picture sent

greenmonk:
Check the name plate on your inverter and furnish the parameters here for proper advice

From the panel I think inverter is 24v. Not 12v as I said earlier.

Nukilia:
I believe these images would be of help. Most 5kva use 24 V - 48 V. Kindly see the connection in the image

THANK YOU SIR. I APPRECIATE SIR. BUT THIS IS TOO TECHNICAL SIR. CAN YOU EXPLAIN IN SIMPLE ENGLISH OR BETTER STILL PLAIN YORUBA. LOL !! I SIMPLY ASKED FOR WHY YOU CHOSE PARALLEL OVER SERIES NOT CONNECTION DIAGRAM. THANK YOU SIR

showafrica:
No method is better just choose the one that suits your purpose. Parallel gives you high current and same voltage while series gives you higher voltage and same current. More current, bigger wires and heat but its reliable not to fail in the middle of work. In Series, if one battery fails, everything shuts down.

Thank you sir. God bless sir. Please which one increases overall amp hour capacity? Which makes battery last longer ?
Which allows for deep discharge of battery ?
My 4 batteries are Muiti-power 12v tubular semi-deep cycle.

Any other suggestion?

Nukilia:
Keep batteries in parallel

Why sir ? Kindly explain sir. So that I will be able to make an informed decision. The inverter is 5kva.

Good day
I have 4 units 220w 12v batteries to connect to my inverter. Two technicians are here arguing as to Serie is better and vice-versa. Which is better in simple layman's explanation ? No technical stuff please as i am not an expert. thanks
