Primistine:
In other words, I'm saying, if you spend X million setting up a solar system for yourself, how long before you spend that same amount, say if you're buying fuel every day to power a gen set.

Quick context and assumptions
We are modelling a typical 5 kW PV system for a 3-bedroom house with some night storage. For this particular scenario, deciding between a lead-acid (tubular) battery or a lithium battery doesn't make much difference, but I've added prices nonetheless. The inverter is a 5 kVA hybrid.

Fuel price for petrol generators is taken as ~₦850–₦900 per litre. Small genset fuel burn for a 5–6.5 kVA unit is estimated at 1.5–3 L/hr, depending on load; we use 2.0 L/hr as a conservative everyday average for calculations.

For a 5kW solar system, you may spend upwards of N6million. (Check image below)

So, depending on your current use of gen to power your house, your spending on fuel should look like this:

1) Light users: 2 hours/day → 4 L/day → ₦3,600/day → ≈ ₦1,314,000/year.

2) Moderate users: 4 hours/day → 8 L/day → ₦7,200/day → ≈ ₦2,628,000/year.

3) Heavy use: 8 hours (or more)/day → 16 L/day → ₦14,400(or more)/day → ≈ ₦5,256,000(or more)/year.


So, moment of truth...If you spent, say ₦5,890,000 for a 5kW solar system with the number of components as suggested in the image, it would take:
4.48 years, if you're a light generator user using 2 hours/day → 4 L/day
1.12 years if you're a heavy generator user using 16 L/day → ₦14,400(or more)/day

PS: Of course, there's a lot of simplification and assumption in this example, so please take note that real-world results will vary.

So, over to you? Is worth switching to solar?

6 million will get u 17kva working solar and 24 hours light for a three bedroom

I get your point bro. But still yet there is still levels to this. The guy literally have so many videos. Hell he must have had few others without videos and if you watched the videos. None of them was hiding their face or something. They were all relaxed and enjoying the ride

Ringstonemasks:
I av had sex with more than 1000 women counting from when i started in primary 5...

It not a big deal.

You don't get it... Out of the thousand you had sex with. Name five that are in higher position like Governor daughter or something like that. Not just some girls walking around the street bro

xana101:
Any child I train is my child. If I train the child to university level. The child only know me as his father. The mum will never come out open that the child is not mine. Hence I marry the woman legitimately. DNA will only coz me heart break. I have 2 kids. Not that I trust my wifet. My kids are 14yrs and 8yrs. Both of them only know me as their father…. For my peace of mind and the love I have for them. I let the sleeping dog lye. Don’t let a woman kill u b4 ur time. Those kids are innocent. It’s the useless woman fault. So men, take care of ur self. Look good and no kill Urself for woman. They don’t worth it. I tell u From experience.

Dey play. No go do Dna you hear

Deandean:
In an effort to avoid admitting you don’t know the difference between RAM and ROM you have said more rubbish.
iPhone 4 doesn’t run a 2GB ram and 2GB ram has never been experimented in it to know how it’ll perform , how do you compare what is a fallacy with a reality.
I can flip it and say S22 ultra can hold a 512mb rRam only Samsung choose not to use it. And then start comparing and imagined s22 with 512mb ram with an existing iPhone 15 promax. Does that make sense to you.

Generalization stands for all , and I ddnt say all.
Admit you know nothing about phones. And if you are looking for performance and durability buy an XS over S22. This is general knowledge. Nobody that knows phones all over the world argues optimization and performance with iPhones. Just say they are overpriced. Yes i agree. You dont get to do many fun stuffs like you have on android, true. It uses a lock-in strategy, fine. But the Apple ecosystem is 20 years ahead of android. Android is an open source OS. It’s a one size fits all system. It can never be optimized to match an IOS.

Stop arguing rubbish bros.

Bro stop with all your cap alright
Iphones don't make mid-range phones like Androids. Even the iphone6s plus. 6s and other iphone were once flagships
So when comparing with other Androids. Be specific and not take a mid-range up with an iPhone. That's the issue with you iphone people. Flagships should be against flagships and all Iphones are flagships. They release phones like once in a year. Other brands could be three/four times or more in a single year

MichealPsalm:
Can you allow your family members use a device that will inconvenience them. Talk true no dey mislead people.

Stop saying what you don't know. Have been using Xiaomi for three years and still using. Total peace of mind compare to transision of tekno. Infinix and the likes

noobody:
Simple,
China is a big country,
China mainland is where speedaf operates from,and that is where Chinese ROM phones are used the most and sold,
But global versions phones mainly come from hong-kong,thou a part of china,but not on the china mainland,Hong-kong is more western and liberal than the conservative Chinese mainland,also global version/Google phones are mostly restricted in use on the mainland.
Speedaf doesn't ship from hong-kong as far I know.
Singapore post and DHL handles that

Make me understand better bro. Did you mean Chinese delivery or it must be Chinese Software?

noobody:
Chinese ROM phone ships via speedaf most times,

Don't go and risk same with Singapore post oo.

Why Chinese ROM though

noobody:
Chinese ROM phone ships via speedaf most times,

Don't go and risk same with Singapore post oo.

Have ordered in aliexpress before and got my stuff. It came through speedaf. Don't know about Singapore post

pannyman:
Got it on Aliexpress. Shipping was fast. It arrived in less than two weeks.

Walk me through that bro. How much it cost and all that. I do get afraid buying phones on aliexpress

jawalis:
Life generally. I have graduated from the Uni since October last year and nothing seems coming forth. I struggled so hard to see myself through my seasons in the university and now I’m emotionally drained. No job, I don’t keep friends, no relative is checking up and I’m gradually loosing my mind. Life indeed is not fair.

Life is not fair. I can relate to all that. People will hardly check on you when they know you're not doing good. You just have keep the hope alive and not give up. Better days ahead is true
Watch those keeping distant getting so close. Then you have to make use of your wisdom

adebayo987:
I have totally lost interest in staying in Nigeria

So any big funds you have now is to Japa

Loss of interest in things you once enjoyed is often a main symptom of depression. With the current situation of the country, where everybody is going through a lot, everyone is gradually losing interest in something.
If you think this through you will see that it’s not even growing up or adulthood, it’s just depression. If you have lost interest in activities that used to give you pleasure, you may also lose motivation to do things.

I know you are thinking about it right now, tell us,

What Are You Slowly Losing Interest In?

Don't know about other countries

In today’s world, laptops and smartphones are two of the most widely used devices for both personal and professional use.��
With the advancements in technology, both devices have become essential for people in their daily lives.

Interestingly, many young people in this part of the world, are not familiar with operating a computer. This includes some who have studied computer science and technology. Am I lying❓�

I was fortunate as my eldest sis owns a computer center, so I had early exposure and was able to gain a lot of knowledge through self-teaching. I did not have any formal instruction.

If you can see and read this post, that means you have a smartphone, YOU NEED A LAPTOP NOW.�
