I have been seeing customs duty charges here....

I don't want to believe I will still be charged customs duty for personal items like shoes & wrist watch after spending heavily in shipping through DHL.

You will be charged sir.

Besides, shoes and clothes, maybe not wrist watches, are part of items in the restricted importation list even though that doesn't mean you can't bring 'em in. But with the unreasonable peculiarities of things Nigerian which the customs is part of, you may be taxed or worse an insane or greedy officer may decide to have them seized espevially if the items are beautiful and expensive. Of course you know that ends as his personal belongings.

Apparently this is not clear. But I'll use as much layman's terms as possible to explain.

The scrotrum (rugae bag that holds the balls) is so shaped and structured for different reasons one of which is to carefully control the temperature of the two balls in it within acceptable limits of temperature that is conducive for formation and survival of sperm cells and the production of hormones (regulatory chemicals of the human body). This bag can contract to "tightly pack" the balls when the temperature is cold or relax to give a "dangling" appearance when temperature is warm.

In the womb, the male baby develops its balls inside the abdomen but when delivery is getting close, the two balls slowly descend and enter the scrotrum (bags). When male babies are born, the doctors examine the bags to determine if the balls are there. If not, the mother may be adviced to regularly check for it and if by 5 or 6 months the bags are still empty then the child is brought in for evaluation.

If it remains within the groin or abdomen after 6 months, an undesvetnded tested is likely. It requires quick surgical fix otherwise it proves to have undesirable health risks such as infertility and increased risk for testicular cancer, which is understandably true because the balls which should be within well regulated temperature will now be exposed to the persistently hot mileau of the abdomen or groin. Like chicken eggs which requires tightly controlled temperature to hatch failure of which it remains as eggs which then rots away.

Parents are responsible for observing their children over the years leading to puberty for features that are off which should immediately be reported to the doctor. I remember wify being worried over something as flimsy as a tiny foreskin fragment remaining for some months after the circumcision of our boy. To her, the circumcision was not perfected at that point being a medical person that has herself either witnessed or done a number of such procedures. She was sore worried it may affect the child's manly (sexual) functions. Though the redundant skin later slid off but it still took some convincing from me and later her observation of the presence of normal early morning penile turmescence (erections) in the boy for her to rest her mind.

FreeSpirited:
Stop talking Bullshit... How does it relate with metabolic disorder?? smh

Don't be like this. How is it unrelated? cheesy

Endocrine and metabolic disorders can indeed co-exist in a number of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndromes.

Maybe you're not a medical personnel though. It's not bad to have dissenting opinion on issues but don't act like your own opinion is the incontrovertible one. And even if your opinion is the gospel truth, which it is not, that's no reason to be brash; that is not a nice way to disagree.

Having said that, the OP's case is not something to trivialise. He is advanced in age and should HAVE negotiated some developmental stages before now, stages which he himself feels he has not experienced. This is usually one of the first symptoms patients themselves notice that makes them to seek medical opinion. And I think the OP was a little slack in acting. He should have complained to his parents when he is around 22 years and notices features off with his secondary sexual characteristics. If he is shy about talking to his parents, information abound on the internet these days (the luxury we did not have as teenagers) to arm yourself with when going to talk to your parents or the doctor about it.

I don't subscribe to the "do not to worry", "you're blessed with not having to shave down there", "you're blessed with baby face and girly voice to sing", "you're just a late bloomer" and "as long as you have erection, then you need not worry" responses. There are enough worries for person for this world already and adding the issue of having to visit the doctor in order to give woman belle to it is not something desirable.

Thanks if I may will it be much or is there anyway to determine how much one can pay?

There is a percentage of the cost price of the item that customs usually calculate, that will be your payable duty. I can't really remember the percentage now but people here will help.

The price of the item will be written on the package by the seller so the customs use it to do their calculation.

Now not paying the duty thing is sometimes a thing of luck. As per phones, laptops, tablets etc, the officers are usually eagle-eyed on those so with such items there is 90% chance that you will be taxed, there is of course a 10% that you will escape; note my deliberate use of the word escape.

So i have a bunch of questions.

[quote author=earthrealm post=93164144]3. Any lifepo4 seller inhouse, no time to import. Am looking at 300ah 48v. Performance of my fla has reduced drastically. Planning an upgrade

See heh, for this one just prepare like that kain 1.5 mil. Last time I chatted a guy, he had 48v 105AH on offer for 480k. I got 12v105ah and 24v105ah from him months ago; planning an upgrade I sought for the 48v from him. He's the same guy Ojeysky uses.

earthrealm:
4. Lowest price standing fan, dont care if its not rechargeable.

That QASA standing fan may come in handy here. Not rechargeable but AC/DC 12v input and can also do well on about 18v 60watts solar panel plugged into the port. Comes with alligator clips and a 240vac to 12vdc power paxk included. Got two for around 11k5 each on Jumia about 8 months ago. Last time I checked it's around 17k. I'll help you check if it's still available.

It’s two 250v solar panels and this happens without any load on the system since my inverter is turned off. I only switched it on at 7:30 and the drop to 70% is almost instantly and it further drops to 50% then from 50% downward it takes longer for it to drop. Moreover the battery is just about 6months old... I don’t know if it’s bad already... Although I had a faulty charge controller I just got a new one and I noticed this... I mostly use four lights and charge laptop with it I don’t use fans or my TV with it since it will drain fast.. I don’t know if a 12v 200ah battery can do better than what mine is currently giving me. I had issues with the charge controller from when I installed the system a few months ago.. I need advice on what to do.

I understand the batteries are 12v in series. I think as someone said, you might wanna use multimeter to check the true voltages of the battery to be sure the percentage voltage indicator on your device is correct and does not need calibration.

Take measurements of the batteries when it's full and take measurements at different discharge states comparing it to a SoC chart (available online). The fact that you just changed your SCC may mean that the faulty one before it was changed has had some negative effects on the battery bank or the new one do not/is not programmed to take the battery thru the necessary stages of charging and does not even charge it to full, reason you need to use a multeter to measure the voltages when it shows 100% full.

There is a BTS PSW inverter that I just gave out. When it's charging lead acid chemistry batteries, 100% ranges from 13.5v to14.5v while 80% is at 12.8v. When it's not charging, it sees 12.8v as 100% and 12.6v as 80%. It's a little different when it's on 12v LFP though. So the voltage used as SoC in these things is not the gold standard.

Your loads don't seem to be much and 24v 100ah dropping that fast on 60 watts laptop needs some diagnostics. It's advisable that you decipher what the problem truly is before you conclude it's battery and going ahead to change the batteries.

What kind of SCC do you have installed?

Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ceaser: 7:58pm On Aug 23, 2020

zinodizt:
A fully charged battery at 4:30 pm with my charge controller reading 100% and as at 7:30 it drops to 70%... with the inverter switched off... is the battery bad... I use a 12v 200ah single battery hooked to two panels....

Did it start doing this of late or that's always been the backup duration you get since the battery got installed?

Your load too is a determining factor, that's assuming that the battery is in excellent condition. So you might wanna look into the loads too.

You did not mention the ratings of your panel, but whatever it is I assume that your panels working to charge the battery during sun hours is likely sufficient to sustain your battery at full SoC with or without loads on the system but soon as the sun goes down by around 6pm or insolation starts to drop at around 5pm, the battery takes over hence the percentage drop, the rate and rapidity of which is dependent on the loads.

Thanks for this. Please I don't know the difference between Series and Parallel connection. Hiw does this affect the battery reading please?

I feel you should get acquainted with more of the common things you'll come across as a DIY solar enthusiast so as to make the experience easier and sweeter. Battery connection methods is one of those.

You batteries reading different voltages apart is what can be called "batteries imbalance" and it can present in both parallel or series connections. It has disadvantage which is that the battery with the lower voltage is likely bad, hopefully salvageable, and ultimately the bad battery will bring down the good one with it so that the two batteries eventually get bad.

Refer to the attached picture for a diagrammatic representation of battery connections.

Don't forget to visit that link posted earlier on. It will also be good for you go to thru the pages, at least skimming thru 'em if you don't have the luxury of time. It will help you to get grasp of the subject matter especially questions about the battery connection methods and problems that may arise therefrom.

Please help on this situation.

I have two 200AH battery, and I observed that when it shows low battery, one battery will be reading 10.5V and another 12.2V.

My concern is why is the inverter not drawing consumption evenly from both batteries. Thank you.

First you didn't state how the two batteries are connected - In series or in Parallel.

Funny enough this has not happened in all the years a TV has been in the kitchen, and expectedly so. Having it in the kitchen will mean not frequently sneaking out to the living room to take peeks at the screen thereby forgetting that there is food on the burner.

I have been deliberate not to introduce my household to Zeeworld, so since contact has not been established, addiction is not present. I actually have that channel and other Indian channels scrambled. Thankfully her busy schedule at workplace precludes the privilege of toying around with different channels on the TV at work thereby coming across Zeeworld and developing interest in it.

But of course Africa magic movies and Movies magic for her and cartoon for the kids is non-negotiable.

The AC is another matter - power consumption to cool a warm to hot room would definitely be higher than average and presupposes that one has a suitable sized inverter and battery bank and a ready power source to replenish whatever was used.

This is one issue that cannot be ignored.

I have considered this before as well when the option of heat extractor was not looking promising. If your kitchen size and pocket size fits why not

NiyiOmoIyunade:
Ideally you want both an heat extractor and an AC. This is an investment that will surely pay off as the Madam will be very happy with you.

If budget pressed then an heat extractor suffices.

Of course with much power comes much responsibility and you now have to find a way to power these extra appliances whenever the kitchen is in use. If there is no sure means to power them as needed, then one may not bother putting money into acquiring them in the first place.

Thanks. The average consumption of most extractors I can across online have been modest, circa 60 watts of I clearly recall.

But the noise of those cooking hoods no be here. I have tried checking out a few available around me and I have reservations about the extra noises. I know you'll say after all na Madame workplace e be so complaints of any noises should be from her not me. cheesy

Just request for extension of one month. For all you care, your item might be in Nigeria already but NIPOST laziness is delaying delivery.

30 days extra will have tipped the item transit days to more than 100 days, so in worst case scenario when your item does not arrive or does not get delivered, more than 100 days in transit should further increase your chances of getting favourable trade dispute arbitration.

I run a timer switch on my freezer so it goes off at 5pm but when there is public utility I manually adjust it to be permanently on, unfortunately this is not so optimal as if utility goes off or on days when sun is not smiling and my battery is depleting am forced to head to location of the freezer to switch it back to timer mode or off as the case may be. Sometimes this happens at wee hours.

Thanks to @ceaser who triggered my curiosity about Sonoff, so I got the basic recently and now I can easily switch off from any location. Unfortunately I got the R2 version which does not have mqtt option (and I don't yet have the ingredients to flash the device with tasmota firmware) so for now am stuck with on and off from the app. Hopefully in near future it will be integrated with homeassistance when my 4CH R3 version arrives or I get to flash tasmota. Overall as it stands it's an improvement over my previous set-up.

On that note, I have a timer switch for sale for anyone interested

Is that stuff manual?

I took delivery of the AC sinometer about three weeks ago. It controls only the fridge. The freezer is 24/7.

So apparently things are improving with deliveries, although NIPOST is still footdragging seriously. Someone that was supposed to pick up an item for me got there around 4:02pm only to be told that they usually close by 2pm because of Corona. I mean ever since lockdown has been lifted and people asked to resume to work.

An item that's been 114 days in transit suddenly changed status update a huge leap from "dispatched to overseas" in May to delivery today all within 2 days. SMS received for pickup. Singapore Post.
