Yesterday was a great day especially when rain was falling and after rain fell d surge was crazy.... But plenty accidents on lekki express. As in I saw more dan 5 different accidents...

Ok

Jamie90:
Civic and I spent 700k. Bought kit and cylinder myself.

Pls which car u dey use and how much b d cng

Jamie90:
Exactly…. I been no reason CNG as fuel na 739 but at 1,330, omooo!!! Difference is insane.

If u negotiate trip and we reach drop off and d person no come pay u wetin una agree wetin u go do. When no b say na offline

dapotemi:
Guys, always RENEGOTIATE every trip! Make it a standard. I have been travelling recently (PH, Abuja, Akwa-ibom) and I can confirm that all the ride that we booked, every one of them was renegotiated! The price on the app is meaningless.
The only ride I got without negotiation was immediately I landed at MMA2.. Airport to Alapere for 4k. Took d driver almost 40 mins. That would've cost me like 8-10k in PH!
Pls start renegotiating every ride. Nobody send una o.

Can it be reversed after installation. Incase I no wan use am again

tojahh:
The merits of CNG on this jobs can never be downplayed. I use a CNG installed Honda Accord 05, 2.4L and it's been 13 months and I can tell you for free (not free) that it's the best thing for me after drinking water.

I can't even remember when last I lament about price or what have you. Again, if you think protest will do the magic with these apps company I will tell you from experience protest has never helped drivers in this hustle. Since 2023 drivers has been calling for these protest but nothing to really show. I think the way forward is to take the agitations to these companies,. Ensure they don't operate while you protest, not the shambolic display of going to Alausa to dance and gyrate.

Pnp can favour anybody in which their skill is in high demand. Like there is a partway for doctors and nurses now. Although having a Canadian experience gives u better advantage but you can also be lucky. I also advice u try and look for ways to increase ur crs score

SemperFid:
My crs score is 456. I am a doctor. Will the PNP favor me and how do I go about it? Chatgpt is suggesting I get a job offer for some PNp that need job but my license and qualifications are not recognized yet in Canada so I can't possibly just get a job like that.

Omo today for ikeja get as e b ohh. 2 hrs gone useless trips on indrive

Na my guy. But business is business.

Kumuyiii:
1. Make sure u know the person, have it on lowkey voice record to him admitting it's a trip.
2. Price - depends on time spent but minimum is 150k...if na me, 150-250 depending on time.

Pls how much do I charge to carry someone from ago palace way to presidential library aboekuta . To and from. It's about 110km. Dat is 220km go come

Bosss good day. Will b sending u a message now on whatsapp

bassdow:
when one drop phrase like comments (comments missing out on important basic information), then we either stress ourselves asking those questions or just assume.

Indrive is d worst app. Passenger go cancel trip after u reach their addy. Dey can waste tym for africa kus dey no there is no waiting fee. On Indrive u will see a starting fair, but d rider will use his or her and reduce it further. Na this same indrive person go order courier service to carry human being. Kus its cheaper

How una dey take add message for d order

flootintin:
So strike day 2 abi?

E b like say u dey sleep. Doctors no dey go on strike? Does dat make Dem bad? Abeg no dey put emotions to this talk abeg.

jideflash:
What of the medical patients that needed to take ride to the hospitals that cant use buses due to their condition. you have deprive them of dignity in their sufferings. all well and good, hope you are happy that you have made goal. We are the monsters we create.

But I heard a car can use cng and petrol. U can alternate it

Aiit got u. Thanks alot

Ok noted sir. Plan to use it on 3 units 450 or 550 watts panel.
Also how often do people use d charge controller on hybrid inverters. Kus I notice dat most people still get to use external charge controllers

bassdow:
your budget could get you a quality USEd 60Amps or 80Amps. You should focus more on params such as max Solar voltage which is mostly 150v for 60Amps or 200v for 80amps as those determines how much solar strings it would contain. Of course the max solar power matters also.

BUT all in all, don't overSpend especially when the future is still far. I made such mistake where I overBought and said charge controller went bad before the future was reached. Start with a good 60Amps. When the time comes, you either pair with another charge controller, or you upgrade. a 60Amps or 80Amps charge controller can take you really far. Far enough most people never get to fully consume it.

Either way, got both 60A, 80A, 100A charge controllers all USEd and quality versions.

Hahahhahhahaha

Eazilyfe:
If you car breakdown for road, its hard to see help

Well I felt 120ah will b great Incase of adding more panels in d nearest future

bassdow:
Quality item costs money Oga. reason I most times suggest buying USEd ones of high quality.

A used Quality item is much better than a brand new low quality item.

And Felicity got lots of FAKEs in the market. If you must buy Felicity, go their office.

Also, you want to buy a 120AH charge controller with budget of 150,000 naira and below. You sure say you get idea wetin you dey find so ?

Also how did you conclude you need a 120AH charge controller ?

Good day boss. Pls cSn u recommend a good charge controller 120ahm.

bassdow:
to me, I suggest @cyif2003 first get the solar panels and charge controller. His only complain is they (mostly the wife + baby) now spend more time at home than before hence issue of NEPA is not morenow obvious.

No need getting another inverter or upgrading if their current system still serves them HENCE me suggestion to get the solar panels and charge contorller which costs between 50,000 naira to 100,000 naira depending on if it's used or new. That way, He doesn't spend unnecessarily.

The Solar panels + charge controller takes over the role of NEPA in life of the inverter. He saves the rest.

Should he spend all that budget now, he would end up repeating the system He already has which is small to begin with. He currently owns a 12v solar system; following the suggestions I see above means He would be repeating same thing again.

But by just getting the solar panels + charge controller, He's on his way to building a better upgraded system of either 24v or 36v or 48v .

Mind you, if not for the baby, madam wouldn't be on maternity leave hence the entire home leaves early in the morning and returns late at night/evening hence what they mostly need is Fan, lights, and a couple of others like phone charging, etc. Maternity leave no be forever; it's just for a while.

Once again, @cyif2003; you should buy:
2pcs of 400w / 450w / 500w solar panels (total of 200,000 naira or less),
a good MPPT charge controller (50,000 to 100,000 naira max)
1 bundle of NEPA wire (20,000 naira max) as PV cable

You continue using your current inverter and battery. Only think of changing the battery if after a while, you have valid reason(s) to. With the solar panels, the battery would mostly be used at NIGHT or during prolonged heavy rain else the Solar panels are the ones doing the heavy lifting.

Again, if you must buy a battery, look into going 24v or 48v which means you would have to also upgrade your inverter. A used 24v or 48v inverter would be much cheaper. Don't go and do 12v system twice abeg.

NB: There are lots of rubbish out there in the market. you're are less likely to buy them if you open your eyes + your're informed enough + spend better. For instance, a lot of inverters out there don't have quality copper coil. na mostly aluminium coil coated with copper and guess what; they're rarely as efficient as those with full copper.
Same with Lithium batteries sef. They just flood the market with those things while influencing buyers decision.

Thanks. 120ah charge controller. Was advised to buy Felicity but d price no b here. Budget is 100 /150k

bassdow:
Have people looking to sell their used ones mostly due to upGrades and are mostly MPPT

As for whether there's difference between NEW or USEd, of course there always would be difference between a USEd car and Brand new car. When buying USEd, what matters is how USEd it is, and if it's ever been repaired before ELSE most times, no major difference EXCEPT of course, no warantee from the company since you didn't buy from them.

Also Asking for one to recommend affordable something without stating your max budget makes no sense because "CHicken cost, is based on who dey PRICE am" . That word "affordable" is always relative - what's affordable to Dangote could be very very very costly to You.

Who can recommend an affordable mppt charge controller for me. Also any difference buying used or new charge controller?

Most tyms it's stable. I think it's based on my location

XVIER:
please have you find a way around it to make the 5G stable?

I no go agree with u oh. Night trips are far cheaper dan day trips

Eazilyfe:
If u can work from 8:30pm till day break on the island u go see N600/KM above

I don't have d guys nos . But I can always trace d place

sofdoc1:
Share location or number with us o.
The 6mm I saw at arena na 2k5 last and I checked in about three places. Majority of the wires being sold are used btw.

Keke and bus done increase price.

I dey on break for now. We go see for weekend

This is wrong ohh

Kumuyiii:
Yes sir, but na becus he drag the phone with dem na why dem knife am.... My windows are always up! I dey chnage compressor every 7 to 10 months, i no get strength for talk.

Weekend hustle done settle some bills.. d Koko is dat different people do this hustle 4 different purpose. So no dey reason say everybody dey like u...

Kaymax2222:
I think say bill dey look you for eye ni, continue na. The way some of una dey talk sometimes eh. Who no get bills to pay before, but there gass be dignity in labour because this one is arrant nonsense

Well na only weekend I dey drive but I dey ok serious pause

I understand u bro. But I doubt we can all come together to protest or even strike. No uniformity amongst nigerians

Jegheter:
How long will u settle urgent bills bro I understand but if we don't all align these shit won't stop.

What bout when time reach to fix car. Unless u r using Suzuki or cng den u have no bizness picking shitty trips .

Iz dehumanizing bro

I swear. We enter road for different purpose. Some people get urgent need to settle some bills. U no go blame anybody for accepting a fare.

Shimmaa:
All these ones are just stressing themselves for absolutely no reason.

I done laff tire
