dollarnaira:

Bro thanks alot Shipping fee is d issue I checked Jumia too seems fair Jumia sells for abt 16k

If you can get a good deal on Jumia, go for it.

saint2ace:


Does the 20k include shipping cost? I'd also appreciate the link when available...

Unfortunately, it's now about 30k.

dollarnaira:


Most AliExpress acclaimed psw na msw but i will bro. Help with a specific brand if u can pls.
Most are not branded

The one I bought is actually pure sine wave. No humming with fans or led bulbs. I just tried looking for it, unfortunately, the store doesn't have it again. The only store that has it sells at 14k plus 15k shipping fee so that's approx 30k.

I'll keep looking sha. You can also try searching by yourself. Take note of customer reviews and watch out for oscilloscope test pictures. That's your proof of the nature of the sine wave.

mahkanjuh, I don't know how this nl pm thingy works. You can post your question here and I'll be glad to assist.

dollarnaira:


Yes ceepro na 25k 600w
U r right

I need psw WITHOUT charger if possible

If you don't mind waiting, you can get 600w Psw inverter on AliExpress for around 20k. Just type 600w pure sine wave inverter in the search bar. I got one from there last year.

With the resumption of international flight, you won't have to wait too long unlike when borders were still closed.

saint2ace:


About 5months and counting, it has its cons and pros sha, cons being that u can't adjust charge profile and the charging amperage is quite low (10a @ 12v and 24v respectively).
Pros bring that it has a built in AVR and a dedicated DOD switch which u can set to 50% or 25% DoD.

All else is as it should be.

A friend here (Valto) once told me of an icellpower echo x4 12v 1.5kva inverter (continuous work rating is 1kva) with adjustable settings for almost everything and a low self consumption too. It might be worth looking into, though it was out of stock for sometime, you might be lucky to get one. I believe it can also serve u well.

NB: the icellpower inverter does not come with battery cables nor power cables.

This should not be an issue because charging will be mostly through solar panels. Thanks

saint2ace:


It's not on Jumia but it's on the BTS store on Konga, as per it's durability I have not used it but I've used the 1kva BTS inverter model and the BTS brand is a rugged brand, so I feel it should also be good.

How long have you been using your BTS inverter?
I intend getting the 1.5kva 24v version. The only heavy stuff it will power once in a while is a small fridge rated 100w or so. I hope that's a good choice?

dollarnaira:


Yes o

That's great!

dollarnaira:
Surprisingly Jumia sent a text that my pulse repair charger will come to my door today- 6th instead of 18th to 25th September.
Aug 18 to Sept 5 = 18 days.

Shipped from overseas?

He is holding hundreds of thousands of Naira in his hands right there.

GeorgeD1:


brother,
really its been a while. though i may appear to be absent from the thread at times, my spirit, my soul still
breathes solar.
i tactically stopped making reference to my system size long ago in order not to appear to gloat. some here
might even misinterpret it as showboating. even the solar harvests that i post from time to time is just a way
of encouraging a few of us here who still look at solar with hidden doubt, not too sure of its possibilities. it's
my own way of saying, "hey, it's possible. solar is real".
that said, i have a very robust system comprising 48 solar panels total nominal capacity about 15kw. batteries
used to be 12pcs 260ah zenith lead acid totaling 780ah until earlier this year when i did an upgrade.
i will be posting details of this in the next few days along with pictures.

Sir, just open an electricity distribution company already!

Then few years from now a child and his mum will have this conversation.

Child: "Mum, who is my dad"?

Mum: "I don't know who he is, he was wearing a mask"

This must have been an assassination attempt.

Like some guy from Edo state would say...

We are brown

saint2ace:

Yep. Jumia global

Wow, that's fast considering Covid.
Thanks

saint2ace:



It cost ₦13.350, to land it to my pickup centre. I bought exactly the type ceejay80s has, the yellow type dollarnaira bought is 3k less but I want one that has been tested and is trusted.

By the way ordered on the 9th August and got it today 25th August. So took 16 days in total.

Shipped from overseas, right?

ceejay80s:


it depends, u can get ur prices and delivery price from jumia after u checkout, but if u want ur delivery fee reduced, there has to be one of their pick up stations around ur area...

Thanks

saint2ace:


Na so me too suffer before I settled for the exact one Ceejay80s bought, I no won hear story.

NB: just picked up the charger from Jumia. Let the testing begin.....

Please how much did it cost and how long did it take to get delivered?

omohayek:

Yes, just like Abba Kyari, Abiola Ajimobi and Buruji Kashamu all recovered without any cause for alarm, abi? What is it with Nigerians and wishful thinking in the face of the most glaring facts?

So they should say he will die?

What's wrong with having a positive mindset?

Have many people not recovered from the vurus?

Israelicc:
Well articulated Sir. It's a matter necessity and preference. I love the Madam will be very happy part .

Most times the heat generated from the kitchen can make cooking a real chore. So anything to make Madam happy would be great One could even add a smart TV there as well sef and like Oga NiyiOmoIyunade said, be prepared to upgrade your system accordingly.

I assure you, very delicious meals will come out of that upgraded kitchen

You sure say this one no go lead to frequent occurrence of too much salt and burnt rice? Fear Zeeworld!

If by chance I come across this kind of person, I will spit on her fake head.

energybank:
no battery is suited for deep discharge in other to maintain the battery life.... Anyway thanks, I'll order for the agm battery then

I think what he meant to say is, car battery is not designed to withstand cyclic use i.e repeated charge and discharge.

dukeo:
I ask again o, is it safe to order from Aliexpress now?

I placed an order using AliExpress Standard shipping recently.

It was dispatched to overseas (left Singapore) 10 days after shipping...that was 20 days ago.

So I expect the package to land anytime within 30days from now.

March orders came in June and July and they were mostly untracked. The one wey get tracking among them sef don loss....the thing never land but I don collect my refund tey tey sha (China Post Registered Airmail )

AlomoReloaded:
By the way, this recent update na real wa.... Real peace of mind scammer.... I did the update o, after doing it, na when I begin see the original nwii.... The phone was just comfortably rebooting on its own.... Never staying on..... It did it for almost 3hours, till it went to self autoreset. My chairmen, I had no other option o, I had to use the volume and power keys for navigation and selection, cos screen don go sabbatical... I had to click on the reset... I lost ALL MY DATA.... CONTACTS, BOOKS, PICTURES MESSAGES, EVERY DAMN THING. I was almost tempted to say I'm done with Redmi.... But it's actually hard to let go of true love. Btw, my phone is RN7. The phone now be like Virgin.... I had to start installing and downloading. It was painful. Abeg who had a bitter experience with this recent update Abi na only me.?

You see what I was saying the other day?

We have gone from "why is Xiaomi not pushing updates to my phone, this is unfair"

to

"See what this update has done to my phone, why did they even release this update?"

There is no need updating your phone if it is working fine. No need fixing what is not broken!

Diamondniyi:

Who motivated the citizens?? Is it not your governments. 25years ago when we had better governments, is this how everything was? Trust me, main problem facing this nation are our leaders. 20% of the problems come from citizens

But where do the leaders come from?

From another country or from among the citizens?

The answer to this question will help you see why the citizens are to blame.

endemophy:
Please is it true that xiaomi parts r nt available in Nigeria

You can get the parts here.

And by the way, you most likely won't have any need for spare parts because of the quality build.

I have been using my phone for close to 3 years now and the only 'parts' I have replaced are the phone cover/case and tempered glass. I deliberately replace them after a number of months just to keep the phone looking new.

Rayliousity:
no be Nigeria jumia the operate again?

Not only Nigeria.

What's all the fuss about updates sef? I am still on the version that came with my phone even though update notifications have been popping up. Why? My phone is working well and I am Ok with it.

The annoying thing is, some people will complain about not getting updates and when they finally get it, they will still come here to complain that the update did this or that to their phone.

I no blame una sha, na Xiaomi dey spoil una with frequent updates.

limpopo:


This one that you are seeing millions now!!

okay, the breakdown.. I don remove some gadgets shaa

43inch TV - 80watts
sound bar --- 70watts
led bulbs (5watts) -- 8pcs -- 40 watts
decoder -- 30watts
phone chargers-- let's say 10watts(10* 5phones)--- 50watts
fans--- (4pcs *40watts)--- let's say 200watts

All the above calculation Na 470watts

So, 470watts for 8hours

Now we are getting somewhere....

From your list, I don't think all these will run simultaneously for 8hours. For instance, your phones cannot charge continuously for 8hours so that knocks off the 50w from your continous load.
I assume your continous load will eventually be around 350w.

Now, lets wait for the gurus to come and give you figures in hundreds of thousands, shey that is Ok?

ceaser:


Lol. This gat me.

Reminds me of one Nollywood movie like that.

Bàbá, please if I sacrifice my manhood, will poverty stop in my life?

Bàbá replied, even if you sacrifice your head today, I still see poverty chasing you o.

That Baba na savage.

limpopo:


millions ke!!!! I never belleful like that ooo. please what can be done to reduce the cost..

like 600watts for 8 hours

I still see millions

How about you give an idea of the appliances you want to run on the setup?

Maybe gurus here can give you energy-efficient options or advice on how to best optimise the appliances for lower consumption.

600w continous for 8hours is still huge.

limpopo:
morning bosses in the house..
Abeg me sef want join this solar geng ooo..
My calculated watts is 900watts for at least 10 hours everyday..
I need the list of materials to buy (solar panels, inverter, charger, battery)..

I don calculate Taya.

earthrealm
ojeysky

GeorgeD1

and other great professionals in the house

900w for 10hrs daily? That is massive consumption.

First of all, I hope your bank account balance is in six zeros?

That said, let's wait for the gurus to come and start dishing out the figures.
