Education / How I Got My Identity Card by engreddy(m): 9:33am On Dec 01, 2021
HOW I GOT MY IDENTITY CARD

About December of 2020, the federal government launch the IMPROVED NIN SLIP AND MOBILE APP. There were some initial challenges and these were followed by usual condemnations by some Nigerians. Eventually they got the app right and our details correct in the application.

Yesterday, I decided to get the ID Card in a hard copy. I initially wanted it laminated but then decided to print it in plastic form.

All I needed to do was login to my NIMC APP, select the option to print NIN slip, token is generated by the app, I login to the payment platform within the app, paid N1200 for the PREMIUM NIN SLIP (there is another option of N400 for STANDARD NIN SLIP), after successfully paying using my bank master card, I could download the improved NIN slip in pdf (high resolution).

I went for the PREMIUM NIN SLIP (N1200) instead of the STANDARD NIN SLIP (N400) because it looks better. I took it for printing in plastic, paid 1k and about 30mins later, I'm walking out with my National Identity Card. Simple and easy, I didn't have to go to their office or wait anymore (actually, since 2013).

In my opinion, this option is good and benefit the govt, me and the guys in the street. The govt generated their revenue, I got my National Identity Card and the guy in the street got paid for his business. Everyone goes home getting what they wanted. When this digital ID Card was introduced by the govt, some were quick to complain, calling the govt confused among other words they could use, it is as if some of these people are so invested in the failure of the FG.

Some things in life needs time and patience to get to where we want it to be. Take a look at the internet or the mobile phone, it took time but eventually, we are where we are today. I think the FG should ensure that National Drivers Licenses goes digital and can be obtained through this same NIMC platform. They should also take payments/renewal for vehicle papers and insurance digital so vehicle owners would make their payments/renewal and get their documents, print them out without the hassle of visiting these offices.

Sometimes, most times you just need to have patience and resist the urge to condemn every little thing the FG does, unless you are sworn never to see anything good whatsoever in what they do. Like the e-naira, NIMC application had it challenges initially but after a while, it's been fixed and we can all use it easily. I am imagining the future where the e-naira would be exchanged with digital currencies of other countries, especially the digital yuan (I know the US Govt will never like it but it is about time the US dollars used as instrument of oppression and exporting inflation be sidelined)

Technology Market / Re: My Dilemma With Battery Capacity Tester by engreddy(m): 9:28am On Sep 11, 2021
Update:

So I had an agreement with the seller. I offered to keep the product while he returns $10 to me and he accepted. While not the outcome I wanted, at least I didn't lose all. To return the product would have cost me more than 20k naira.

Maybe I'll be able to have a fix for it in the future or recalibrate it. I don't know for now. Maybe it will be useful in some other way, the future will tell. But anyway, I'll just leave it at that.

Technology Market / My Dilemma With Battery Capacity Tester by engreddy(m): 5:47am On Sep 07, 2021
For more than 2 years now, I have been working blind in my 18650 battery power wall project. God knows I needed a battery capacity tester. So when I had a little money, I ordered for this as. I just wish I should have gone for Lii500, but I order for this as it could serve many purposes.

So after receiving the product, I tested it. The first I noticed about it was its inaccuracy in voltage readings. The manual said its 0.05v off, but at time, it was more than that. Then the real capacity test were bad.

In my years of building battery banks, I wouldn't say it's actual capacity but I could guess. So when I see readings being about 2 times lower than what I guess it should be, then it really disturb me.

The video reviews I saw on YouTube acknowledges that you may end up getting a bad product. One reviewer suggested getting about 3 or 4 (since they are cheaper compared to other capacity testers) so that if you one is bad, you throw it away. But here is the catch, I don't have the luxury of throwing away 40usd,waybill inclusive (about 20k) in this hard economy.

I have videos of the capacity test. Maybe I'll upload them to my YouTube channel and share the link.

The product is in dispute at the moment. I needed to return it and get full refund from the seller. But here is the real challenge, it seems the cost of sending it back is way higher than the cost I paid for the product waybill inclusive.

So I'm confused. What do you my tech guys think? Have you had similar experiences? How did you go about it? I wish this product was good, I wouldn't want to return it, but I cannot rely on it.

Yemmyteespeed007:
that's just it, so many things to buy. And one will still have to order from far away. Few that are selling parts here in 9ja will rip off somebody.
I have electrode though, I just need a handfull of powerful MOSFET to make it.
Soldering isn't good for those cells, unless you'll be very fast.

I have been soldering all my packs since and it's not funny. That's after I have finished salvaging the cells from dead laptop battery. It's not funny at all.

Yemmyteespeed007:
Oya, let's see.
Planning on making one also, though with microcontroller and MOSFET.

Let see the weld too.
wink

I'm thinking of getting a control board, even a. Welding electrode from Aliexpress for it. But I don't think I really need it now, besides, I can use the money for other purposes for now.

For now, as I have saved myself from the stress of soldering cells to make packs, I'll rather spend the money on battery capacity tester, purchase of more nickel strip etc.

My needs are much for now.

I am planning to use old stabiliser casing to make an enclosure for it. Though I'm in no hurry for now because of competing demand for funds. Meanwhile, I'll use it as it is though I acknowledge that having an enclosure for it will make it safe and good looking, besides, they will be reduced risk of electric shock.

This is the video of the weld

I'll post pictures in the evening after work. It was very easy and simple to build. Here are the list of parts I used.

1. Microwave Oven Transformer.
2. 2 yards of 16mm cable (multiple core or earth wire)
3. 4mm single core (using as my electrodes)
4. Microstroke switch
5. Wires

This morning, I woke up by 3am to test the weld on some cells and it was really good. I'll be using it for future battery pack projects and it will make my job really easy (goodbye to soldering of battery packs).
