Another Zero joy alert

Richy4:
Sometimes I don't blame them...I blame the authorities that issue licenses....They just issue driving licenses to people that did not go to driving school or pass driving test...once you flash your money, the license is yours...they had zero driving rules..once anyone can reverse a car or accelerate, The person claims that he or she can drive

Richy4:
Most can't drive within the marked line.... I usually see such horrifying driving on you tube when watching Nollywood...How can one drive in middle of white line without remorse...not that they are changing lane or something...

Originalsly:
Good write up......but nothing would change without 24/7 enforcement of the rules

Tazmode:
Some of them didn't pay attention at driving school or got their driver's license through the window

Billyonaire:
I do not think I have time to read any write up by the unstable mind who jumps on the fence every now and then. A man should be known by a predictable content of character. To be very frank, there are people today who can give their lives to prove that Buhari is doing wonderful, and yet there are some of us who believe Buhari is the worst thing to happen to Nigeria since the civil war.

As rational humans, we need to seriously look at Nigeria in a very wholesome way. This man Buhari is following a fractured law that has killed Nigeria gradually. Buhari is a robotic arm that simply follows the laws to its mission while protecting 'his own people'.

Let us come out all of us that believe we love Nigeria to say that we can not operate 3 or more constitutions, Sharia, 1999 Constitution, Local customs and tradtions as well as Jungle Justice System are all forms of laws operable in Nigeria.lol. We must come to say that Quota System, Federalism as we used today, nepotism, tribalism have to STOP. If we do not accept to stop these vices and Unify all the laws into a single constitution, then Lord Lugard's experiment ends. There is no way to mend this everlastingly, without re-discussing our togetherness.

Every other steps taken is just a gum on the temporal forced union.

Let us stop blaming Buhari. He is just a sick robotic arm of our tomfoolery. Make we dey fool ourselves dey go. Soon, Ghana go dey deny una VISA.

Expl0rers:
Thanks bro.
I'll find another option

Expl0rers:
its not a rechargeable fan

DMerciful:
Any device rated 12v can use even a ship battery provided the battery is 12v. The load draws the current it is designed to draw!

Expl0rers:
it's me, i got banned.

so you're saying i can directly connect the wires of the fan to the car battery? and it will work properly?

Yes! If as the other poster said, it's a 12V rechargeable fan. I had one of these before I tossed it due to faulty motor and when the battery the fan came with (12V, 7Ah) died, I used one of the spare batteries (12V 100ah) I had lying around to power it. I unscrewed the compartment where the small battery in the fan is, then I disconnected the DC wires going to the small battery and put it on my bigger spare battery.

is there any way i can charge the battery without putting it in the car? i want it to just specifically work only with the fan.

dude, to charge the battery, the bigger car battery (not the small fan battery), you would need to put it in a car, or get an AC battery charger that you can plug into the wall when there is light, or you would have to get a small solar/charge controller kit to top up the battery, which you can do without an inverter.

LIBSocials:
Please make una no vex, I have a stupid question.

I have a standing fan, and I'm looking to power only the standing fan with a car battery.

It's just a basic standing fan, I'm unsure of the watts.

Is this a stupid idea?

Although I have a generator, fuel consumption is too high.

How do I go about this new quest?

Do I need a brand new battery?

How do I charge the car battery?

How safe is this act?

I really need answers as the heat for my area is like suicide.

Biko EPP me

DMerciful:
You can use the battery with a 12v inverter but know that car battery is not designed for deep cycle operation. If its a rechargeable fan that uses 12v battery, then you can connect d wires that go to d internal battery to ur car battery and there will be no need for inverter.....

teamsynergy:
wia is ur location?... if na lag and eno too far, we can work somfin out...

realjoker:
We should be happy that it is now rising, it shows that our brothers in the creeks have desist from vandalism of gas pipelines. And no civilized country generate Million MWH in the world and must we generate far beyond our requirements because we want to generate as much MW as civilised nation does? Our current peak demand forecast is a little below 2GW and it do drop to as low as 1.4GW.

BigIyanga:
How about working and finishing it beyond Ajah?

pdozie:
Nothing major? LOL. Really u can do it yourself. This is DIY forum. If you follow all the posts in here, you can pull it. But before you start, you need to size the system well, if not, you will never enjoy the solar and you will continue to spend more especially in changing batteries.

So first, calculate all the load u want to run on inverter and how many hours each will run in a day. The loads will be in Watts
. E.g Fan 50W x 7 hrs; TV 80W x 6hrs; bulbs 8 x 15W x 8 (8 bulbs of 15W each to run 8 hrs) etc. Do this for all the devices.
Then we get the total WH
From there we calculate and determine the size of the battery that will carry the load adding efficiency factor and DOD.
Then we calculate the amount of solar charges (panels) that is adequate for charge the battery bank.

If you get the figures right, then you can start mounting the panels and you will enjoy your setup.

Destined2win:
Generating stable and healthy power via coal will need a lot of sophistication. Wouldn't that give you a lot of concern?

Destined2win:
Have you weighed the pros and cons of solar power generation?

quiverfull:
I must confess, I was very sceptical, but Ambode has genuinely impressed me. He's gone about his work quietly and efficiently without the media razzmatazz of Fashola.
