Music/Radio / Country Music Star Kenny Rogers Dies by godspeed: 8:32am On Mar 21, 2020 |
Can't believe this is not here. American country music legend Kenny Rogers has died aged 81. A family representative said he "passed away peacefully at home from natural causes". Rogers topped pop and country charts during the 1970s and 1980s, and won three Grammy awards. Known for ballads including The Gambler, Lucille and Coward Of The County, his career spanned more than six decades. He once summed up his popularity by explaining that he believed his ballads "say what every man wants to say and that every woman wants to hear". He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2013 and, that same year, received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Country Music Association. In their statement his family said he "left an indelible mark on the history of American music". A keen businessman, Rogers also led several ventures over the years, mainly in property and the restaurant sector. He was married five times and had five children. https://www.google.com.ng/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/world-us-canada-51986611 One of my favourites of all time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-ZmpWvtJ0g

Education / Re: Amotekun Is Cheetah Not Leopard by godspeed: 11:14pm On Jan 18, 2020 |
Babalegba: But they definitely came from the middle East, probably from Arabia ( who are neighbors with India) at least this is one of the myths about oduduwa the progenitor of the yorubas |
Education / Re: Amotekun Is Cheetah Not Leopard by godspeed: 11:09pm On Jan 18, 2020 |
einsteine: It's not that simple. First, you have to look at the origin of the Yoruba language and how it has developed over the centuries. No doubts, contact with foreigners either thru trade, slavery or colonialism would have had a large influence on the Yoruba language.( Much like the English language is heavily influenced by Latin and French) . That the yorubas never saw tigers does not mean they never heard about it or didn't at least get a description. Remember, one of the stories about oduduwa is that he came to Ife from Arabia haven fled the peninsula when Mohammad the prophet was ridding Arabia of idolaters, infact, oduduwa brought the IFA religion from Arabia. No doubts, oduduwa arrival in Ile Ife would have had an effect on the local language as a lot of new words would have been introduced into the Yoruba lexicon. So as regards' Ekun' , it could have been a borrowed word from oduduwa's language, or a coinage from the description of the animal as given to them by oduduwa. Remember, Arabia is neighbors with India, so the tiger will not be strange to them. BTW, amotekun means Leopard, cheetahs also not native to west Africa. |

earthrealm: Thanks bro. My current panels are actually 2x 250 watts. I didn't do the set up myself, a professional installer did |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 10:34pm On Dec 15, 2019 |
earthrealm: My bad! I'm seeing this for the first time. Does that mean I can connect 4 panels in series ( they're 24v each) and get more harvest in amps?

earthrealm: Yes, I'll share on each side of the roof. The max PV input is 24 v |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 1:29pm On Dec 15, 2019 |
earthrealm: Thanks for the forensic analysis bro. I'm planning to get at least another panel to augment what I have. Between getting a 300 watts panel and getting 2 150 watts panel, which do u recommend. I'm asking because of the amps I should expect in harvest |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 9:12am On Dec 15, 2019 |
earthrealm: Now, the first two pictures are the east side of the building, it is 8 am and it is facing the rising sun. The last picture is the panel on the west side, you can see the sun obscured by the height of the roof. Before the sun reaches the panel on the west side, it'll be Around 11 am. Now, when it is beyond noon, the sun stop facing the panel on the east side but hits it by the side , at this same time, the panel on the west faces the sun directly. This is my temporary fix for now. The third picture is my cc and u can see the instantaneous harvest at beyond 8 ah and it's 8 in the morning. I am surprised that topmost PMW charger is doing almost the same as my MPPT despite similar set up.

earthrealm: Which state are u I won't mind u coming to take a look at this set up |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 2:47pm On Dec 13, 2019 |
earthrealm: I didn't do the set up myself, a professional helped me and it has been low harvest since last year. The max instantaneous harvest I've noticed is 14 amps, each of the panels is 8 amps if I'm correct. Fan? I don't even have, the only load on the set up is my 80 watts television and decoder and 2 watts bulbs which I seldom put on. My guess is that sufficient sunlight doesn't reach the panels cos my building is flanked by two gigantic buildings on the west side,hence why I moved one of the panels to the Eastside. I'll send some pictures tomorrow Do u think it's advisable to buy more panels? |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 12:18pm On Dec 13, 2019 |
[quote author=Topmost11 post=84870114][/quote] Imo, I tire ooooo. The max I've ever gotten was 85 ah in a day. I just don't know what's wrong with my set up. Have u ever harvested above 200ah in a day? 1 Like |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 12:16pm On Dec 13, 2019 |
earthrealm: Thanks for your explanation. The CC is MPPT and it's about 40 AH rated The panels are 24 volts connected in parallel. I doubt if the battery is failing cuz it's relatively new and it's a tubular flooded battery. In fact it charges full whenever I travel away for the weekend. May I also add that I'm completely off-grid. What in your opinion could be the problem. I'm even thinking of getting two additional panels of 330 watts each |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 8:20pm On Dec 12, 2019 |
earthrealm: What?! So what is supposed to be my harvest(in amps pls) for a 500 solar panel and 220 AH battery. I have never gotten a full charge on a single day, in fact today, I harvested 60AH again. Is this the best I can hope for? |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 10:07pm On Dec 11, 2019 |
EgunMogaji2: The measuring device is the MPPT charge controller itself. |
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by godspeed: 8:28pm On Dec 11, 2019 |
godspeed:So I washed the panels as advised and changed the position of the two panels putting one on the east side and the other on the west site in an inverted 'v' format, aligning with the top of the roof, now the harvest has improved to about 60AH. My question is: is this the optimum I can get for this set up? There is a guy with a similar set up here who claims he gets a full charge everyday 1 Like |
