I have a redmi 8 4/64 and i have an extra 30k. Can ibget a swap with d note 9 pro, 6/128??
Better to sell your phone first and add cash to get your desired phone. You'll most likely be short changed if you attempt to swap.

Hello house.. what is the main difference between this two thermocool gen and which one is more fuel efficient ?
Same power, the yellow you have here is manual start, it also has an electric start model. Major difference is the presence of VFT display on the blue to check voltage, frequency and time. If you don't normally need to be reminded before carrying out maintenance, you can go with the yellow.

Good evening Everyone...I have a little issue with my RN8....I notice that whenever I off my data and on it back...it takes time before my RN8 pics up Network signal like 2-3mins..Unlike before it picks up signal immediately I on my data...Does anyone here know the cause of this and can I get any help?

NB:::The Network signal in my area is very strong...There is an MTN mast close to my house yet it takes some minutes for my phone to pick up signal whenever I on my Data huh
Mtn has been having issues since late last year. You can slot in a sim from another network to confirm.

The phone does not power on,does not charge or show any sign of life again. But when plugged to a system,it recognizes the phone in the device manager. I couldn't try the suggestions by genius43 and atheistandproud as the phone won't charge. This early 2022,make this phone no do like this na...
Open the back cover of the phone and check if the battery connector is attached. You can detach it and reattach if its attached, then charge the phone. You can check YouTube on how to do this.

I want to purchase this generator from a friend. I will like to seek your opinion on it. Thanks
Pics alone is not enough, take a good engineer with you to inspect it, and what do you plan to power the gen with?

WarriAproko:
wen i bought the gen. It was 230. With load on it is 280. But now without load is 280 with load is 260.
If you meant 228 and 226 without and with load respectively, its fine.

Seems this out of stock BLUE is intentional o, everywhere no blue in stock.
Yes, they are electric start. Seems they don't produce much of the blue.

Harryfrosh:
yeah... I had to go for the used one to get the blue... But sorry for asking... Apart from the low noise.. What's so special about the blue version... I've not yet start using mine because I'm still out of town
I don't think the noise is different, its the Junior that is known for its loud noise. I think the major difference is the presence of VTF display on the blue to check voltage, frequency, run time and total run time, it makes servicing easier on the blue one. The blue is also more portable.

The yellow one is now 210k... The blue is out of stock.. Because a friend want to buy the blue and I've been calling different thermocool showroom since morning... No blue available.. But the yellow.. And all of them including Lagos keep saying the price for the yellow is 210k... It's like they all do meeting or something.. 12 different showroom in different cities and their price is the same... 210k...
Just checked now, the Blue is out of stock, the yellow is 190k, the bigger yellow ( 4.125kva rated) is 230k.

Please what type of gen can do you recommend that can carry 215l Hisense refrigerator, 32 inches Hisense tv, Iron, 2 blenders and about 10 energy bulbs and 1 ceiling fan with two small standing fan. Thanks
Get at least a 3.5 KVA generator.

Thanks brother but 2.5kva is written on the label..... Please check the picture I attach for confirmation
That's 2.5kw not 2.5kva, they are not the same.

You're wrong. It's over 200k for the 3.75kva even at ilupeju office
Then price don skyrocket, will check around to see the actual price at my end.

Priced one at their showroom November, the manual start was 180k+ while the automatic start was 214,500.
3.7kva
That's one bad thing with them, different showrooms different prices. Well, in 9ja, anybody can increase price as he or she wants.

I know generator makes noise, but the way he wrote it compared to other brands like say the noise is higher decibels.
I'm thinking of get a 3.5/3.7kva thermocol gen in January, how's the noise and fuel computation compared to other brands?
Noise is normal, same like other brands you know of. At least you can confirm from the posted who just bought his.

Finally bought dis generator yesterday... Like the sound... So cool.. But I want to ask the gurus in the house if I can use dis gen to power... 1 smart 32 inches TV... Fridge... Sound system... Dstv... Charge laptop and phone power bank... Three bedrooms energy saving bulbs... 1 ceiling fan and 1 standing fan...
You should have asked before buying. This will power more than thrice the load you stated. What it can power is attached to the tank, check it.

Thanks for your reply, I don't have to tilt the gen to use the fuel. It's enough to flow on it's own you get? And this started recently since I started filling up the tank. Before, I'd just get 1k fuel and it'd completely drain it.
When this happened yesterday, I turned it on again and it went on for like 30 mins before turning off again

Also I was wondering if optima has a timer function? Maybe I mistakenly set it or something. Does it?
There's no timer function, the time there is just running time and total run time. Since you said it just started, it's possible you have had adulterated fuel (maybe there's water in the tank) or there's blockage already preventing enough fuel from getting to the carburetor when fuel level is low.

I got a sumec firman replacement unit. The seller and the technician both claimed it’s original. it fluctuates a bit when i turn on my AC. It’s not really significant but i am still observing. Should I be worried?
So long it's original you have nothing to worry about.

turned out to be the AVR. Sorted out already.

Please, My thermocool Oga6800es output voltage has been gradually going up for some time now. It’s presently howering at about 267-272 volts and I am scared of turning on most of my electronics. Does anyone have an idea of how best to troubleshoot this issue.
Did you just get it? Does it ever return down or it increases by usage? You should have the AVR checked.

be happy you still have a good generator. The carburetor will hardly develop issues as sludge from the tank and petrol won't be flowing into it
Very true.

Hello guys, happy Christmas
My generator, TEC hustler (the blue one) turns off before the petrol finishes. Is this something to be worried about?
It leaves about 1-2 litres of petrol before turning off

Gptech. I'd be pleased if you reply
Its not up to 2 litres, that's how it is, it's to prevent dirt from getting into the carburetor. Don't attempt to tilt it to use up the fuel.

That doesn't change the fact that Gsmarena doesn't verify features. At best, they just list out the features as stated by the phone manufacturer. As we all know most Asian phone manufacturers are unregulated and constantly lie about the features and quality of their products.
Not here to score points with you. You mustn't be right in everything. I wonder where you got those statistics from or where you did teardowns to see that most Asians lie about features. You seem eager to get at these companies no matter what but know this today, 'Megapixels is not they holy grail in picture quality'.

Baba, 48 megapixel on that pocolee thing is fake
You clearly don't understand what Megapixel is. Even on DSLRs and other professional cameras, there are many superior cameras with lower Megapixels to inferior ones from same company.

Megapixels is not synonymous to good picture quality, don't get it twisted.

I have a 2.3 watts starting watts generator. The generator is not original elepaq. It was clear to me after I bought it 2 years ago. I have a 1hp non inverter AC which uses 1000watts. I was told severally that 2.3watts will power 1hp AC. Even whan I went to Haier themocool office they told me it will power it and that I should try it first. I didn't bother trying it for the fact that it's not original elepaq generator and the AC is not inverter

But there to power problem we are having I am so tempted to try it. Mind you I once used a 1000watts pressing iron on the generator but the sound increase greatly. Also my 100watts fridge make the guy make same noise this is why I haven't tried it. The Haier themocool guy told me sounds increase does not matter that once you give it load it big load it will makes load sounds.

Do you advise I try this generator?
Don't try it oooo. Some ACs use more than twice their rated power for start up. As for the pressing iron, na better wear dey take place once you use it like that. For the change in noise, yes, it's normal for the noise to change as load increases. See this screenshot I got from Thermocool website.

Engineers in the house good afternoon.


I use this generator, It was serviced before I was gifted seven months ago, it doesn't give me issue each time I start it and I regularly change its oil and spark plug.

However, I notice that the oil licks (from the picture uploaded) maybe due to over float and another thing is that it makes so much noise.

What can you advise I do in order to reduce the noise and oil leakage?

Thank you for your response...
I don't think there's much you can do about the oil leakage and noise especially, this generator don work im money.

D voltage goes up n down. I normally change d oil when it acts like this and it works well
This habit causes your engine to wear faster than normal, who knows if this has led to damages that results in oil leakages. Check the oil level before changing it just to be clear.
