Guy rest.
u r not an engineer. You won't have rushed to chatgpt for input. You had no professional insights. U didn't even know there are different types of panel.

Next time don't jump into people's mention without first reading what they are talking about.

TheBizGenius:
To address 3 things.

1st, my 1st degree is in mechanical engineering and that was 35yrs ago. I listen to real intelligence from people who actually studied relevant courses during discussions rather than "I do business in.."

My best friend back then was in Elect. Elect. and he was building a failed inverter by the time we were leaving school. I tend to respect people like that. Like I would respect a mechanical engineer and not listen to a roadside mechanic. It's a thing with me.

2nd, the subject matter was a government project and I showed you what chatgpt said but you probably felt triggered to defend and justify your position but now you're changing the goalpost to cheap hardware bought in stores.

3rd, I still can't insult you, even if I wish to. Like I said, a person's background shines through, no matter the provocation.

Have a great day ahead.

Why didn't you answer the importan question. Peabbbrain.

A coward like you can't even face It that they are already handing out the country to their children. You run from such discussions because you need to beg them for crumbs to survive.

Your mates are discussing the politics of their country fearlessly. You are typing gibbberrrish.

Omonigeriarere:
You think everyone is like you, the paid keyboard warrior?

Your brain needs proper scanning and probably lamination to see whether if will function effectively in another state of affairs.

You needed the insult. You initially talked with a stoic stance as if you actually knew about solar panels.
Now you are calming down. It had a good effect.

But you are still wrong. Electrical engineers need to actually specialize before they know much about panels. I've actually done that business a little but I soon realize you have to lie to get ahead.

I was talking about the panels people are installing o their roofs. That its not a worthwhile investment. Not this FG project.
The one they did in Ghana. They placed it on the river, to help with cooling and I commended it.

I insist that those panels they sell in shops and just put flat on the roof without even mounting gap are just decoration and won't last more than 2 years before the owners get frustrated.

People that are informed are already moving the conversation to the environmental hazard of discarded panels that would soon become common.

TheBizGenius:
The challenge?

Young people getting the power and platform to talk without having anything beyond opinions to say.

To be worthy to be listened to as an expert, get the EXPERTISE (talk to an electrical engineer), EXPERIENCE (work in that environment for at least 10 years) AND EXPOSURE (read up big time on it).

Your assumption that government projects use the same specs as the ones you buy off the store shelf is even weird.

And no, I would not insult you back. My background is too aristocratic for me to get into the mud with you.

#all these me sef I get opinion people sef#

Clearly, you first need to learn to read

Guestmale:
I can see clearly you are only good at insulting but lacked the necessary and adequate knowledge to argue or defend the half knowledge you have about the solar energy.

Check my previous post explaining to another half educated person like you too

You don't even know the type of panel you should research about. If you think it's those modern monocrystalline panels that's available in Nigeria. It just became clearer where your schooling should start from.

Guestmale:
This is the result of my google search. Now who has disgrace himself.

Why didn't your father provide you with an education. So that you can earn a dignified living rather than depend on handouts from defending others online.

Omonigeriarere:
Which empire has your father built and can you show us how you have managed it successfully?

Keyboard Warrior

I wonder how old you are not to know yet that ChatGPT answers depend on how you phrase query. If you ask it to support any notion in this world, it simply will.

I'm not someone like u that depends on that. But on real engineering knowledge in the field. So I can help you get informed if you don't choose to remain sillly.

20 years lifespan is reserved for Tier-1 monocrystalline panels. The ones you have here is the Thin-film panels (e.g., amorphous silicon, CdTe, CIGS). It's even worse that they are very low quality.

Go and ask people that had to arrest their installer what they observed after just 6 months.

Now, check the AI response that explains the type of short lifespan panels you see around. Since that is your knowledge source.

TheBizGenius:
This is what chatgpt said:

No—those claims are off;

Standard solar panels typically last 20–30 years with gradual output decline (~0.3–0.8% per year), not a 2-year lifespan.

Heat and roof type can reduce efficiency slightly, but proper mounting, airflow, and quality installation prevent damage.

The real issue is poor system design and cheap components, not the technology itself.

#the way nairaland people lie should be studied in a university as a course#

A simple Google search would have saved you from disgracing yourself

Guestmale:
Where did you get this from that solar panels only last for 2 years before decline.It is not everybody on Nairaland that's ignorant.

I'm personally not a fan of solar.

Many people don't know panels only last for 2 years before output decline and it has to be replaced. There is also issue of overheating when placed on some types of roof like aluminum sheets thus spoiling faster. There are many technical challenges.

People installing it prefer not to tell the truth.

The cost of setting it up is similar to buying fuel for 2 years. It is only viable when all other factors align.

We keep asking for a clear manifesto. That should not be difficult.
We've heard a lot about your good intentions, but we need an actual plan of action.

The same thing with his promise of power generation. How will he raise the funds. It's not an impossible engineering feat, but it will be expensive. Tell us where 50b $ will be raised from and how infrastructure will actually be built and maintainance assured.

Anytime we say this things, obedients just attack us.

Why don't you tell us something actually intelligent, rather than just the sad drizzle of your poor state of mind.

ibedun:
Really? I cant believe I share the same country with people who have this mentality.

You people are so so ignorant its scary. I am so embarrassed that our country is full of people like you. SAD!

I wonder how this guy doesn't drink but still behaves/talk like a drunk

There is nothing like having a bad mouth. Without also having a bad hear.
As they say "everybody get in own for body"

If you think you throw insults. You must also be blocking your ear to the insults they throw back at you.
Usually, it's even 10 to 1 talk backs.

If you ignore the responses. Why do you think anyone will take ur own so called bad mouth serious.

They are actually welcome. The insecurity here needs solutions.

But it's troops we prefer they send. That example of what they called an airstrike was a mistarget.
Let them send soldiers that killed Osama to help us hunt bandit leaders here too. Then let our own troops lay ambush for their boys when they flee without proper commands.

It's very simple if they really want to help.

There should have never been a war.

Iran shouldn't have a nuclear weapon. Even their allies Russia and China agree. It will infiltrate into other wrong hands.

But other administrations have found better ways to stop them. Maybe even clandestine strikes.
Not a war that turned out wasteful.

The irony us that plastic plates are mostly also one-time use anyway.
They are discarded into refuse bins after the food is consumed by most people, rather than washed. The same thing with bottle water.

My suggestion is hempfibre strengthened paper boxes.

Kudos to them.

I've always believed.

Stop making a fool of yourself and stop carrying bitterness in your heart because of politics.

There is no yoruba intonation at all in this video. If you are just a little intelligent you will read the caption that said the man is Mr Anene.
Mr. Anene is from Ibusa (also known as Igbuzo), a town in Oshimili North Local Government Area of Delta State.

It happened on March 16 around powerline area in Delta state. He escaped on the 19th.

Please allow people to have reasonable conversations on this forum.
The insecurity in this country rather needs solution.

SpecialAdviser:
From their tone, you can easily deduce this is happening in Yoruba land.

The problem is who will farm rice paddy for them.

Especially at a cost that will allow them to mill and make great profit. The farmers want 50k for 3 months of work. By the time they process (fast duration - capital intensive operation) they can make average profit of 10k. But they are not satisfied with that business model.

Miller's began pushing for importation of paddy from India. But the government choose to grant to only Imota mill, BUA and like 3 others. Only friends of government.
The others have to source paddy locally to engage local producers. They are not satisfied.

But that's the same blueprint in Sugar also. Dangote is planting only about 20k hectares of sugarcane in Adamawa. All the rest is imported as sugar syrup from Brazil and just processed here. That why nobody else can thrive in sugar unless you can farm sugarcane too. You can't import syrup. Basita fell off because farmers stopped planting for it.
3 years of profit & u will be smiling. 1 year of loss, maybe due to red rot disease. and you might never recover. Insurance no dey for farmers here.

Back to rice. It was never about building mills but empowering farmers and settling for a long term ROI business model before you eventually recoup your capital.
But the average businessman joined the bandwagon of milling when a policy shift favored it. Hopes to buy paddy cheap from poor farmers and process to sell for 3x markup price.

I still admire their bravery to invest in Nigeria. But we consumers need them to lead a more patriotic business model.
Only backward integration can truly help local rice.

Are the batteries also used
How does the whole package work

The response coming from people celebrating Christmas in WInter. When Jesus was clearly born in Spring season according to the Bible is funny.

They are celebrating Cana Facuna day, established by emperor Constantin who wanted to unify pagan worship with Christianity for the sake of unity in his kingdom.

Their ignorance is worthy of laughter.

Everything comes down to the question of information.

Who is feeding the US with information it is using to proscribe solutions to the problem.
It's certainly not public outcry or sentiments that they're listening to because certain other individuals get mentioned more by the Nigerian public as complicit. The same issue with their December airstrike targeting a field in Sokoto whereas even social media has been reporting a settlement of terrorists around kainji dam region (Now seemingly active in kwara).

I hope they have trusted personnel or agents who are officially designated with the Nigerian government. So they fulfill all righteousness of working with FG but knowing the right Intel to use.

The 2nd thing is the information they are giving Nigerians. No explanations about Why or How or the effects.
Our own government only provides propaganda also.

They don't understand our problem. We don't understand the solutions they are bringing.

One thing I always point out to guys who claim they don't sleep with prostitute is that.
You will rather not know who she is. That's what you're saying.

Because if you're still following different girls around. Taking them out on dates and spending a little compensation to get them to open it to you. Some of them are blatant prostitute who deal straight up with other guys. You are the 1 that prefer the "no need to negotiate. Trust me, I will take care of you" method.

But of you're still playing the streets. Most of the girls you sleep with are actually prostitutes. You will rather not know ni.

Even people's girlfriend are straight up prostitutes to the guys that ask about that. It's her guy she doesn't show that side to.

No shades intended!

As at now

It's the photographer (Taiwo Aina for the New York Times) that they're calling out for framing the man and they said she's trying to pin the blame on ibos

It's really difficult to have a straight conversation in this country

Lol
Those that will fake your TV are not legitimate companies.
They don't care about copying your design. It's only the market value of your brand name theu want to exploit.
They just put your logo on anything that resembles a TV and sell at the price of your brand name.

Fake TV plenty for market if you no shine your eye.

ALABACONNECT:
I get your point but no TV set has a fake version majorly because no one can copy an interface of a brand. I have said that severally on this platform.

No matter how good, no company will risk the law suit because;
1. You can't copy interface of a TV set. Sets like LG, Samsung, hisense (to name a few) have unique interface. No one can

2. No one can copy a brands "boot animation"

If you need to get a TV set, you need to know what the interface looks like.


Let's assume a company finds a means to get it(almost Impossible), LG won't turn a blind eye because the lawsuit would be a straight win.

Trust you get.

No TV has fake version as much as LG
If you don't go to a verified showroom like Fouani, you will buy rubbish.

Also, from my own research, if it's high budget TV you want don't buy Chinese brands like Samsung or TVC. They make good medium end TV but the panel is also similar to what they sell as high end. They just put better casing.

Buy Japanese expensive TV instead. Like Sony Bravia or some Panasonic.
Medium budget - TVC

LG is Korean. Their best technology is their oled series. Any other series is just average.

I don't know why it's very common in Nigeria and people ascribe it as the best.
That's why guys like this make a big profit from converting TV like Hikers or royal to LG
