Science/Technology › Re: How To Create A Locally Made Inverter With Ease by Leopantro: 4:28pm On Nov 27, 2016

cool318:
Am too wise to be scammed as long as this thread is concerned.
I have experimented with different versions of external chargers many bought at very exhorbitant prices yet they didn't last.
His own is never a Solution to me cos UPS is never built to work for a long lenght of time and the VA cannot carry any heavy appliance in the House.
Inverters built solely for inverter purposes remains the solution for heavy appliance users.

let me give you my experience.
I bought a second hand 100aH battery, a 1000watt car inverter and the 20ah smart charger.
we only get electricity between the hours of 1.30am and 5am every day. during that time I charger my battery nonstop.
by 5pm I put on the inverter. it carries
1. 5 energy saving bulbs
2. two rechargeable fans
3. a Gotv decorder.
4. a portable DVD player with large TV screen.

of the bulbs at least 2 is on all the time as well as the rechargeable fans though not at full speed; the battery drains faster on that. the recorder and TV is on all the time. there is a plethora of phone and other chargers that are on as well.
I switch off everything by midnight when I'm about to go to sleep. thus I get 7 hours of electricity from my setup. I have two big generators I have not used in two weeks.
the moral of the story is the setup works and I also save on fuel.

I have an extra 20ah charger I want to sell when I find where I packed it; being looking for it for a while.
@ceejay, can you direct me on how to create a 12v pressing Iron?

9. If YouTube is forcing you to sign in, delete everything after the last “v=” and then change “v=” to “v/”.

the President's media folks and assistants ain't doing well and we have been complaining about that for many months.
Just imagine if the president had said " Mrs Buhari has ,like every citizen of our great nation Nigeria , the right to air their displeasure in a democracy. We shall look into her petitions ,and this should tell you my country men that despite being my wife , Mrs Buhari does not influence my decisions but a careful and delicate process does. Of course her worries which my busy schedules have not given me time to scrutinize is to blame for this. Let me assure all our supporters and Nigerians that they shall not be disappointed in our efforts at making Nigeria a great nation" or any other stuffs that the world can be comfortable with. But the cabal, who had plagiarized Obamas speech , probably influenced that embarrassing response in Germany. These incompetence that aid the Junaids of this world is what we want PMB to deal with asap or of what use is the cabal?

You lack wisdom. when the master gave one of his servants 5talent ,the other 2, and 1.. he never said the one with 5 was more important.

but he gave them according to their capacity... in essence of my reference ,I'm talking about GRACE because Grace differs..

The grace he carries can't be compared to others because GOD gave his servants the grace that fits their capacity.

If only you were wise , you would know I wasn't judging but making comparison ...

did the Bible not say "by their words you will know them?" should I make a "comparison" with below? do not fight the good Lord's battle. vouch for only yourself. Matthew 7:21.

Remember ZOE ministry? Men of God have come and gone.

The President of Omega Fire Ministries, Apostle Johnson Suleiman, Sunday 4th September 2016 at a church service prophesied that the PDP candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, will win the Edo 2016 election, even though the APC government would try its best to rig the election or create chaos.
“In this forth coming Edo gubernatorial election, the people’s will shall prevail. PDP will win but APC will try to turn the tables. But they will fail woefully.
