favoredgal:


did you make it back?

NO ONE has been brought back yet, learnt fg is still trying to tie up so many loose ends, especially quarantine hotel in lagos/abuja, and total cost to be borne by returness

@triplet2015, are you coming back with baby?, is it safe to actually be in that flight with many would be covid-19 carriers?.
unless fg asks usa for help to screen each passenger before the flight, ie the 15mins covid-19 test

ahh, this once lively thread is almost comatose, corona tinz.
wonder how folks already in the usa to give birth are coping, most passport offices are closed, us embassy in nigeria is closed as well, so no way for the father in nigeria to notarize documents for babys passport as well

yeah yeah, ASA this virus ish lets go of its grip, i'll replace the inverter with a premium brand, not saying they are not susceptible
to damage too, but at least, the chances are lower given the same conditions.
the other items in the circuit are american and they handled the surge like it was nothing.
the chinese guy just went kaput sad sad

seems you dont hqve a stabilizer?.
why not hook up a centrl stab for the whole house and call it a day.
i have a `15kva central stab, guess why my mustpower hasnt had any issue till date

Dam5reey:


The connection is quite Simple, I use 1 Shunt and Two meters.

I used speaker wires..

There are 4 ports on the meters, See the connection below:
Battery + goes directly to the Battery
Battery - goes to the Shunt where load is connected in my case inverter.
Shunt -/+ connect to the middle section of the Shunt on meter 1, then interchange on meter 2 to get Charge and discharge

thanks, will try and hook up mine, your explanation is straight forward

Good morning Mama in the house and happy Easter Monday.

Cc: All mamas

Please I will like to ask mama that had carried out fibriods surgery to help me out. This is my third period after the surgery and it has not be the actual date I was expecting. It kept reducing by three days backward. Unlike before the surgery. My questions is, is this normal? Considering the fact that no doctor will want to give audience presently at the hospital.

You need to be specific, how many days was your cycle b4 the fibroid surgery and how many days is it now?.

You are lucky if you gol

If you take your inverter to Oshodi Arena, you can either have the board repaired or swapped out for a new one for like 35K all in. They will always test it for you there although no guarantee it will not fail again in 3 weeks or 3 months or 3 years.


35k, wow..it has happened b4..and resolved by its3lf after a while.guess i will find a way of using external display like dam5reey
Does the board have a name. Let me search for it on aliexpress

Dam5reey:


Yes, you are correct.
At fully Charged, I get a over 26V too under No Load..

I don't know why people Take resting Voltages, when your Inverter only disconnect under Load.

For Me, I use Under Load Voltages and it's most accurate for me...

See below I started at fully charged about 25.7 V there about..
Now I have discharged 400wh approx 17% DOD on 2400Wh battery
Voltage still above 25.1, which tally to the Graph posted.

Nice display. Could you elaborate on how you hooked it up. I have 2 of such lying around.

@All, the screen of my 5yr old 4kva mustpower inverter just went blank.inverter works ok though.
Any tips on how to repair this?
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Malevonent: 9:25pm On Apr 09, 2020
am thinking of replacing my 8 x 12v 200ah smf battery bank soon, as am tired of trying to keep them all balanced, 1 or 2 will usually drift off, and cause problems for me.. HA02 is connected, but doesnt seem to be doing anything, except emitting a high pitched sound

so whats the cost of an equivalent LIPO4 Bank that i can use to replace tis 48v x 400ah smf bank, is it true that a 48v 200ah LIPO4 is an equivalent replacement??

NiyiOmoIyunade:
The cells in one 12v battery should not be varying much between OK and FAIR per their SG readings.

They should all read very similar within a narrow SG band.

Might be time to get a temp compensated hydrometer with numeric readings.

Did the electrolyte in the batteries come from thesame source and thesame batch? Did you at any time have a spill or water loss wnd then topped off with additional electrolyte?

What is your equalize voltage per 12v? You should be at or above 15v for any meaningful equalization. It might also be time to break the bank and charge and equalize per 12v standalone.



i have mustpower, i use the equalize knob at .its either 15.1v abi 15.5v, not so sure again

@fan with remote, seems we are many looking for this fan

Interested in this as well, though found a qasa wall fan that claims to be energy saving.... ordered waiting delivery.

does the qasa have remote control?, am not too keen on it being energy saving, anything below 60w is ok for me.
its the remote control fxn that is my priority, since the fan will be hung high up in the kitchen ceiling

@gtech2sure, good attempt at the calculation, however several errors exist.

1. even though batt has 2400w, you can only safely take out 50 to 70% of it, best to use 505
2. your solar calculation is off, but since the OP says, no solar, lemme keep quiet
3. its best to size your inverter to be 2x or 3x the anticipated load, as inverter efficiency reduces if loaded near capacity. i would recommend, a 2.4kva minimum inverter

NiyiOmoIyunade:
Those cells needing topup are very likely the ones with highest charge and the best state of health. Them drying up faster than others indicates they are being overcharged.

Do you equalize the batteries? How often? You should get a good hydrometer and use it to help you find out what is happening with/to each cell.





yes, i equalize, about once a month, i checked the cells randomly, they are varying btw green and white, ie ok and fair

What are you topping it up with? And when do you too it up?

Malevonent:
what could be the cause and solution.
some cells in my flooded mecury 12v 220ah battery, need topping up before others, i top them up 2 or 3 times...before i top up the others.
has anyone expereienced this and what is the possible cause and remedey

i top up with distilled water.
lemme explain better, a 12v fla battery has 6 cells, i notice in mine, 2 or 3 of these cells will go down and need topping up before the other cells in the same battery need topping up.

in a normal battery, all cells should go down at the same time, and need topping up same time. mine isnt so

Want to ask, how do you count d days. For example if d couples meets on Wednesday, can dey go for the testcon Saturday. His dat 3 days abstinence or 2 days.
Thanks in anticipation
YES, they cud go for sfa on sta, i recommend doing 24hr counting, say a man ejaculated /had sex last on wednesday 3am, thursday 3am makes it 24hrs/1 day, so saturday 3am makes it 3 days...so u can cooly do ur sfa any time on saturday.
however be aware that some labs dont accept sfa samples on fri and saturday...as some dont open during the wkends..to properly monitor and culture the sample,

the avg nigerian lab, usually doesnt have a good/conducive place or room for producing the sample

Count is less than the WHO recommended which is 20 million, technically motility is 80% dead, Morphology is ok in my own opinion1This is too much minimum 3 days abstinence
2. take your partner there with you to give you mouth action

just out of curiosity why was it hand written?

bj not good for sfa, as saliva is a sperm killer.
if you find wanking difficult, then maybe you can get your partner to give you a hand job..ensure her hands are clean..and if you can afford it, use ttc friendly lube like preseed , though dry/without lube wanking is the best grin

cc Ralphtot
3ml is an ok quantity.
8days is too much..will give wrong result, are you not being handled by a doctor?..consider changing docs if actually it was your doc that sent you for sfa with 8 days abstinence!. 3 days is best.. 4 days still ok

So any idea about the calculation for this style of roofing, simple pitch roof. The one in question is similar to this, just that its a complete C shape unlike the one in the picture that is L shape and builder measured it as 146 square meter for 0.45mm long span And cost of over 500k.wood inclusive

Dont know if this is the right place to post this,

A WOMAN BOUGHT LAND ABOUT 40 OR 50YRS AGO IN HER HUSBANDS NAME AS WAS THE NORM THEN.
SEVERAL PLOTS OF LAND.WCH SHE EVEN BUILT HOUSES ON AND HAD HER INLAWS OCCUPY, THEY HOWEVER TURNED AROUND TO CLAIM THE LAND+HOUSE WHEN HER HUSBAND DIED.
RIGHT NOW HER PRESENT ABODE IS ALL SHE HAS LEFT.
SHE INITIALLY HAS BEEN CLAIMING THAT SHE BOUGHT THAT PARTICULAR PLOT IN HER NAME, BUT A CHECK BY CLOSE RELATIVES AT MINISTRY OF LANDS REVELAED THAT THE SAID LAND WAS ALSO REGISTERED IN HER HUSBANDS NAME.

THE QUESTION NOW IS, IS THERE ANYWAY SHE CAN SECURE/REGISTER THE LAND IN HER NAME, AND PASS IT ON TO HER CHILDREN SO HER HUSBANDS PEOPLE DONT COME TO TAKE THE LAND AT HER DEATH

NOTE;
1. ITS a polygamous marriage and her cowives has male and female children of age.
2. She only has female children.
3. Its in south east nigeria, with their cultural practise of females not inheriting any lands

Hello guys thanks for the good work you all do here.I would welcome any help I get here.

My wife and I are planning to apply for a B2 visa for US.We plan spending 2 weeks (24 August - 6th September)mainly sightseeing,shopping and could probably catch a game at the US Open.

I am the Headmaster of a school which belongs to my parents.My wife is a Banker and also owns a Beauty salon.We own 2 cars, 3plot of land which we building our own school on at the moment.Because of this project our bank statements total of 15,000 Usd.
Some few questions


1. Since we both traveling together do we have to fill separate online profile or one for both of us?.....BEST YOU ADD YOUR WIFE TO YOUR PROFILE UNDER FAMILY MEMBER
https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/applicanthome?sfdcIFrameOrigin=null
2. Do we need to fill separate DS 160?......YES AND INDICATE TRAVELLING WITH YOUR SPOUSE
3. The plan to apply early when at least we have some funds,20 February is available .As we wish to travel in August will applying in February be seen as desperate? ...NO
4. When is the best time to collect your bank statement?now or wait till few days to interview?..FEW DAYS TO INTERVIEW, SOMETIMES THEY DONT EVEN LOOK AT THAT SHIT
5. What are our chances of getting our visa?Any tip will be welcome......CONFIDENCE, HAVE READY GOOD ANSWERS TO LIKELY QUESTIONS....its appalling when a couple is asked how long they hv been married, some go errrrm errrm and start counting. Simply answer in a firm voice voice 6yrs, 8yrs etc!!!

You didnt mention kids, so i believe no kids rights?
Have you travelled as a couple together before.
Have a solid itinerary and make sure both of you understand it perfectly. The VO usually switches from side to side, asking different questions to man n woman

I deeply appreciate your reply to my question.

Q1. I was asking a question. I'm currently with a company at the same time, I have registered part-time business which also gives me money. How do I enter both in my DS-160 form or should I leave the business out? That was the question.

Flight from Nigeria to New York is far cheaper and it saves the family lots of money for other purposes while the revert is the case for Florida.
And I am thinking of overcoming the challenge at POE explaining that I am going to Florida as stated in my application but suddenly landing at JKF.


Newyork is among the us states near canada, and many nigerians/illegal aliens hv easily crossed over ro canada by foot.....so its likely gonna be a huge red flag for rhw VO, not withstanding ur supzd good intentions..
If you still insist of going this route, you better book and print ur ny to florida ticket for the interview....
Hope rhe supzd difference in flight fare is worth all this hassle?

I don't want to waste money on passport photograph that will not be.

Yes o.
I was of same thinking..and didnt go with a passport pic. Something i could hv printed 300naira for 2 copies in town b4 going for interview. I ended up paying 2k for it near the embassy in abuja.
They actually need only 1 copy...and they used it in the visa itself.
Last time in lagos they didnt use the pic...even though the routs at the gate talked me into going to take it.

2ndly reciprocity fee is cash 40700 naira, and you have 5 working days to pay for it if suceesful.

I saw many people who didnt come with it, or came with cards, and had to start going back and forth to pay it

time will tell warranty is not a child's play even though you sell with 30% profit

The young man should be encouraged, after all he isnt forcing anybody to patronize him.
Most of the sellers here are middle men, not pure sellers, they dont stock anything, but order from a bigger seller/distributor when someone here places an order.thus the reason why their prices are higher than OP"s and he might run them out of biz on this thread.

Its a free market, the sky is wide enough for all birds to fly without colliding.
As per warranty, i think you should speak for yourself, most of the other sellers here do not readily honour waranties, inspite of the higher prices they charge.
My eye open on ordinary batt balancer being sold for 12k to 15k on aliexpress, but most of the sellers on this forum list it for 28k to 30k.haba!
