Jomonix:
Please confirm how often you change your batteries

Once so far

toujurs:
Honestly, Nigerians in general are criminals.

Most Nigerians are not anything different from tinubu, but why i am against tinubu is the way, he came into presidency. He killed the rule of law, to achieve his selfish interest.

I understand our frustration with the Asiwaju government.

I'm not immuned from the hardship sweeping across the land either.

Before we lift our fingers to accuse those in authority of causing our pains, let's do a self introspection on our dealings with fellow compatriots.

"Nobody holy pass"......2baba

harizonal123:
Mumu, there is hunger in the land and tinubu caused it. You are justifying criminality that everybody is a thief

I will ignore your invectives for now. The next time you throw jabs, make sure your accoutrements can take a blowback.

Obrigado!

harizonal123:
Pls how many times have you changed batteries for the past 6 years

Once.

The carryover from my rented apartment to my own house which I used for 4 years.

This tubular set are now 2 years

BAMOFIN1:
Thanks but I would have loved you, as an experienced user, to mention a brand or two based on your experience.

You are forcing me to reveal my brand.

Well I use Eastman tubular batteries.

Genus is equally very good.

The high end ones like Luminous and Sukam are superb but their cost is prohibitive.

The way Wike talks, you may be tempted to think that the electorates don't have a hand in whoever wins elections in this country.

He is brazenly unruly in his manners and language.

I sometimes wonder what gives him such pomposity besides the 100 years old wine he's acclaimed to drink.

BAMOFIN1:
Please which tubular battery brand do you use and how long can one hope to it? Also which brand do you know to be good and yet is not too costly?

Most Indian brands should do.

They are mostly produced from the same source. It's Nigerians that give them the multiplicity of names you see in the market.

Imagine the quantum of earth moving machines these Chinese would have deployed for this enterprise.

Only in Nigeria will such happen in plain sight without the authorities knowing

fashrola:
How’s your experience with that Bona chest freezer?

4 Years on, no issues

This minister is still eulogizing Buhari after all the mess he left behind.

Class monitor(Hadiza Bala) should please call him to order.

Ogaonos:
what d difference BTW inverter and solar generator

Sorry, I'm not into solar generators.

"Enugu state government is trying to settle problems with troubles"

Chief Johnson Okolo has said it all

I thought the Ruga project died with the exit of Buhari.

Please send him back to Nigeria.

Youthful exuberance still commands the better part of him.

By the time the present day naija finishes with him, he will be the one begging to be brought back like the prodigal son.

And please, don't pamper him while he's back in Nigeria by sending him euros . You will end up losing him for good.

paix:
I wanted to go for the inverter AC, but one technician told me that the AC panel easily develops fault. What's your experience so far?

I use LG inverter ac.

No issues so far even though I don't use it for more than 3-4 hours in a day. [Afternoons mostly]

It has held up good so far for the last 4 years. No issues.

Cajal:
How do you see tubular cell compared to dry cell?

I started off with VRLA batteries which I used before I started with solar.

I was charging with public power then and generator occasionally. I guess poor maintenance and undercharging killed them after 1 years plus.

Tubular can tolerate more abuse than VRLA batteries I should guess.

What kills batteries mostly in our environment is undercharging resulting in sulphation.

SonofElElyonRet:
Water Pumping machine? Iron?

Yes!

Ihp is like 740W Approximately runs for like 1hr 30min to bring my tank to brim( though not totally empty)

Philips pressing iron is 1kw.

Ironing is even better and less draining on the batteries than pump machine. It goes off when hot and starts again. Unlike pumping machine that runs continuously.

madgoat:
LIES 🤥

Because you know me and we live in the same house.

I know your type.

Carry your madness go front abeg!

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Ournolly:
The display on that charge controller is strange.
Are you sure it's mppt?
Looks like pwm.

It seems Nigerians have trust issues.

Thank God today is Sunday and I'm at home to clear all doubting Thomas's

Let me go and snap it for you.

jiz:
No 3.5kva/12v from kartel and kindly correct your self. Don't project yourself as DIY while giving false information to the public.

Did my post come as one that will be crafted for the purposes of misinformation?

You should have politely asked me for proof instead of making a flawed statement that impuned on my integrity.

What you don't know, another may know.
Don't be braggadocios in ignorance my guy!

For the umpteenth time, I am not an installer, neither does my business line relates to solar. I did my installation purely out of my love for solar technology and green energy as a whole.

I will snap the crate in which the Kartel came as evidence to clear your pompous doubt.

Not again!


Our security agencies are seriously overwhelmed by the level of insecurity in Nigeria.

After state police, if condition persists, we may start asking for gun licenses.

This madness must be met by an equal measure of madness for it to stop.

Nobody is endowed with the monopoly of violence.

I'm sure I will not recognize my university "town" when next I visit.

Good work GSM

Why does the government delights in hurting her citizens ?

Why didn't they tell us we were voting for IMF during the campaigns ( ie if our votes truly counted) ?

The government by every of its decisions seem poised to provoke a fight with the masses and heh! I don't see them coming out alive when "yawa gas" o!.

Jesu!

Coren has their work cut out for them.

With this, even bungalows will start collapsing in Nigeria.


They should not bring "shrinkflation" into the building industry abeg!

Targeted killing!

The only dividend of this our kind of democracy has been sorrows, sufferings, tears, and blood.

May God have mercy "uponus"

The same fate of CNG buses, wage award, student loans, cash transfer to the most vulnerable etc has befallen it.

All na scam!

Yampotatocarrot:
Pardon me, but do you need to rewire the whole house again? (Asking for those of us staying in rented apartments with concealed wiring)

Also, is there a particular way to calculate how many panels and what inverter will be needed to power an apartment?

Your energy need determines the size of your setup.

By wiring I meant, connecting the solar panels to the charge controller and mounting circuit of breakers etc.

The house was already primed for solar only.

bssman406:
You sure it was 12V? 12V is too small for a load of 3.5kva. It should be more like 24.

Very sure

safarifarms:
If your average is 900W or VA, isn't that small for such a huge array of panels? I get around 600 to 700 from around 11am for just 4x350W panels. Occasionally get up to 800 self. I've even been thinking this is low for my setup. I think the position of you panels may not be very efficient.

Agreed,

My panels are on my car port which is as flat as a table top.

It's now a huge project getting a slant on the car port but since I still get the batteries to float level everyday, I'm still comfortable.

I'm happy you noticed.

Kobicove:
On average how many years will the battery last before it will need replacement?

5 - 7 years averagely if well maintained, charged fully with each discharge and not discharging (DOD) below 40% in my case.
