boss you can lie. i don't even believe your story. the man whose picture you posted is a politician in sierra Leone. his name is alhaji apha khan. u can google
him.

He couldn't even get a more random photo of not a public
figure to use

What ever you do
Neva ever buy a Luminous Battery

Thank me later

We will appreciate it if you can share your unpleasant experience with the battery.

The governor elect seems trustworthy..... My question now is, why is it that TB Joshua like using this world. the best Is yet To Come I've been waiting for the best in this country since I was born in 19 97 and is like the best is not coming anytime soon

Hope is a powerful tool

I think I'm seeing a new trend to scam unsuspecting people. A scammer can do a little deal with a known dealer to earn cred as an honest dealer. Then wait and strike unsuspecting victims for a bigger money. So, now fellas, be careful who you vouch for. Because when shït hits the fan, the victim(s) are gonna come for your a5s

The killer will forever be on the run. They should sentence the tea seller to life in prison. He needs it for hiring an assassin to kill on Jos behalf.

Why shouldn't we use it? Incomplete information is dangerous

Why not use firewood?

Firewood is a health hazard, users run the risk to develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer, asthma and contract tissue damage.

HSE is very important.

Observe the simple rules, do not light up a match if you perceive leaking gas. The smell test can save lives.

Also, avoid placing gas cylinders near source of heat.

Buy genuine gas cylinder and gas regulator.

Don't fill up gas in shady plants.

Do not overfill your cylinder. I know awoof dey sweet but keep to the recommended gauge for your cylinder.


Lastly ensure adequate air circulation in areas where gas are kept.

I've used cooking gas since I was a toddler, I'm still here with zero wahala. Cooking gas are safe. Just obey the rules.

Here's wishing the wounded quick recovery.

Nigeria hospitals are not charity organisation. No matter how broke you are, you can never walk into a bank and ask for free money. Most people don't want to pay hospitals for services rendered. They'll promise to pay when the problem is holding them on the jugular and try to abscond the next moment it is fixed. I do not blame hospitals that refuse treatment until payment, I only wish there is a way to ensure the patient is covered (a sort of insurance that will pay the hospital) for the basic first aid and nothing more until payment is done.

Every worker deserves their wages, and so it shouldn't be any different with the hospitals. What I don't really like is the turning away of patients, by our Federal Medical Centers, for lack of bed space, the government should ensure that this rarely happens.

I like the investigative reporting by the journalists. They've sure got some big balls to dare to shine some light on the dark corners of the war on terrorism.

Hello All,

Is it possible to connect the AC output of an inverter (5KVA) to the AC input of a second inverter (1.5KVA)? Planning to do this to charge a second battery bank that does not have solar attached to it. Also, the second inverter and battery bank will power other isolated equipment.

What do you experts recommend?

Is it possible to do that? Yes. But is it advisable to do that? The answer is NO. If you have little power from PHCN, I'd suggest you charge only the 1.5kva with it and use it as a backup inverter while running the 5kva 24/7. Or if the solar panels is enough, you can always add the other batteries to the 5kva and run only one system. I'm assuming the batteries are of the same age, size and everything. But it is not a good idea to try to charge another system from a bigger one. Are you trying to pull off a perpetual motion machine? JK.

Disclaimer: not an expert

60% advocates that OP should take friend to a religious house.

30% recommends OP should tell friend to try some drugs and some even claim to have the drug which smells of scam.

Only a paltry 10% suggests he needs to see a dermatologist or a medical expert.

Nigeria is a tough country to seek advice from as majority will always give you false information.

OP please take your friend to another hospital, this time ensure it's a federal medical center with enough professionals to actually find out what's going on with your friend. I'll suggest you ignore people dropping numbers for a miracle cure package.

Smiles! That is another name for Viral gastroenteritis. A condition characterized by heavy stooling( watery) and vomiting almost at the same time. The patients lose body fluids and in severe cases will have to be administered drip.

Thank you. I guess this learning never ends

Juliearth:
A friend of mine lost her mum to Doctors' carelessness. The mum was diabetic and came down with "2go". She was admitted and administered with a drip that had glucose in it. The woman went comatose and died shortly after. These days, whenever my mum falls ill, I follow her to the hospital and I don't fail to sound it aloud that she has HBP, lest they prescribe drugs that would do her more harm than good.

Out of curiosity, what is 2go?

I read that and I was like, "what da heck did I just read?"

Lamborghini Trattori is an Italian tractor manufacturer. It was founded in 1948 in Cento by Ferruccio Lamborghini, who later went on to establish Lamborghini Automobili which manufactures luxury automobiles.

eleojo23:
Good evening guys, please how good are Fullriver batteries?

Very good. But shine your eyes to get the original.

justmi1:
because the car would become his which the owner may not be happy about, "the car owner" is a suspect, and only a suspect ofcourse until proven otherwise.
Just that in Nigeria a suspect actually sounds like the convict.

Car owner won't be happy after making money off the dude? Damn. The way some of us reason is tragic.

Amuatulu:
First suspect "Owner of the car"

Does this make sense to you? Stop reasoning like the typical Nigerian police. Why will the owner of the car want him dead now that he is about to finish payment? The best line of inquiry will be to check his call logs for that day. Everyone that called him that day is a suspect. Their daily activities checked and phone location data can always be verified from the network log.

tonididdy:
I had to go read what you wrote again and am trying not to be angry because I do not know your upbringing or educational background, you maybe lacking in those areas.

I haven't even written a mail ever to you, I guess you sent me one because I can see it up on NL page that I have a msg from you but like I told you before I can't access the email attached to my NL profile. I just came online now to copy your email you shared before which I hadn't even saved before and to my suprise you writing this thrash about me.

And what if I am not an ICT guru? Wetin I want use your number for, you opted to help me and turned out to paint me bad.

Being suspicious comes as a default for most Nigerians

You can't really blame someone bitten by a snake for being afraid of an earthworm

Our hospitals here is not up to the task... Try outside bro.

I'm surprised that after all the warnings the man with unknown picker was able to get some folks to send him money. This is really sad.

Election in Nigeria is funny.

She's kinda right in a way.

Pete edochie is a stereotyped actor.

Once you see him you know what he's going to be doing.

Kinda makes a person too comfortable. Plus he knows that he will always get roles as the Grandaddy of Nollywood.

I dont have to mention how Joke silver and Olu Jacobs bore me with all the accents. *eyeroll*


If anything I'd choose Chiwetel Agu and Patience ozokwor, Even Onyeka Onwenu.


But that's just me.

My favourite actor Leonardo DiCaprio is one man that can never be put in a box. Never. You never know what to expect with his movies. That's why he has played so many biographies and brought famous books to life.

I agree with you on Pete being typecast, and Leonardo being hard to figure. From lover boy in Titanic, to a con man in Catch Me If You Can, to a mercenary for hire in Blood Diamond to a crazy guy in Shutter Island. Dude is just a great actor not your typical typecasting usually done for Pete. In Pete's defence, his age leaves very little to type of roles he may get. He is the father figure and often chief or rich man. Lol.

Do you know why their data last longer? It is because there will be no network to even use the data

Depends on where you are. I blaze with Glo 4G!

ojtech8291:
I want to calculate DC cable size from module to CC and from CC to Batt. and from Batt. to Inverter. Thank you!

See what will determine the cable sizing, the configuration of the panels, and the distance of the solar panels to the CC. For instance, if you are connecting all 30 PVs in series from a distance less than 10m, you can comfortably run it with a 6mm² cable; reason is simple, high voltage with low current (same reasons power transmission cables are not so big). But if you are connecting it say in 5S 6P (5 in series and 6 parallel) we will be looking at cable sizes from 16mm² and above; as the voltage will be lower with corresponding high current due to the increased current as a result of the parallel connection.

This online calculator may give you an idea.

Both batteries are reading 2.12v on voltmeter i got

cc earthrealm

Time to try to charge it parallel with a working system. Find a friend with a working system. Turn off the friend's inverter and connect your battery in parallel with theirs. You may require the services of a sort of expert to pull this off. After some minutes, say 30 minutes of charging. Disconnect your battery and measure it. If the voltage rises to about 8v or so and stays there, you may just have a working system. But if it didn't, you may just have to get a new battery. I have once used this system to revive a battery reading 0.5v and 1v etc. But sometimes the batteries will refuse to retain any voltage in them after this stunt. By then, you just don't have any choice but to sell it as scrap and get a new one. It's a tough pill to swallow, but then there is some lesson to be taken off that experience.

Check the diagram attached; a very rough hastily sketched diagram but at least it may give you an idea of the connection in parallel. Please mind the polarity of the batteries while doing this, hence the need of an expert or someone who knows about battery connection. This is just to give you an idea. Cheers.

can i use a UPS as dumb charger? if not where can i get a dumb charger please

First, I think it is better you find out the voltage of the battery. There are very cheap meters out there that can do that. To answer your question, the UPS can not function as the dumb charger. When you find out the voltage, the best option is to try to charge the battery in parallel with another healthy battery. This is just a 50-50 affair as your batteries may be irredeemable at this stage. But you can't be sure unless you've tried all the options available.

grafikii:
Thanks, pics below

Most smart inverter chargers will not charge batteries that are below 10v. You can only charge the battery via a not-so-smart charger a.k.a dumb charger or by connecting it in parallel with another battery charging via an inverter.
But first you'll require to find out the true state of things via measuring the voltage of the said battery. You may need to disconnect the battery from the inverter to prevent further drain of the little juice remainder in it.
