Car Talk › Re: Okoronkwo Kesandu Ogan, 1st Nigerian Obstetrician & Gynecologist, Mercedes Benz by mctfopt: 7:10pm On Jul 29, 2019
AutoJoshNIG:
Prof. Okoronkwo Kesandu Ogan was the first Nigerian to qualify as an Obstetrician/Gynaecologist.

He was also the pioneer President of The Society of Gynaecology and Obstetrics of Nigeria, an organization that was formed in Lagos in 1965.

In 1975, he was appointed as the Chairman, Federal Public Service Commission.

Prof. Ogan, born in 1919, was trained in West London Medical School (1950-52), University of London Medical School (1952-54; 1956-58).

The late Prof. Okoronkwo Ogan was from Bende Local Government Area of Imo state.

Below is a photo of the iconic Medical Practitioner and his family. The photo which was taken in the ’70s features the renown medical practitioner’s, Mercedes Benz.

Sending a truck load of well armed policemen to invite a woman who claimed she was raped is just so very wrong. It says to the woman that the police is working for the accused, otherwise a couple of officers could have stopped by her house to deliver the letter in a none threatening way
You made a lot of sense. The police do not need arms to present a letter. They do not need to go all out guerrilla tactics on the invitation. This smirks of intimidation by the police who must've been well paid by someone in the pastor's camp. For those saying Timi is talking so much, he should. That is the only way we get to know what is going on. Most Nigerian police are just mercenaries who follow the highest bidder. I'm surprised that people here are sort of coming for Timi's head. Nigeria is a dangerous country, police is not your friend.

Nobody wants to know if this guy is a victim of circumstances. He might ve preached against them, refused to join them, or date a girl who is being toasted by a kingpin etc bc we are helpless, anybody killed we find simple way to ease our mind by linking them to cult. If u are shot dead today, they will link ur death to cultism. Lets wake up.
Unless a case of mistaken identity, it is very hard for cultists to kill non cultists. You can get roughened up, beaten, threatened but never killed unless you are a cultist. But as usual, some of the people reading this and seeing this will still engage in cultism and still join. Sadly, we will continue to read such stories as most never seem to learn from history.

But our security agencies won't even bother to investigate, they'd arrive at the conclusion that it is cult related, which may not be so far-fetched.

Good evening house. I have been following this thread for more than a year now but this is my first time commenting.
Please I want to ask if I can connect 6 units of 200A battery to a 1.5Kva inverter in order to increase the back up time. If yes how do I connect it.
I believe by 200A battery you meant 200AH battery. To answer the question, yes you can connect it. But the question is can the 1.5kva sufficiently charge the six batteries? Also, what is the dc voltage of the inverter? Is it 12v or 24VDC? This will determine how you go about connecting the batteries.

This clamp meter keeps resurfacing as a reoccurring decimal amongst things I should have, having been able to get thru most applications I encountered with the use of the regular voltmeter.

Thanks for the prompt response.

Please how d'you measure the idle consumption of an inverter?

NB: I own a wattmeter, in case that is what i require, but don't know how.
You'd need a clamp meter to find out.
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41GiXKe8NwL._AC_SY400_.jpg


Clamp either the positive or negative terminal of the battery cable and turn on the inverter with no load connected to it. You can then be able to see the no load current drawn by it. A wattmeter can only check the wattage of devices connected to it.

Buy yourself a life jacket if the boat you board don't have one. My friend said people were laughing at him for putting a seat belt because he was at the back of a bus travelling for an 8 hour journey. People don't take safety serious in this country.
Travel › Re: Lagos Boat Capsize: Pregnant Woman Dies, 16 Missing In (photos) by mctfopt: 8:30pm On Jun 30, 2019
What happens to giving out life jacket to passengers? For the life of me, I won't enter a boat without one. If they don't have I just don't board. If it is an area I use frequently I'd buy myself one. Most people in this country called Nigeria play with people's lives and safety. My condolences to the people who lost their lives to this tragedy. I hope victim's family get to sue the boat company for negligence.

Got back home and it's still the same thing, no charge from PV! Wew, strange that a CC with over 120v still cannot start-up. My people any idea on what else I should look into, could this be a faulty panel or a problem with the connection itself?

Thanks
PS: I left the battery at 23v now it has discharged to 22.5v which means even with the high rays of sunlight it didn't pick-up at anytime while I was away!
How about emailing the makers/sellers your experiences so far? Most MPPT should be able to pick up at 80v and above. Though yours may be different, that is why you may need to tell the sellers your experience. Those with similar machine can chip in too. Well done

This is how it happened...

I posted an advert that I want to sell power bank on OLX. This guy called me as a buyer, we met inside University of Ibadan. He made a transfer, claimed he's on his way to church and also traveling but decided to branch to collect the product. During our brief conversation, he mentioned he's a distance learning student of the same school (UI), Post graduate student in department of Social work. Out of Goodwill, I gave him the power bank, didn't wanna delay him for church service and with the hope that network problem could be reason why am yet to receive the alert at that time. But, till now, am yet to receive the alert. I tried His number and it's no longer going through.
That's his picture. I snapped it without him knowing during the time we were both waiting for alert and he was using that opportunity to test the power bank.

Everyone should note his face and spread it far and wide.
This guy is just too cheap coz I wonder why he has to damage his image just to get ordinary power bank worth of 9k...
Have you gotten the supposedly 9k he sent? Taking his picture was a smart move. But next time do not release your property without getting the alert (via bank app) that the money is in your account. No matter the story, never release your item.

Ah, sorry if I wasn't clear [and I've had to catch my breath, hence this delayed response]. I used a thicker gauge wire (50mmsq) instead of the recommended 38mmsq.

Edited: The larger wire called for me to have to work through the somewhat precise space in the machine meant for a smaller-size wire. In the process, my "fat" hands pushed other things in the way of the fan.

You always see these statements when a victim of rape speaks out:

Why did she have to wait for this long?

She's doing it now for money.

This incident happened 100 years ago, why did she bring it up now?

She's just trying to destroy the man.

She certainly seduced the man.

And so many other BS.

TO ME, it DOES NOT MATTER the time the victim chose to speak up. There is this psychological issue of victims often trying to appease the perpetrators of crime such as rape. I applaud the young lady for speaking up.

Funny enough, this is not the first time this man has been accused of rape. Is he the only pastor in Nigeria with money? Or is he the only male pastor? Why must it always be him? I tire.

duwdu:
The summary of this post:

What I saw was that, in the process of installing the batteries' +ve lead into the inverter, I had inadvertently worked a clear acrylic flap adorning the top of the fan housing, INTO the fan housing, thereby obstructing the normal movement/rotation of the fan! By 8am, I had corrected the issue and the F01 fault was cleared. The PIP-5048GK has been flawless ever since. (Screenshot attached.)

Morals of the story:

My brethren, please know what you're doing while DIY'ing. The specs for some of our gadgets are precision based, even if the manufacturer has not specifically stated so. In this my specific case, the wire girth specified 38mmsq. I crimped the 50mmsq cables I had at hand and sort of worked them in. After all, one wire gauge up will be even better for carrying current, right? Well, I applied this teaching in a half educated manner and paid with aggravation.
Sorry for the stress. Please I did not understand some of the points you made above. Was it as a result of using a higher guage wire that the fan was obstructed? Thank you.

What I foreseen about this matter/issue

1. Pastor Biodun Fatoyibo will overcome these
2. Timi Dakolo music career will be killed through this matter.
3. There will later be a marital problem within Dakolo's family that will almost lead to divorce.
4. Bisola Dakolo will later seek for forgiveness from God & Fatoyibo.



So because the accused rapist is a so called man of God he can't be brought to justice for a crime he is said to have committed? So the lady cannot say how it is simply because the accused is a pastor? Damn, people like you make it super difficult for rape victims to speak up. If the man is innocent, let the court decide that

cute75:
So I met him today to ask him about this question.... He said I should ask you if u have practically tried it...That you are talking theorically....though they are threshold where ur theories are true....But science has elvovle and it can be maneuvered.
Big English though..
In my own opinion I believe anything is possible... Why? I once forgot to put off my frigde(medium deep freezer) which was connected to my 5000va stabilizer.....and my inverter which is 12v/1.2kva picked both of them...and was working fine for about 30seconds....I had to quickly turn them off.
So I believe anything is possible... And theories can also be changed or maneuvered.(my opinion though)
In this case, theory is same with practical. About your 1.2kva inverter handling a 5kva stabiliser is simple to explain. The 5kva inverter load may just be 10% of the rated 5kva since it's a medium deep freezer which should be about 400w. The stabilizer is not handling the full capacity of 5kva. Also a 1kva inverter can sometimes handle two times its rated capacity for short duration, say for not more than 60 seconds. It is called the surge or instantaneous power rating of the inverter. So, my friend, what you observed is electrically impossible. And I've got some experience on how some of these things work. Thank you.
