Dollar refund is faster than dollar to Naira. While GTBank Naira MasterCard was still active, my refund is usually 24hrs - 48hrs. My Dom account na within 24hrs on the average.

Oh, that's cool

Has anyone gotten over 3000 cycles

My first lifepo4 was gotten in 2019. Battery is still kicking. Dunno if I'll get 3000 cycles, but the performance appear to be the same as in 2019. No regrets.

2 busbars, thats how standard busbars come--naked. only the thinner 230ah bus bars come with insulation.
the insulation on the busbars arent tht critical. you can build your packs without it.



The statement that superior busbars do not come with insulation is not accurate; my busbars were insulated and of high quality.

🤣 Na roofing nail and one type of glue for roofing I use. The dish is hooked into the roof gutter also


Please is the other sides with white stuff standing only on the aluminium roofing sheet? I don't seen to see nail line to signify there is wood underneath there? I'm asking as my friend intends to do a roof mount too and we are having difficulty in the install.

Thanks alot man.
This is the apple airpods I wanted to order from them.


Check the stores review of other products, this looks likely to be an Apple airpod clone. It is unlikely it is original product

Boss, Selina is here I can confirm that to you.
There is little she can do?
I pray your case will be different.
You may not know what I and others have passed through. One guy whom I believe is here too ordered for his cells from her in June last year and waited till March this year. There is nothing that guy hasn't done to get his good. He finally got tired and ran to Alibaba for refund and I thank God he got his money.
Most of us never knew how tideus and complicated shipping of cells are, neither did we know how careless most of the agents are. We only knew her as we paid for cells and shipment, hoping to receive our goods within the time frame in good condition.
If there is any issue along the line, it's "solely" her responsibility to keep that communication link constantly open to her customers and not to abandon them.
In my case, she left me to my faith when she told me to have patience a month ago that my consignment has issue. Ever since then, she has stopped responding to all the messages I dropped in her box trying to get updates. I was totally confused on where to run to, whom to call and how to retrieve good.
Other members here were the ones talking to her on my behalf as she has stopped talking to me for reasons unknown to me. She still told one of the guys here last week that my consignment has issue with customs unknown to her that my consignment has arrived since.
The local forwarders couldn't trace my good because there was a mixup and it wasn't properly labelled. Out of the four cartons ordered, my name was only written on one carton. I had to pay someone to help me and trace it and I'm very happy it was successful.
I've paid for the shipping again now even as Selina has already been paid and those goods will reach my house today. If she likes, let her eat the shipping fees I've paid to her.
I've moved on as I've also learnt......


You should've used your own agents. I never allow Chinese do shipping for me

Wirepay so far has the lowest exchange rate

Hidden charges? These guys have finessed the deal so much you don't know when you are getting a good deal or just a bad deal masked as a great one.

Good evening house,pls is there any protective device i can get to protect my inverter and solar set up from thunderstorms?

1. Install a lightning arrestor on the electrical system. This device will divert the lightning strike away from the inverter.

2. Install surge protectors on the electrical system. These devices will absorb the surge from the lightning strike and protect the inverter from damage.

3 Install grounding rods around the inverter. This will help to dissipate the electrical charge from the lightning strike, reducing the risk of damage.

When I see people advertise these "solar DC freezers" at exorbitant prices, I wonder what's the usefulness since the watts used is similar to an ac freezer minus the starting watts for compressor. I'll even get an inverter ac freezer over the solar freezer as I see no advantage

Almost most of this solar freezers are so frail as the importers usually buy the cheapest with zero regards to quality. You are better off buying reputable low wattage AC fridge and freezers.

Good day guys

Please has anyone ordered Drone with good camera, stable control & affordable from Aliexpress, i need recommendation & store if possible from the pros here, its really important & urgent

Thanks@all

Buy any DJI product. Mavic Mini, Mini 1 or 2 is a great way to start. Avoid any other make you see, forget their 4k and 6k bogus camera specs and wonderfully edited pictures and fake 5-star reviews. You will regret it if you buy any other make. I bought mine from Alibaba though. 3 years and no regret

Everyone is talking about Gotok but no one is talking about Pyypl. Truth is, pyypl is better than gotok... very small deposit charges (0.01BUSD) compared to Gotok (1% of amount).

2.8 review doesn't look so good for pyypl

Hello everyone.

Coming from someone who has used the edifier tws 1 pro, what would you consider an upgrade for me in terms of sound, battery life and general longevity.
I love the earbuds but someone greater seems to be using mine recently.

Try 1More Comfobuds. Battery life is like 5hrs approx. Great sound and really comfortable to wear. Who is that someone greater that is using yours? grin tongue

Another video showing the setup with starlink. You will need to factor in the cost of all equipment to see if it's worth it. You will need 2 of the devices beam one to the next, plus a router at the 2nd location as well. Other things to consider are the electricity issues, reduction in speed, etc.

Yeah, cost is of major concern in this project. Thank you for your input.

Watch my Starlink Unboxing & Speedtest Video

The problem also is that Starlink USA ships it to Starlink Nigeria and uses your name as Care/Of C/O. So please make sure you contact DHL and update your information with them IMMEDIATELY you get your tracking number.

My friend has Starlink and we are brainstorming on how to extend it to another house on the same street 2km away. Got any suggestions? Thanks

This is not about saving money, I went through all the store that I know today I did not see that jinko, saw this choice, vip and sunflex or something like that,

Jinko seller will do interstate shipping for you. You don't even need to physically visit their outlet.

Bros before you confirm you're disappointment with the panel. Can you ensure

1) it's not "backing" the sun and is on an axis that harness sunrise and sunset in your location.

2) if you already have no 1 sorted. Please consider optimising the tilt angle of your panels. This often overlooked factor can mean the difference between generating 100WH and 130WH in the same position.

Try this first before concluding (this is assuming you've not tried it).

All the best my oga.

He employed a solar meter to assess the energy generated by the solar panels, so it's likely he found the most suitable angle and sun position to get the best results since the panels are probably on the ground.

I'm hesitant for the moment because the company is an immigration specialist and they've been building the brand for a few years. I want to give them a bit of leeway to make things right.If nothing is done by Saturday then I will know they are acting in bad faith and will put into motion efforts to warn Nigerians about them so people don't fall into their trap.
I'm trying not to be too hasty especially as they gave me a call yesterday to tell me they are working on solving the problem

Ok, didn't know they are on it. Thought they ignored your complaints.

Everybody should avoid Vesti dollar card. Once your money is in their dollar card ,you can't use it for any purchase big or small and they keep telling you they are working on it. but you cannot liquidate your money so it's effectively trapped. Im mulling reporting them to FCCPC as well as other relevant agencies.
