Impact with a cow made the engine pop out

It's basic physics, an adult cow weighs between 500 to 1000kg, consider the SUV was moving at say 120km/hr and suddenly brought to a halt by a 1-ton object.

Force F= mass x acceleration

Mass of Innoson SUV= 1815kg

acceleration = 120km/hr = 33.33 meters/second (distance covered in a second is one-third the lenght of a standard football pitch)

therefore force acting on the car = 1815 * 33.33 = 60493.95 newtons

Imagine the crazy force at play here; this force will continue to act on this SUV (inertia at work) even when a 1-ton cow thinks it should do otherwise

I think Innoson should make use of this opportunity to generate some free good publicity and get the man a new Innoson just likeToyota did to that nurse's truck that survived the California fire or offer to repair the SUV for free

They had guts and got lucky.
Imagine what would have happened if they were caught? They'd probably be killed after collecting huge ransom. Now that the police is aware of the kidnappings going around the axis, I guess they should better keep a secret look at that part.

These guys will always look for a way to get a good guy in trouble. Because of these fraudsters, genuine dudes can no longer transact business. I spit on all of 'em! They have no conscience, all they think of is the money they will get. OP kindly return items to the sender with a note that he is being scammed. To hell with fraudsters! Case dismissed! Arise.

Which is better? Buying a generator or a solar inverter?

If you can afford a solar hybrid inverter plus the batteries and perhaps solar panels, I'd advice you go for it as you won't regret it. But you may still need the generator (occasionally to charge the battery in the event there's no NEPA and the weather is not sunny) I'm assuming you are going to use solar panels to charge your battery. You can always start small (buy only inverter and battery) and incorporate solar panels with time. But if you can afford all, go ahead you won't regret the money spent. This is just a recommendation, always follow your heart

send him like N50 five times(interval of 30mins), this will catch his/her attention, then from the sixth one start putting pieces of the message, also if he transfered money to you from his account, he may remember once he sees your name on the alert or he Googles your name, so u better write ur name and phone number on post here on nairaland.
make sure u keep d messages short so they don't get truncated.

This looks like something that may work. Give it a try.

Who's this troll?

In every thread, you'd notice the troll. They usually say something very outrageous, if you feed 'em by replying they grow fatter and say more outrageous things. But if you starve 'em like they are supposed to, they die off

Don't feed the troll. I repeat do not feed the troll.

My friend has never used a battery balancer or desuphator but his battery life is just great. Surprisingly, he's using a chinko battery

Is anybody here also experiencing the rate at which glo data gets exhausted these days.
Did a 2GB subscription about 4hrs ago without much activities online and the next message I got was that my data has been exhausted.
Still trying to figure out if the subscription I did then was real or not.


I will appreciate a better alternative to this rubbish.

Are you browsing on 4G? Check the amount of data used to be sure you did not use all that you subscribed.

I have learnt my lesson. The last time i did use the account was april and not more than twice. I actually did a test run on a random document, and did a project for someone else. Since then, i have been pre-occupied by other things. It was not until recently that someone with a Phd thesis needed help and i felt i could use the software only for me to discover it was basic. I immediately contacted him and after explaining to him, he told me he had since left the grammarly business. I then popped out his promise of a refund if things go south, he blocked my number and since then i havent ben able to reach him. I decided to try out another number which he picked and while explaining things to him, he deliberately cuts the line and blocked that phone number at that instant. Sincerely, if he had told me that he was sorry and that the account he sold is no longer "premium", i wouldn't have thread this route. I can only but marvel at the degree of lie(saying i purchased it for 1k) and also threatening me with a facebook page and a blog which he supposedly runs. Someone accused of stealing and lying and still having the mind to confront you just shows the level of his heartlessness. I will rather buy the monthly subscription from their site and have a rest of mind. Thanks for the advice.

Like I said before, he was not being straightforward with you on the deal. It's sad when people do business this way. If you leave your customers unsatisfied, you won't get their business or recommendation for a second business. But most business owners just want that one time penny, forgetting other businesses ahead that may get that rich. It's myopic and that's why some business owners struggle for years to break even. I'm glad you've learned your lesson, the dude that cheated you won't still be better off. Keep your head up.

...hmmm, 'fossil power' indeed but oil and gas will remain a staple for a while to come. Still accounts for the bulk of all electricity generation globally and when all cars go electric expect more 'fossil power' plants to be built...in the medium term.

Sadly, fossil fuel will be here with us for some years. But those who think of the future are already thinking of one without it. That is part of the reason that made Tesla the most sold out automaker in the USA in the last quarter of this year. A world without fossil fuel consumption is possible.

MarianaTrench:
Where will you charge it in Nigeria?

Funny you should ask that. Where do Nigerians charge the things they use? What happens to charging it via a solar powered station? It can go 400 mile on a charge, it's not like it needs charge after every 100 meters. If you can afford a Rivian, you can as well afford a solar powered home to charge the car any time it needs it

I'd buy me a Rivian. EV is now a way of life. Fossil powered vehicle are going extinct soon

You know what...post whatever you want to...i have my proofs...the chat we had...the money(3k) i transferred to you and others. You will also show them your own proofs too. By the time it becomes a criminal case at the DSS, we shall be releasing bank statements and the whatsapp chats...the internet never forgets. You just displayed your stupidity by telling what you will do. and this would be evidence also...so go ahead...i am waiting...i have nothing to hide...and i did no wrong by calling you out...cos you reneged on your promise...

Even though it's dishonest to renege on terms of the agreement after payment on a deal, I'd say you got a sweet deal at 3k. I'm assuming you've used the account since March till now. A friend got an account from Grammarly at 23k for a year during their promo. Still, it does not make what the seller did to be the right thing. That is why I always walk away from claims that are too good to be true. No one can sell a Grammarly lifetime account unless of course, the person works for Grammarly. I see a lot of people touting lifetime Grammarly use, it is not like you can hack the account as it is not an offline software, you have to log into their server in real time to access the premium (and even the free) features. I think what the sellers do is to subscribe to Grammarly, then sell the login to as many people as they can to cover the subscription they did. Then some of them deliberately mislead their buyers by claiming its a lifetime thing to get them to commit. That is a low key scam.

When he dies now, you will see a star-studded burial ceremony.

I saw a Bankole Wellington that donated $1000, it could be our Banky W

OP why did you not link the gofundme account for him?

Edit: I see they have raised $3420 out of the $50,000 that he needs

Let's also not forget that this virus was created to render Africa cripple and useless... The white are always reporting the case of Africa that means it's a virus for Africa.... For example the experience a lot of lips kissing and also do skin to skin fiolele but they hardly talk about the infection killing them... Hmmmm I just hope black rules in heaven

This is BS.

dzing:
I thought they were supposed to call or message me. I have 2 post offices around me here, is there a way to know the exact one?

Try the nearest, they have a way of identifying which post office it may be at. Sometimes they don't call, or they may and your number didn't go through and due to volume of calls they make may not remember to try your number again. Just go to the nearest post office with your tracking number and means of identification (preferably national ID, driver's licence, or voter's card).

I hope you know what they say about an offer too good to be true? It definitely always turn out to be so. I have to say that this offer can never be true. If true, the OP won't ask for a paltry N1500.

The thieves making sure Nigeria never gets better.

the website is owned by a nairalander, lots of nairaland gamblers on football thread lost huge amount of money to that fraud website.

Surprisingly I never heard of the website till you guys started discussing it here. After the ponzi fever, which I never participated in, but seeing how it burnt a lot of people, I vowed never to be a part of any online business which involves investing money on faceless people for a promised return. If I can't see you physically, and your website got no standard escrow service backed by solid firm, I ain't sending you a dime.

Always explain what the person did in your post.

Demela:
This escrow platform ensures commitment from buyers and sellers and filters out fraudulent transactions or attempts.

As a buyer, you are guaranteed, you will get your product with agreed specs delivered to you or you get a refund without hassle.



Don't take our word for it, try it and see for yourself and feel free to come back here and share your experience.

Thank me later.

Why should the members of this platform trust you? For the life of me, this could be another scam.

Thanks for the reply. I appreciate.

You are welcome.

How many watts solar panel is needded to charge 200ah battery daily?

This is a tough question to answer. First, one can calculate how much panels based on factors like number of hours sun shines in the area. Others also include on whether the battery will be in use during the charging. What load may be connected to the battery at the period it is charging. I'd hazard a guess and say two 250w solar panels may just do the trick.

Deluxe8000:
Pls how will i know if the charger is charging well?
Which is the best for proper charging? Slow, mid, fast or poweful

It depends on the battery type and size. It'd require some measuring device and some patience. Eg get a clamp meter to measure the dc current the charger outputs. Also, measure the voltage of the battery. I've seen many chargers and inverters stop charging at 13.5V for a 12V inverter or 27V for a 24V inverter. The problem is once the inverter senses this voltage, it'd cut off charging the battery. The battery meanwhile may require additional voltage and current applied to really bring the battery to full charge. There are sophisticated chargers that can automatically handle the charging. But the sad reality is if the combined wrong charging plus high load might have irreversibly affected your battery. In that case, you have no other choice but to replace the battery.

In fact, in igbo land, we have a saying that shame does not catch the mad man but his family members.

I know what I am saying.

People shouldn't hold off on their happiness, especially when they are not doing anything illegal, simply because some certain group of people may not approve.
