JoeSef0: That SMS inverter must be seriously overrated not to handle this load. I once ran a Scan Frost freezer (non inverter type) of 150w on a 1.5kva 24v Luminous inverter (on four nos 200ah lead acid batteries). Noticed the starting surge is like 6x the freezer's wattage rating as it hits a momentary 800w as it the compressor starts. If the inverter ain't the culprit, you may consider the battery next. If the battery ain't ok or enough, the startup surge may drop the battery below the inverter's low voltage disconnect. 1 Like |

kristien4: Can you share more on this? Hisense inverter AC currently retails for between 280k to 300k. Dunno the range for Thermocool. |

Kaynikks: Open dispute. If the resolution is to send items back (which is often a very expensive adventure) then do it. I only encourage people to send very expensive items back. Eg if I bought any item less than $30, I'll rather reach an agreement with seller for a partial refund rather than to send it back. When you get to FedEx and see cost of sending an item to China is ₦40k (base cost for very light package), you just gotta find another way. |

$ is jetting to ₦1500 and the so-called leaders are busy doing photo ops and playing politics. Ok. |

EduTechTainMent: It looks, to my untrained eyes, as if there was another label there that was removed to place this Trina label. Also, the label appears to be older than the solar panel. I may entirely be mistaken, just making assumptions based on what I could see in this picture. 3 Likes |

Juror: It does take measurements of say battery voltage which you can get from any voltage meter. But it doesn't really tell you accurately if a battery is weak or not |

LandMann: At bolded, a big NO. I found my third party shippers via checking online for em. Some of them may look sketchy but they do deliver in my own case. Please it's always advised to do your own research as I can't vouch for any of these third party shippers (yes I've once used them and they delivered). I'm also in no way affiliated to them. That being said you can check out the following 1) Nonikings Logistics (the Chinese number that ends in 2441 is on Whatsapp) https://www.nairaland.com/1819824/newly-found-shipping-agent-china#24807137 2) Hart Logistics https://www. hartlogistic. com /shipping-from-china-to-nigeria/ And others. |

LandMann: Before you make the order, you will chat up the seller and inform them that you have a shipper in China and then give the seller the shipper's address to send your package(s) to. This is standard practice in Alibaba, in AliExpress some sellers may agree to ship to your shipper in China, while others will not. AliExpress sellers often like to leave logistics for AliExpress to handle as they are insured, in the event of loss, AliExpress covers the cost of the item. Thus, many sellers in AliExpress are hesitant to use third party shippers, but Alibaba sellers (usually accustomed to big buyers) are accustomed to buyers having shippers, so no biggie here. That said, I've used third party shipper in both AliExpress and Alibaba. The highest a seller can say is no, I'll chat up another seller that may likely say yes. |
Technology Market / Re: This Thread Is Only For Aliexpress Shopper by mctfopt: 6:23am On Jan 03 |
LandMann: Third party shippers are just logistics companies not affiliated with AliExpress or Alibaba. Are they secured like AliExpress shippers? Well, yes and no, it depends on the logistics company you use. But I've never lost a dime using many different logistic companies based in China; I may just be lucky. There are many fintech companies that can facilitate payments for USD transactions. They include and not limited to Klasha, Bitnob, Chipper Cash, etc or you can open a dollar account and get your dollars in the black market and deposit in your dollar account. There are also individuals here that can help you make payment (do your own research on that). |

legendarygeo: Don't ship your drone with normal shipping. I'll suggest to get a third party shipper. Your device may likely be seized by the customs citing one useless security infringement that is non existent in our constitution or outrightly stolen. The third party shippers know how to navigate the customs wahala and duty. GTB dollar card offered some of my friends up to $50 during the Christmas sales, dunno if it's still giving such a discount now. I once bought a DJI drone off Alibaba, three years ago, crashed it on my second time using it Had to send it back to China for repairs (saw hell as many courier companies refused to take it citing fears it'll be stolen or seized). And had a seamless return (of course using a third party shipper) when it's fixed. Drone still flying |
