[color=#0000ff]Those people with split payments are really enjoying..... I only had 1 lucky instance. [/color]

Contact loads of sellers. I'm now an expert in hearing "No, we can't do that." Immediately a seller say this, I move to the next seller. No time to delay. The last split
payment I did I contacted 8 sellers, who turned down the offer, before one agreed. I don't even try to convince the one that said no, I just read their reply and continue with other sellers

motymop:
sorry for the late reply

Hi Solar Gurus, pls I need help!!!
I plan to setup a solar power system comprising of

200ah lead acid battery (monbat)
1KVA - 1.5KVA inverter.

What value of MPPT charge controller and solar panels do I need for this system?
I have a load of 450 watts and I intend to be running it while charging the battery too in about 6 hours of sunlight.

Your battery is undersized.

motymop:
It is pissing me off because i paid almost 32k for delivery and now i have to pay another $80

I'm really curious about the solar generator you bought, if it's not much problem, can you share the picture?

Valto:
6s to 21s JBD 150A lifepo4 Bluetooth bms available, daly 200a 16s Bluetooth also available

Thanks, this is big. Won't enter the location I want to use it in.

Anyone got link for a very portable 16s lifepo4 BMS with Bluetooth feature?

earthrealm:
Fill it 3/4 full with fresh tiger nut and add 1 teacup of water, and blend till smooth.

I do this, but with more than a teacup full of water.

NiyiOmoIyunade:
You said exactly what I was going to say.

I use Panasonics and Daikins (inverter AC) exclusively now - I had tried LGs and other brands but always got dissappointed.

My Panasonics and Daikin ACs chug along with no issues at all, ditto the Panasonic blender and hot water kettle

I have a Panasonic blender that refused to die

odimbannamdi:
-The VoC can go as high as 190V, so it carry more panels
- Heat dissipation feature is much better and less operational noise
- It is bigger and more aesthetically appealing

Edit: I will be using the new model in my current set up by next month. Hopefully, i should be able to give more first hand experience by then

That 190v is definitely a plus. Thank you.

odimbannamdi:
New Model now available!

POW-M60-PRO model - 65,000

HHJ-60A model - 57,000

Apart from the no fan and probably bigger connection port, please what's the additional feature of this model?

Anyone selling new 18650 batteries here? Hopefully 2600mAh capacity.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
How does their dollar master card work?

Same way other bank's dollar card works.

0taPiaPia:
I have 3 with access bank

I have two with access bank too, unfortunately their naira Mastercard debit card is now useless for international transactions. Lol

anungangampu:
So Aliexpress don't Support Maestro card(verve I think) or should I try harder.

AE does not support Verve, just MasterCard and Visa

FEGEITOK:
I read a terrible story. forget the Tesla!


Google this headline to appreciate: "Canadian Tesla owner says automaker locked him out of his car until he pays $26,000 for new battery"

Tesla sold more than 254,000 vehicles in Q2 2022. Of course they'll be disgruntled customers. That's just how it is. I still need me a Tesla

jonescosmo:
So I vexed and upgraded everything.

But because I am aiming to go off-grid, I vexed again and bought another Felicity 5KVA Hybrid 100A inbuilt MPPT & 500v PV Input, 2pcs of Felicity 9.5KW LiFePo4, 10pcs of Felicity 540W Solar Panels (Connected in series).

I wish I can get this angry and get that Tesla I've been eyeing

Congratulations on your setup.

Moneyboyz:
Top BMS, has anyone used it around here?
Hopefully it balances this battery.

Yes.

warrenweste:

I think it's even reduced to less than $20.

dejidotun2000:
Please what's Zenith's monthly limit ?

I think it's below $20. Dunno, tried to make payment of a $20 item and it didn't go through. I think it's about $16 or thereabouts. Not sure.

₦514.149/$ is now Zenith Bank's rate

Enyinne:
Thanks so much for answering and enlightening me on this solar issue. I do have minimum of 5hrs and maximum of 8hrs light a day ,which i think it can keep my fridge cold enough.
My question, will i still need 7.5kwh lithium battery if i should add panel to the mix ?
How many panels do u think i will add to it if need be ?

Thanks for answering my questions

With that hours of public supply, you can run your fridge during NEPA supply, assuming you don't have solar panels. But when you get solar panels you can run the fridge through peak sun period (10am to 3pm).

Yes, you do have need for that 7.2kwh battery even if you add solar panels. You can start off with 4 nos of 400w solar panels. Theoretically, you can charge this capacity of battery if totally depleted in 4hours 30 minutes of sunshine with this size of solar panels. You can add more for faster charging time.

Enyinne:
Finally here to seek advice on this solar installation. I hv a plan to have 3.5kva or 5kva solar to power my house. I will like a neat and compact sizing hence am looking at going for the lithium battery.
Hoping to power 55inches smart tv , 394 liter Samsung refrigerator, 7 led light , 3 rechargeable fan .
I will like to start using the solar but which comes first as i intend to start without panels but will buy the panel along the line and build up .
Pls Whats the wattage of this 2 electronic as I couldn't calculate it .

Pls i need advice on the way around this thing .

Thanks

The tv is 110w
The fridge is 120w-140w
3 rechargeable fans = 105w @ 35w each

Total load should be around 300w

3.5kva inverter can easily handle this load.

You can start with 8 nos of 3.2v 280ah or 24v 7.2kwh lithium battery.

I'll suggest you don't power the fridge more often, unless you guys have like guaranteed 5 hours/day or more of NEPA supply or you add solar panels to the mix.

I am in discussion with a mould maker on aliexpress, the mould will cost more than 3,000 dollars, weighing about 250kg. My question, which is best method to make this payment in dollar, any idea the freight cost.

You should source dollars @ blackmarket rate or try to see if you can source it via CBM rate through Form ’M’ done electronically You can contact your bank for more advise on this. But they'll ask for things like your company registration papers, Pro forma Invoice (Valid for three months from issuance date)
Insurance Certificate (Insured value should be 110% of Pro forma Invoice Naira value)
Regulatory Certificate, etc. It's not a short process.

For shipping you have to go through sea, what are the dimensions of the object? The maximum weight I've imported in China is still around 220kg and was about 2CBM. ETA was about 120 days via sea.

Also consider using Alibaba instead of AliExpress. They do it cheaper and understand international shipping more than sellers on AliExpress.

Some years ago I started my car and it caught fire

Why?

Trusted mechanic didn't plug in engine fuel supply hose properly after working so it disconnected during the day and poured fuel on the hot engine when I tried to start it.

I DIY most of my shit, most of our artisans and handymen are purely in it for the money. Yeah, I understand a worker gotta get paid to earn that living. But most of them just wants that - to get paid. They don't care about delivering any service.

They lack the basic attention to details, eg a vulcaniser will almost fill your tires with sand as he is repairing the tube and make a halfhearted attempt to remove the sand when replacing the tube. If you make mention of the sand in the tire, they'll tell you it's not a biggie. Or totally throw away your valve cover after pumping tire, after all who needs one after getting that right pressure?

Right pressure to most Nigerian vulcaniser = 50psi even if your tire is rated 35psi

The list is endless.

odimbannamdi:
You will notice that there are 2 inlets each for the positive and negative terminals for the PV array and battery(ies). If your cables are too large to enter one inlet at a time, you can split them.into the two provided inlets for each terminal. It works that way.

It wouldn't be so bad if you stock this

ojeysky:
This is something we could group buy on if it can fit naija human sizes(not the portable Chinese human ) ...the main challenge though still be maintenance since there won't be a service center nearby.

I've seen Americans in these rides. You know those dudes are bigger than us on the average

Biggest issue will be lack of service centre.

Eagba:
I'm not using panels cos I'm staying in a rented apartment now. but your whole system costed you how much? n I probably need inverter and battery names. thanks sir

Is there any law that restricts one from using solar panels in a rented apartment? My friends all use solar panels in a rented apartment. Also can't live in a house where the landlord has a chokehold on what I should do, as long as what I do do not negatively impact on the house.

ceaser:
I just don't know why this innoson guy has not thought of having BEVs in his lineup. Even if it is to start with a tiny car, affordable, small but with ample passenger capacity to see the adoption. I sincerely wish that with the resource and experience in his disposal, he dares that niche and start the revolution.

Yeah, I'll love a small battery powered ride like the Chinese Wuling for city runs with range under 200km

What's happening here?
