RomanceRe: Cynthia Obieshi Who Died After Sex Buried In Imo by mctfopt: 8:41pm On Jun 18, 2020
Ibime:
Nigerian press and disrespect for the dead.

Why can't two 25 year old lovers die in peace again without these hurtful insinuations?

How do you know they died during sex romp. Are they not wearing clothes? This could even be generator fumes.

Western press - Two lovers die in each others arms while spending night together. Cause of death unknown.

Naija press - Two undergraduates die during sex romp due to drug overdose. Pictures inside.
The comment I was waiting for. The report is thorough thrash. How can they be 100% sure that the two even had sex when there was no form of autopsy? 100% pure unprofessional reporting, 300% sensationalist publication. But I guess the majority love stupid sensational junk journalism sad

I came across this home solar air conditioner, purely operated with solar panels without need for batteries. Gentle men, I need your suggestions about this product.
Thank for your possible urgent responses.
It looks like a grid tie system. Not really something you will want if you are solely off-grid as I see where it is stated it automatically switches over to mains if the solar generated is not enough ie during cloudy times and at night. But it looks like something designed to help reduce cost of electricity/reduce cost of diesel (from DG) in offices that operate during the day that has a generator at work. In my opinion I think you are better off getting a low power system run off batteries that you can use at all time. But it all depends on what you want to achieve with it considering you may be looking at a system that reduces cost of electricity during sunny days/ reduce cost of fuel during the day.

I think inverter ACs have a way of saving energy when the room temperature reaches the desired preset.

That's one of the ways they are able to save energy.
Not really, at least not the inverter ACs I've seen. They continue drawing some current even when the room is cold.

I think I understand what you mean. You want the AC to shut down when temperature is already around 22 degrees centigrade right?
Okay, the blue knob allows for temperature down to a set value. You are right.
Can that thing handle the current requirement of an AC? I do not think so, it says there 2amps.
Check well. It says 10A at 250v. Good enough for a 1HP system. If something can handle a heater, I doubt it'll have a 2A maximum current rating.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 4:22pm On Jun 18, 2020
ojesymsym:
I am not sure that one in the link will work for you because it will switch off when temperature gets high which makes it more suited for a heater than for an AC that you want to stop when the temperature gets low.
Most AC have the feature for setting the temperature anyway, why an external device?
The blue one. The idea is to save energy. You don't want the AC to be running when temperature is ok and draining juice needed by other devices.

Please folks.

150w/12v panel in 4s2p configuration

versus

300w/24v panel in 2s2p configuration

All for a 12v system on MPPT CC

All factors (Panel brand, solar insolation, wire types/gauges) being equal in both scenarios

From experience, are there gonna be any differences in charging input/efficiency from the panels in either scenarios?
The two scenarios appears to be same IMO. Though I'll opt for the latter due to ease of connection.

Hi folks, my friend is looking for some temperature controller that can turn on/off air-conditioner at predetermined temperature at a remote off-grid site. I'm thinking of this.Does anyone have a better idea?

Thank you sir...
Going for the 100A shunt, is it fine?
Battery: 220Ah
Inverter: 12V 1100KVA approx. 880
Charging current: 15A

Pls you could explain with some calculations so I can learn from that too grin
Thanks
It should work.

It's a power source automatic changeover switch. Switches to reserve power if mains power fails and returns automatically to mains when it returns. However, it doesn't have capability to put off the reserve power (generator)

There's a newer version of it that can be placed directly in a distribution box. It's about 6 times 18mm, meaning it takes same ways as 6 single pole MCBs. The newer version has very improved transfer time just like an inverter.

Ok thanks.

Pls can you or anyone answer me.
If I shop all my goods from different shops will they be shipped as one or individually?
Goods are shipped by sellers, so unless the different shops were owned by one individual, shipping goods will be done by the different individuals running different shops at different times. The only time you can get the shipping the same time is if you use a third party shipping agent who will consolidate the different goods from the different shops and ship it as one to you in Nigeria. But the agent will still have to wait to get the goods separately shipped by the AE sellers.

Lumos is a scam and a total waste of money. People who bought into it simply didn't know what they were doing. In a village without grid where there is just a need for children to read in the night, it may make some little sense.
Lol at scam. But the product is "cheap" grin
Most of our people love it that "cheap". So MTN is there to fill that void in the market grin
