I currently use an hp elitebook folio g2 1040p and I am looking to upgrade and I'm stuck on choices.

Any suggestions on uk used laptops that cost between 290k and 330k will be very helpful.

Don't mind hp or dell, don't mind any manufacturer in fact, I just need a laptop with a 14" screen.

Any help is much appreciated. TIA

eleojo23:
100ah battery: 45-50k
1unit of 150w panel: 25k
20a solar charge controller:5k
1000w Pure sine wave inverter from AliExpress: 20k

Total: 95-100k

With this setup, your laptop can be on for even more than 8hrs whether NEPA brings light or not as long as sun shines.
Note: Ideally the panels should be 2 for faster charging of battery but since you are on a tight budget, you can start with one and add another later.

I really appreciate this bro, thanks so much.

Valto:
what u need..
100ah battery is about 50k(there is a guy offering few months used mercury 100ah battery for 25k on the forum)
30ah PWM CC for 8 or 9k
1000w or 600w pure sine wave inverter from Aliexpress or jumia around 25k
2pcs 150w panel is around 20k each
.. then u are good to go.

Please can you point me to the guy (selling for 25k)? Thanks so much...

Is it possible to charge with Nepa light if I'm not able to buy the solar panels just yet?

Valto:
like seriously?,3kw load for 12hrs non stop? to power 3kw load comfortably, u need not less than 8pcs 200ah original batteries
5kva 48V inverter and atleast 6kw of solar panels. thats if u intend to run the loads mostly during the day oo

Please I have a 45W laptop that lasts for about 7hours, charges full in <3hrs.

Power supply here is erratic and I don't want to spend money always on fueling my generator it's big and I turn it on several times daily just for charging my laptop, please are there any budget friendly set ups I can invest in? Ideally 50k - 100k. Would love to be able to charge my laptop (and phone too) for at most 8hours a day.

Any suggestions please, thanks in advance.

Are u in Osun so we can meet physically?
I buy payoneer

I am in Ekiti so I'm not sure...

I just started receiving payment on payoneer and I'm looking for a fast, easy and reliable way to sell my $$$ at good rates too. Please what have you used in the past?

Someone I met online told me about sendvalu, have you heard of it? What do you think?

TIA

Hi all, I need to apply for a gtbank domiciliary account and I need to find two referees that has domiciliary accounts already to do so.

please if you have a dom account and stay anywhere in Ilorin and wish to help me, I'd really appreciate.

Am not sure if I worded the title correctly.

I use the internet a lot mostly for online hustles and so far I've been using my phone's hotspot for my laptop. I got fed up today while I was on a video conference call as the connection was really slow.

Please If you own a WiFi or MiFi and you're based in Ilorin (preferably) which company do you recommend? I've heard good of smile, Airtel and co and I've also heard bad about them and I'll like to hear from you all now. What WiFi do you use? Is it reliable? Do they have affordable data plans? How much did you get the MiFi (I prefer to buy a MiFi as it's going to be for personal use only.)

Thank you..

This is soo sad.

You are already claiming him. LMAO Before you start calling people names he wasnt educated in Africa

screw you. He spent most of his childhood in SA.

mustafa006:
Escoos me, come again pls

it's called the boring company!
Not Boring as in when you're bored. "Bore" as in borehole. In this case, the company bores Tunnels.
You're welcome.

I don't know if this counts. I've been freelancing for close to six months now I've worked with people from Australia and the UK. of all, the UK guys/company I've worked for are the best so far. Very honest and seem not to have a problem sending more clients my way despite the fact that I'm Nigerian and live in Nigeria.

I don't know how it feels when one's there sha. this is my observation from the few I've met.

Kitanayo my only advise to you is not to consult Nairalanders on sensitive issues like these. Most of them typing and judging you up there are hypocrites and very immature.

Next time if you have a question like this or you still wish to seek better opinions, quora.com is where to ask it and make yourself anonymous before asking. There you'll receive better and more matured opinions than what our Nigerian experts are dishing out here.. Peace

On my part, I understand that you need to satisfy your sexual urges as a human being. It's better you forget your hubby and find another man that'll love you. cause reading your story, I don't think he's coming back to you!

Alariiwo:
You should be grateful to the Yorubas for whatever structure you see in the SE today. Despite generating over 60% of revenue in this country, we didn't complain about huge federal allocations to the SE with "5" states instead of 2 or 3 despite contributing least to the economy.

When everyone goes their separate ways, the huge revenue generated will stay in SW and will be used to develop SW only. All those brown roofs will change to modern sheets. Airports and Seaports will spring up everywhere.

You can go and drink Oil with SS people who still wallow in poverty despite their x5 allocations and derivation funds.

You mumu Die!

Dear not every men though their is difference between lust and mere look

Good morning, So I just competed a job for a client based in Australia and for almost 5 days now, I've been looking for how to get paid without having my client stress himself around and pay exorbitant fees because its a relatively small amount. AUD40

Please how can i get paid.
Western union and moneygram fees are just too high.
Payoneer dont let me request payment from Australia.
I just found out about google wallet, Payza, World remit, transfermate etc, but i'm not sure if they actually work.

If you work with foreign clients, how have they been paying you.

I look forward to your responses thank you!

seunthomas:
Mr man, stop making nonsense noise and lets go head to head. Infact i will allow you pick the language you want me to write the y pasters. You don interview every polygot programmer before

Are you an expert [at programming] ?

seunthomas:
Seems like you dont know me? You must be high on something really cheap......

Lol, I'd be shocked if he dosen't know you!
You're already a celeb na

texanomaly:
It rained everyday for two weeks. Then let up some. Now it's on again. This area needs the rain, but I tire o. The rainbows are nice though.

Almost same here, Rained heavily for 1 week, then started again and has been raining at one day intervals for 2 weeks.
It's too much

kanayoNickel:
Thank u really.

That's how yo spot a rookie or intermediate rookie.

I never implemented MVC back then but I am looking into the points u raised now.

U are d best .

keep finding faults ...security wise, everywhere wise.

For some reason, I find this sooo funny

specs are deceiving, buy these phones and you'll regret it.

AfricaNigerian:
Thank you sir...... Please share Me your site link I might be able to learn something new from your site.

Erm, scratches head#
I'm an Illustrator & brand designer not a web designer.
The advise i gave you are just basics of what anyone that wants to delve into graphics design must know (web design included).
There are tons of websites you can check na.
friendosphere.com danielthegeek
Nairaland (dot) net dhtml81
I can't really remember the URL of other nairalanders websites sha.
Just go and take a web development course all together on codecademy, cousera, freecodecamp, udemy.. the list is endless.

AfricaNigerian:
Please check the changes on the site

It's better now but not good enough.
You can't force this on yourself, you'll have to learn it to understand it. even if you use 2 colors, you might not still get it right. I suggest you study every kind of website you can find, and try to redesign them as daniel stated above!
Go and do your home work

dozzynet:
Greetings boss, please how do I contact you?

I'll DM you

Now seriously, I want to help you.
You can do yourself a favor and learn to use one or 2 colors and in a more subtle way.
I doubt you have ever read about color theory or graphic design theory because basic knowledge of it should tell you that less is more.
dont use 2 contrasting colors, unless you want it to explode in your face, learn to use color compliments (of course youll understand this more if you read about color theory)

Learn to use white space well and alignment too. notice that those websites i showed you used mostly 1 color and white, thats what you should aim for.
Learn to use color shades a rough example is the image attached to this post, the backgrounds are just shades of the same colors of the pics i attached to where i quote Daniel above with the same text colors, notice how it becomes more readable and easy on the eyes?

Nice try though, keep it up, you'll get better at it. keep practicing.
If you're still finding trouble selecting colors, after reading up on color theory, head to color.adobe.com to choose colors and learn more.
Look at how other websites are designed for inspirations from them, I wont advice you get inspiration from nairaland.com tho

The next project you'll do, if you come up with a color blunder like this one, i will personally treat your fu-c-k up
cheers

hope this helps

Now lets go to your COLORFUL website

OP, I really understand that you are starting out, that's why i wont butcher you.
lets get straight to the point, call me Mr. Quack graphic Designer cause that's what i am now , the only thing i want to advice you on is your website colors.

These are snapshots from some websites most of us know quite well, AND THEIR MAJOR COLOR PALETTES.

On the facebook part, i intentionally didn't cut out the lady working out, bc i want to show you what i use facebook for if you would like to join the bandwagon

What do you notice in common with their color usage??

DanielTheGeek:
Your colors were contrasting each other....or shey na color blocking you do?

like this?
