I have a business idea I would want share. Critics are welcomed. Just an idea, nothing I have tried.

It is about mobile temporary security remote surveillance for outdoors.
This could be used during events, construction sites, private residences etc.
Equipment needed :
1 About 6meters long poles (Enough quantities to cover all the surrounding areas to be monitored)
2 Cameras mounted on the poles
3 Completed individualized solar set up to power each pole, and the pole attached to a metal box with locks to serve as pedestal for each of poles and to house the solar and internet components
4 Wireless Internet connection
5 Monitor (laptop or tablet for remote active monitoring)
6 A vehicle for the personnel to stay in a remote location during active monitoring and to convey the equipment
7 A cellphone to call and alarm in case of incident
8 Get insurance for the company

Charge like #50k daily
Finally, keep my 10% royalty if things work out well for you.

Currently don't run the ACs on solar. Planned to but holding on until I complete my market research to guarantee that I made the best use of funds as at the time of purchase.

By the way there is an interesting fact for you.

Daikin is the inventor of variable refrigerant flow (VRF) air conditioners. Having failed to trademark "VRF", Daikin later remarketed the systems as "VRV" (variable refrigerant volume). Daikin is an innovator in the split system air conditioning market, having made the first split and multi-split air conditioners. Daikin co-developed the R-410A refrigerant with Carrier.

You are right , Daikin VRF units are mostly specified by consultants these days . But there is another brand of AC in the market as well called York. York product is from USA but people are afraid of buying it because of spare part during maintenance. They have their representative in Nigeria and I have been to their office in Victoria island Lagos

Big question.

Here is how I look at it.

iPhones are made in China and no one complains about the quality.

That said, I went for the Panasonic made in Malaysia and not China.

Somehow I felt that they are better, no empirical evidence in support though.

The final decision seems to be more emotional than rational.

Apart from the country of manufacture, you should also consider the features/pricing.

There is the economy model, there is the standard model and there is the premium model from both brands.

That said, Daikin is made in India, last I checked. At least those coming to MEA

Many people prefer made in Malaysia to China type.

God will help Nigeria, this is something that we can start producing Nigeria but my concern is that CAN NIGERIA PATRONIZE MADE IN NIGERIA PRODUCTS ? Apart from Cables and few other products people always scared of made in Nigeria product.

How many people are using INNOSON . Motors in Nigeria compare to Toyota, Honda, Benz, etc

40 x 40 tiles have 12pcs in a carton, meaning that 1 carton has 1.92 square metres.

60 x 60 tiles have 4pcs in a carton, meaning that 1 carton has 1.44 square metres.

While wall tiles of 40 x 25 have 15pcs in a carton, meaning that 1 carton has 1.50square metres.

From the foregoing, you can easily get the number of cartons required for the project by dividing the measured areas by the respective carton square metres.

Depends on the floor the blocks are being laid, generally the higher you go the more it cost.

If you are on the ground floor, depending on location it can range from 60-80 per block.

Smiles.

To buttress your point, see below.

Same reason why I prefer Panasonic fridges since those sold in Nigeria are made for the UAE.

toluxa1, the pictures below and the conversation therein should interest you.

Point to me is, if you go for Panasonic made in Malaysia or Daikin made in India, you should be good

I don't know BUT it does not seem so.

I feel better sticking to a pioneer than to someone who buys technology, rips it apart, studies it, and then creates a clone of the same.

Unless there is proof that the clone is better than the original.

Maybe this video and picture (link available in the file attached named source of the long picture) will help.
