Yeah, Chinese are that stupid. They can't make 240V appliances, and that's why they sell no electronics in UK, and Nigeria.

Even their solar panels are limited to 110V, which is why you only install them in America?

GloriousGbola:
man is lying through his teeth

he cant say he does not know about jinko solar panels or felicity - at least those ones are not chinko/chinesium

There's no way Krushner didn't hear all this coming so he can position his $2 billion Saudi fund. No way at all.

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.”

Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad. pic.twitter.com/1WYxcqam9O

Almost all batteries especially Lithium are Chinese made. Countries import grade A cells and assemble them with a different brand name such as Growatt, Ecoworthy. It's UK made but the cells are Chinese. They just get the casing ( from China too) ,add a BMS and voila ,a UK or America made battery.

The two top solar panel manufacturers are Longi and Jinko. Chinese companies.

Solar panels are not all 12V. They are made of cells anywhere from 36,48,60 or 72 upwards to the half cut 120 or 144. Each cell has 0.588V or so so you'll find some with 21-50V when open circuited. But they have nominal rating 12,24,36 or 48V .

The solar panel sitting in my house in Nigeria is 48V
GloriousGbola as usual "I too Sabi" always has something to say.

Pretty soon he will start saying a true solar panel is 12v because (insert a stupid reason here)

basilico:
That would be a 144 cell, half cut in reality it's 72 cells. They are more efficient, they will go up to 50V.
Ordinary 72 cells are nominally rated 36V but the voltage with just a meter between the positive and negative is around 42-44V with a Vpeak of 40-4V.

My mom sold my inverter and battery cells. The panels are not priced well so I asked her to not sell it. So I want give it to a friend.

I've had enough problems importing from China,as you mentioned sone have no manual,can't get a refund easily if at all you ever

I was using this nightmare 😂😂

basilico:
And that no other user anywhere else will buy - because first it's expensive and secondly need 240V to 110V step down
..

GloriousGbola:
you are actually right.

this is from the brochure for jinko 550w

we are project managing some solar deployments and this is from vendor material literature

budaatum:
Canada, along with parts of South America, Japan, Taiwan, and Saudi Arabia, primarily use a voltage range of 110V to 127V AC and would buy if cheap enough.

GloriousGbola:
Saudi is 220v tho.

this is the thing. for an industrialized china, it is not a big deal. a competent road side electrician can rewind the transformers of devices to run on 110 volts instead of 220 and vice versa. it is just small component swapping that can be done at the factory.

Why don't you try writing a death penalty law which achieves your desired outcome and doesn't capture innocent people.
Take into account mental health laws, etc. etc. etc.

You post as if someone who never thinks holistically about the things you advocate.

basilico:
For home use below 10KW.
That's a PWM controller. Very cheap.
You should use MPPT charge controllers.
Inverters integrated with a CC are all MPPT nowadays
They are upto 30% more efficient. They also just accept a range of input voltages say 100V upto 500V.. You just connect your panels and make sure the voltage from the panels doesn't exceed their rated input ....

IjeBos:
Yes, they did and I think it is clear again from what happened this week alone, their evaluation was wrong.

But, no one disagrees about that evaluation, a point that you keep bringing up that you you think helps your case.
Does it really? No, it doesn't.
The question is the lack of education, lack of critical thinking and hatred for minorities that led them to that evaluation when most metrics say Biden was a better President than Trump esp. on the Economy.
But you have to be educated and/or reason without bias to know those metricas and then to take those into account.

Your argument seems to be, because Trump was elected that means that the things people who elected him believed about him were true or something to that effect.
Very weird analysis.
One of the worries of the framers and part of the reason they created the Electoral college was fear that the populace would elect a demagogue.
That seems to have happened.

A factory with orders from Amazon , Home Depot and Walmart will simply ship the products elsewhere. It's that easy to you.

Commercial Times reports many companies have suspended shipments to the US following President Trump's tariff announcement. Some of the affected parts will include laptops, smartphones and networking gear.

Razer said it would pause selling goods in the US following President Trump's tariffs. Before that, Nintendo had to delay Switch 2 pre-orders for the same reason If you were hoping to substitute your Razer Blade with a similarly specced offering from another OEM, you might be out of luck. Commercial Times says a few other major players have decided to suspend shipments to the US.

They include big-name players like Lenovo, HP, Dell and A-Share (likely a bad machine translation for Asus). Shipments have been delayed for two weeks, and there's a chance they could be pushed back if the situation doesn't resolve itself in the coming weeks. Affected parts include laptops, smartphones and other network communication devices. However, the situation isn't all that gloomy. Some manufacturers are working out tariff sharing deals with customers, while others intend to ship as per schedule.

It isn't known if PC hardware components will be affected, but there's a good chance they will. High-end Nvidia graphics cards are hard enough to get as it is, and now, they'll become even rarer. Even mid-rangers will eventually run out of supply, resulting in higher prices for whatever remains. Either way, if you're a tech enthusiast in the US, the next few weeks might be rocky.

Why are Adam Lanza, Dylan Roof, James Holmes, Nicholas Cruz still alive? People who were caught in the act and who confessed to the act. Is it because they were wrongly accused?

descarado:
What if it's not the wrong person.
Like that child bride husband,what happens?
Put him in jail with tax payers money?

bemeruca:
I was not fully invested in solar. I just had a little bit of everything. Electricity was constant enough; the generator was for the night. The panel was for during the day in case we have transformer issues. At night, the Gen takes over and charges the batteries.

you are a nigerian

you know exactly how this will turn out.

from 2006 to 2015 a brand new corolla was 4m or so. crv like 7m or so. then in 2015 customs increased import duty and the price rose to 18 -24m or so. of course that was the beginning of the end of most corporate entities buying cars for staff.

customs has continued raising import duty, to the point where most people just say fk it and buy naija used cars.

it is the consumers that will suffer. anyone who has cash will be scrambling to buy things he /she wants because this may be the last time they will see them at those prices.

china will be fine.

LordReed:
Except you said the execution should be within 30 days. Those guys execution will take some ttime. There have been people wrongly accussed for example the guy wrongly accused of the Boston Bombing who committed suicide because of the accusation. Then it was latter found out he was wrongly accused.

The pause in execution allows for a more rigorous process to ensure an innocemt doesn’t get executed. Your haste to execute will do just that.

basilico:
There will be a glut of high end products in China, look for a laptop with UL rating

Most f the mass shooters were caught in the act or overpowered red handed, there were videos of them shooting their victims. They have done all these crimes about a decade ago, they are all still alive getting fed by tax payers while the families of their victims are there mourning

Adam Lanza shot Sandy Hook elementary school in 2012. Those kids should be finishing college now while the guy who cut their lives is still alive eating, going to gym on taxpayers dime

Lanza is dead but what difference does incarcerating one more person make?

raumdeuter:
Lanza for example is dead, Dylan roof is alive he murdered church goers 10yrs ago. Why should he be alive when he denied others life? If he had a child, he will be seeing his own child grow, those whose life he took wont be. He is alive he made sure others wont while getting fed from the purse of the people whose loved ones he murdered

it is the greed you talk about - and free market

greed is good. praise be to the shareholders! and of course elon is leading the way in his pursuit of h1-b indians who will settle for slavery

Purple lights, lol. My nephew wants lights too, so I've told him he has to pay the electric bill in the house and he agreed. Plan is to learn to build for my super rig in the future sometime, so we'd be selling this build. He convinced me lights are a selling point.

We struggled getting a motherboard. One with a usb-c port we ordered from Ebuyer could not be delivered, and we'd already got the other components, so we've gone with what is available quick. Will definitely take more time to get the components we want for our next build. It might be an AMD. As GloriousGbola said, 13 and 14 gen Intel is crappy.
