they have started cheating people,they one I bought was delivered yesterday with out the pot, when I ask them, they said there website don't sell with pot as package
they have 2 types. One doesn't come with pot while the other does.

I think I prefer the home mama dayo cooker of 1,800w to this maxi of 2100w.

Even 1000w on the cooker is very fast, I haven't even gone past that since 2 days using it.
Help try out 400w for me pls.
We too boil rice for here grin.

lol.
You'll expend the same amount of energy eventually for same amount of rice

ok,thank you for your clearification but they should have said,they have stop selling with the pot as a package,than saying you didn't buy from there website
Mine came today without pot. The man told me the pot is only packaged only with Konga orders. That they sell the pot separately at store for N3500.

Still looking at both sha, will decide which is better after using them for a while

Yes obviously but to confirm such settings first is very important.Example, Why voraciously boil water at 1000w for 4mins when same can work for 9mins at 400w since both run on different inverter capacities.


Most homes will comfortably pump water with 0.5h (about 800w real life) say within 30mins to fill up 1000L but some want it fast at 15min with 1hp or higher for example. Both have different surge power plus other factors.The goal is the final result - water.

I haven't tried that, I tried 500w to warm spaghetti and it was okay.

1000watt will boil rice, but be careful and pay attention, the center part of the pot get all the heat, try stirring at few intervals

Then 500w should be able to boil water along with substances. Some us waste energy boiling rice and beans with plenty heat. These substances need slow cooking because the objective is to make them soft unlike cooking soup.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by oloet: 5:29pm On Apr 28
If the center of your pot gets all the heat then that's where your induction coil is located. The heat is supposed to go round the ring and not just the center

What's going on with solar panels prices lately. Jinko 630w is now 145k in market here in ibadan

The reason it will be difficult is that at the watt it goes off intermittently, since it's surface is not always hot there will be no heat to sustain it before it comes up again, at that level it's good for warming food

1.China Tax Policy:China cut export tax rebates on April 1, 2026, making panels more expensive to ship.

2. Rising Material Costs:The price of silver and silicon used in manufacturing has spiked globally.

3. Inventory Gap: "Cheap" stock from 2025 is sold out; new, pricier shipments are just hitting the Nigerian market.

4. Supply Chain Delay:Production pauses during the Chinese New Year (February) created a mid-year supply shortage.

I need panels between 400w to 600w totalling about 1600W-2000W

Fuoani has been out of stock for a while.

Please is there any plug in the house.

I also need a 2kva inverter hybrid inverter.
Please recommend a good product and source.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by EMuyi1(m): 11:19am On Apr 29
My senior colleagues in the house.

I bought Cworth 1.3kw 12v 100amp Lifepo4 Battery, it doesn't charge more than 13.2v and on the charge ctrller it's showing 101AH, and it drains so fast in less than 2hrs when full with a load of only 45w rechargeable fan.

What could be the problem.

Many thanks for the response I'd get.

looks like it is not getting a full charge, what are you using to charge it, solar or grid, if solar how many watts panels? List of your setup
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Pbaelish(m): 11:46am On Apr 29
They currently have 615watts panel.

you already answered your own question, so nobody needs to do any test. even 50W will cook rice eventually, thought it might take a very long time, whereas 2100W will take a shorter time. My setup is a 8.5kWp / 6kW/ 16kWh combo so i can use 2100W without stress and be done with cooking in minutes to under an hour. If your capacity is smaller, reduce the power and of course, wait longer for the food to get ready. It' just black and white.
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ask4bk(m): 12:37pm On Apr 29
Guys... Greetings.

What's the best 12v inverter you could recommend for me, that has low fan noise to carry just 150w?
I've one (sachet pure sine wave) but the noise wan finish me since I'm installing inside my bed room.
About 1.2kva go do.

Pls, i need recommendations from EXPERIENCE.

Induction cooker here and there. Oppression yi por
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by JoeSef0(m): 2:33pm On Apr 29
If the room has ventilation, you can put connect a switch to the fan so you can manually turn it on and off.
That was what a someone did to one famicare 1kw Inverter. No issues or noise since then

A friend confirmed this today.
Good cooking begins from 800w.
400 to 600w for warming as it cuts off/on.
Thanks

Change the DC fan inside the inverter to brushless fan. That settles the noise issue

Thanks, but isn't there inverters that come with that also? Not ready for all that work of changing fans.

Any inverter brand in mind?

he’s just trying to help you cut cost of getting a new one..any inverter is okay,,Felicity,luminous,cworth,itel…..The capacity and voltage depends on your loads and system,,
