And that was even recent... I was not in Nigeria for that... but I can go back to Awo vs Akintola time... UPGA and DEMO!
Old folks here will surely remember that... the fight is not with gun but with JUJU o. But that was then.
We are all in Churches and Mosques now... and have abandoned our Cultures... Not all JUJU are bad anyway..
Thanks for that very good narrative Lastpage... you are good at writing than I will ever be.. that delayed my Ph.D for many years.

Talking juju when you are fasting....Takulah!
Talking about fasting, do people notice drop in productivity with workmen who are fasting? Or is it the opposite?

Yea I was looking at thier camera too. You can communicate to family members with it as well. Quality is great too. And the price isn't bad. Wouldn't even need to engage in outsiders to set it up, for indoors at least. Ill need to do a cost comparison for the CCTV that is being utilized in nigeria. But tbh I may not even have the need for it if I build in the estate that I want.

I'm not at the stage of building yet. I'm still saving up money. But I'm making a list/document of all the must haves, and wants that I want included in my house. This group has been very helpful. Your post about the whole house fan was very very informative. Thank you so much.

Whenever you set it up, please post. I'm sure to learn so much from your setup. I'm sure you'll install yours before I start my build.

EgunMogaji:
You're welcome.

I really like supporting companies like this that puts out innovative product. You can sometimes find deals on Groupon, Amazon or eBay but might be previous generation products.

Depending on how the bedrooms are clustered you might get away with a unit in a central area in the adjoining hallways, but for sure there needs to be one in or very near the kitchen.

The integration of the camera is also quite beneficial, the thermostat may not work in Nigeria.

For CCTV I've been collecting GoPros and that's what I intend to use.

The clarity is fantastic.

I've got friends with 24/7 electricity in Nigeria.

The problem is affordability.

Solar can give you 24/7 electricity.

no doubt.

Solars are backed up with batteries and likely to disappoint. Imagine staying in the panic room and your batteries knock off. Direct electricity is more better if we can have stable electricity in Nigeria.

I work in a hospital with zero fail situations where life is at stake.

While I don't share your lack of faith in commercial grade electronics, I will however tell you that my panic room is not designed to be a long term habitat.

It's mainly for me to retreat in there temporarily, initialize and then come out, tactically, to engage and suppress perpetrators.

There are also many homes around the world in countries with 24/7 electricity but has chosen to stay off the grid.

Even we need it in all construction sites but I don't know how to explain it.

We will definitely get there one day.

I'm sure this is not the first Naija production factory pics or vid you've seeing.

5 types of batteries in circulation now, one is sold for 98k from prag.

This product/company is really unique. They offer discounts with our hydro companies in Ontario if we purchase thier thermostats. The included technoloy of communicating with the smoke detector via an app is quite innovative.

But I really don't want to spend up to $1000 on smoke detectors for my house. Maybe I can get away with buying a 2-3 and see how it goes. It's a great investment nonetheless.

Thanks for sharing

how come these are more expensive? waht else do they add to basic smoke alarms?

Tactical retreat lol I like that word

A lot. You should read their site to get the whole deal.

It's well worth it.

A connected network of detectors (fire and co2) is as good as a gods gift to safety nazis like me.

hmm Im sure i can get a fire, Co2 and smoke detectors cheaper, but I will have a look at what makes them more xpenssive

erico2k2:

Oh yes you can get regular detectors for $10

I think it's the technology aspect. The extra feature of app communications, the blinking light and all that. Not necessitate needed but quite modern. Also the fact that it's is both a smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector. Because it is a dual detector is more expensive. All alarms that do both always cost more.

I've been thinking about this. And although I think the app communication is great, it's not neccesairly required. I might just go with another dual smoke/carbon monoxide detector that has great ratings as well. But will allow me to buy the recommended amount of alarms for my house at a cheaper cost.

there are lots of smoke detector here that uses batteries... disadvantage is that if you forgot to change the batteries over time, it can damage the device...

i have seen nest that oga egun posted look nice to me and very simple too .

here for multi dwelling apartment we are used to either addressable or conventional wired type.

but for a bungalow or a duplex stand alone wireless detector will do just fine...

i bought one on ebay sometimes ago about 300usd.. its has an app as well, doesnt really work well after installation.


great to have a device with an app... that you will be able to monitor your home at ago. just like having a cctv installed with remote view.

whole house automation is really taking shape nicely now.. like of CONTROL 4, where you can control everything in your house via an APP.

But better soup na money kill am

msogunro:
Wow! There is a a money transfer agency in Maryland that I use. The current rate is #340 and a fee of $8.

You can text RATE to this number and you will recieve a reply with their current rate during business hours - 2027189279.

Call them and see if they have branches in your area.

Foiled again

They only cater to Maryland folks.

So I have two separate structures on my property including a garage which will have petrol, oil and other flammable things.

So with this Nest, I can be alerted the minute smoke is detected and wherever I am. Even if I'm in the us.

Yeah this one does a self check and let's you know when the battery needs replacing. Used long life battery too.
