Bros who is to blame? Let the leader of a sovereign country lead by example and watch it have effect of the citizenry .... It's not rocket science.
The only blame to the citizenry (which is significant) would be for electing such leadership

A righteous father still has black sheep in the family that soil the family name, Even the wives and children of prophets sent by God in the Scriptures were worse in some cases(not our village-title prophet-preneurs)
Even with BMS, cells fail !
So I laugh when people make such claims as you just did, everyone should do his part, it is the people that become leaders, the leader is just one person, the led are the majority.

I get your point.you mention 12v 200ah battery and each alone cost 150k naira both cost 300k naira..you see why am confused.

Which of this inverter you think is better and will preserve battery life.

Can you kindly list all what i might need so i can buy them on jumia.
Thanks


Two of them are ok makes. Buy whichever one you like. But if I'm buying, I may actually buy the Microtek based on the price and it been a higher capacity.

Bought from MANUEL SOLAR ENERGY ENTERPRISES, and installed yesterday by one of my experienced engineer... Big thanks to Mr Patrick for the patronage, God bless you sir!


That’s 2 pcs of 200AH, 24v Felicity lithium battery and a 5.5kva, 24v Famicare inverter..

Go Solar...Let the sun pay your bills!!!

I know Justcallmenuel has once before guaranteed that this Felicity lithium is as declared capacity, and I've had a few purchases from him satisfactorily, I nevertheless wish a third party amongst us here with capacity tester can verify the claim of felicity in this their lithium offering.

Though felicity has fairly good reputation in other products, but this is a fresh foray into lithium and with the inconsistencies that occassionaly trail solar products even with felicity in some instance, I won't be surprised if Nigerians have ventured into declaring false capacity on generic lithium batteries but slapping felicity tab on it.

There will always be a Judas but the ministry of Jesus still progressed because the head (Jesus) was resolute and he also revealed the Judas, a leader should be able to identify the Judas and evidently act so it serves as example to others.

Yes everyone should do it's part which is what is happening right now but with the right leadership everyone will confidently do their part to the positive development of a collective goal. Yes a leader is just one person, but that is one person that everyone else looks unto and there goes the difference!

To the BMS yes you are right and as a leader (that made the choice of installing a BMS which has given you information of a bad cell), what should you do? Leave the bad cell to continue to disrupt your goal rather you lead by example by introducing a cell at same level with others so you can achieve optimal capacity!

Good day , please I would like to have an estimate of how much an installer will charge to add solar panels to an already existing inverter system, the inverter system comprises the following
3.5kva felicity inverter
2 FLA 220ah batteries

I have bought 4 280 watts mono panels, and a 60 amp mppt CC,
I am yet to buy the mount,cables and breakers because I Would prefer the installer buys or advices which to buy ,

Nope.

Lead acid batteries require more stringent charging conditions that need to be met on daily basis, like on a regular dose. LFP can tolerate missed doses of the required conditions for a few days and still be forgiving.

12v LFP for instance require a CC-CV of 14.4v. Lead batteries on the other hand require charging voltages that range between 13.8v to 14.2v depending on the equalisation or float voltages.

The best you can do to use the two however is if you use a changeover switch that switches the charging panel voltages from one to the other once charging is full.

If the switch over is to be in-between your CC and battery, then you may get by using a CC that will not burn out with battery terminal disconnection under ongoing solar input. On the other hand, you can have two CCs if you can afford it - one is connected to the LFP and the other to the lead battery pack. So you only switch solar inputs from one CC to the other.

Okay. Do you have the floodlight ones? I mean the floodlight solar security lights? Usually the charging panels and the floodlights are seperate but with a connecting cord.

Preferably without PIR sensor, so that there is constant illumination intensity all through the night.

Las las na d same people kill Jesus. Cut his ministry short. Took a criminal over him. Sent him to the cross

The problem of Nigeria is certainly not leadership we have been hearing that since 1960 nothing has changed

Let every body be reasonable and responsible and lets see if we will not live much better

One thing about a Nigerian is dat, he or she will never take responsibility for their own actions, they is always someone to blame for their short comings

If you think this is about blame game then I can tell you that is not my goal...... apart from taking responsibility by voting in good leaders(assuming it's easy to identify one at the ballot), trying to make a change in this country from bottom to top is unrealistic and impractical. Not with the level of poverty/illetracy that exists among millions.

However I know it will be very much easier to make a change from top to bottom and that is where leadership is important. If we've been complaining about leadership since 1960, it doesn't mean that it is no longer valid, it simply means that we've not yet gotten a good leader since then. Just go and read a little about how Singapore made so much progress or look at what made Dubai what it is today, it's not the millions of people...... It's rather the decision of a leader to get the millions of people to move their country in a progressive direction.

As to Jesus ministry, if his ministry died(or was cut short) we both won't be talking about Christ today.

I kept quiet because I didn't want to get into what looks like a political argument on a solar forum. The problem with Nigeria is that everyone expects everyone else to change while we continue to do our own thing. A bribe-guzzling policeman want a good leader. The 419 guys complain about Buhari or Jonathan or whoever is in power. The student who cheats in his school exams joins protest against a minister who does not have NYSC discharge certificate. The businessmen who started selling N450 glove for N5000 because of corona is complaining about Gbajabiamila buying G-Wagon for his wife. The idiotic pot-bellied smelling lecturer sleeping with female students young enough to be his grand daughters in order to pass them will call himself a socialist and go on strike because of IPPIS.

Our leaders are aggregates of us. They will never be better than the average of us. Even if we get a conscientious leader, the crooks who will surround him and work with him will destroy his efforts. Leadership is important, but with a followership that is not prepared to play its part, we are going nowhere. It is like having a good driver but with a bus full of incorrigible passengers who are distracting him, taunting him, banging things in the car and even wrestling the steering and the gear with him. The bus will eventually end up in the bush.

We all need to play our parts. Until we do so, we will keep complaining about how bad the country is. As we lay our bed, so shall we lie on it.

I think one thing we need to look at is the fact that humans are intrinsically or naturally wicked. That's not to say that 100% of us all are. But rules when implemented straightens out the wicked citizens while protecting the good citizens, eventually aiming towards an egalitarian society.

Our outlook to life is a combination of innate leanings and environmental moulding. A child who is born to parents that value good name above acquiring illegal riches will train their wards along that line. By the time the child gets into the larger society, he is no longer under the direct tutelage of the parents and the values that he has been taught is what is expected to guide his choices going forward. Now that is where the type of values in the society comes in. If the society he finds himself is one with negative value systems, his previous training will face much challenge and depending on his resilience, he may or may not buckle under societal pressure. That is why you find Nigerians doing fine overseas and even our evil politicians get to foreign nations and behave like sane humans observing social etiquette like joining queues but the get back to Nigeria and start oppressing citizena, cutting queues and balding sirens all over like the mad men they are. In Nigeria, merit is looked down upon and a sincere, honest and upright individual is seen as a weakling and a mumu. There's no way a society can grow from such warped mindset.

The bucks eventually fall on the leaders. Reformation is better achieved from up down. If a leader leads by example, the followership will likely follow suit. If laws are made and implemented against bad deeds, even the most difficult citizen with a twisted outlook to life will face a force majeure of having to comply with acting good or he risks being taken out of circulation (imprisoned). During OBJ's tenure, he made a statement of not exempting his own kith (Afolabi) from punishment for wrongdoing, Nigerians got the message. Then he instructed the police to "shoot on sight" any OPC member that tries to endanger the peace in South West. If he didn't do that then, the outfit would have gone the way of BH instead of the noble position they occupy today. What we have nowadays is the presidency looking away from the obvious truth about farmers-herders clash, protecting one against the other. OBJ slammed his gavel on the then police chief and every other state police commissioners and by extension the street cops begun acting right. But the moment he left, the rot has again taken root with the police chiefs giving a daily earning target to their boys in check points because their station needs to buy a large screen TV for the Abuja police chief or donate to the wedding of the son of the IGP.

If the leaders get it right, the followership will naturally fall into line. If the leaders stop seeing their office as a means to enrich themselves at the expense of the masses, the civil servant will not see reason to acquire ill-gotten wealth in order to live above board. If government make anti-trust rules against hoarding, people will not sell 50 naira gloves for 5000 naira. But in order not to be challenged/questioned by the masses, the government/leaders themselves must first be seen to live by examples. That is Gbajabiamila not buying g-wagon when he could have done well with something more reasonable, the lawmakers not insisting on Japanese made Toyota when they could have gone for Innoson vehicles, the president upgrading and equiping Nigerian hospitals rather than flying out at a common headache. The list is endless.

Failed leadership originally brings terrible followership. Then the resultant rotten society breeds more sickos that eventually find their way into leadership and the gorge gets deeper. Only a purposeful and sane leadership can stop the rot in its track and reverse the trend.

Currently in the news is the EFCC official that turned down 100 million naira bribe from some Chinese dudes. You will be sick from the comments of Nigerians. He was called names for rejecting the money saying he has turned down a lifetime opportunity.

He was "playing his part", but I dare to tell you that doing that in Nigeria as it is currently structured, he is simply throwing blows to empty space. This is because a Nigerian politician in his shoes offered such bribe will collect the money and nothing will happen. That is why some Nigerians find justification in calling him mumu for rejecting the bribe money.

Nigerian president is one of the most powerful in the world. If surrounded by crooks, all he has to do us drop the useless baggage and recruit people with like minds, people with the same vision as his to work with him and drive the country forward.

A foolish leader is one who sabotages his own vision by pandering up to saboteurs, but a wise one chooses his company wisely and leads on to great achievement.

The above is why Nigeria may never change in years to come. I used to say the above in the past but not anymore, not with the reality of poverty and illiteracy that exist in this country. A major change through the masses will be almost impossible in this country as there are just too many interests, go and look to various protests, it's either they are funded by opposition parties or ruling party.

A policeman that stops collecting bride hence stops delivering to Oga at the top will only loose his job, or promotion if not his life, but if Oga at the top show leadership by celebrating those that do not collect bribes and prosecute those that does without favouritism, you will see how people will seat up. The sex for marks lecturer will lockup their zip if the VC showed leadership by truly applying zero tolerance for such act.

I maintain that a bottom up approach to change things in this country will not be effective, only a top down will, and those who keep saying the change begins with you and I (who do not have the power to make policies) are just motivational speakers at best, otherwise that change would have happened already.

In an attempt to make this solar related, Imagine if things were organised in naija, solar procurement will have made more sense, for instance my unused generation would have been fed back into the grid thereby making money. grin

Sex for grade is a terrible phenomena in our higher education system... But the resistance on IPPIS is premised on a consistent and superior argument by ASUU.. Moreover, not all lecturers are members. Using the IPPIS imbroglio to drive home your point is a wrong analogy

Thank you comrades...

I'm on IPPIS. I used to be on GIFMIS and I believe IPPIS is better. I failed to understand why any group of workers will insist on being paid in a certain way. The important thing is to be paid regularly, completely and as when due. The choice of IPPIS or GIFMIS is irrelevant to me. Infact, IPPIS has saved many federal establishments from salary wahala. No more "money has not come from Abuja", no more "we need to bribe someone to release our money" and no more fixing workers emoluments in banks to earn interest. Many of ASUU's arguments are completely baseless and sometimes outright lies.
