If the truck wasn’t dia, I wouldn’t have hit anything cos it was a straight road. Highway
If your eyes were on the road, you could have easily avoided the truck like you were overtaking a slow moving truck. You were on top speed and you weren't watching the road at the time. Thank God for your life man.

Congratulations. Are you staying there permanently? Coz I'm thinking of moving to another country in Africa just that the job I presently do in Nigeria pay very well. But this issue of insecurity, electricity etc is making me go nuts. I'm tired of buying fuel everyday to power my house. Are they jobs there? What do you think about setting up a business there?

You could opt for alternative power solution, so you're not overly dependent on generator in absence of power from the grid.

Y'all just open your mouth waaaaaaa.... Visit other discos in Nigeria and compare them with Ikeja disco, you'll thank God for being under their network.

There's a due process for the prepaid meter application, we got 10 free meters in my house without paying a dime. Just apply normally on the application link and you'll be metered within 3months.

This rubbish you spewed no be am at all.

Bro he's not far from the truth. I had the same problem with ikedc. I applied for meter, cleared all the outstanding that was less than 100k. It took them 2 months plus to bring the meter & my bill had accumulated to over a 100k under the stipulated period of waiting. I'm paying the 60-40 arrangement now.

Both prepaid and postpaid customers can use the App. All you need to have is your account number for your metre. Use signature for more details about the app.
I tried using my prepaid meter No, but the app didn't recognize it. It only recognized the old account number prior to when I got my meter, & there's no info on that anymore since I no longer recharge on it

Have been using the App for quite sometime now. It's fast and easy to use. I can pay and manage my account all on my phone without having to visit their office.

I recommend it.
Is it for postpaid account or prepaid meter accounts?

For more than 1 month ive not used PHCN because they give me bill of over 40k/monthly for 1 flat and boys quater to share. Now our pending bill as reached over 700k within 1year because we pay only 11k monthly out of it.

They gave us prepared in June and want to move the 700k to it so we stopped using PHCN and ive been using my gen ever since.

Looking for a solar solution now.

Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ranktzy(m): 6:10pm On Apr 12, 2021
NiyiOmoIyunade:
I would recommend 48v over 96v for these reasons.

1) Available technology and support systems - Most high end inverters and charge controllers are configured for 48v - the ones that can do the range from 12v to 48v are usually at their peak performance at 48v.

2) Ease of management - If you had 8 12v batteries to play with and had them setup as 96v, the failure of just one battery out of 8 would bring your system performance down very noticeably - if however you had gone with a 48v system with two 48v strings in parallel, you could afford to have one and even up to four batteries fail and still have a useable system and buy enough time to attempt battery recovery or save up for their replacement.

3) Safety - As you play with DC voltages above 60v, it is possible to sustain a fatal or at the very least painful electrical shock - so you need to know what you are doing at voltages like 96v and above.

Notwithstanding there are certainly benefits e.g savings in inverter copper/transformer windings, ability to use thinner and therefore cheaper DC cables [(given thesame power output, higher voltage means lesser current/amps)] in a 96v system vs 48v amongst other benefits but by and large I would advice you go for 48v except your circumstances clearly indicate otherwise.

Hello to you sir, I see you've used Trojan flooded cell batteries & managed them well. I have an uncle who uses 4 12v 200Ah Trojan batteries, he recently complained the inverter goes off when the sun sets for the day, so I went to his house and found out the batteries where no longer storing charge cause the moment it's loaded, the voltage drops instantly. I checked the config of the inverter, it was set on flooded, but it has no equalization feature. Do you think the batteries can be salvaged if subject to equalization, & what external device can I use to accomplish this. Thank you!
Phones / Re: USSD: MTN Snubs Banks, Links 77 Million Subscribers To FINTECH Platforms by ranktzy(m): 12:06pm On Apr 04, 2021
spacechuks:
Those of you that are saying mtn will win

It will shock you mtn provides network for most of the banks which definitely they will lose

Recharging via fintech and other platforms, how do you introduce the cash into the platforms, you will either use your bank debit cards or pay cash, I dont get it,

Fintech dont have CBN licence to run accounts,

Both parties need each other to strive and make profits, they should settle the issue amicably

I stopped recharging using my bank app for over a year cause of the SMS charges I get. I recharge using other platforms that offer data & airtime recharge. I just top up my wallet using either bank transfer or payment gateway & I can get airtime at a lower rate unlike the bank app that sells at the exact value.

Nairaland / General / Making Payment For Correction Even When I Haven't Registered For NIN by ranktzy(m): 9:03am On Jan 18, 2021
Please who knows who I can reach out to. I tried doing this NIN registration stuff, my BVN data was called up & it was the wrong DoB that appeared, which I had since corrected in the bank. I was told to pay 15k to change the DoB when I haven't even done the registration, thereafter I would go to their head office to follow up on the process with all the crowd. I've seen stories of people who have registered for NIN paying to correct their data, but I've not even started the process yet, so it would probably be more difficult to get someone to hear me out in their office.
My challenge is this is tied to my Driver's license renewal ☹️

Hi. I have a slightly different issue. When I did my bvn registration I made a mistake with my DoB, but I corrected it much later. When I went to do nin registration, it pulled up the old DoB I had corrected on my BVN. I couldn't do the Nin registration & I was told I have to pay for it to be changed even when I'm not registered on their database yet. I'd appreciate if you can send me a link to a contact in Alausa.

Earthstorms:
There is nothing to celebrate here if we look critically at the issues at stake.

This is a federal project, meaning it has the backing of the federal government. Something that needs to be pointed out is that Buhari has not prioritised the building of gas fired power plants in the past 5 years that he has been president.

Gas power plants are what we have that can cheaply provide enough power at affordable costs to meet the energy needs of the country.

Can the people in this community now set up welding workshops or hair dressing saloons based on the electricity they now have? What is the essence of a project that can not spur much needed development and economic activities?

These offgrid solar minigrids are waste of resources.

The battery systems in the picture are based on lead acid batteries, in less than 3 years time those batteries will need to be replaced and by then no one will be interested in providing the funds for the replacement and the people will be back in darkness.

Also the number of solar panels in the picture is inadequate to charge a 100kw system. So the system can not provide 100kw continuously.

The lead acid batteries will be damaged if that system is run beyond 25kw continuously from what I can see in the picture. I will give that system 1 year to pack up due to insufficient float charging of the batteries. The solar panels numbers need to be increased.

The question is why is Buhari not keen on building big gas powered electricity generation plants.

Obasanjo started many power plants under the NIPP scheme, Jonathan completed many of them, the northerners were complaining that the NIPP power plants were in the south where the gas supply is and the projects should be stopped. Buhari has simply stopped further development of the NIPP projects just like the northerners were asking for, why are we cutting out noses to spite our faces?
The project will be sustainable if they're productive energy users who will use power during the day, while the battery bank takes care of load usage at night. The solar pv capacity is 100kw, so it can handle load of up to 30kw during the day conveniently. In these communities, they're encouraged to use more power during the day. There are lots of similar projects that are serving the communities for the past 3 years and counting

This is not d time for hike in any product. Government failed to address d issue of distribution of electricity in Nigeria. The output is poor and unavailable in some areas.
Moreover, power should not only be regionalized but The Monopoly of region distributors have to be broken so that customers can switch in between different distributors. If BEDC is not functioning,I can switch to IKEDC. Regional competition will enhance good and customer friendly services.
Sadly this can't happen. Electricity isn't distributed wirelessly like your telco network.

My PC is Acer aspire e1-570 my dedicated video memory is 32mb, ram 8gb, HDD 300+GB windows 10 shared memory is 2gb...

I play pes 2017 mod 2020 smooth on medium graphics

I play GTA IV on low settings a lil bit laggy on some places

Cod modern warfare 1 high graphics no lag
Part 2 medium graphics no lag same a part 3

Need for speed the run lowest graphics laggy

FIFA 14 smooth but used NSP mod better just a bit laggy but the tattoo pack mod it's laggy

All my best games which are online base building and RTS war games eg age of empires etc mehn that's why I need a new laptop they are all laggy like hell

So your laptop above with 128mb video memory can do better with some games it's not that bad but best gaming performance u need 500mb video memory
