HealthRe: Help!!! I Am A 31-Year-Old Struggling With Tramadol Addiction!! by samnaija: 4:23am On Jan 30, 2025
papyjaypaul:
@ topic before I got distracted with cousin and bro, the truth about addiction, any addiction is that if we want to stop something, only us have the power to do so. That willpower comes from within and no one else can boost us. It may hurt loved ones but no one is as hurt as yourself and as they say, you can't give what you don't have. If you don't love YOURSELF, how do you love othershuh

Take care of yourself first. You know when to stop, it's the trigger you are waiting for. Sometimes, it takes the loss of someone for people to wake up but think about it, how do you become sober because someone else died? Doesn't that make you feel guilty even when you stop the addiction? Stand up for yourself in this world, if the rest of the world is not good, try to be that good person and if the world don't care, take care of yourself first.
You got schooled, cousin bro...

OKOATA:
People pray in Nigeria because they lack all the social amenities and welfarism that makes life better that's why they seek solace from churches. Many people that go to church here regularly don't go to churches abroad because why should you? Good job, steady power supply, nonexistence of witches and wizards So what's then the need to pray violent prayers or visit churches regularly then?

Car TalkRe: My Experience Hunting For A Nigerian Used Car With A Budget Of 4.5M by samnaija: 4:12pm On Jan 10, 2025
Brilliant007:
I step out of Lagos searching for a reliable camry 2004. I saw many dealers on Jiji and nairaland. I visited each of them with my reliable mechanic.
After checking several cars, we discovered that none of the Nigerian used cars is worth buying .
They always have one problem or the other. The most common is bad engines.

Many dealers even promised to give my mechanic 100k behind my back to convince me to buy this melon car.

It's crazy that with 4.5 million, all you can get is a bad car.
We return home disappointed.

On getting home. I went back to check my own car that I have been driving for 5 years. My engine, gear, and ac are still in perfect condition and I wonder if those putting their car on sale are those with major problem.

Nigeria dealers have ruined the used car market.
Is this a problem with toyota or because the car is a lower year.

I didn't consider other brands. Maybe it would have been a different situation.

At the moment, we are considering buying Tokunbo direct or on installment payment in order to evade this madness in the Nigerian used car Market
I can link you up with that car , direct from the owner....

For your info, those environmental laws by Lagos state is Internationally agree upon by treaty. So, Lagos is just slow to enforce them.

You mentioned go to other countries and abide by their laws. Pls tell me the other countries you mentioned dont they provide basic water for the companies and people in general .

Better, because I don't know how foolish a country can be to have even thought of that in the first place. Imagine, you did Sim registration, yet when your Sim card gets missing, they will still be demanding heaven and earth to retrieve it as if they don't have your finger prints, NIN and every other needed stuffs in their database earlier. They can even ask you for the length of your last conversation and recharge card you loaded last. Are all these not childish when you already have all my data and passport photograph during Sim card registration?
Thats not true, once your nin is attached your sim gets replaced immediately. It is if you had visited a road side vendor to buy the sim intially or to attach nin with street vendor,then you will have such issues.

Attached is the charge controller information, I think it can take 150v or what do you think ?

Okay, thank you sam.
You are Even very good to go, since you have 6 panels, do the 3 series.

Yes, I'm using Felicity mppt controller (100ah)
It's 2 in series
I'm using Jinko panel and they aren't shaded
Okay, check your charge controller if it can take a pv array voltage of 150v.
If so rearrange panels to 3 in series and parallel.... Likely the faulty,

Hi everyone,
Please I have a challenge with my inverter set up and would like to hear other opinions or what might be wrong here.

I currently have a 5kva inverter (48v) with four 220ah tubular battery which work absolutely fine but recently I added 6 panels of 555w and expecting that it would be able to charge the battery and use it during sun peak period but that wasn't the case. Could it be that the panels aren't enough or the connection is faulty.
Are you using an mppt charge controller (name),
what panel arrangement was done 2 in series or 3 in series.
What brand of solar panels are you using,
are your panels being shaded.
Provide more info

Drgreatone:
He is using 3 580w panels on a 12v system. If the sun is blazing, what makes u think he wont be getting over 100amps into his battery as his CC can not be set to give a particular charge current unlike an hybrid inverter
First what discharge will his battery undergo to charge 100amps instaneous charge. I would love to see you prove it for a 12v system.

It will not reach 100amps. The charge controller will automatically give accordingly to what the battery needs.

Then you made mention that it is only hybrid that set a particular charge that is wrong.
My fangpuson 80amps charge controller, with so many non hybrid can be modlated or set to whatever charge or current you want. But none the less, mine is set at 80amps and fully loaded with panels, you will not get the complete 80amps

@Dam5reey1 @Drgreatone and others with experience of standalone charge controller set up.
Please what do you think of the above?
First of all , where Will the 120amps current come from?. Is it from the 3 panels used for the system, definitely not. It cant generate 120amps.
And don't mind individuals scaring you if you have a good charge controller, whatever amps in your battery,you consume is exactly what the charge controllert will give you back. It is a demand and supply curve

Dont reduce the charge of Controller, it should be at the max, you cant generate the 120amps with 3 panels, but it will supply exactly what your battery needs.

The bolded claims are false sir,

They use grid tied compatible systems which sells back your excess energy back into the grid, Stand alone system does not feed back into the grid.

It is their Inverter that makes this possible contrary to your claim that their inverter does almost nothing. The Inverter converts that excess solar energy to Alternating Current that can be fed back into the grid.

The rotational utility meters does not have bi-directional energy flow capabilities, They have meters that allows energy to flow in both directions in which when you are consuming energy, your account depletes, when you are feeding back energy, your account gets credited, In some countries, you can actually get paid into your bank account from your Grid Energy Feeding,
Since the cost of energy i very expensive in many countries, many people aim to take advantage of these systems and contracts to make money from energy instead of spending on energy.
So after the account is settled, if you have excess, you get paid. All this happens during contract agreements
So what is false in what i wrote, you virtually repeatted what i wrote.

Baseless take. Na you wan spoil am? Pretty much every solar setup I've seen abroad uses a hybrid inverter, and not a transformer-based one. How come those inverters aren't dying every day.

Na so dem say carburetor better pass injectors back in the day.
Abroad uses hybrid inverter and also use standalone.

Even why compare abroad with us, their heavier load is connected to grid .

They connect their system with the grid, if their system is making or generating excess power it turns their utility meter backwards hence they are suppling to the grid .

When their system is under performing the grid or utility is used. So please why compare we in Nigeria to them. Their inverter virtually does nothing.
But in Nigeria here without grid, same inverter water heater, pumping machine and ac.

Alhamdulillah!
This is one of the reasons Islam is the right religion if followed perfectly!

After a Muslim's death, the way his properties would be shared is already legislated. Those who deserve to get a share has been clearly stated with conditions!

And this is from the Qur'an! All Muslims should emphasize that their estate be shared with the Shari'ah after death!
...............................................................................
Abiola didn't use the Islamic Shari'ah to share his estate. He even had more wives than Islam permitted. So I wonder what's wrong with Christians using Abiola as their only case study!
So if christians are using abiola as a case study, why are you using wigwe as a case study for christians. Please be informed, writing of a will, has nothing to do with religion.

To be honest, i don't really know much about the water recycling, but if i may ask wont it involve pumping from one point to another then back again. This will require energy and pump.

I got it for a friend, so i only check up on the system on weekends. But what i could sample for now it carries one pump at a time.
2 surface pump ( 1hp).
1 submersible pump (1.5hp).

The first cycle starts in the morning 10 am.
Second pump cycle starts at 3 pm.
All 3 tanks are filled twice a day. For fish farming.

I pump water like 3 times a year. Have about 5 big tanks. Some are 5,000 litres. All for personal use. I know I could upgrade capacity of pumping machine BUT that would proportionally increase load.
Still have to use hotPlate during the day on a separate setUp. Make I get wetin I fit maintain abeg. No be say when e reach to spend money, I go begin do like person him rent go soon due
Its for a fish farm, i helped a friend of mine design and procured it for him. So far everything good, but we have not reached that sweet spot yet. We need more panels. Just 5 450 watts panel for now , all in series.
