SE still leads. Meanwhile the first TV station - WTN was first founded by Chief Obafemi Awolowo in 1950s.

The statistics is useless. Statisense is trying to craft an image of authenticity but a mere look at it will show you it's a criminal enterprise simply pulling stats out of their ass.

Stats without source. Seun, Mynd44, we shouldn't be helping Statisense project this image they are trying to project. There is no link to a research. Just random figures out of the figment of their imagination.

ariesbull:
Rule of Thumb for engagement....

Avoid debating data from reports you haven't read or understood...

Make attempts to understand the methodology that led to the stats...

When still in doubt, reserve opinion, make alternative findings...

Still in doubt, ask questions without insinuations...

***We engage clarifications/questions not abuse!

Now I see what's up. I'm actually trying to reason with a worker in Statisense lol.

Reputable without adhering to the standards that ought to make them reputable? Why call them reputable if they don't any tool to make sense of their 'findings'?

SeeWahala:
Oga, go to Google, type statisense, their website will come up along with all the data, links and sources you desire to see . . . What is hard there?

Why exactly are you afraid of following the instructions I penned down above to find your 'holy grail' of an answer?

As I said earlier . . . I already know the type and color of your problem with their report don't sweat it

But you can crawl to a corner (any corner really) and proceed to cry there away from interested and prying eyes like ours

Lol. This shows you haven't even visited their site to begin with. A site where they just make a claim, draw a bar chart and put a sentence. No source, no abstract of the research, no journal pointing to any data, findings etc. Nothing. Just a claim on a bar chart and a sentence. Why should any serious person take their claim as true?

SeeWahala:
Oga, you saw a report made by statisense, a purely neutral and professional institution in charge of statistical data in nigeria and you decided to challenge/question their methods purely because the data contained in their report didn't sit well with you

I understand exactly what you're all about it's crystal clear 👌

A professional and neutral institution but can't add the source of their data. Even the world bank add sources to their data but I should accept Statisense without one.

ariesbull:
ask them...Una too argue


Bro go to their Facebook or twitter page and say all these things

But you are helping them amplify it. Isn't this the same thing as sharing fake news? Why would a rational person share fake news?

SeeWahala:
Apt

There's a reason my enemies always scream "SeeWahala!" and scamper for safety whenever they sight me coming from afar

Be like my enemies sometimes they exhibit uncanny intelligence

You don't understand. I hope you do someday.

SeeWahala:
it's on the basis of being averse to the truth that one decides to stand firmly on shakey untruths

Is the statistics paining you? Is it too hard to chew and too big to swallow?

Don't worry, Agbad0rians have the same digestive problems you do see the tried, tested and proven remedy below

Smh. What a pity! Your mind is a storm.

SeeWahala:
Because you cannot CHOP THE STATISTICS abi?

Wayward agbad0rian like you

If you understand the point he's trying to make you will think differently.

On the basis of what should this information be accepted as truth?

ariesbull:
you want to ask them about the methodology...if you are a research do some simple recharge by checking then out in Google and Twitter then engage them in academic discourse....I can't spoon fed you sir

Do some research? But shouldn't their conclusion be based on a research? And what is this research? And even providing a link to a research is not enough because we will need to scrutinized the method of data collection, the sample size, etc., to know they even know how a research is conducted in the first place. Or can I find these 'researches' they've been posting on a reputable journal?

SmartPolician:
My problem is the fact that most of you don't think. Yes, I mean it. Nigeria is a country that cares less about data. That's why having a proper national database has never been a priority.

To this data you shared, there are lots of rural places where locals give birth and the babies aren't even taken to hospitals afterwards. They believe that they can do what hospitals do. Governments don't care to get the number of childbirths from such places because nobody cares about data in Nigeria.

Then, someone gives you statistics without telling you the methodology used to arrive at the figure. You quickly share it because it gives you an illusionary sense of self-worth (boosts your ego) and helps you to demarket others.

Exactly my issues with the StatiSense guys. No link to the research proving this, no link to any source that corroborates it. Just statistics without any data to back it up. And some of us are too much into academics to know that isn't how deductions are drawn. You don't even need to be in academic to know that it's pure bullshit.

And what's the source? Is statisense now a source themselves?

easyyoke:
Bro, did you get your Jinko panel from Foauni of recent…. All their stores have been saying they are out of stock. Which store did you get the panel

Foauni. That was over two months ago.

Where do these guys get their stats? Are they now an authority that they are not required to site their source of data? Was this a research or someone's guess work? If a research, what journal was it published in?

Why does the APC have to pay a lot of people to defend them? Just take a look at the front page. Why? Part of the reason I consider the party demonic.

Dam5reey1:
Wrong choice of batteries and not enough panels or efficient charge controller.
You should have done 12V 100ah LFP, 1.1KW panels and MPPT charge controller stand alone or Hybrid.
LFP batteries are happy when you don't fully charge and will continue to maintain capacity when you have good sunlight.
Just like @sapiosexuality has a properly designed set up which we actually designed together

Lol. Boss. This dude saved me a lot. I'm still grateful.

Indaboskikoboko:
this your setup is max. How much would this roughly cost?

And how much load do you carry on this? Do you use NEPA or you are completely off grid?

I think it cost me about 2.5M. 2.3 exact price but the stress, cost of logistics, etc., and it should be around 2.5.

My load isn't much though. A TV, fridge, standing fan, rechargeable fan, 8 bulbs, a sound bar, decorder, and occasionally pressing iron and blender. The setup is more than enough for me.

Considering the setup, NEPA is useless to me. It's pointless. What's the point of using NEPA if my battery never runs out? I tried it once in the first week and they almost destroyed my inverter with their unstable power. So yeah, I think I'm completely off grid.

Indaboskikoboko:
Bro, I bought my battery from who I was told was reputable. I bought only one and plan to add more soon if everything works well with this one. But I will let the OGs here help me decipher what the real issue before I decide to replace anything

But still, could you tell me which companies are reputable companies? And how to buy from them direct. And which brand of battery, panels, and controller you are using in your setup btw.

Edit: I have tried getting my stuff from fouani but the smallest battery they had was 900k+ then followed by 2m+ so I was priced out

Okay I see. My battery and inverter are SAKO. A LiPo4 200ah 5160wh battery and a 24V 3.5kva Hybrid Inverter. I contacted the company directly and they were able to send it from Lagos to my location. I got my panels from Fouani. 4 555w Jinko Solar Panels.

I think Fouani and Gennextechnologies dot com are legit online sources for solar systems. I think from my little understanding so far Felicity, Sako, SRNE, Wellion are some of the legit companies but where you buy them is more important.

Indaboskikoboko:
Hi guys. I made a setup of 1 220ah battery and 4 180w batteries to atleast power my bulbs, fan and charge the phone a few times 24/7.

Since it is rainy season, there are some days that the battery doesn't get fully charged and I thought is to be expected. But when there is sun the battery us full within a few hours of sunlight.
Today has been been cloudy for most of the day. I took a nap this evening and woke up sweating, just for me to go and find out my battery has drained.

My question is, is it normal for this type of situation to happen during days with low sunlight? Asking because I specifically installed 4 panels thinking they could be enough to get some juice for me during days like this.

Let me know what you think. Tips and advices are welcome too

Chai. My battery has never drained since I installed mine. It's been two months now and running. Even under the rain, my panels sometimes charge. No matter how bad the rainfall is in the past two months I always get a full battery.

I will suggest you add more panels and upgrade your batteries. I think it's better to buy the panels and battery yourself from a reputable company. And your charge controller too may be an issue.

In Which world is a convicted criminal, rapist, white supracists, anti science and common sense, anti immigrant in a country built by immigrant better for the world?

How did his previous 4 years made the world a better place?

Like for real?

We need the US not distabilizing the world. The current US leaders have thrown the world into more turmoil than Trump ever did while appearing decent.

OneCandleAway:
The Ukraine war will end once trump wins

It may not end immediately but there will be an attempt to end it. They will try.

God1000:
Good, she has my 100% support.


Mr Biden made the right decision that will pave the way for the first female US president


Whatever propaganda and campaign of calumny Donald trump and his party will come up with against Kamala Harris will fail.

Republicans should desist from character assassination and focus on real issues

Trump, as crazy as he is, is better for the world.

E choke...

Wow! This is how I envision the setup in my future home

I think Nairaland has more pressing issues that need addressing than this attempt at romanticisation of beef.

The hatred here is too much and reading anything is painful. We should be talking about correcting that.

The last time you promised to cleanse this place, it happened for few weeks and now we are back to the old norm.

This place needs focused and intense intellectual and consistent fumigation. You don't stop trying after few weeks. That should be the discussion.

Unfortunately physics doesn't care about your believes. You can prevent a direct lightning by using active lightning protection systems like Indelec PREVECTRON3 last time I checked the price (sometimes in 2021) when USD was ₦580 it was over a million for the device alone minus installation.

Direct lightning is a very rare occurrence. What is common is electrical surge induced by indirect lightning strike or lightning strike in a near by location. This is why it is best ( more economical and practical and prudent) to invest in SPD. Lightning is a phenomenon that is still being understood there is no exact science that can predict it or guarantee protection against it. What exist are standard practice on how to increase your chances of surviving the effect and impact of lighting.

My central point is. You need an SPD. The Chinese and everyone who cares about important infrastructure installs SPD. Turning off a device or breaker will not protect against a lighting surge travelling 100s of miles looking for ground. It would arc and jump between contacts.. best to provide a path for it to follow. Of cause we are all adult and thus free to do whatever we think work for us.

I get you. I'm not saying it in a way that is anti science but a sort of unbelieve that we've not found a solution despite our knowledge of classical and quantum physics.

I believe that with some tweaking and application of Faraday, Gauss and Refraction laws it's possible that we'd find a solution just like Leo Szilard did with E=MC². A system that can give 100 percent diversion and guarantee against both direct and indirect lightening.

Maybe there's no technology for it yet but I believe it will be found when engineers start exploring or tweaking the already existing laws in science. It's hard to believe that countries like China will spend billions of dollars on Gigawatts (not mega o) of solar energy and still leave their solar grid to any sort of chance. It has to be 100 percent efficient for them. Or maybe I'm overestimating them.

bigrovar:
Turning of a breaker is no sure way of stopping and the Electrostatic discharge you get from a direct or near by lightning. You best bet is proper ground and a well installed SPD. Even that is no 100% guarantee especially if it is a direct strike which nothing can survive.

Seriously? What about countries, like China, that use solar to supply a large percentage of their country? Will a direct attack also attack their grid or there must be a higher method of protection against it? With the level of technological advancement, I find it hard to believe that there isn't any way to stop all types of attack.

After the last attempt by Seun to sanitise this place and all the noise on how he neglected here and ready to cleanup and now this, I don't think any self respecting person will respect him.

You own a forum that is full of hate and grooming of cyber bullies, cyber criminals, demonic tribalists, and all forms of vices and you are not doing anything to clean it up.

It is either you like it that way because you are receiving money from certain elements to make it remain so or you are a FOOLISH person who lacks leadership and management skills and shouldn't be entrusted with any form of power.

Sapiosexuality:
Please, is this odour an inverter produces when it sound increases normal? What is responsible for the smell? It only happens once the sound increases suggesting, to me, a heating problem. I've been perceiving the smell from day 1. It comes out from the fan area of the inverter.

Update. It seems the smell is from the DC breaker (as I just tested by putting my nose close to it. Product is Schneider I'm been told of Schint).
