Ummmm,the thing tire me oooooo........
What I ordered in Late February 2020 is yet to enter Nigeria,in-transit between both countries because I used AE standard shipping.
Funnily enough,the 24v 3000watts inverter am currently using now was shipped using DHL in June 2020,got delivered in less than a week.
God help us.
Hiw much was the shipping cost with DHL

Guys... Pls I have a very important question that has been bothering me for months...
How do married Nigerians earning less that 2000dhs cope as a couple in uae

2.lets assume I bring my wife in now, after a while she gets pregnant, is it advisable to let her deliver here considering the cost implications?

3.pls guys I need ur answers and if u in uae n u have ur woman here... Hw do u cope and let's say u have a baby too...
Keep in mind only the man has a job for now
if u and ur wife dey hustle and fit get 2k each that is 4k that will be manageable for both of u na. My take though

Let me say this clearly, it is very difficult to get a job without an agent now because of covid 19 issues.

I didnt get mine through one but i had spent over 300k naira on transport, cv printing and other related charges before the lockdown.

I was almost settling for an agent before a way opened. Please and please, prepare very well, do all necessary things. A guy saw a security job recently with benhindi group, they requested for attested certificate plus 11k aed. He had to send his certificates back to Nigeria.

A lot of things will be opened to you here when you come no matter what we tell you here.
Jobs are so inconsistent, salaries are owed etc
Our history here is getting scary, Filipinos are most sought with high preference.
I was almost discouraged before i came here too, i had ielts band 7, m.sc , 8yrs field experience but no one will look at it because i was from Nigeria. Stylishly, i found a way out.
Our brothers here too are not helping matters always find a way to extort freshers.

Few tips: Stay in Dubai
Go to companies and request to see HR if the company has an agent who supplies them. If yes, meet with such recruiting firm. Most do thorough interview while some will just ask few questions and demand for commission.

Download MOURJAN app and put your profile as a fresher willing to do any job. Owners of company will call themselves and discuss salary with you.

It is not a smooth journey anyways.
What else?, Pray and commit everything to God.

N:B This agent thing in the UAE is not peculiar to job recruitment, projects, labor supply, contracts etc also tow this path. Many a times, there is always an intermediary involved who demands some token for services rendered.

Have a nice day.
Oya na as he be like this so the best job for dubai now na agent work ohhh, since nearly everything need agent to run

So the search now should be how to be a genuine agent in dubai

Hi Ojeysky,

To an extent, yes.... But there are wide differences.
I used to have a Table-Top (student) fridge rated 75W. Every single time the fridge is starting, it pulls around 800/900W...not kidding. Even my 1.5KVA/24V Mopower Inverter beeps. I've run it for over 10hrs,yet it kicks in at over 500W...

My present Inverter fridge cruises from around 20W and gradually reaches the 78W max. It starts coming down after like 5-12hrs. Stabilizes at around 30W after 14hrs.

For the bolded, that's the whole point. Why would it lose power, if you're looking at inverter fridge? With inverter fridge, it's best to run it 24/7. The only periods I cut off power is when there's rain and it comes with Lightning and thunder. I usually do a total isolation of my inverter system, since the house I'm staying doesn't have either a Lightning/thunder arrestor or even grounding for me to use a SPD.
Even if the power loss lasts for about 3hrs, after powering the fridge back, it doesn't go above 55W and within 1hr, it stabilizes back to around 30W...
Ahhhh this is what i need ohhhh.

You're right earthrealm... Same observation with mine. After recently upgrading my system, I left my inverter fridge (rated 55W) permanently ON, through a socket-plug energy meter...

Initially consumes around 78W.... After like 12hrs, it drops to 55W... After 14hrs,it drops to 32W.... And further drops to 30W after 15hrs.

Even when it knocks off, when it comes back On, it stays at 30W. And that's where it has been since.. Just hovering around 30W. Sometimes 28W.

There were very few times though, I've noticed the fridge would be On, due to the compressor sound, but the meter is reading less than 10W...

But before the upgrade, I run it from 8am to around 6pm.... Always runs around 78W-62W.

So,yeah... Inverter fridges are best left permanently ON
Please which fridge is this Model number and the brand

is it 48v?
you know of any budget 48v smart battery charger?
They have 48v too

The AC output i have seen are mostly 120V, reason i really don't like it. i need my 220v to 230v confirm
But their products is very rugged

Not everybody is in Lagos, must of your buyers are still outside Lagos

Reason for the request to put up ur screen replacement on jumia so those of us outside Lagos can buy and look for a phone repairer in our location to fix it

I don't stay or live in Lagos and my device screen is broken

Please RE House,;
Good morning!
I am trying to upgrade my solar installation and I need advise from experienced members, installers and seller in house.
I currently has 4 X 200Ah AGM battery, which have served very well, I am undecided on either going for 8 X 200Ah or I should port to Lithium Battery (LiFePO4)
I know LiFePO4 is better in performance, you can derive more juice from it compare to AGM, I know all that stuff.
But more on value for money,
1. Is these LiFePO4 reliable
2. What's the failure rate like, in AGM battery bank you can replace a failed single unit (though not advised)
3. What's user experience, any user experience?
4. What are good model / manufacturer to consider for value for money
5. What do you advise; buy the AGM or buy the LiFeP04

Thanks
1- very reliable

2- the failure rate is very unlikely, yeah even if any cell pack is bad u can replace it but most times all there need is for u to balance ur battery pack

3- there are user experience here but u can check some of my past posts as at last week to see some YouTube reviews

4- there are premium brands as well as brands that are not too know but stlll value for money

5- Buy lifepo4 , and have rest of mind without babysitting you battery bank, no worries of not having a full charge everyday, have more juices to use.

Go for Lifepo4 please, More value for money

Can you put up your screen replacement up on Jumia, i have a device with a broken screen.

Kindly do that, if we can't get a replacement for your screen then the product is not worth it

Right now the device is just leing in the shelves, because we can't get screen replacement

Please i need help to understand this as a layman.

What make a charge Controller function as a 12V or 24V spec

Is it when you have a battery bank of 12V then it function at that level or 24V and function as same?

Or is it that, same way u connect battery in series to achieve 24V you can also connect panels in Series to make the Charge controller function as a 24V

Max. PV voltage: 50V

But can take 750w for 12V
And 1500w for 24V


This confuses me

Won't the Max PV voltage exceed 50V on 1500w panel arrays

With the 1500w 24V setup panels and charge controller can u connect a single 12v battery without any issue.

Make una help me explain abeg in laymans terms

8.6A will charge an LFP it's just a matter of how long it will take to charge. You should get a more powerful charger, i think @Juo said he has a 40A.
Fyi I have a 50A 24v
Ok just wanted to clear that out. Thanks for the answer

Without BMS you will need manual intervention. This becomes tiring over time. Except you size your bank such that charging and discharging always falls within the wanted parameters.

There are a lot of guys that actually don't believe in BMS as its the weakest link in the Lithium chain. Except of course you get money for Batrium and the likes. I wasn't dey there oo.
Yeah the guy on the YouTube link talk about balancing, and he said onece in 4-6 months

But i was thinking if i stay within the allowed charging and discharging capacity will that be fine without BMS?

Also it seems like Smart Chargers for lead acid battery will also do better in charging of Lifepo4, the highest Volts on my smart charger is 14.8V the amp the highest amp is 8.6A for 12v and about 4A for 24v

Most of the voltage i have seen for lifepo4 is 14.4V my question is will the 8.6A be enough to charge a 12.8v 105Ah bank of Lifepo4
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by spartacus11(m): 12:58pm On Jun 13, 2020
Wow i think i am more comfortable with Lifepo4. Still trying to learn more about putting them together, and appropriate way to charge them and also about the balancing issue

Need to learn more about the balancing, i will like to ask is BMS actually needed on a lifepo4 set up, if you charge and discharge appropriately? I didn't see this guy using any

This was nicely put together. Wonderful piece, now i have a better understanding of the Lithium family

Lithium is not just the future, lithium is the way to go, glad to see that Lifepo4 LFP is very safe and can withstand some level of abuse

Thanks Ceaser for bringing thins to my reading i am so grateful.

The LiFePO4 battery has hybrid characters: it is as safe as the lead-acid battery and as powerful as the lithium ion battery.

I think you should be careful with getting the inverter via Jumia Global. Someone here has posted before of an inverter he got via Jumia global that was advertised as Pure some wave but turned out to be modified wave.

Some of those Jumia global also source the products on sites like AliExpress, so if not for the Corona problem that has slowed down things, I'll have suggested you place the order directly on AE yourself. I have seen this inverter on AE, I'll see if I can retrieve the link and post it for you.
Majority of Jumia Global sellers are sellers on Banggood, Jumia Global items comes with cheap shipping too, this same inverter is about 8-10k to ship from Aliexpress why jumia is 1200 shipping and 1750 customs

When ever i want to review item i see on Jumia Global i go to Banggood and check buyers reviews

That same inverter that guy bought i never rated because details about the inverter where scares, little or no YouTube reviews

But this inverter i have seen some buyers review on the Banghood and YouTube, and they agreed the sine wave in clean but the ratings of the inverter is not as stated that is a 1000w is probably 300-400w in real terms.

I can do with that but if the product go last na waytin i nor know,.

The rate brands dey cut money for inverter is just too much

This product have been on my radar since March this year, so far the reports are good


I am only buying this for now bcus of budget. Though i have not placed the order
