Car TalkRe: ABS Light Showing On The Dashboard by truthbetold22: 4:38pm On Oct 16, 2022
mine85:
my abs wire around the tyre was disconnected. so, abs shows constantly on my dashboard. my mechanic said that wire disconnected no mean anything much,I should leave it like that. so, we just tie it somewhere around.

even my brake light is showing permanently, mechanic said previous owner disconnected the hand brake, that handbrake doesn't do much as well.

any suggestions?
Your mechanic is an idiot! If you listen to his advice, you would be an idiot too.

Some people have no business owning cars.

it wouldn't have even not degenerated to this if the Adrusa guy should during the converstaion asked what really went down would have willing and gladly explained and told him if he is unsure to get in touch he had my both Naija and German nr: but internet trolls took it and ran with it without even understanding what went down, now someone is even privy to my hardware and how my hardware is either mounted or unmounted. this is going to be my last mention on this i willing to pay anybody to come over to my plae test and see if whatever i have witten is legitim or not. end of story
This guy is a complete slowpoke. Let’s just say it how it is and rest. What is all this defense for? You may not have had the intention to scam him but you sure weren’t upfront about the condition of the inverter. Wether u wanted to give him a new board or not is after the fact.

Simply accept it as it is rather than spewing rubbish; what is in your hardware mounting or unmounting that we have not seen on google before?

You called the installer a small boy, called the buyer a radionic, what that has to do with buying inverter is what I don’t know? Some of you think old age is enough reason to be condescending or disrespectful. Your age is in your pocket, this is a public forum. There are foolish old men and wise young boys so be guided!!

Which kind over bloated self importance be this?

FamilyRe: Complex Marital Issue : Your Thoughts On This Please. by truthbetold22: 5:58pm On Oct 07, 2022
Meteoritey:
Due to work, my husband and I live in states, and my husband lives in Canada. 3 months ago we had some serious skirmishes during our phone conversation and in the heat of the argument, I told him that he does not appreciate the fact that I am raising the kids and doing everything alone.

To my disappointment, he told me that he is overworked more than me. This really angered me. This got me angry and I hung up. Although He tried to reach me for 4 days, and also sent me some messages, I cut him off without replying, about 9 weeks later, I sent him just a message on an unrelated issue, he ignored my message, after another month, I sent him another message, he also ignored. It has been 3 months now we have not spoken to each other.

Recently my brother had a baby, and he only called once to congratulate them. Moreover my younger sister got admission to a university to study the same course that my husband studied, so naturally, my sister contacted him. My sister said he advised her on what to do and what she should expect. This was about 2 months ago. I personally did not inform him about my sister’s admission myself.

After about one month, my sister also called him for more information, but he has not been picking my sister’s call.

My sisters fiancee also called him to inform him about their upcoming marriage (my same sister that got the admission) he only spoke with my sister and her fiancee once, he stopped further communication with them on both issues of admission and marriage, and that he only spoke with them the first time about the admission and the marriage out of the respect he has for them.

He gave my sister the excuse that it was not proper, for him to speak with her fiancee' because he said that I have not told him anything about the marriage, therefore he can not relate further with my sister as per the marriage. And that it was out of respect that he even called my sister initially to advice her.

What are you thoughts and opinion please.
You are a stupid woman and exactly the reason why sane men should avoid marriage for as long as possible. Marriage is a white man’s contraption meant to benefit a woman only. Other than birthing children, women bring almost nothing to the table. Humans are social animals and not built naturally to live with one partner for 50 years. It is a fallacy.

The average human will get tired of cohabiting even when the other gender doesn’t do anything wrong! Heck, we even get tired of cohabiting with roommates.

Men, for your peace of mind; find a baby mama if you need to have children and save yourself the headache. Too much nonsense in the name of tolerance.

NoToPile:
Loool seriouslyhuh @ all the bolded. I do find it strange that some people don't see anything wrong with that guy's actions.

Sorry what part of Nigeria are you from? I need to understand the marriage process from your side.

Also he was told by the bride and the brides father that December was not okay and they had lot of activities lined up. Read his other post below

Also wedding planning involved the whole family here in Nigeria.
The simple question is “what activities?”

When you clarify, it becomes clear. When you are vague, people pick offense. Did you jump the part where I mentioned that the guy would only get upset if he assumed they were needlessly wasting time and not wanting to meet his own schedule? Do you know if December is his most suitable time based on his family too?

He should have been told clearly why December wasn’t feasibly. He is not a mad man and would have understood.

And yes, marriage planning should be left to bride and groom. Nobody says family input isn’t needed but in the two cases on this thread, isn’t it clear that the marriages were ruined due to the over bearing nature of the family of the bride?

wamide042:
Congratulations dear…. God has already delivered you.
My younger sister is also going thru same right now and as it is we also have called off the wedding. My sister’s fiancé is so full of himself, when he brought the marriage proposal my family agreed but told him that they could only do it next year because we already have events planned up for this year and it will be too chocked. Naso guy begin dey vex to the extent of him saying that my Dad should write out the budget that he will write my Dad cheque.
Omo!! We blasted him and his family infact it was sister herself that said she’s no longer interested in the wedding and yes we agreed with her. That’s an insult to us like…WTF !! Loro kan sha.. no wedding again and my sister too is Happy right now.
This is ridiculous. I will summarize as follows.

1-The guy obviously wanted December because that is when most festivities are slated for Especially people who have a lot of family and friends outside the country. If for any reason this December did not work for your family, the onus was on you guys to give him cogent reasons why including naming the events that are so important to your family in December. A wedding is a weekend only, not a month.

2- The guy suggested that if the money was the reason for the delay, he could write a check to cover everything. This clearly shows that you guys did not provide any reasonable explanation for not wanting this December. For example, you cannot tell a man that you have a family burial in December and he would still insist on using December.. it is common sense.

3- why all the sensitivity?? The guy get money, is that a sticking point too? He offered to cover your family’s part of the wedding, is that a wrong thing too? Having money comes with a little bit of pride, deal with it. Pride isn’t the same as disrespect.

4- when your sister gets to 30 years now without another suitor, you all will look back at this and wish you handled it better. The sticking point here is that he was never told exactly why December would not work. Your family did not also bother to ask why he really wanted December. Everything na cooperation

5- finally; wether your sister is happy or not, it is no loss to the guy. Your case is exactly like the op, Nigerian families with their over bearing attitude and need for constant validation. Wedding planning should be left to bride and groom. No need for this free for all.

Peace!

If this solar thread was so serious, you won’t list items for sale every few pages. If u have listed any item for sale, then adding price will not disturb the thread any more than you and your fellow sellers already have. Rather, it will pique interest.

It is because you realize that most people will frown at your ridiculous prices that you choose to hide the price until a non-suspecting or ignorant buyer contacts you directly so you can rip him off in your WhatsApp.

The hypocrisy of Nigerians stinks to high heavens. But of course, our leaders are to blame.

Monbat is a UK brand of AGM batteries sold by this reseller. Another premium brand for Team Lead Acid but for all those who dont want waste money on batteries that do not last, this is a good brand to check out.

4. Trojan Batteries

Eauxwell Nigeria Ltd
81B Oduduwa Crescent, Ikeja GRA, Lagos
07039481061

http://www.eauxwell.com/

Looking to buy the Rolls Royce of Lead Acid Batteries, then look no further as their authorized dealer dey for your backyard. Go to their office or give them a call to confirm prices and availability.

That's all for Team Lead Acid for now. I mainly provided AGM/VRLA batteries because for me they are more maintenance free and convenient than gel/flooded. Most of the chinese lead acid batteries flooding the market now are knock offs and will not last long. Better to "enhance" your budget and get named brands. If these batteries are out of your budget and your looking for gel/flooded batteries, you can try out the Simba/Luminous range of products https://www.thesimbaden.com/ or EastMann range of products also https://eastmannigeria.com/. Both have offices on their websites where you can check out their products and get a warranty.

Team LifeP04, we are up next.
You are doing well sir!!! Let’s get this greedy, rude and arrogant resellers like Kiekie out of business on this thread..

Here is my experience, I have decided not to share the name of the vendor, not that with a little bit of digging and adding 2 to 2, the vendor cannot be identified.

I contacted one of the most prolific advertisers of solar panels, inverters and batteries on nairaland.

I was given pricing.

I then delayed in concluding the deal.

In the meantime, the advertiser reached out to me a few times to inquire about the deal. I did not respond.

When I was finally ready to deal, I sent the advertiser messages, but the messages were not delivered.

I conducted some tests that revealed the advertiser had blocked me.

I smiled.

I then said what nonsense!

In my line of business, clients and potential clients can ask for quotes and only buy 9 or 10 months later or even a year or more after, I never ever think of blocking them because they did not buy right away or did not respond to requests for the status of the potential order.

I then started looking for those who sell the same thing locally ( I am based in Abuja, the advertiser is based in Lagos).

I found one, but he said he didn't have it in stock, but pricing was perfect. I told him oh great.

Will buy next week.

I went to his office around 4pm and he complained that the equipment isn't in his store, that it is in the warehouse, and that it would take some time to get it, I said I would wait, he said its late that I should come back on Monday if my memory serves me right.

I sort of got the vibe that this guy does not have the equipment and is sourcing it from third parties.

So, I then started doing the same thing he did, went to the vendor site, got the list of authorized dealers, worked the numbers until I got the guy whose bread and butter is inverters, batteries and solar panels.

I ended up getting it cheaper than the cost of buying it from Lagos, and without the need to pay for shipping from Lagos.

If I wanted to buy from anyone, I would buy from those who have contributed immense intellectual capacity to this thread.

Why should I buy from someone who is only interested in come and buy from me, but when the potential buyers are asking questions, they don't answer.

It is pretty obvious, who is in it for the money and who is in it because they love the field.

If I wanted to do something this technical, I would get the vendor training and certification to back me up, any other thing, it is clear this is a way of making money and not something those advertisers do because they love the field, in fact, they will drop ship as soon as they can catch the scent of the next big thing that can bring money.
This useless Kiekie again. Even the blind can see..

He must be cursed to think everyone who contacts him must buy immediately. He is just a low life modafucker who deserves to be inside one village with no civilization.

No decorum, no wisdom, no tact, no customer support, no patience, no intelligence.

Dense seller this Kiekie!!

You keep talking about old age because it must be painful that at 70, you haven’t achieved anything meaningful other than attempting to be relevant on Nairaland.

Now you are resorting to threats, oga that drowns people on Nairaland. You need to fix your life before playing the moral police.

My apologies for bringing this up again as I believe it must have been settled as we always do. Once a while on this thread, the monsters in us manage to creep out grin but one thing that stands out is that we always thrash things out amicably and then the monsters creep back in until it's another time to rock and roll.

Truth be told, I'd have argued that I've never had a war of words with @truthbetold if the pages were not referred to as evidences and I was amused going thru my posts on those referenced pages. A weakness is that I don't easily recollect things like that. In one AliExpress thread like that, an inquiry of importance was made by a user who had literarily "abused" me many pages back, I'd already quoted him and posted the helpful reply to his inquiry before the username rang a bell and I recalled the incident. Of course I resisted the urge to delete my helpful post.

All what I'm trying to say is that we learn everyday and I have again pick a few things which I already know before now

First is that as long as we are users of it, the Internet provides a vast repository and references of our footprints.

Second is that it's wise that we are quite mindful of our interactions thru this medium much the same way we will do in real life scenarios. Although a little difference is that on the internet, we can still manage to go back and edit/undo what we have posted; that is if our village people have not prompted other users to screenshot the original post or quoted it grin

Third is that a recipient(s) of our unsavoury actions on the Internet and with such incontrovertible evidences provided by it, has the right and discretion to pay us back in our own coins, or not.

Fourth is that I have been away from this thread for almost 3 weeks and have missed the interactions. And the first read after my last post here ńa war of words I jam. grin grin
My friend go and sleep. Matter of 3 weeks ago, you are quoting me because you want more action. You prefer that there are issues on the thread yet, you are acting like a peace maker.

Why you nor just read and pass or you want insults too?

Busybody!!

GeorgeD1:
these are single cell 2v batteries common with bank ups power rooms and telecoms mast installation.
i have the 2v 2000ah sonnenschein brand installed way back early 2020. it was a deal too good to resist as i got
them at a massive discount as part of 'project leftovers' and looking back, it's turning out to be one of my best
investments so far. unlike lithium, it's an 'install and forget' kind of set up. i don't have to worry about top balancing,
bottom balancing, bms, voltage run-away, etc. the battery bank just keeps delivering with little or no supervision.
and, i guess that's partly the reason why you see them being installed in those locations you mentioned.
you can choose to believe peeps like us who're quietly enjoying their installations without stress or believe those
so heavily invested in lithium that they would jump at every opportunity to discourage the use of lead acid.
obviously, such folks have an agenda. either they have stock they want to offload on you or they have friends who
are vendors they want to help in selling their wares. the choice is yours.
besides, if these batteries are as 'obsolete' as they want you to believe, why are banks, telecoms coys, major hotels
and multinational oil firms still holding on to them as if their life depends on them? need i say more? wink
This man, your defense of lead acid batteries over lithium is so pathetic and lame that it beggars belief. You do not want to move on from your old and obsolete technology, congratulations..

But please, stop trying to prove that lead acid is problem free because again, you have invested in a 48v 2000ah bank and a 40kw solar array so you can afford to discharge to 80% only.

Isn’t it pathetic that you know more than the white man who invented both battery chemistries. Isn’t it also lame that you know more than the white man who choose to use lithium batteries in laptops and electric cars with many of this electronics going 10-15 years on the same batteryhuh

Finally, who told u that lithium users battle with voltage and balancing? You are so stuck with old technology that you won’t do your research on how lithium works. Lithium batteries are coming with 5 year warranties and you are speaking English. Even for diy coupled cells, a proper bms and a reltec balancer and you are good for 5 years.

Please stop misleading people with your oversized bank and your oversized panel array. Not everyone can afford 10 million Naira arrays.

Allow people with small budgets to get lithium batteries that can stand the test of time and can get filled up quickly without 40kw arrays.

Enough of all the lead acid hype. All lithium users have had lead acid disappointments before we all ran to lithium.

You don hear person come here say e lithium battery don fail since 3 years wey people on this thread start to use am?

Wetin u wan hear again?

FireTheSun:
You know you have been posting and posting since yesterday and l am trying not to respond to those FALSEHOOD you are spreading, just because it is not in me to start this back-and-forth with you, on this matter.

If l should share our Chats the way you did, you will expose your lies by yourself.

But let me limit myself to the Picture in the attachment you posted.
the first picture shows a little, of one of the damages wherein you used your foot to squash the Aluminum Steptiles of the Roof. The depression can be seen in that picture! You destroyed the Roofing sheet by creating "puddles" everywhere you matched with your Feet, Five adults running riot on an Aluminum Steptiles Roofing. huh shocked
Is that something that can be repaired by using a rubbery material to plug a hole (which is mostly what the Roofer you sent did, to plug Holes created by the indiscriminate Nailing you did on my Roof, causing leaks?

The Second Picture also shows water-soaked on my Suspended Ceiling! Many of them were condemned because they became soaked and buckled.
Did the Roofer you sent also replace such Ceilings, some of which fell down after soaking so much Water?
Yes, he tried his best and l confirmed that. After he left, there were still leakages, some of which we discovered later when we started seeing equipment soaked! All this are in the chart l sent to you.
My Tenant was also not around for sometime, and we did not know that the Roof on his side of the installation was damaged so much. Roofer did not know, could not identify or repair his side, when the Roofer you sent came.

Contrary to your belief, l felt you are wasting my time because l knew an irreversible damage has already been done to my Roof, from your incompetency!
I called the Roofer back a second time, but did not tell you.
I paid him #10,000 for that second Visit but that money was too inconsequential for me to call you over moreover, you are always giving me excuses of why you cant show up to visit and inspect the damage you caused. I have Proof of this, if you doubt it.

Due to the nature of damage (changing the contour of the ridges of the Roofing sheet , with your careless walking over it, making water run-off impossible, creating puddles everywhere, which later react with the Aluminum and create holes at that spot) and how widespread they are, l concluded l have no choice than to change them to new ones!
I dont want everybody in the neighborhood wondering why Roofers are always climbing my Roof every now and then, that can be embarrassing to me afteral, they would be wondering: if the Sheets are bad, why cant he just change them? grin No Roofer has climbed my Roof in the last four years, before you came.

The job l engaged you for, was to install 10 Panels, (just like engaged someone else to install 5 panels later), not to damage my Roofing and be telling me that you sent a Roofer to "plug the Holes created by your indiscriminate nailing and you paid for it"!
How come the other Installer l engaged to the the 5 Panels did not cause any damage to the Roof?

I even gave you Extra Money, apart from your charges and cost of items you supplied (which l said you should use to drink beer with your Boys), on completion of the work that day, do l deserve what l got in return?

I was not asking you for anything, when l made my post a few days ago, l did not even identify you but you were trying to play smart, by quickly identifying yourself, trying to seize the momentum, once you read where l said People can send me l private message, if they wanted to know the Installer who did the terrible job, but you then use that opportunity to lie and pretend like you did a wonderful job! grin

Well, if an Installer caused a problem running into Millions of Naira for a Client, just to install Ten Panels, can we say that Installer is a Professional or have we change the meaning of doing 'a Professional' job?

The most painful part in all these was that l was warning you, as you were doing the work, that the way you are walking carelessly on these Aluminum Steptiles Roofing sheet, you will damage it (even my wife was complaining about the same thing) but you said l should not worry, it cant be damaged! But you ended up damaging the whole Roofing Sheets,.

I am trying not to be pushed into uploading pictures of your terrible work because it adds nothing to me.
But l dont like all these white washing you are doing here.
Leaking and damaged Roofing sheets should not be the End Result of the job l gave you, irrespective of whether you sent a roofer back to assist in plugging some of those Holes.
The Crushed Roofing sheets cant be straightened back, so the DAMAGE you caused is permanent (and they keep leaking time, after time .... unless l change them, which l will, in a few weeks time.

if you want to know how the "Proper" Professional Installer l engaged, who did not cause a single damage, did the installation, including correcting the shoddy work you did, l can refer you to him, for some free lectures.

I am just restraining myself, l watched the pictures of the damages on my phone again, just now.
Its your Cross, you have proved your Competency and judged yourself to have done a "fine job", what else can l say
.?
Three takeaways from this

1- 10 545w panels and 5 650w panels cannot be on a 5kw mppt and you assume you got good service. That is just the installer maxing out the cc and leaving the rest to waste.

2- no one is spreading falsehood here, a copy of your chat was uploaded and you clearly said, from 15 holes, it is now only 2 that is leaking. If more holes of more leakage turn up, you have to reach out again and allow Zeestone fix it even though I realize that it is not entirely his fault and I ll explain below.

3- I am a building engineer. Wen working with aluminum roofing sheets, anything less than actual 0.45mm gauge is total rubbish and will create issues like this whenever anyone climbs the roof no matter how many. The sheets are so weak that even if you are very careful where you place your legs, wherever you walk on depresses and then shrinks and will not rise as it should. A proper 0.45mm-0.55mm gauge will not give this issues from my experience.

I am certain that @firethesun’s roof was installed by people who likely went for lower gauge aluminum thereby making Zeestone’s install way more difficult. I have experienced this many times. Roofers sell 0.35mm low quality as 0.45mm and the average home owner doesn’t know.

If you doubt me, @firethesun can get another roofer with a caliper to measure the gauge, he should then post pictures here.

You really should check your roof quality before accusing anyone.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by truthbetold22: 2:13pm On Jul 22, 2022
Now that @zeestone has come out and clarified, has his business collapsed? You left out the part that he sent roofers and paid for it.

You also left out the part that you contacted him a second time to come fix 5 panels which he declined because he was busy. If his job was so bad the first time, I doubt you would reach out to him again.

@firethesun, How do you feel now that he has clarified? When service providers own up to their mistakes, customers can review and decide if they want to use them.

If everyone does not mention names, how do we do due diligence on the thread? By contacting every installer and travelling from state to state to go see their jobs? Shey na Nairaland everybody meet. Na here the reviews suppose Dey.

I just want to make common sense!!
