olatade:
i have a 850va luminous hybrid inverter. two tvs(42 inch and a 55inch) are connected to it.(make sure they're on energy saving mode).ten 5watts energy saving bulbs and two small size(130watts and 70watts) standing fans and a ceiling fan are also connected to it and i run them all at once most of the time. the inverter is durable,it can meet your needs for now that is if you don't put on all you fans at once.
Thanks for sharing

I run two TVs, lights and at least 3 fans at any point in time on mine. It's the 375VA/48V model (300W). Reserved for nighttime loads.
Thanks for sharing, this is the size I'm looking at, 3kw 48V.

If planning solar upgrade in future Ipower [zinnox] is an option if your loads are only tv and fridge plus lights you can easily use a victron 800 VA which can Handel 1600 watts short time loads and much more efficient apart from reliability
You can even optimise buy buying only 2 batteries for 24v but higher ah

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Victron-Mini-Inverter-Charger-Multiplus-12-24-48V-800VA-230V-FREE-EU-Delivery-/302428570028
Thank you for the suggestion but 800VA will be to small even though I don't plan to run AC or heater with it. I have 2 TVs and several fans.

Luminous 3.5KVA is ok. Pls avoid Sukam, the old model is rugged but the new one is bad market.
Thank you.
I was thinking of luminous 3.5KVA but will that be a good choice if I plan to upgrade to solar in the future?

Victron is one of the best inverters you can get. Its global 5 year warranty is attestation to its high quality, engineering precision and ruggedness.
I am offering you a 3KVA 24V Multiplus inverter-charger for N425k.
Pls call/whatsapp 08118419901.
This is quite expensive above my budget, thanks

The bricks are sold in square metres and sold for N5,500. The orange ones are different, about N6,500 for each square metre of those colour ones. They can help you choose one out of numerous combination and design to match your house, or the image you want to project. Check a few pages back, I posted about 6 pictures showing different combinations.

Car TalkRe: Here Are Common CVT Transmission Problems In Honda by tsiriman(m): 10:51pm On Mar 22, 2018
luvinhubby:
CVT is actually the future of automobile transmission.
I have already aligned to that future. Enjoying my 2014 Honda accord with CVT, electronic power steering and direct injection Earthdream engine.

quentin06:
the cvt is a bad idea, it gave the altima and murano a bad reputation of being unreliable.
People mostly have problems with cars when they listen to Kazeems and decide not to follow the manufacturers spec for fluids or parts.

For example, if honda says change your CVT transmission fluid after 30k miles with 08200-HCF2, then you decide to change after 60k miles with Abro or any other recommended by Kazeem, will you now blame the car or manufacturer?

I'm not saying cars don't have design defects but mostly in Nigeria people don't follow manufacturer recommendations.

Car TalkRe: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by tsiriman(m): 12:12am On Jan 13, 2018
Change you CVT fluid if you haven't in a while and you'll be glad you did.

I got a 2013 honda accord some months ago. Nice car, i thought it drives ok but it has this shift hesitation sometimes's on low rpm but I thought it was normal because it was CVT and I've never driven a CVT before this car. I heard with CVTs you don't feel the gears changing but with this car I could sometimes slightly feel the gear change at low rpm, just a slight feeling.

I did little research and discovered that the slight hesitation and vibration at low rpm is not normal and happens to some people and they solved it with a CVT fluid drain and refill.

So i decided to buy 4quarts of Honda 08200-HCF2 Fluid which is the recommended CVT fluid. I watched how the change is done on YouTube and then headed to a filling station. I practically walked them through the fluid drain and refill just like I had seen on YouTube, I refused any suggestion or advice from them, I just instructed them to do as I tell them if they don't want to spoil my gear. I even refused to use their funnel to put in the new fluid as I didn't want contamination so I bought a new funnel.
They drained the fluid, removed the old washer from the drain bolt and used the new washer i bought, then filled the car with the new fluid. We put in almost 4 quarts then started the car shifted through the gears as specified in the manual. After that opened the check bolt so as to gauge fluid. When the fluid gauged and started dripping from the check bolt hole as expected of guaged, they tightened and cleaned up everywhere.
But I had to tell them every step just like I had seen in several YouTube videos, these guys go mess your car up if you no dey careful o, I was in the pit with the 2 of them most of the time.
Most people who did it on YouTube just jacked the car up but I went to a filling station so as to access the drain bolt on level ground. The reason I didn't do a DIY all by myself was Because I didn't have a pit and I didn't want tho use a jack.

After the change I drove the car and It drove like a dream, no low rpm vibrations, no hesitation, the best part is that it now drives like a real CVT as you don't feel the gears changing. The car is super smooth now.
Its just incredible how a CVT fluid change could bring a huge change in the way a car drives.
I will recommend people who have 2013-2017 accords or civics to change the fluid atleast every 20k to 30k miles, you'll be glad.


The most important part is don't leave the job to the mechies alone as they will mess up your car. Very important.

Please who knows any technician or workshop with vacuuming machine in Kaduna. Went round Oriapata couldn't get a single person that had it, so I had to refill my wife's car without vacuuming.

Many of the technicians argued that its not necessary. One said if I vacuum thats the end of my compressor.

allCopacetic:
ABB doesn't do any Low Voltage product manufacturing in Britain. It is also not a British brand. ABB is Swedish.

Original ABB boards have enclosures predominantly made in Egypt and India. While most of the MCBs are made in Germany.

Unfortunately you have the exact same inscriptions as seen on the authentic product replicated on the counterfeits ( made in germany , made i Egypt etc).
Don't buy an ABB board here that is described as "Made in England" its a ruse.
Thank you very much for this information,

please where can I buy the genuine ABB board in Lagos?
