We just make ridiculous claims. Anyhow. Everyhow

I'm surprised this is news to you. This is a well known thing in Nigeria.

Try and watch the whole video if you can. But pay specific attention starting from 40 minutes.

You people need to stay up to date about what is happening in Nigeria. Being uninformed is a dangerous thing.
Crime / Re: Cattle Herders Destroyed My Farm In Ogun by unikwa: 3:27am On Jan 14, 2021
The cattle are owned by politicians.
The Fulanis help them raise the cows. One Fulani could have cows from several politicians at the same time.
This why DPO's will never respond. If they say anything, their life would be made a living hell.

Childish.
America has turned into a laughing stock.
World leaders are questioning the perversion in the democratic system.
Australia, Germany, France, Mexico, Russia are questioning events occurring in the USA.
Even the ACLU disagrees.
Foreign Affairs / Re: Trump's Administration Is "Irresponsible" - Joe Biden by unikwa: 2:17am On Dec 30, 2020
Based on the election irregularities I have seen, Biden did not win.

The guy who rigged an election is calling the victim irresponsible?

Why are the courts refusing to look at the evidence? Not a single court has agreed to look at all the overwhelming evidence available.
Courts should not dismiss cases without looking at the facts presented. By that token, Biden will NEVER be accepted as a legitimate president. That is a blemish on him.
Business / Re: What Is Your Experience With Shoptomydoor by unikwa: 2:02am On Dec 30, 2020
I shipped some items through shoptomydoor - US to Nigeria.
I was billed based on weight and size.
After making full payment, they sent me a new invoice, charging me another 40% of the amount I already paid.

Basically, don't assume the amount they charge you the first time is what you will pay. They could return for more money.

Good to know you're alert now, but I have already purchased my 24V 100Ah LiFePO4 batt from someone else.
Foreign Affairs / Re: Donald Trump: "The Lie Of The Year Is That Joe Biden Won!" by unikwa: 7:17am On Dec 20, 2020
It is very sad what America has turned into. Election rigging like a 3rd world country.

Then the judiciary refuses to even look at the evidence. Take a look at what John Roberts of SCOTUS did...
https://www.youtube.com/embed/4cLswLTZ18o?start=119&end=404

If Trump feels he won, he needs to contest the election, like anybody would.

Telling him to move on is not the proper way. He needs to exhaust all challenges (January 6). Then it's over.

This is for those who post items online, on e-commerce websites for sale.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Trump: 'There's No Way Biden Got 80M votes, This Was A 100% Rigged Election' by unikwa: 10:31pm On Dec 14, 2020
techmo:
Power sweet die... Trump don taste power now he is addicted
Trump needs to finish things he started. For example, the southern border. More importantly, the deep state needs to be crushed, and the USA protected from socialism/communism. Democrats want to pack the SCOTUS. This must be prevented.

There are numerous reason why a second term is important. Not just for the fun of it.

Some say Trump has bad character. These people are easily fooled. George W. Bush that preceded Trump is the most mild mannered president ever. Yet, Democrats still found ways to denigrate him. You could have a perfect human being as president. But as long as you're Republican, Democrats will find ways to belittle you, and Democrat followers will eat it up hook line and sinker.

Dems say no evidence of fraud? There is overwhelming evidence!

1. Republican observers were not allowed to observe the ballot counting. Why? If nothing nefarious, why not count ballots publicly as the law stipulates?

2. More votes were counted than registered voters. In some cases up to 400%.

3. Votes for Biden, but not for other Democrats on the same ballot. This generally doesn't happen.

4. 100% of Dominion machine glitches have been against Trump. Nothing against Biden.

5. Over half of Dominion employees have deleted their LinkedIn accounts.

6. 100's of sworn affidavit available from election watchers. False affidavit = felony.

7. Democrats are doxing Trump lawyers, to prevent them from investigating the case.

8. Operators of Dominion voting machine have refused to appear to defend their machines. This is strange.

9. Mail-in ballots had return dates earlier than the dates they were sent out. Many had the same dates they were sent out.

10. Confirmed dead people voted for Biden.

11. Multiple voting in many states.

Biden supporters won't care about these facts. But every question is clearly abnormal, and many are clear violations and evidence of fraud.
Any Nigerian that supports Biden, also supports fraud in Nigeria's elections too.

Even though election boards have certified, Arizona, and Pennsylvania governors won't certify, until all court cases are resolved. If this goes past December 8, then election goes to the House of Assembly, where Republicans have a majority. Trump wins.
Also, if it ends up in the SCOTUS, Trump wins.

Travel / Transport Cost For Tractor Implements by unikwa: 4:43pm On Nov 26, 2020

Origin: Ogoja
Destination: Ilorin

What is the cost?

Technology Market / Re: 5kwh Solar Generator - Cost Analysis by unikwa: 7:31am On Oct 16, 2020
jksxxxx:
Oga your price fit send person go village

Good detailed post. Thanks for sharing.

>>>My bluegate 5.5kva inverter I bought it 55k but brand new is around 200k first ..now it's around the same price or buy fairly used 55k

Buying used is cheaper if you can get it. The risk of secondhand is higher of course.

>>>I use two luminous battery 200ah I bought them 120k each

I'm assuming your batteries are FLA/AGM? Which only has about 600 cycles?
Mine is 24V LiFePO4 (LFP). Gives about 3,000 cycles.
600 cycles means your batteries will last about 2yrs if cycled daily.
Mine, will last about 10 years. Even after 10 years, it would still have about 80% capacity left.

That means,
Cost per year for FLA = 240k/2 = N120k.
Cost per year for LFP = 456k/10 = N45.6k.
Do you see the huge difference in cost?

>>>if your area has light like one day off one day in you don't really need solar panel

That is true. However, can you guarantee there will be grid power every two days?
Also, can you guarantee that the rate of grid power (per kWh) won't one day surpass the rate from solar?
The kWh rate for solar will never change.
Unless you're renting your place, I see no reason not to get solar panels, if you can afford to.

>>>fairly used panel 25k

Where do you get fairly used panels from? I only see new panels being sold online.
How many watts panel sells for 25k?

>>>so total everything 640k for everything

No. Your calculation is totally wrong. Your setup is based on FLA batteries. Mine are based on LFP batteries.
Technology Market / Re: 5kwh Solar Generator - Cost Analysis by unikwa: 9:59pm On Oct 15, 2020
What can 5kWh power?

LED bulbs - 12W
24" LED TV - 40W
Laptop - 45W
Fridge - 150W
Floor/Ceiling fans - 50W

If running everything together, it means they'd pull 317W.
So 5kWh/317W = 15h.

Of course, a fridge comes on/off. So it won't consume as much power. Likewise, it's unlikely all electronics/appliances would be running nonstop for 15hrs.
Also, LiFePO4 has DoD of 80%. That must be considered too.

You can easily do the calculation according to your unique situation.

Technology Market / 5kwh Solar Generator - Cost Analysis by unikwa: 7:33pm On Oct 14, 2020
Let's examine the cost of a solar generator today.

(1)
Battery:
24V 200Ah LiFePO4 battery - US$1,200.
24*200 = 4.8kWh.

(2)
Charge Controller:
What capacity of charge controller is suitable for it?
A lifepo4 can be charged at between 0.3C to 1C.
So 0.3*200 = 60A.
A 24V 60A MPPT charge controller can be purchased for $125.

(3)
Solar Panels:
How many 320W solar panels are needed, for 5 hours of sunshine?
4.8kWh / 5h = 960W.
So we need 3 solar panels, 320W each.
Cost: N40k*3 = N120k

(4)
Inverter:
5.5kW 24V Pure Sinewave Inverter
N185k

Cost: $1200 + $125 + N120k + N185k.

At exchange rate of N380/$1, $1325 = N503,500.

Total: 503,500 + 120k + 185k = N808,500.

The battery can last 3,000 cycles, i.e. 8-10 years.
Career / Re: Switzerland Introduces Highest Minimum Wage In The World (₦20.5Million Per Year) by unikwa: 12:38am On Oct 04, 2020
Salary means nothing. The question is, what is the purchasing power?

Accommodation for a month in Bern, for one person, will cost in the region of $1,366, or $86 a night in an Airbnb.

A meal will cost you approximately $15-$20, with an additional beer costing around $6.00 and coffee costing around $5.00 a cup.

Switzerland is the 3rd most expensive country in the world. https://wealthygorilla.com/most-expensive-countries/
#2. Cayman Islands
#1. Bermuda

Having said that, Switzerland has a high standard of living. I also love the quality of their products. Something for Buhari to aspire toward.

Satellite TV Technology / Charge Controller Installation In Ilorin by unikwa: 3:47pm On Sep 15, 2020
I need someone to install a new charge controller in Ilorin.

I have an existing solar power installation. Everything is working great.
It has the following...

- solar panels
- Famicare PWM charger+inverter
- AGM battery

As I said, the above is installed, and working perfectly.

Now I want to move to LiFePO4 battery. Unfortunately, the Famicare cannot charge Lifepo4. So I purchased a makeskyblue charge controller.

I need an installer to switch out Famicare, and replace it with the new controller.

It is a 24V system.

Thank you.

Agriculture / Super Gro by unikwa: 6:28pm On Aug 17, 2020
I have seen a fertilizer product called Super Gro.
I don't quite understand what it's about, except that it's an organic liquid fertilizer, instead of the usual NPK chemical fertilizers.

Is Super Gro supposed to be used in conjunction with the usual chemical fertilizers, or can Super Gro be used on its own?
In other words, is Super Gro supposed to replace the usual fertilizer farmers use?
Politics / Re: Kano IPMAN Directs Members To Sell Fuel At ₦150 Per Litre by unikwa: 2:26am On Aug 06, 2020
All refined oil is imported.
The Naira is no longer what it used to be. Exchange rate has gone to crap. So anything imported, will cost more.
Nigeria itself is short on dollars. So increase in petrol price is inevitable, otherwise, Nigeria won't be able to import petrol.

All the money they should have used to build Nigeria, has been squandered, and deposited in foreign banks. Now the day of reckoning has arrived.
They've been spending billions of USD on importing refined oil products. Nigeria has some of the dumbest leaders.

Dangote sir, where is that refinery?
