Technology MarketRe: Diy Lithium Ion Like-minds by Wizyoung(m): 12:08am On Apr 07, 2024
officialfestus:
I source for cells around my vicinity, yes they're 18650 cylindrical cells.
For the soldering aspect, I bought a soldering iron from aliexpress that heats up in seconds as I first encountered the challenges you're facing now, and the rest was history.
Happy build to you.
Thank you for the succinct answers.

I'd love to start building and would really appreciate your help on:

1. How to get the soldering iron you now currently use. The soldering aspect is a major challenge for me. I'm good with soldering onboard but this 18650 has proven to be a major challenge

2. Where to outsource quality cells at affordable prices

3. BMS for my built pack

Where did you buy your lithium cells?

Were they 18650 cylindrical li cells, if yes how did you solder each cell together? I can't seem to successfully solder two 18650 together in a firm connection using regular soldering iron and solder lead

Thee phone was working finep until I removed the screen to test another iPhone . Un restoring back the screen to the former phone, the phone nolonger comes up. It wouldn't power on, charge or show any sign of life. So I figured it must be a blown fuse or trister related issue on the board. It's an iPhone 6s plus

that one concern you. Una go relax for lungu inside ikorodu dey ask for pay on delivery. Meet my rider at an open spot, you refused. I had to cancel.. as simple as that.
Lolz! I understand you. Sincerely...
Some buyers can be very funny. Ordinary face to face, some buyers will still frustrate a seller and not show up after letting the seller waste his time and money to the desired meeting location.

I've had a guy request for a POD for gadget only for dispatch to call in stating the guy has problem with his bank account. Hence could not proceed. Story... Who is responsible for the dispatch cost ( a loss). That's me...

So believe me, I understand you but you could have just told him straight up rather than deceiving him and acting as though a dispatch is truly coming to his location.

His experience might just be the reason why he isn't sending you an upfront. Lying about "fake transfer" was kinda low . It discredits you further.

Happy Easter, sir.

Technology MarketRe: MTN Mifi Battery Issue, Anyone? by Wizyoung(m): 11:08am On Mar 24, 2024
Buy an original iTel battery to replace

It is noteworthy stating that replacing the battery for this MiFi is not a solution to the charging issue. It is a common problem with this MTN MiFi. I currently use one and had to dismantle and fix the power issue myself.

My bet is that the battery that came with it is still functional and doesn't require replacement. Just take it to a phone technician to fix the power and charging issue if you can't do it yourself.

Apparently, MTN was experimenting with this particular MiFi model.

ReubenE:
Is there such thing as "normal times" in Nigeria...has there ever been? Those responsible for managing Nigeria always create the worst scenario and ask people to adjust which this very clamoring is a part of.

Whether this is a trying time or not, subsistence agriculture can never create food security which is a necessity in every healthy society. Like you said, it is always about survival survival but never about growth and sustenance. Then it begs the question, when will Nigeria ever grow since we are always about finding survival in the face of creating worse scenarios by our own hands, look for a way to survive it then create another worse scenario and repeat it.

The food crisis in Nigeria is not because of the number of Nigerians engaged in Agriculture. I don't believe this needs to be explained.
Let's assume you are right about the trying times and the need for people to farm, are you also aware farmers in Niger State and many other places pay tax to terrorists before they harvest their produce.
The lead comment I responded to, the poster even insulted Southerners for being lazy that they don't want to farm. Perhaps he doesn't know people in the South also engage in one form of commerce or another before generating the needed monies to buy from farmers in the North. Is it that every Nigerian in the South or all over the country must abandon what they do that keeps the economy moving to engage in Agriculture because we want to survive? The number of farmers in Nigeria is never the reason why there's food crisis. Without solving the underlying problems, we'll continue to talk about farming as survival without actually surviving.
This is an awesome submission.

The truth is many Nigerians supporting the current laxity of the government do so because they've been subjected to suffering for so long that they can no longer tell the difference between SURVIVING and GROWING.

"Nigeria will be great again" crew won't understand that great government leads to great policies and decision making which in turn makes for a great environment for citizens to thrive.

@wizyoung please I need help on how I can fix my Romoss sense 8+ power bank, just yesterday being 6th January 2024, it’s no longer powering ON after the charging Adapter got burnt. Please I just bought it on 14th November 2023 on Jumia. Is there any way it can be fixed & can start working again. I would really appreciate any form of help or idea on where or how my ROMOSS power bank can be fixed. This incident happened at a charging center where I usually go to charge my phone and power bank due to lack of electricity in the area that I live. That’s the power bank.
I'm sorry that happened to your unit. Your best bet is to take it to a technician (phone repairer) to have it fixed. So many of them can fix bad power banks

If you live in cloud cuckoo land that's your problem.

There are rules that guide any action.

If you like, climb to your state House and pull out your governor for beating then watch what becomes of you.

Plonker.
So you really can't drive your point home without being emotional and insolently rude about it?

Take home for you: Go back to history class and see why and how some governors were impeached in the past since the birth of democracy.

When you become a President some day, you should keep praising your politicians and be hailing them while you play powerless as a President. Then let's see who is more toothless. You or a bulldog without teeth?

Go and sleep.
Lolz! Immunity! Indeed! Thanks for indirectly stating that the constitution offers provision for Immunity at the face of glaring corruption.

What has tribal war got to do with doing the right thing? Are you trying to say playing politics with the future of youths and the lives of unhappy citizens by ignoring the abuse of power should be commended as an act of diplomacy and peace keeping?

My friend, you better wake up now if you've been sleeping already.

You are very funny.............you think a president can arrest or punish a sitting governor??

Try and Google what your governor get a month and you will surprised (i mean minus the security vote).

Governors are the real thieves but alot of you are so blind to that cos they cleverly direct everything to the presidency.
Your submission here lack substance. So now that I governor earns massively, he should now use his monthly earnings to fund state budget? It's fine as long as he is only spending the billions meant for him but guess what, he spends more than his entitlement..

Look at you making light of a president's political authority and power. Please enlighten me; how do you think bodies like EFCC help the President in a sane nation? Does a president through the Senate keep approving allocation funds to states whose financial record is riddled with irregularities while he folds his arms because in your thought "the only way to ensure accountability is to arrest them by himself"?

Finally, educate me: does the constitution provide conditions and modalities for the impeachment of a political leader?

There you have it.

It doesn't matter how you look at it, a president is not a Figure head. If things are going wrong at States level and nothing is being done at the Federal level, then I do not blame the sitting governors for having a field day.

We should go Abuja to face tinubu while leaving the governors abihuh
I don't know if this governors are using jazz or we just have alot of educated illiterate in Nigeria.


Your governor is suppose to create job and better the likelihood of where you residing that why he get allocation every month.


Better start asking your governor what he is doing with your money and leave the presidency alone.
The reality is that the so called Federal allocation to states isn't even sufficient enough to sustain some states' basic infrastructures like road maintenance not to mention development of mega project to ease unemployment. So it is neither about the allocation in a sense nor about the governor.

When a sitting governor embezzles state's fund without fear of sanction from the PRESIDENT, it could only mean one thing...

He has a role model at the top - The President

(b)

V+2b = 180
2b = 180 - V

b = (180- 360/n)/2

b = (180n - 360)/2(n)
b = 180(n-2)/2(n)
Finally,

b = 90(n-2)/n

EducationRe: Who Can Help Me With This Maths , I Don't Understand This. Maths people come in by Wizyoung(m): 9:57pm On Dec 22, 2023
But 2b + V = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle)

Then

V = 180 - ((n-2) X 180)÷n)

On simplifying,

V = (180n - 180n + 360)÷n
V = 360/n

I know this answer but i don't know how do the workings to get the answer. So far, none of my workings have been able to lead me to the correct answer.
Please can any one show me the workings?
Let one vertex angle be V
And
One base angle be b then

2b = ((n-2) X 180) + n

See the different answers supplied by calculator on the same equation but different expressions. Or the calculator doesn't know the order of operation?
Surprisingly, my calculator also displayed the same erroneous answer. According to the calculator, 60 ÷ 5(3) is the same as 60 ÷ 5 × 3.

That's like a bug in the computer's algorithm. I'm even surprised that a calculator would throw that up.

EducationRe: Nobody Has Been Able To Get It Right”: Viral Photo Of Mathematics Question Spark by Wizyoung(m): 11:37pm On Dec 11, 2023
People's failure in solving this problem sterns from the fact that they do not fully understand order of operation (BODMAS). More significantly, they can't tell the difference between:

60 ÷ 5(3) { ...meaning divide 60 by the product of 5 and 3}

And...

60 ÷ 5 × 3 { ...meaning divide 60 by 5 then multiply your result by 3}

The former still has bracket that must be simplified before the "division" operation according to BODMAS while the latter must be started with division first according to the same BODMAS.


The valid answer to the posted problem is 4.

Go to court if you don't still agree grin

Labelle:
This MTN Mifi is one of the worst purchase decisions I have made this year. It is completely useless and I truly regret buying it. Go on twitter and type "MTN Mifi Charging" and you will see loads of people complaining about the same thing.

The bloody device will not charge when plugged. Instead it discharges when plugged. It takes forever to charge when switched off and plugged.

Anyone using this for work or school will be sorely disappointed. You can imagine while conducting interviews on Zoom the thing just cuts off. Jeez. It's not even my main internet, I use proper broadband and just use the MTN Mifi as a backup.

Such a waste!
Mtn's zlt mifi is indeed crappy when it comes to charging. It's high endurance battery made me love it.

What I did to mine was; I opened it, checked the input voltage getting to the battery terminals and discovered it was a varying value within the range of 3.5v to around 4.0v.

The cell requires a min of 4.2v to fully charge. So I took a diode and created a jump on the positive terminal to the V+ running from the charging port.

Problem fixed!

Please do not try it if you're not sure about what to do.

I believe competent mobile phone technicians can fix it too. So meet them.

The mifi is great one, nonetheless.

The issue of cell inflation in your power bank is apparently a lithium polymer ish rather than brand related.

It happens to most powerbanks irrespective of the brand.

I've had a quality New Age and Virgin power bank suffer the same fate.

I currently use Romoss. I can confidently tell you that the Romoss is already showing signs of inflation. Although it still works excellently and holds charge as expected. I'm suspecting a capacity drop as the swell becomes conspicuous.

It's so funny how some commenters are blaming OP for buying Redmi. Yet, the same set of people were once singing the praises of Xiaomi and her subsidiaries.

Personally, I still consider redmi as a brand that offer real value for money compared Sammy or any other brands.

The RAM management issues is associated wit the Redmi's MI stock ROM and so has nothing to do with the phone's hardware capacity to multitask. Same issue plagues many other low/mid range models of other brands too.

Unfortunatel, the only viable permanent solution is to ROOT and install a Custom ROM or keep hoping for an official OTA update.
