A house help that treats Oga better than the wife is worth sharing the gbola with.

A house help will cook for your husband, serve him, wash his clothes, clean his shoes, sweep his bedroom, dress his bed and you think Oga is foolish not to compensate her with his gbola in a magnificent way

Men are naturally benevolent. No sane man should allow his wife stops him from finding the love of his life.

I am not sure what wrong I have done to Zeestone in demanding for the complete 100 yards which I paid 200,000 naira for. I don't know why he is angry and frustrated.

I should be the angry person. HOUSE, PLEASE BEWARE OF ZEESTONE, HE HAS BECOME DUBIOUS, UNTRUTHFUL, UNTRUSTWORTHY AND A THIEF.

IT IS IMPORTANT EVERYONE KNOWS AND IS CAREFUL WITH HIM. I HAVE PROOF OF ALL HIS VOICENOTES INSULTING ME THAT I AM COMPLAINING OVER JUST 10 METERS OF CABLE which means it is something he does often. 10 METERS WOULD BE OVER 20,000 NAIRA.

BEWARE OF THIS CRIMINAL. DEALING WITH ZEESTONE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I will only make comment on this issue once.

One thing I will tell you all is to pray against bad people that will disguise as friends in your life and drag you at the slightest opportunity. It's not everyone that's smiling at u that have good intentions towards u, when u r down their true intentions comes out.

This same person I have fixed his inverter for free, something that cost me over 70k (I spent that moni cos of padi padi) and he's claiming warranty on damaged MOSFETs.

I sent you cable twice yet you will say it's not complete. While going back and forth of it's complete and it's not complete, Next thing is you began threatening me on the fone and making foul statement like I can use 500k to fight for 50k, I will go on nairaland to go and ruin your reputation, I will arrange boiz to come and beat you. Who would have thought that someone I can close my eyes and spend 100k on if in distress without thinking twice will come and drag me that cable is not complete, such person will threaten to arrange boiz, such person will threaten to pull down my reputation.
You all better be careful with people that smile with you out there. They envy u in secret, one day their action will tell.
Calling me a thief and all sort of damaging things. He's saying them becos he knows I'm worth way more than all these things he's accusing me of.
Mr Reputation ruiner oya keep ruining.
I will also report this case to necessary authorities how you have threatened my life and peace. Should anything happen to me, they would hold you responsible.
You threatened anytime I come to benin you will arrange boiz to beat me up and all sort of things and also arrange for people to come and attack me in lagos. I will report all these things for posterity sake. Nothing must happen to me, you will be held responsible.

In this life pray not to me wicked people that will be smiling to your face.

I won't argue one 5yrs ago matter with u. Something u r bringing to my notice in 2023 wen I have forgotten. Why would I cheat u becos of 6mm cable.

Back to the matter. Stop giving Sorotec bad pr because of ur negligence. This man had 2 issues with d Sorotec inverter he bought.
Bus over voltage alarm
and touch button issues.
The bus over voltage can be stopped by reducing ur lithium battery absorb and float voltage.
The touch button issue is however not his fault.
The touch buttons keep pressing itself as soon as mains comes in, but this issue can be solved by connecting your earth to the inverter. After several complains and his earth not solving the issue, I applied for a touch button from Sorotec in Which they sent me another spare touch button.
When the spare part came I called him to send his inverter, this man didn't send the inverter becos he can't afford to be in the dark for 2 days. I then sent him the spare part to fix it in Benin since he doesn't want to send it to Lagos cos he doesn't have a spare he can use.
This man didn't install the spare part I sent him only for him to call me after some months (I can't remember exactly ) that the inverter packed up. He has blown the MOSFETs and igbt. I told him we don't tend to MOSFETs and igbt as under warranty but he should send it. He sent it back with the spare part he didn't fix. I told him if he had fixed this thing, the touch button won't press itself and scatter his settings. I fixed this inverter with over 70k and sent it back to him and the touch button problem was solved and he also reduced his charging voltage wch solved the bus over voltage error. He is someone I know for a while, so it's not a big deal for me to spend that amount on some1 I thought was a friend.

So What else do you want from me or Sorotec.
Why the bad pr. Several people use Sorotec without issues.
Some people are just hell bent on talking bad to someone because they believe customers is always right. They would never accept their fault simply becos they are customers. This need to stop. Stop the blackmail.
Just today u r telling me I cheated u on a cable 5yrs ago that u didn't just want to say anything. How does that make sense. 5yrs ago

I read that the iPhone 15 has a feature that limits battery to just 80% to prolong the life of the battery. I thought this was bad practice years ago, has this changed? If so, can we adapt it to renewable energy?

Lol really. Iphone 15. This apple always lagging behind Samsung always.

Besides I already know the solution, however I was look for an already made system that can work independently with a preset voltage level.....

I was thinking of coming up with a simple analog comparator circuit, to notify the user when it has gotten to 24.5v

But enjoyment too sweet they fit ignore am, so I wanted a cutoff system instead of a notification system.

Dem go ignore am o. Enjoyment swt

Obnoxious2001:
You where making sense until your closing remark.

That inverter you dey try inform me about I no go buy am from you .

I go buy am from who no put him problem ontop him Market...

Pax vobiscum

No vex

incogni2o:
are you saying all inverters are equipped with that feature.

I guess the inverter i had should have same feature, but the voltage range didn't sync properly.

could also be that the battery already protected itself before the inverter did

Not all transformer based inverters come with the lvd feature. Only comes with hybrid inverters

Please I need suggestions and opinion.

I have this 24v 5.12kw blue carbon lithium battery, that has been drained. The problem now is it has refused to come up.

I have tried using nepa to charge via the inverter , it not waking up, the solar panels too is not working as well...

How do I solve this problem?
Am thing of using an external 24v automatic low voltage disconnect switch to prevent further occurrence in the future, but I have no idea if such system is available.

Beside the inverter is a transformer based hybrid inverter with 100mppt controller.

I can't send image Now because of nairaland palava.

Senior men please come to my aid

Buy a hybrid or transformer based inverter with a low voltage disconnect (lvd).
I have transformer based inverter with lvd that can work for lithium.
It's on the list on my advert but u won't see it.
U rather buy what u like and cause problems then come online to ask for solutions.

Same people would not load a 5kVA generator up to 2kw because the generator can scream.

That's the irony of this thing. Very funny beings.

samir101ng:
There was some wisdom in the plenty english nah. No inverter subjected to temperature can do PF 1. Just because the chinese no name brands don't put in their inverters doesn't mean that they don't derate. As the temperature rises in the inverters operating environment and under load, it will derate its output. There is always a loss in the energy conversion of DC to AC. The law of physics is universal. It happens to all inverters. But Victron is being more open by telling you exactly how and at what temperatures it is able to output its capacity. The issue i guess was you making Victron to look like the only inverter that derates its ouput instead of aspiring it as a normal convention that applies to all inverters and not just victron.

Like I said we are all saying thing. I never made victron look like the only inverter that can't do PF of 1. Infact all them can't do PF of 1, I was jst saying on behalf of local consumers. I know the kind of people I deal with locally. I kid you not they will buy it for this sole purpose and load steady 4.95kw, they will also come here to complain blablabla.

NiyiOmoIyunade:
All power electronics derate for temperature and this has nothing to do with the power factor.

So you may have an Asian origin inverter where the maker fails to publish the temperature derate curves but the fact of physics remains and cannot be escaped.

For a practical example and as a guide to understanding the internals, the 5kva Victron actually has a ~5kw rated transformer in it -
the manufacturer expects you to load a max of 4kw at 25 degree C however there is a 30% overload (for up to 30 minutes) ability built in.

This overload capacity is there for trained installers to understand and use (not abuse ) properly and is one of the reasons behind the very positive field reviews and testimonials of the robustness of the Victron units.

As a point of fact, per design, the units will shut down in case of over-temperature in the internals long before an actual electrical overload occurs.

I hope this puts paid to any fears.

You are still saying the same thing I'm saying but with plenty English.

You can't do continuous 5kw. Hence pf is not 1. There are conditions to it. People need to know so they don't go with the mindset of doing 5kw on 5kw. Hope u get

Sol-Ark is an American Patented version of Deye China. Victron is Victron Worldwide.

Sol-Ark is a Transformerless Hybrid Inverter, Victron is mostly a Transformer Based Inverter but has shifted from conventional transformers to Toroidal Transformers in the recent years.

Both Inverters are strong and reliable but I would choose Victron over Sol-Ark.

Power Rating:
Victron Power Factor is 1:1 for both Battery and Mains Power Inversion.
Sol-Ark Power Factor (for some models) is 1:0.8 for Battery Power Inversion and 1:1 Mains Power Inversion. Meaning that if you have a 15KW Sol-Ark, on battery you can only get 12KW total load. Load it more than 12KW is triggers over current alarm and shuts off for a few minutes.

I haven't experienced this with Victron though.

And the list of their differences continues.

Is that your reason for choosing the victron.
Do you know victron's output derate with respect to temperature. The power factor is not 1.
I will choose the victron also for other reasons.

casualobserver:
you are sounding like a customer of yours who after showing him the back panel is still arguing that the panel should generate 500w. Think of how such a person would sound to you and how you would be looking at such a person in your mind, unfortunately thats exactly how you are looking right now. You can only enlighten someone who wants to be enlightened. Someone who wants to argue will continue to find something to argue. I only responded to your posts because i follow you as I have a passing interest in Solar and i have learnt a thing or two from you. if you dont want to learn from me in return, it's ok. I have said all i need to say In such a circumstance, and have nothing more to say.

Ok o. I hear you sir

casualobserver:
clearly you do not want to educate yourself.


you say it is clear, in the same way as your customers do not read the fine print where things like STC are listed and therefore approach things from a layman's point of view, so also you are doing the same thing. Have you read the constitution, have you studied law to understand the principles of law and how to interprete laws that you now feel you are qualified to talk based on 1 item in the constitution?

Several times I have refered you to section 42(1)b that is the law equivalent of the fine print where things like the STc is written...have you bothered to read it?

section 42 of the constitution. (rights of citizens)

1) A citizen of Nigeria of a particular community, ethnic group, place of origin, sex, religion or political opinion shall not, by reason only that he is such a person:-
(a) be subjected either expressly by, or in the practical application of, any law in force in Nigeria or any executive or administrative action of the government, to disabilities or restrictions to which citizens of Nigeria of other communities, ethnic groups, places of origin, sex, religions or political opinions are not made subject; or
(b) be accorded either expressly by, or in the practical application of, any law in force in Nigeria or any such executive or administrative action, any privilege or advantage that is not accorded to citizens of Nigeria of other communities, ethnic groups, places of origin, sex, religions or political opinions.

When your customer comes to you and you tell him to read the fine print, above is the fine print of the law. Even if a law is enacted that says gives a community a privilege over another, section 42 says that law is invalid..i am sure you can read and understand English. Section 42 is about the rights of citizens, the earlier a law appears in the constitution the more powerful it is because it is the foundation for other laws. thats why things like what is Nigeria, how many states, rights of citizens etc etc appear early in the constitution...they are fundamental to the constitution. The rights of citizens supersedes anything else.

I have told you many times, you are not in ANY position to comment authoritatively on the law. Your emotions are getting the better of you.

The still doesn't validate this argument except Abuja is a state like any other state. They have their governor, senators, HOA etc. They should be entitled to this thing. The president is not their governor. That gives them undue advantage.
Let me just summarize what I'm saying. I'm saying another judge can give opposite judgement validating mandatory 25 percent in abuja and we will still have this argument where some are for it and others are against it. The funny thing is they would both be right.
Let this thing be written down correctly in the constitution. That's all I'm saying. Don't stress us becos we are not lawyers or judges. We also have the right to understand the law in plain English or don't we need to understand the rules we follow?

casualobserver:
What I am saying is it is pointless arguing over our opinions of the law, you think it means a candidate must get 25% in FCT, I think that is not what the law says. Our positions are opinions. Neither of us are qualified to parade our opinions and thoughts as fact. It is for the court to determine what is the law,.....not you, not me!

There is a reason why there are courts and why you can appeal a ruling. You ask me how does it sound? Laws and courts are there for a reason. Anarchy is when citizens do not respect the rule of law and feel only their interpretation of events and the law is right. Nobody ever said anywhere that Abuja is a state, if you can find anywhere where any law or court has said Abuja is a state please feel free to show me. The law says in the practical application of the law it should be treated “like” a state. Except one is not properly grounded in English, a basic understanding of English will tell you that to be like something is not the same as being that thing. “He is like my son” does not mean “he is my son”…..English!!! Treat him like my son does not mean he is my son…..English!!! If he were my son, I wouldn’t have or need to say” like”. Again these are opinions, the court will interprete and make a judgement.

In your house you are head of the house. If your kids are fighting and you deliver a judgement, more often than not it will not please one child but if the other child refuses to accept your ruling, the. You will have anarchy in your house. You are the head of your family because your word is final. The minute your children do not accept your authority, your in your family and hence your family is finished. In a football match, 2 of us will sit side by side and see different things, one says its a penalty, the other is adamant it is not....that is why we have referees and the referees verdict is final..the minute the referees has no authority, the game of football is finished. it is not my opinion or yours that matters but that of the referee. It is similar with the court system......the Supreme Court is right not because it is right but because it is final. If you cannot accept that principle you do not deserve democracy or understand the rule of law.

PS: read section 42(1)b of the constitution.

In engineering it is very clear. It would be written under STC (standard test conditions).
It would also be written factors that can affect output for each engineering designs. It is very clear.
The rules for the governorship election was clear. All local govt. There was no "but", "and", "or" in any statement. So why complicate the statement of the law such a way anyone can give it's own meaning including lawyers and judges. That's my point in the whole thing.
IMO I feel it was done intentionally.

DeepSight:
It is nothing but sheer absurdity to ask for a rerun if one candidate wins 100 per cent of all 36 states and fails to get 25 per cent in Abuja and the law avoids absurdities. Furthermore it amounts to giving the people resident in Abuja an undemocratic veto power over the rest of the population.

It's sheer absurdity, why was it there in the 1st place and not talked about until now. The reason is it was put there intentionally and now it backfired. Who do we blame.

casualobserver:
Does it? There is a difference between what the law says, what you think the law says and what you want the law to say.

What the law says can only be interpreted by the court.

What you think the law says is based on your knowledge, common sense, objectivity , the more knowledgeable and objective you are, the closer you are to the facts. What anyone thinks the law says is their opinion not fact.

Thirdly what you want the law to say, this is based purely on how you want the interpretation of the law to favour you.

Like you saw the law is the law, the only people qualified to interprete the law are judges, everything else is just opinion…..and you know what they say about opinions……


The problem is lay men, many not properly educated, enlightened, intelligent and most certainly having no legal education or even read the relevant provisions of the law, giving their opinion as fact!

In any even if the courts make the interpretation that 25% is required in Abuja, the rerun will be between the person who came 1st and the person who came 2nd, since the person who came 3rd did not challenge the person who came 2nd and made no attempt to prove he came 1st.

What you are trying to say is only the judge can interpret the law and that's final. Different judge can interpret the law however they like resulting into different outcomes. Judge A says 25percent is not valid in 2023 and judge B says 25 percent is now valid in 2027. However we should take it like that cos it's not our duty to interpret the law. How does that sounds.
The law is the law, u might not like it and also you can't change it whether u like it or not.
All of a sudden Abuja becomes a state like every other state. No governor, no senator. Some states are more privileged than the other to have govenors and senators. There's no way you want to twist this thing, the law made Abuja special. If u don't like it then rewrite the constitution.

Righthussle:
I am totally against giving special status to FCT. In our various states, I want to ask, Is it a must to score 25% of the votes in the capital to become governor? Come on, make una dey calm down na.

Let me state it here before you mention me to ask whether Abuja is special.

Yes, Abuja doesn't have a governor. I know Abuja is special but to what extent is it special. The tribunal just made us to understand that when it comes to VOTES, Abuja isn't special. Just as it is not a must to score 25% of votes cast in any particular state to win the presidential election, it is not a must to score 25% of votes cast in Abuja to win the presidential election.

The law says otherwise. If we all start to screen everything the laws says then we will have no law to follow. Many things are wrong but the law is the law.
For example a the law just asked car owners to pay for proof of ownership certificate, car that u cleared and have more than 6 documents on to prove u r d owner. It doesn't make sense but the law is the law. Until we change the law notin can b done.

Simple question
Phone you got for 150 last 2 years after using till date will you still sell for 150k because dollar is rising?

There are some items that commands value such as car, house etc.
Phones don't command any value once a newer and better model rolls out simply because they become outdated.
Your fone and electronics becomes outdated both in functions and aesthetics when a newer model comes out. Your old fone won't get updates, it won't work with some apps, the camera would be outdated, the functions would be outdated such that there won't be demand for it again. Once the demand is low the prices fall (basic economics). Take example of your led tv and smart tv. Ordinary Led price will fall becos people would demand smart tv. Once they roll out smart tv that support apple air play, the ordinary smart tv price will fall if there is no demand.
Cars are different ball game, the demand is high, even a condemned car have value . They will pieces it part by part and still make money. Its like comparing crude oil with coal. Both are useful but not on the same level. U can make money from crude in so many ways therefore demand is high and price will not fall. Finally they are backed by the dollar. Low value means small dollar value and low naira, high value means high or moderate dollar value and very high naira cos of exchange rate.

Omo, I don explain tire boss
Saying someone is "greedy" just because he's trying to get current market value (worth) for an item he bought is mind boggling .
If he were over valuing it, yes, that's being greedy, and it'll likely not get sold, but if its selling for around current market value you can't label him greedy.
Also if the item has lost it value, it will definitely be sold cheaper, it goes both ways. Basic economics, happens everywhere, e reach your turn you say “Nigerians Greedy” like say you don explore the other countries come back .
You buy gold/diamond necklace, you use for 5 years "it appreciates".
You need cash and decide to go back to the store to sell it, will you sell to them at the same price you got it 5 years ago because you're not greedy ?
It’s not greed, it’s economics.

Using his illustration " he wants people to sell the car they got for 2 million in 2019, for that same 2 million in 2023, but little does he know;
If the guy that bought the same car for 2million naira in 2019 had the same thought process,he wouldn't have gotten it, because he'll be expecting people that got the car for 900k in 2015, to sell for 900k in 2019.
He also mentioned something " he said if he goes to buy car and ask for the original receipt of the car and he'll be 100% sure it'll be like 2 million while the dealer would be asking for like 3 million" but little does he know original receipt can never be in Naira (eBay, copart, auctionexport, etc) all in dollars.
Now if the dealer asked to you to bring half of the initial purchase amount which is in dollars, you'll spend more naira sourcing for the dollars.
The whole argument is baseless and doesn't hold water.
Like that guy said, just pure emotions, no logic or form of economic reasoning.

We greedy, be say we greedy, same thing played out barely 24 hours after tinubu announced the removal of fuel subsidy, ona sell old stock 3x the initial amount because ona dey find money to buy new stock. Ona greedy be say ona greedy.



You but phone 1m 1yeas later you still wan sell the phone 1m, because dollar duh high, na so.


Last time i check na only land nor dey depreciate.



Motor when you duh use for 9ja road for good 4years, nawa.

When you start running a business, u will understand. Untill then enjoy...

I get your point boss
But the white man does not need your Nigerian naira, the Toyota wasn’t initially bought with naira because the Toyota was not made in Nigeria hence has it has a $ value attached to it.
It was bought with dollar initially and shipped here oga.
He’s selling for a lower $ value, but it doesn’t seem so, cause your Naira has lost value.
If everyone was selling at the naira price they got it for, you would have gotten a car since na, and won’t come here to complain.
Or you think people are crazy buying a used car that sold for 1.5m then for 3m now?
If care is not taken it’ll keep increasing.
Even the car you're asking to buy 1.7 million now was being sold for 900k before.
As for household items that have been used, yes
Those ones are greedy normal, but for cars, quite different,
Since most Nigerians see cars as an achievement, it’ll always hold value.
But I must admit the greedy ones are the one adding customs value to a Nigerian used car, they increase price because price of clearing has increased.

If only more people could channel this frustration to the government, we won’t be complaining about this.

Imagine it this way.
You bought a 2005 Camry for 2m Thinking you will use for 1yr or 2 and add maybe 1.5m to buy Camry 2009 that's valued 3m to 3.5m.
After 2yrs dollar increased and you are ready to upgrade but the value of the 09 Camry is now 5m. You think you will sell 1.5m and add 3.5m to buy your Camry 09? Not possible .
