Well, I just generated my own electricity using a regular fan motor by spinning the rotor by hand and watching it churn out some voltage.Put differently, I just turned the motor into a generator by reversing the process.Just needed to post this because in the coming months I hope to really do without PHCN. Today's old appliances tear down to get the necessary parts needed to build by myself a wind turbine went well.A voltage stabilizer...
I installed just this morning an imported made in India 3.6kva 48vdc inverter for a client and realized that the charging current was just 11 amps as clearly stated on the inverter manual.I have written severally about most of these inverters from China and India being manufactured using design assumptions that make sense in those countries but don't make sense in Nigeria.Now, the typical battery capacity we use in Nigeria is a 12V 200Ah deep cycle...
The costs of solar panels are a lot more affordable than they were a couple of years ago.But watch out for substandard solar panels, charge controllers, deep cycle batteries, power inverters and of course inexperienced and/or incompetent alternative energy service providers.Any of the listed stuff above could make your investment or project fail.They must all work together well enough for you to enjoy the many benefits of generating your own electricity or better still augmenting whatever...
A loud sound plus thick smoke coming from the freezer power cord area disrupted a quiet even 2 days ago and when I switched off the socket and cut the power cord at the section that was the warmest I noticed a very disturbing problem.At different sections along the power cord the live wire, the neutral and the earth wire have basically become dust. The wires must have gradually expired in my opinion since that is...
Pay attention to this. Nearly back to normal with crude selling at over $50 per barrel is not small money ooo so let us stop believing that we are not getting money from crude sales.Customs and FIRS are still generating billions for Nigeria apart from your 50k per transaction stamp duty charges. We must keep asking questions because the revenue belongs to Nigeria not the politicians. ------------------------------------ Nigeria’s oil production nearly back to normal: Minister...
Generating electricity is actually a simple process and all the coal does is to provide energy that is used to generate steam and because coal burns slowly it is preferred world wide which explains why countries like the US, Germany, China, Russia, Japan, India, South Africa do not joke with coal fired power plants for their electricity generation.The future of Nigeria is at stake here and he should ignore these Western powers that are masters of...

The Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) and the Nigerian Energy Support Programme (NESP) have created a strategic action to improve energy efficiency of equipment used in residential and public buildings in Nigeria. The acting Director-General of SON, Dr. Paul Angya, said that the agency will facilitate access to information for consultants, set up and support the technical committee for air condition standards and labels that will support the promotion and creation of awareness in the country....
This simply shows that APC is confused.How can importation of refined petroleum be cheaper than locally refined one considering all the associated administrative and import/export plus transportation and storage costs involved?This does not make any sense at all.Put differently, perish the idea of local refineries and prepare for increased pump price without any end in sight.May be God is just trying to teach us a very hard lesson for preferring lies, misinformation and propaganda to the...
