Programmers, How Do You Solve Power Issue by dauddy97(m): 3:31pm On May 27, 2022
Greetings,

I'm a data professional and I work currently as an online tutor. In fact, power is one of the challenge I'm seriously having. Fueling the gen everyday isn't even bad but, when you it get spoilt and the NEPA isn't reliable. How do I solve this power Issue permanently.

I have tried getting a power Bank for laptop. But, due to my laptop capacity with the charge rate of 180w. I was told, I can't get something currently in the market now.

Pls, software engineers, freelancers and other profession who can't do without electricity. How do you solve your power issue. I will appreciate ever input and suggestions to this situation.
Thanks

Invest in Solar o! Invest in Solar! Buy very good panels and top quality batteries. You will not regret it. NEPA refused to give me regular meter talkless if pre-paid. They wan use estimated bill finish my life. I refused to pay. They cut my light first week in November. From then until now I have not spent a dime on NEPA. Solar was wonderful during the dry season. 24/7 electricity no blinking. Rainy season is some how bad with reduced sun. But I still get 14-16hrs electricity. Run gen 4 hours at night to top up inverter. Inverter go last until 7am for morning when daylight go don dey. Looking to increase my panels and batteries.

I just need at least 7 to 10hours. I'm okay.

My use case won't match with yours as I live in a 3 bedroom flat and needed the inverter/solar setup to be sized to carry a fridge and freezer. But there are a few plugs on NL here that can advise you

Lenovo X Series laptop x240/x250/x260 comes with an inbuilt battery and has option for 2 external batteries - a 3 cell which can give you 6 to 8 hours, the 6 cell which can give you 15 to 20 hours. Just buy as many 6 cell batteries as you can - this may be cheaper than getting a battery and inverter

Option 2 get an inverter like Schneider 850VA or 1500VA depending on your pocket - the 850VA uses 1 battery, the 1500VA uses 2 batteries. If you get a 12V 200AH battery and dedicate it to just lighting and your laptop you should be able to squeeze 3 to 4 days of standby time. This option maybe more expensive. The inverter goes for between 80 and 100 thousand. The battery goes for around 160 thousand if you get an Amaron and around 280 thousand if you get a Deka battery.

Or get a generator

Whatever you do think in terms of business continuity - what if there is no NEPA to charge your inverter batteries for days on end? You may need to either get solar panels or get a generator as a backup

please what specification of solar would you suggest one goes for, if he needs it to power his fridge, pump, TV and fan? And please how much do you think the price would be?

Remove pump. The draw from pumping machine is too inefficient. Use rechargeable fan. Is your fridge inverter fridge?
