I missed that news. That's great but I pity the loss of profits that will result from exchange rate differentials for Starlink

otis54:

Already in the news last month that Starlink has suspended the price increase for now

So, did Starlink step down on the new charges? I received a mail that I am due to pay 38k instead of the expected 75k.

I sprinted to my browser and the payment went through surprisingly?

Has anyone paid 75k or it's not taking effect today?

Will never be me Sha. Quality is far superior and justify the investnent

Challspace:


I don’t know why, but this comment is very funny. 🤣🤣😭😭

This is the way to go, I don't know why people don't listen or consider this. Pair Starlink with a 3rd party router and look for 3 or 5 neigbors or next compound that can pay 10 to 15k per month to reduce the fees you pay is commonsense.

This is the way to go now rather than going back to spending 20 to 25k per month for Nigerian network providersbwith their piss-porr service

Sapiosexuality:
Why not sell subscriptions to your neighbours that way you can easily pay the 75k?

Who are you on the table?

Salewa97:
The situation is getting better. By the weekend, everything should be normalized.

The government are also serious about the fuel scarcity which is a good thing

I can install for you and set up your 3rd party router if desired

GiggsTk:
Who has an installer in Lagos?

This is the Schematic of my powerboard, an automatic changeover and a DC Circuit breaker needs to go in in the future.

Guys, we can also use this setup and modify it to do more. I am open to suggestions.

Theflint1:
Yea, I think I get your schematic...I did something similar myself (ACs run only on grid), but couldn't take the risk of disconnecting refrigerator permanently since I'm not fully off-grid (no s), so it's still safer leaving that option of powering refrigerator via inverter for when electricity is really poor and need keep refrigerator cool with small power from inverter...also I like some power from inverter spilling into refrigerator, even if for like an hour or two before I put the refrigerator off.

Don't know why I haven't explored Firestick (maybe cause I don't watch TV much these days)...but if it's not too expensive, maybe I can explore it for the fun...07031562o14...that's my number.

Bros it has not since 2019 oo, out of about 10 people I installed solar system for using this 2kv inverter, its only one that had problem with it.

The lower 1kv and 500 which doesnt have regulating fans are quite awful though.

ajabani4allah:


Bro, that inverter is not strong enough to tolerate leaving it 24/7 on, it will spoil in no time. Get PSW sachet inverter for this

This exactly is the answer to the 5G v. Starlink argument.

Yes, Mtn and Airtel 5G can give out speeds of 150 to 250mbps but atbwhat cost? Starlink Standard plan fornthe same speed range is unlimited whereas for this 4TB you would have had to shell out close to 400k for MTN rather than 38k

RomeoMarvis:

I'm using it, and my lowest monthly usage is 4TB...
Though I'm not the only one using it. I didn't it, since it's unlimited, why not let others connect?
Last month was 6TB, while I resubscribe on the 19th of August (4 days ago) and it's already at 460+GB

EduTechTainMent:


Which router did you buy? Pls share

Lol, when Potatosalad never collect

ibawon:
sonickay and Theflint1 are the real Sodiqiiiii. They Starlink don suppose give una award of excellence.

Well, I this one appears to be over strong. I have been using this inverter for extended period of time on a daily basis since 2019, now on Starlink for 12hrs+ per day for over 3months and waiting for it to spoil cos i dont believe in finixing something if it snt broken.

Btw, do you have used PSW Inveeter for sale?

ajabani4allah:

Thats a bit steep bro and close to the price of those on the market. I can build it if you could sell me the components and share a schematic with me as I have the hands-on experience to soldier and use vero boards

Obnoxious2001:


When do you want it done. It should cost around 20k to add that feature to the inverter.

Are you all interested in who the Directors and Shareholders of Aradel are or you just want to be at each other's throats?

Give me your price bros

ebab:

For a note 10 with bad screen.

You try

I have an external charger connected to a socket linked to permanently to grid. When I am going out, I change over to inverter while the external the charger plugged in to grid to charge the inverter.

I will like setup to switch back and forth whenever there is grid power.

I am in Lagos

Obnoxious2001:

I can build an automatic change over for you. It will transfer load,put of the inverter and activate your charger (that's of if you have an external charger)

Your location?

suoer2kv modified sine wave

Obnoxious2001:



What kind of inverter are you using?

150k

ebab:
how much

Hello Bro,

I have a setup already but I had to leave my inverter on 24/7 to power starlink when I am not home to manually change to grid power.

Can you tell me what I need or supply the items necessary to build an automatic changeover and integrate it with my existing changeover?

Valto:
so i wired a changeover between inverter and charger/utility, so that once utility becomes available, the output socket switches over from inverter to utility.
items used
4pcs of eve 100ah cells
120A JBD BLUETOOTH BMS
12V 1600w (800W continious power) pure sine wave sachet inverter
12v 20A dedicated lifepo4 lithium battery charger
10A relay

work to be completed tomorrow

I have Note 10+ 256Gig memory with pen, every other thing is fine but half the screen is bad/black

What is your WhatsApp number. The one on your profile doesn’t work

Curdlebug:


Come whatsapp

Lol, if you now use Amazon Firestick and put it on steroids, you may not even smell sleep again

The intial cost looked like a monster but my mtn sub is now a measly max of 3.5k per month for when I am not home, it is the best invetsement for people who do mathematics, the setup can pay for itself in 2yrs if you have more s sef.

That's the next headache o, what I have done is to split Disco power to permanently power Refrigerator and a socket to plug in charger for the batteries. So, when I am not home, the Refrigerator and battery charger are powered by Disco supply if there is power supply.

On the reverse side, the inverter is powered on to the house and supplies Starlink when I am away allowing it to self-charge with power supply and solar (whichever is available). It is only when I return that I switch to Disco supply.

I can share my schematics with you.

Theflint1:
Likeeee... I didn't even savings on cableTV, where I used to sub dstv compact to watch epl, I now rely on Internet, for free and all access.

It's the best investment I made in a while, and to think it all started from getting a starlink... I don't have s yet sef, but grid is decent enough to have uninterrupted power round the clock. What I'd look to do soon is maybe make the system smart so it switches to inverter as soon as batteries are full, then back to grid for recharge when the power on batteries drops up to a certain level.

I need Note 10 plus screen too, who has here? and how much

treasureibk:
Please anyone with m52 board and note 10 plus screen

Can we deal for 450k?

430k?

You dig, leaving it powered 24/7 enabled me to make 35k monthly from charging 4 neigbours. I saved a lot in costs on internet, Cable TV sub, music streaming, and power costs. My only major spending is on electricity supply from Disco every 2months to simultaneuosly charge my batteries which will even go down during dry season when the sun is far better

People should do what works for them but dont downgrade Starlink with their 5G and mobility talks. Running this setup within a compound is cost-effective on a small-scale even for a 9-5 person like me. It becomes interesting knowing the endless possibilites it presents, imagine a setup for a street where people appreciate and need internet, you can even spend 500k to install Ubiquity Ubeams and Nanostations which travels for least of 5kms and charge s top money for it at a great ROI

Theflint1:
Lol, smart, that's what I'm doing myself...got the router when it was around 65K, one of my neighbors is a network engineer, so he helped with the networking...charge my neighbors 30K per month for Internet Access, plus what I save on fuel, the setup saves me like 60K per month, not to mention the cost of round the clock electricity and unlimited internet for the FAM.

Initial cost is heavy, but given the massive increase in quality of life, it's a solid investment.

This guy, I barely cross 1TB on my starlink, always 800gig+ mostly cos I barely use it though

I need to DM you about something if you dont mind

PotatoSalad:

I used 16TB last month. No throttling

Wo baba, you sabi ball oo. I had to upgrade my inverter system with almost 400k after I bought Starlink to keep it running 24/7 without interruption. To share it with neigbors, a router of 120k. When it came to broadcasting to four house, Ubiquity said 230k for each access point mesh, i just disembarked jeje.

If I didnt have an existing system, I would have had to spend money on solar s, weather-proof solar cables, charge controller, batteries and inverter. running into minimum of 1.5m.

If you dont have steady power supply or plan to buy inverter or have a solar system, Starlink is not for you as power availability will speedily become a major headache for you

Theflint1:
Welcome on board, the natural progression post starlink is an inverter setup...your go hear am

Buy a router for the future, Ax71 is great. AX75 is superb too, check page 77 for an offer

siRememovicTM:
Greetings everyone,

This thread has been super helpful, I've read everything from page 1-77 before buying and setting up my starlink successfully in Calabar. The speed here is quite impressive. Averaging between 100mbps and 230mbps.


Abeg make una drop any Nigerian store link apart from amazon weh I fit buy very sharp US router wey get 5ghz wifi with better range than this starlink router. I no wan make the mistake of buying the EU version.

My Samsung and other device de hardly connect to am. And I dey lodge wey plenty people de interested to for a token but the starlink router range no too strong to go round.


Thank you all for your contributions.

I see you are back from Google.com, it may interest you to know that Listeriosis is commonly referred to as "Circling Disease" cos the most noticeable symptom of the disease is manifested when the affected animal starts circling around.

kath6:
Listeriosis is a serious infection usually caused by eating food contaminated with the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. An estimated 1,600 people get listeriosis each year, and about 260 die.
How does it correlate with circling disease?

Doing away from the ignorant or witty comments in this thread, the Turkey is not hungry or seeing a reflection or looking for mates. The turkey is suffering from Listeriosis (Circling Disease).

At this point it will circle around until it’s exhausted and dies as it’s a neurological disease like a sort of virus hacking into its brain to continue circling around nonstop.

Dr. Dan Bello is corrupt cos of this video? I hope you report him to the Chinese government or the school where he teaches very soon sha with your legendary skull
