PAPAFEELERS: 25mm 4-core armoured should be enough since it's a 5bedroom duplex. Also the distance of the feeder pillar to your house is unknown. We need to consider voltage drop |

Hmnn. Some things are better experienced to be believed. I was skeptical about this dog issue until I saw it done at two sites. One is my aunt and the other a customer. The both buried DEAD dogs and have not experienced termites once. It's been over 6 years now and counting And I am talking about very serious termite problem not the occatonal challenge. Maybe there is a chemical that seeps into the soil from the dead dog that is offensive to the termites. Also yet to be explained is why termites don't eat/attack planks made from palm trees. I had to use palm boards on the smal flat I built in my father's compound on account of the above before I heard about the "dog-effect". I also realised termites have somewhat disappeared from the area but I am still observing. Building was roofed in 2008 or thereabout. As of 2010 I was raising poultry there but I know I abandoned the place after roofing for some 2 or 3 years before using it for poultry 2 Likes |

kopell: @ dioedaves, and kopell. At times, education does not explain some things sir. Are you saying your 21st century education will make you believe there are no witches and wizards, jazz, etc? Come to my place(Ijebu Igbo, ogun state) and you will believe. No disrespect meant pls 7 Likes |

Pls can I have the idea of roofing cost(wood only) to roof a 45 by 24 structure. It has a shootout of 10 by 6. Measurement is in feet pls. Thank you. Incidentally, does anyone know any inverter repairer in Lagos/ogun state axis that will not use my inverter as "scapegoat"? If yes, phone number/ address pls. Thanks |

michlins: Lol. True? Will "bulletproof" be counted as paranormal? And my brother has experienced tree jinn called out for him by a 21 year old boy. I wasn't there though. He was in the place for IT. That was in 1991 |

michlins: Some things are better left unsaid. Voodoo/jazz is real. Those of us in village see it real. If there is no paranormal because of "education", how did the term necromancer come to be. Or is it an African word? Have you heard of someone being "summoned" home from abroad because he has stayed too long. When you knot tie for long, you tend to disbelieve some things. No need to go abroad. Come to Ijebu Igbo and I will introduce you to some people. You will come back here to give testimony. Lol 1 Like |

Jasobry:Congratulations sir. It's advisable to have another alternate source of power to complement the solar system and include it in the planning. I wish I could advise on the wind turbine from personal experience but the guy that did my wind turbine couldn't get it to work even though it has been mounted. Raining season would make solar charging very slow with the battery draining to very low level that won't make it last except you want to use phcn or generator to be complementing it. |

olaolu11: The problem with most of us is we believe in oyinbo bullsh*t. That’s why all we do is copy copy. _________ On this thread alone, we’ve got more than 5 testifiers and we’re still dragging the nonsense. Just do a search on this, there are over 30 testifiers on a single thread on another nairaland page? We think those people are stupid or not smart? Or haven’t tried other solutions? Or they’re asking anyone for money? Can anyone who has ever used snipper or any of the useless chemical combination that contaminate our soil/water tell us if it has ever stopped termites? _________ I think the way these things work is that the termite king/queen has preference. The workers always go for his/her first choice/order in any given situation. They’ll attack your wood when they run out of stock. Call it superstition. It worked like magic for me and I never had to expose myself or anyone around me to hazardous chemicals while trying to exterminate pests/insects. It’s a free gift. Thrash it if you don’t want it. 3 Likes |

bobkezel:The charge controller on the turbine isn't charging although the turbine supplies voltage. I'm suspecting the technician didn't get the connection well. We both thought the three wires from the turbine was live, neutral and earth instead of three phase and he used a two wire cable with a kind of aluminum shield and he used that as the third connection. I will get that sorted hopefully in the coming days if the turbine isn't damaged already. My observation so far, wind system can't be used alone. The wind isn't constant. Although it would be charging all through at intervals. Some times fast, sometimes slow and other times not charging but overall charges would be supplied. It would also work during rain and at night. My premise is based on the movement of the blade. Solar too doesn't charge consistently too though. It rises and drops even on sunny days but the main thing is that the cumulative supply charges the battery fully. |

gbadexy: Smiles. What if I tell you those guys at arena aren’t always legit? It’s always a 50-50 probability. Here’s what I do though when any of my device/equipment fail, I keep them in store till someone come to pick up for free; go for a swap deal; pawn it for few nairas; give it to the kids for their experimental projects. I don’t bother myself with back and forth cos I value my mental health and I don’t want to slump and die chasing mad folks. One of my client here has a similar experience with a circular saw purchased from Arena. He did it my way - count his loss, bought a new machine and moved on. This doesn’t mean there are no legit guys at Arena o! |

n3xt:I can relate at the bolded. I appreciate peace of mind when I sold a bus I gave a driver to use for transport. I try to put closure and move on quick. Life is complicated already. If you don't want to go to arena for repairs, you could swap on negotiation like you earlier suggested. I did that also with my supplier there. I doubt an inverter can be repaired elsewhere if those guys at arena couldn't fix it though. |
