    Solar power : Final Feedback and review

    Last year I posted here searching for advice on solar installation. I got very useful tips on which are reliable brands, the size, type etc. I settled on Felicity solar and went ahead to install a 10 kva battery, 8 solar panels with an output of 555v and a 5 kva inverter. It cost me 630k...

    Bob Collymore Kiosk Mentality

    Let's take Luthuli as an example. What is the alternative here? Do you think one electronics or phone shop is enough to service everyone? Don't you think this is the opposite of monopoly and is actually good for the consumer's pocket? As a buyer, do you want to walk for kilometers as you look...

Ukraine army during the beginning of their failed counter offensive in summer drove 10s of tanks across fields full of mines with the express advice of Americans.

    Ukraine - Russia War 2 years on

    It seems you have been consuming a lot of pro ukrainian blogs who paint russian Army as inept, indisciplined and drunk on whisky even on the battle front. The truth is if you are attacking a well defended town city or territory, the odds are always stacked against you. There is no formula of...

    This is the quote. I haven't committed yet. I will definitely take your advice seriously. I have told them to reduce the panels to 4 and change to the low frequency inverter. Thanks so much.

    I missed that one, but I will use it sparingly until I am in the position to get the low frequency one as I understand its 180k. Ama kuna more affordable ones?

    Thanks everyone so far for your useful tips on solar. I have been up and down hunting for a reputable solar brand as suggested by listers. I checked on Victron and almost fainted. That one is out of my price range for now. I settled on Felicity solar, tracked it down in Nyamakima and got the...
