Lol I have not had power for over two days now. I have been running on my generator. I am going to get a huge power bank today because I cannot afford to continue buying gasoline at this price.

Which means you use to have power before. Over here its 85% generator power. We dont just expect power more than once or twice in a week. Its that bad.
Okay that is horrible. How do you cope. If I were in your shoes I would have switched to renewable energy because I can't imagine buying fuel at this price for domestic use
Its really terrible. No much choice. I wish that solar installations are not that expensive.
I think currently buying petrol is more expensive. Plus you still have to pay power bills. If there is a way to pay in installments for lithium battery I think you should explore that.
Maybe I will try it. How does it work. Lithium battery, you mean car battery right? How much is the cost and sustainable is it? I could consider doing it
Lithium batteries for inverter. With 200k you should get a decent setup to start with and you can upgrade over time. Although expensive it is worth it
Ok. Will have to plan for it. We need alternative energy sources. The main grid is always a faiure
Is it cheaper to have a power bank over a generator?
Right now yes.
A power bank cost about 20,000 naira and it would last for atleast a year
To power my generator for two weeks would cost 20,000naira
My light bill is around 20,000 a month
Minimum wage is around 35,000 naira
That sounds pretty good. Wouldn't it also cost you some electricity, but I see the point and it is cheaper than a generator.
The electricity cost is quite insignificant. The batteries are around 27000MaH, and it can charge my phone 3-4 times.
Working off your phone? I can't seem to get used to using my phone for most things. I like using my Desktop.
My phone is more convenient but I also enjoy working on my phone. It allows me to multitask.
Not to mention generators are loud and they exhaust the smelly gas :D
