Man gives review of 1kVA solar inverter
@segun.finance.2 explained that he bought the smallest size and mentioned what it cost.
He said:
"Since I bought solar, I just dey thank God for my life. If I tell you, say I don save 3 million naira in the last 3 years since I bought solar."
"Na just 1kVA solar, literally the lowest solar wey you fit buy. When I bought it, everything was like 700k, in 2023."
After mentioning the amount he has saved because he didn’t spend on fuel, he also mentioned the specific figure he spent on the solar inverter.
His statement:
"NEPA in my side is bad. I've already made my money back in the first year. The year after that, fuel was like 5,000, so that will be about 5k per day to use fuel. I've saved almost 3 million naira."
He revealed that there was a time when fuel was not as expensive as it is today, but he already had a solar inverter, so he didn’t spend, and he calculated the amount he could have spent on fuel.
He calculated what he could have spent purchasing fuel from the moment he bought the inverter three years ago and said the amount is close to 3 million naira.

As a result of not spending such an amount on fuel, he urged people to also buy an inverter and enjoy electricity as he does.

"NEPA is bad, so I could have been buying fuel every day. Buy that inverter today."

Legit.ng contacted Mr. Segun, the individual who had recently trended online after giving a review of the solar inverter he bought years back.
He was contacted, and he provided answers on the current capacity of the solar inverter while also pointing out some challenges he faced from time to time during usage.
When asked what appliances he uses specifically with the solar inverter, Mr. Segun said:
"55-inch TV, rechargeable fan, a few POP lights, and a laptop."
He then mentioned some of the challenges he has faced and still experiences from time to time. He shared:
"Lots of challenges, it's gotten spoilt 5 times due to bad earthing during lightning."
"It always dies fast when I have visitors around."
He explained that this, however, happens because when visitors are around, he mostly uses additional appliances, and this consumes battery in the inverter, making it drain very fast.
Lastly, he explained that he has been able to maintain it by purchasing a type of water and also changing the ones in the battery.
His statement:
"Maintenance has involved purchasing distilled water for 5k and changing the one in the battery caps."
