Uche Alex noted that he followed his instinct and bought to more solar batteries when 1 dollar was exchanging below N1000.

He said shortly after he bought the two solar batteries, the US dollar started exchanging above N1000.

Uche said the increased exchange rate resulted in the high cost of solar electricity material, noting that he was glad he bought his materials before then.

He wrote on X:

“I always love it when I listen to my instincts. I had the feeling of expanding my solar system just as the dollar fell to about 1k. I added 2 more batteries and solar panels. Few days after the upgrade, I realized dollar has gone up again and prices of Solar products too.”

When asked how much he spent to install the solar batteries, Uche said:

“This is a 3.5kva Solar System with 3.5kva Indian inverter, 400w solar panels by 8, 220Ah Tubular Battery by 4. Plus other accessories. It costs an average of N3.5m to set up with Grade A materials. But, sha, I didn’t spend that much at once. I did it in batches”
