Dear all. Firstly I would like to wish you all a safe and happy holiday break. I appreciate every single member and their contribution to making this a great, peaceful and happy platform to enrich each other with knowledge and advise. This was the goal when I started in 2013 with myself as 1 member. As the aviation industry is a very uncertain career I started the powerforum store about 2 years ago. I don't and will never request any member of this forum to be obligated to purchase from the store. There are many other commercial suppliers that offer just as great service. Since the beginning in 2013 , every member that has joined has been checked and manua…

The Powerforum Public Online Discussion Forum - www.powerforum.co.za was established in 2013 to share knowledge. A lifetime of shared knowledge is invaluable. The goal was to create an open sharing platform that will encourage creativity and spark new ideas. Allowing members of the public to make informed decisions before spending, investing large amounts of energy and capital installing solar-renewable energy products at their homes or offices. Whether you are just beginning your journey towards energy independence or already have years of hard-won experience under your belt. Everyone is welcome on the Powerforum. The Power Forum Server costs, upkeep and platform …

Hi All Just installed a new security update for our forum. Please do let me know if anyone has any trouble whatsoever replying and creating new topics. As well if you find you have elevated permissions let know. This helps double check me after the update as I check each Main Discussion one by one. (Takes about 50-mins and a cup of coffee ) Sincerely J :>

We did it. It has been a 5 year journey. I want to thank each and every member for making this possible. To the future and sharing knowledge! . Find The attached. We will add the description tomorrow. Magnum Opus. Sincerely Jason

Can one of the admins make contact? I'm struggling to access my main login and I think it's because when the forum changed the login from username to email I messed something up

Good day does anyone knows how can I get read of E-9 error on geyserwise. The pump was checked it is working and I suspected thermostat,we replaced it yesterday but today the error came back. The geyser is set to use Eskom only in the morning and at that time everything works perfectly including water temperature display. When the sun comes up the pump circulates water and when geyser reach 25° the E-9 error starts and the geyser releases boiling water very aggressively on the outside outlet. This makes me think that the temperature on the display is incorrect because I wound expect water to be lukewarm at 25° but you get very hot water. That was the reason we suspected …

Hello @Energy-Jason Firstly, thank you for this wonderful forum that has lead to such great discussions. I am part of another online forum that uses the same forum platform software. On their Home page there is a link "Unread Content" right at the top which stays there. It is very helpful for me as I go to Unread all the time. I know PowerForum has such a link from one of the dropdowns at the top and also right at the bottom but I was wondering if you would be able to add the one at the top as a constant link as shown in the below image. Thank you

Seems to have disappeared...

I have installed over 20 Units of the Voltronic Max II 10 kw inverters and found the last three inverters having a problem the PV side. I have 2 strings of 8 Jinko 580 panels going to the inverter and find at peak of the day the inverter trips for a second when the panels produces a-lot of power. There is no error of fault warning indicated on the inverter. It just cut out the output power and starts again. I have replaced a new unit on one of the installations and find the new unit works perfectly. Has anyone had a similar or the same experience on the Voltronic max ii kw 10 inverter ?

I thought it was due to the dark mode but light mode also does it.

Who would be in favour of a Dark Mode option for The Powerforum?

Any idea how long should one wait? I get this when wanting to reply on a topic.

Gents, I don't know if any of you have noticed but somehow I've been directed to another forum when trying to get to this site,

Tapatalk. Would you Like it on Forum? Feel free to use the above Poll. Jay

Much like the thread title, you have two "Contact Us" menu entries in the top blue menu header.

Hi All Are you also getting spam from the forum every so often? Thanks,

Basically as per subject. How does one do that? I am pretty computer savvy but I cannot see this? On MyBroadband, you have this: "Jump to new", what is the equivalent here?

My spelling is terrible ... on other forums I rely on Grammarly to fix my writing, but it doens't seem to work on powerforum. Would it be possible to somehow enable it?

Hi guys It is really frustrating for me to be unable to edit my post later. Especially when I'm for example doing a build and I'd like to add to my first post the stuff that I've crossed off, changed, etc. Is it really necessary to prevent editing?

Whatever happened to Chris Hobson? He used to be very active, but I have not seen him for ages.

Hi, As a newbie here it seems weird that you must have 15 posts before you have access to the downloads. That seems like a great recipe to have people like me asking the same questions over and over when they are already answered in the available downloads...? Thanks!

@Energy-JasonCan you put a template for the classified section please. Location of seller should be mandatory in the post. It's pointless to go back and forth only to find out the seller is on the other side of the country. Template could be Item description Model Quantity Location Age Condition Warrantee Courier or collection Price

Just received my gift today and so excited to give it a try. Thank you powerforum 🥳

Wouldn’t it be nice to have some Power Forum merchandise? I’m thinking hoodies, jackets, T-shirts and caps. I would love to have a hoodie like that. What does everyone else think?
