    OK, Most likely looking for Bockwurst in a Pitbul den, but here goes. I am looking for a 48V Inverter to buy off someone. So where is the catch, just go to the shop and buy one 🙈 I want to use it simply to keep a battery charged away from my current setup for testing batteries, Not the inverter anything, simply direct on battery testing (Battery Communication). So essentially the inverter would run for a couple of hours per month only. So if anyone has an old Axpert or something, as noted it needs only be marginally operational. I read in some posts of Axpert MPPT portions that burned etc, so those type would suit my need perfectly. Any advic…

    APC 750XL Smart UPS with extended battery box for sale. The main UPS has 2 x 17Ah batteries and the extended box has 4 x 17Ah batteries. The batteries are now 4 years old but still hold a fair amount of charge. When fitted with new batteries, the UPS ran for just over 4 and a half hours with load of approximately 250W. The built-in battery charger is designed for external battery packs, so the recharge time is under 2 hours. I am in Vredehoek, Cape Town.

    Hi, I have a Victron Energy battery monitor model BMV700 with RJ12 cable and 500 shunt (calibrated pair) for sale. I bought it for my system to only realise that it won't work with my setup. This can be used as a stand-alone monitor to determine the true SOC of a battery pack or to be integrated into an existing Victron Energy VE.bus system. I've paid R1874 for it and it is still new. I will let it go for R1,000.

  24. Hi I am selling the controller for R2000. Its as good as new. I had it on my home system for 2 years, but the installer was incompetent and the system was off most of that time. Had to switch to a smart controller after going over to lithium batteries. Kind Regards,Herman
