My mom lives in George... not sure if that's "your neck of the woods"? But she's planning on taking it to "someone recommended by the people in her retirement village" so we'll see. Thanks

So it turns out, the ONT already has it's own mini ups... so, solution is for just a 32" tv and media box.

So, an update on the situation... Turns out the inverter is toast... Which is the reason things aren't so rosy at they moment. Will look at the inverter above and see if it'll suit. Thanks

Is there one portable power station (brand/model) that stands out above the others? I'm looking for a solution for my mother who's battling with her Mecer inverter with 2 lead acid batteries... The solution works, but, the 4 hour sessions are worrying her for battery life... Essential she want to be able to run her TV, with router/modem/ONT for the full 4 hours, and not have to worry about battery degradation. And cost is an ongoing concern.

This is what I'm after... not necessarily to be off grid, even at a site with power, BUT, that would be a massive bonus. NOW to find something "small" that I can stealth install. 🤔

Thanks guys... It's super simple to rather have 2 lines in a caravan, rather than a "massive" inverter, or a "popping" inverter. Can still charge the batteries from a smaller inverter.

I have an off-road caravan (conqueror Companion) and I'm looking to add a small inverter to it (purely to make coffee) when off-grid... for usability. The Axpert VM1 has been recommended, but I'm looking for something a little smaller, that I can "hide" in some of the voids in the caravan.... Can anyone suggest other options? Something else to add... it needs to allow higher loads to "pass through" when connected to the grid.

✋ me please? (trusting this will work)

Decided to change my discharge settings... can't afford an second battery at the moment.

damn... now that IS a pity...

I've just put in an order for the Sunsynk logger... My understanding is that it allows 2-way comms with the inverter, whereas the SolarMan is only a reader...

Eish.... looks like I'm going to lose everything on switch over. 😔

I'm seriously looking at getting the "new" dongle... am I able to export/import my Solarman data? For historical purposes.

Have a SunSynk 8kW.... and you're 100% right... you don't play with a R60k battery.
