  1. Good morning - I hope someone can assist. I installed a solar system (5kw solar panels, 5kw inverter, 12kn Li batteries) at my house approx. 6 years ago, and the had numerous initial problems caused by installers not knowing what they are doing etc. I now want to install a load shedding solution at my mom's house (initially 5kw Sunsynk, 3.5ke Pylontech but possible solar panels and increased battery bank later) and need to find a reputable installer in the Pretoria East area who knows what they are doing and whose installation will work perfectly from the start - my mom is in her late 70's and need a totally reliable solution without any drama. Can anyone recommend a reliable installler - not just a bakkie electrician suddenly jumping on the solar and load shedding bandwagon claiming to be an expert??? Thanks in advance
  2. Hi - I saw this post can cannot find the editing option/menu item, would be grateful if you could point me in the right direction
  3. Hi - getting lots of views to my ad but no offers, I really just want to prevent a long dragged out sale process where I try forever to get the maximum sale price and accordingly will drop my guide price to around R12 000. First offer in this ballpark get the batteries I'm not sure people will read this reply to my original ad - if not I will repost the ad with this lower price expectation included
  4. Hi - I think at least R16 000 for all 4 batteries should be fair (anything more would off-course not be refused!). My reasoning in arriving at the amount is that the performance of all 4 the batteries combined should at least equal the performance of 1.5 new US2000 batteries. Are my expectations wholly unrealistic? I have no idea what used batteries are worth Forgot to add - any interested party is off-course free to come to my house and test the batteries 1st Regards
  5. Selling my used batteries after upgrading (have been sitting for last 3 weeks after I upgraded) Item: 4 x Pylontech Extra2000 Li batteries Age: Bought in 2016 Price: Make me a reasonable/fair offer in R12 000 range (for all 4) Payment Method Accepted: Preferably cash Warranty: No (not sure if still covered by Pylontech warranty???) Packaging: No Condition: Good - cannot guarantee remaining capacity but in good working order - pictures of cell info for 2 of the batteries attached below (cannot easily get this for the other batteries as they don't have the small LCD screen. Location: Pretoria Reason: Struggled to sort out the unequal discharging between the 4 batteries, decided that it is a good time to upgrade my batteries to US 3000 Shipping: No Collection: Yes Link:
  6. Good morning to all the guru's (I am technical ignoramus - and Newbie on this site, plse excuse any breaches of protocol - I have posted this same message under the battery topic sub/old existing thread) I just replaced the previous batteries on my system with 3 Pylontech US3000C batteries - similar to other people (Deejay and Occo in a different thread) I have problems connecting the battery BMS to my inverter as the US3000C has a RS485 port while my inverter has a RS232 comms port. I have a Solax SK-SU5000E inverter. I see that that Deejay and Occo found a solution for their comms cable problems and if anybody could help me to similarly find out what the pinouts must be to connect the batteries to my inverter I would be extremely grateful. Even if someone can just give me a reference to an expert who might know - After spending what I consider to be a lot of money on the batteries which are currently paperweights I would really be willing to pay a lot for a solution!! I have contacted the battery supplier and Solax, but without any joy to date.
