  1. Hi All. Ive been looking at security cameras at my place. And came across these wyze cam v3. Although you have to pay for the extra features, im really liking the tech and features for the price. Wanted to know if anyone has had any experience with them. Would love to get some feedback. Thanks
  2. Hi All, so it seems my supply has changed. Im actually getting a 3phase supply in. What I wanted to know is will i be force to get the sunsynk 3 - phase 12kw? The balance wont be correct as the main house will consume much more than 4kw. or is there another solution?
  3. Thanks this will really help. Going to add this to my configuration.
  4. Thanks...Will definitely take this into consideration.
  5. Thanks all for the reply. This is what im looking at doing. The non-essential loads in the rentals will be direct Eskom only. Eventually will move them behind the solar system when i can afford to. Any advice and input is much appreciated.
  6. Hi All, Wanted to get some advice on weather to go with 1 system or 3 separate systems. Im going to be building a house with 2 small cottages(rentals). I have a single phase Eskom 80amp coming in. I was going to run 2 x 8 kw invertors and all 3 houses on 1 system. I was told by the guys im buying the equipment from i wont be able to meter the cottages usage(which are rentals) if i have 1 system. and I should setup 3 separate systems. not sure which way to go here. Any advice? Kind Regards Zeo
  7. Hi All, Im looking at the ""BYD 5kWh Lithium-Ion Battery"" - 100% DOD and 1C. Anybody have any experience with this brand? Thanks in advance
  8. The company i plan to buy the Alpha from have confirmed Deye invertors are fine...and they will honor the warantee. So just confirm with the company you bought it from. It should be fine.
  9. Hi All, So i spoke to the guys at SOLAR ADVICE. and they saying Alpha will honor the warantees with deye invertors.
  10. I sent the question to the guys at solarshop.co.za They didn't send me the write up.
  11. Here's the answer "Question: Can I use a Fusion 10kw invertor with this battery? Or does it have to be alpha or goodwe invertors? Answer: Hi Zain, we have it in writing from Alpha ESS that they will not honour any warranties if you use the battery with this inverter (or a Sunsynk or Deye)" So I'll need to look at goodwe or alpha invertors. Or another battery make.
  12. Got you. I'll work on the 4 hour worst case scenario. Can The extra Pv can be used in other ways after the battery is charged? Like If theres loadshedding I can give my neighbor a plug point to do his washing or something
  13. @Sc00bs I see you trying to get me to stay away from Eskom. Haha. Can't blame you. I still cant getbover the cost of connection and why I have to pay for their grid. I think Im going to have to run the numbers. There's a R300 connection fee per month. R500 depending on what supply i take. I'm not sure, I have asked if the alphas can be connected to the sunsynks. Just waiting for a reply. I did see someone systems pic on this forum with an alpha battery. I'll double check. Thanks
  14. Thanks for the reply. Are you working on 4 hours a day production? 545 x 29 = 15805 x 4 = 63? I used 4.5 to 5 hours a day production. I think when looking at the graphs, it's becoming ever likely I'll have tobhave Eskom as a backup. Even if it's just for my essential loads. If I have 2 x 8kw Sunsynk invertors in parallel, what Eskom supply would I need? Should I just make sure the supplies amps can cover my essential loads across all 3 houses? I think because the house is not built my usage is just an assumption at the moment. Like @Sc00bs mentioned i need to relook at the system a few months in.
