Eishkom reacted to Brendonvdh in budget 5kW backup system buildOK so after spending many hours in this rabbit hole I have decided not to go for a 5kW system 😀
I realised a 3kW system is like half the price and will backup 80% of what I would have done with 5kW
A 3kW system is just much more bang for buck in my case.
It will still cover all lights, TV, alarm, router, computers and alarm which is all I really need.
and I can add solar later, it will be a smaller and simpler install, and a quicker return on investment.
This is what I am getting:
2 x Hubble S-120 1.5kWh 12V 120Ah Lithium Battery R14000

1 x MUST 3KW 60AMP/MPPT SOLAR HYBRID INVERTER R5500

thanks everyone for the responses and tips so far.
I will give an update once I got this system installed.
