Hi, relatively new the forum, so just seeking some advice, Looking to get the following 1x Sunsynk Sun 8kW Hybrid Inverter 1x Sunsynk Battery LFP Wall Mount 10.65kWh 8x 500W panels Just a question regarding the discharge rate of the battery. If I were to be drawing around 6500W for more than 25min, would there be issues? I see the Max discharge is 10kW, however I'm, just wanting to know the long-term impact of this/risk? Thanks

Some friends of mine have a farm and are looking for some alternatives to the current Eskom situation. There was some talk a while ago about these flow batteries (https://redflow.com/zbm3-battery). Has anybody had any experience with these, or have any insights to share?

I'm in the process of building an ice bath (don't ask). Essentially a 300L water tank, which I need to chill to between 4 and 10 degrees C. I've looked around SA but cant seem to find anything which sufficiently chill the water, and at the same time pump water from/into the bath at the same time (closed loop system). Not sure if anybody has any ideas or solutions around this?

Brett - amazing, you are a legend! Re the damper control system - how do you program / change / know if it’s setup correctly ?

It supports various zones, WiFi enabled, with app etc.

Thanks for this. Because it supports multiple rooms, I’m sure if you putting it under full load, will use lots of KW. Just trying to see if there is some sort of load profile as it’s variable rate, so when only using a % capacity, trying to understand load. Thanks for your help.

Thanks - going to double check this with them - also thought quite a bit. Details re the unit is here: http://www.icglimited.co.uk/library/web/1. Daikin/8. R32/Indoor Units/Standard Ducted - FBA-A/FBA-A - Technical Data.pdf

Hoping there is an aircon guru somewhere around I'm in the process of a house build. One of the options I'm looking at is a central aircon, as I don't want split unit ducting/units all over the house, and want to keep things clean. Unit is the Daikin FBA140A. I understand that if the unit is on, and cooling entire house, max KW will be drawn (around 18KW apparently). Is there somebody or some way to see if only some zones are on, what the KW draw would be. I'd like to be able to connect aircon to batteries, but then know only 1 room can be on (office), and what the KW usage could be estimated at? Sorry in advance if I've left out some info to help answer this. Thanks in advance!
