Based on your suggestion would it be better to go for larger inverter or additional battery capacity and panels?

At the moment I have all lighting on the property on LED and we use Gas stove. Next step is to get a geyser timer. I am considering going solar or gas geyser but the Solar kit will take preference. I work from home and should loadshedding move to stage 8 it will become impossible to do so.

From the research I have done it seems that Sunsynk is the preferential brand and spending a little extra goes a long way. On the battery and panels side, what brands should I look at keeping in mind the battery cycles and warranties etc. And as mentioned before, will this be a sufficient kit to start with.

Hi All, I am looking at going hybrid solar, Ideally I would like to run my entire household besides my geyser on solar power during day time and on battery power at night with the security of the grid should I run out of battery in the winter time. Grid will power Geyser that will be put on timer to have as little usage as possible. My highest usage in the last 2years were 750kwh for the month and we average around 700kwh, so more or less 25kwh per day. Plan is to start with a 5kva dual mppt inverter, 5kwh battery and 8x 450w panels. Will expand in future by adding additional battery capacity and panels if needed. Will this be sufficient to start with, which brands to get and what must I avoid. Hopefully my explanation makes sense. Thanks in advance.
