Thank you again. Yeah will speak to the installer to ensure.

Thanks Superfly, yeah must get correctly specced items. Just want to make sure I have it all before the installer arrives so there no running around after the fact. Like you say, Victron not plug and play and everything is an additional component, so again don't want to be running around last minute. Thank you for the response.

Hi All, Me again. Was going to get the Sunsynk inverter but have been made an incredible offer on a Victron multiplus ii and MPPT that I don't think I should pass up on. I have purchased a BSL Batt already. Question is what are all the extras I would need to purchase? I know GX device but battery cables and what all else....if anyone can assist. Thanks.

Thank you to all again.

Again, thank you all for the responses. @hoohloc, yeah, will not DIY, thanks again.

Thank you mzezman, most appreciated.

Apologies for yet another noob question. Should we go single 10kw or 2 x 5kw batteries. Is there any particular item to be worried about on either setup?

Thank you all for the responses thus far. Will look into the specific models etc. Not just rushing in which is why this forum is so valuable to us.

Hi all, With where loadshedding is at and the continued decline we are looking the whole solar road. Based on our current usage etc. We have settled on 8kw inverter Deye or Sunsynk, read that it is the same and would rather ask, is the extra 2k worth it for the Sunsynk? Batteries we are looking at either 2x pylontech up5000 or Dyness BX51100, the price difference is negligible so are there any major differences between the 2 or which would be recommended? Finally looking at 8 x 545w JA Mono Half Cell Solar Panelto start with and add more later on this year, should we get the panels upfront or rather invest in a third battery and get the panels later? The idea is to eventually move as far away from Eksdom as possible and we add either as we go along. Thanks in advance for any information.
