    Has anyone purchase from diy geek? Looking to purchase a Solis s6 pro 6kw inverter. Seems a good deal? Would love to hear your thoughts as I'm pretty new to solar https://www.diygeek.co.za/product/solis-s6-pro-6kw-advanced-hybrid-inverter/?utm_source=Google Shopping&utm_campaign=All Products&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=21534&cmp_id=18046938637&adg_id=&kwd=&device=m&gclid=CjwKCAjw5remBhBiEiwAxL2M9ylK2_RMfp5SGWxyWWB1-JLRrieJpLTt3LckCPX_FPSctpKTmfBt-hoCuT4QAvD_BwE
  2. Is this 40 amps additional to the current provided from PV and battery or is 40 amps the maximum the unit can handle? Meaning Pv,battery and grid combined 40 amps?
  3. This 6kw Solis is ticking all the boxes for me. I feel any 5kw is going to be just a tad too small. Is the Solis compatible with solar assistant? I don't see it on their list?
  4. I'm going for the 230ah cells. First diy battery attempt. Just deciding what bms to use
  5. Anyone pulling the trigger on some cells from apexium? Price seems brilliant?

    Thanks for the replies guys. Am I right in saying that sunsynk/deye units are capable of settings changes remotely through the app? Other brands their app is only for monitoring purposes?

    Hi guys. Completely new to solar and planning on a system for our household of 4 people. I feel like the most important part to the system is the inverter. I'm thinking 5kw inverter will be enough to power the lights and essential plugs. Geysers and stove is gas already. My question is. Sunsynk/deye are radically more expensive than the rest. Why is that? Are the axpert based inverters sufficient for my needs? Also what I think is critical for me is to be able to remotely setup the inverter or change settings remotely. I have home assistant currently so integration would be pretty cool.
