Contact Kalo Yan from SolarMD they are battery manufacturers in SA . Kalo is very knowledgeable with SMA products and is always willing to help ! ...our SMA member is always out of town .... maybe out of country . Problem is that SMA has long survival rate ...most of the installers were still in school when that system was installed...when you get them working you forget you have them 😜

This is what I have anyone with any experience in lead acid batteries ?

Hi I acquired 24 X Hoppecke 600 Ah 2v batteries commissioned September 2008....was used with SMA SB 4000 Tl and SI 5048. 24 x Hoppecke 910 Ah 2v batteries commissioned June 2015 ...was used with SMA SB 5000 Tl and a SI 5048 These batteries were fully operational when decommisioned, stored for a year and when contractor was commissioned to reinstall he told client he does not install crap ! ( Probably installed one of those blue things 😜)...that is how I got them ....( 48 batteries X 40 kg x7.00 / kg Now I am from the era when things worked and when they did not you made a plan !!! Hoppecke batteries are sapposed to have a life span of between 15 and twenty years ? Any advice on how to proceed to recondition or get some life out of them...am doing research before talking the project...there are a few old bellies in this forum I have been stalking here since "king" Arthur's days with his MLT bi-directonal inverter 😜 thanks ,cheers Roland

The guys on this forum are afraid of SMA products they are mostly Victron and Apex ....no disrespect....always very helpful !!!.Try Solar PV South Africa on Facebook...Fourie Joubert says 90% of his work is with SMA products...maybe he can help or point you in the right direction... also have a SMA system ...good luck !!!
