  1. Thanks Steve. Appreciate it. Yeah I’m loving BSL
  2. Sunsynk 5kw with BSL 5kwh Slimline and 6 x 550w panels. New BSL has a 15 year warranty and 8000 cycles at 80% DOD. 6000 cycles at 100% DOD
  3. That’s not correct. How would you charge the batteries from the grid if you need to.
  4. 35mm on the 5kw and 50mm on the 8kw
  5. He was asking about the loud output breaker.
  6. Well as a rule, I tell users to not draw more than 5kw on the essential side anyway. I don’t think it’s great practice to regularly use the pass through feature.
  7. No you don’t really have to
  8. 32A on the 5kw and 50A on the 8kw
  9. Sunsynk/BSL Combo with Cabinet
  10. Hi Steve. Miraculously my 8kw was repaired within a week.
  11. Item: 24 x 390w JA solar panels Age : 3 years Price : R50000 Payment Method : EFT Warranty : Balance from Segen Solar Packaging : N/A Condition : Good Location : Midrand Reason : Upgrading Shipping : Will deliver to anywhere in Jhb
  12. Do you know who can I ask that will give me a valid answer which can be held under scrutiny?
  13. What setup do u currently have?
  14. The benefit for me is that the Sunsynk has a better UI.
  15. That’s definitely not a significant failure rate. Time frame - 36 months
  16. Overall, it’s a great inverter. I have installed close to 150 units and of those, only 4 had failed due to a factory fault. Seems like the repair centre also does Deye, Fusion and all the other rebranded units which adds to the lengthy turnaround time.
  17. They used to when Shabir was the head technician but they fired him. Having been there last week, there is around 200 inverters waiting to be repaired so I don’t think the 2 week timeframe is realistic.
  18. My Sunsynk 8kw has been running great for 3 years. I have produced on average 1500kwh a month which is around 54000kwh. Never skipped a beat.
  19. Hi John. I handed in an 8kw Sunsynk last week. The guy who processed the warranty claim told me minimum 2 months to have it looked at. Luckily I have spare units.
  20. I contacted Sunsynk now. Here is a snapshot of the messages.
