Thanks for all the input. Seems like Sunsynk not an option!

Good point. What are the recommended brands now that installers are using?

Hi All, new to the forum and looking at (finally) installing a small 5kw solar system. My installer (also a friend) has given me a few quotes including options from Sunsynk and Sungrow. The Sunsynk system is R25k cheaper than the Sungrow (which comes down to the 9,6kwh battery it seems that comes with the Sungrow - Sunsynk is a 5kwh). Although he has installed many Sunsynks and hasn't had any problems, he has warned me about their appalling aftersales support - hence me joining the forum to try and do some research. I don't really need such a big battery as the main purpose of the system is to save on Eskom charges so my questions are: is Sunsynk still a viable option? Are there any alternative recommendations to the Sungrow? Can't really afford the extra R25k. TIA for any input.
