RandburgRicky got a reaction from Jaco De Jongh in Hybrid system for new house (Goodwe / Victron)Thank you for the responses so far.
Are you comparing the Goodwe 5048D-ES with the Victron Easysolar 48/5000? The Goodwe is about R29000 and the Victron Easysolar 5000 is R44000 incl, so it is about 50% more expensive. I have seen the Victron easysolar 3000 going for R27000 so it is actually cheaper than the Goodwe Are there better prices on the Victron?
I am an embedded developer / electronic engineer, so I like to tinker with technology. The more flexibility the better for me 😁
This is a very nice feature of the Victron.
I have also heard on another forum that the 5048D-ES needs Eskom to boot up. Is there maybe a firmware difference between the different generations of the inverter?
I am definitely leaning towards the Victron at this point in time. Will have a better idea (hopefully) towards the end of this week.
