What were the reasons if you don’t mind me asking? I know your initial post was over 2 years ago, but I’m wondering if things had advanced since then. thanks

Did you end up installing any solar roof tiles?

I’ve got 8 x 3000B ESS installed on 1st September 2020, and the system is working flawlessly to date.

Thanks for your advice. So I'm getting closer to finishing my (home) build and will soon start focusing on this project. I will provide updates as soon as I begin.

Builder/contractor suggests to add a RO system after the 3 stage to get it to drinkable water. Again, I am not saying I am actually going to drink the water but I want it in that state for peace of mind, that the water is pure.

If you're close to Centurion you are welcome to come and see this setup. I spoke to the manufacturer today and they told me the this system doesn't allow any shit sludge to remain in the 1st tank. My builder/contractor also confirms this 3 stage tank system is something unique. I guess time will tell when I get done with the building and renovations.

Yes , all the waste goes into tank1, which gets filtered and goes to tank 2, then goes through another process and into tank 3. From tank 3 , they claim I can even use to connect my washing machine.

Thanks for your advice. I will contact an installer I found off the jojo website and have them come out and determine what solution they may offer. I am curious to see what can be done further. I have about a 1000m2 of flat roof that can collect rainwater for harvesting. regards

Hi everyone, thanks for the replies. About 10 years back there was an elderly man , a retired engineer and professor who converted sewerage water into drinking water. he did the conversation on my dad’s septic tank. At the time I didn’t care about all this but I did go to see the project and he showed me the purified water and he drank from it. I too was like urghhhh… never, but today we face shortages of water and I want to be totally independent from the municipality. I am not saying I want to actually drink the purified water where the source is from the s hit I flush down the toilet, but I could use that water for the washing machines, dish washers , for car wash etc.

Hi guys, I installed a 3 tank grey water system. All my waste water from toilets,taps, showers etc. is moved to this grey water system. I don't need the grey water for irrigation so i am looking to purify the grey water into drinkable water. How do i go about doing this ? I am looking for a company that can assist me as i am not a DIY type person. Any advice will be appreciated.

See spec sheet attached To give some perspective, I imported the 12v100Ah (same factory as this 2v300Ah) back in 2014 , and had this going well for 5 years until 2019 when i realized my long hours backup time was slowly reducing, and Eskom/Council was extremely unstable in my area. So imported the 2v300Ah to make sure i am covered for up to 2 days. CFPG2300.pdf

Hi guys, I have 2 sets of 48v300Ah gel batteries in 2v cells. 1 set i had been using for a little over a year and since install, i cycled it maybe a handful of times. I had a maximum of 500w as backup for loadshedding. We did have the odd 24 hour power cut and max discharge on these days were no more than 20%, battery bar always showed full. These babies kept me going. other set is basically brand spanking new, i had Jaco Go-Solar hook it up ( together with the set above) when he installed my solar system, but within 3 days i realized i rather just buy the Pylontech batteries and get an ESS going straight away. So this set got a top up charge and is now waiting for a new owner. Price for the used battery is R900 per 2v300Ah and R1100 for the new one. Victron BMV702 monitor R2000 (NEW) If you need more info, please PM me.

Doesn't the battery have a lifespan of 10 years ?

Where did you buy your MUST inverter from ?

Hi guys, Any positive feedback on this type of storage ? I see on the MyBB, this one was mentioned ... https://www.gwstore.co.za/product/sirius-super-capacitor-6-7kwh-48v-energy-module/ Is it worth looking into these or should i settle for lithium (BYD, Pylontech etc.) ?
