Trojan t105 225ah 6v x 8 = R20k 48v, Solar Gel 250ah 12v x 4 = R21.4k 48v Based on what was said above, does this mean the Trojan's are better, ie higher ah bank?

Hi, bank 1 not sufficient?

Hi Chris, see Wetkit's post in the accesories area. Are you galvanising the steel?

Any updates? Would like to know how this system went?

Hi Mike, are you sure? The hybrid in the link has very similar specs to the infinisolar 3kw plus ... main difference as is higher input and outputs ... up to 6kw with some sort of grid relay? Are you perhaps talking about another model? Cost is 16k excluding import taxes etc

http://www.mppsolar.com/v3/mpi-hybrid-series-2/ And these perhaps? Output up to 5.1kw ...

Hi , thanks for the reply. Perhaps post your system in the my system section?

Hi guys Anyone have any experience with the above. I know renesolar known for their panels, not sure if their inverters are any good. Considering the following: http://www.renesola.com/renesola-tl-5kw-230v-50-60hz-grid-tied-solar-inverter-2-mppt5-year-dc-switch-wi-fi-cardweb-monitor-china-7442/ How does this compare with the infinisolar 3/5kw plus? I know it has wifi but not sure what the benefit of DC switch is? Does this unit allow the same switch over between grid and solar as the infinisolar? Thanks in advance Haggers

Hi Dax, dc3 has nicely priced axpert inverters in cpt. Regards Haggers

Is this the best priced infinisolar u can find? http://www.2k11.co.za/Enterprise/Solar/SOL-I-IS-3MPlus?limit=75

Hi Energy, any chance we can get a sticky to summarise deals available. Looking for infinisolar 3kw plus or 5kw, 10 poly pv panels 250-300w panels and lifepo4 battery pack with ems.

Wind turbine?

Hi Mike, how much do they cost and maintenance?

Hi Mike, can you pm me your contact details. Would like to chat to you sometime about a quote for my place around end of August.

I have also been comparing the axpert and the infinisolar and one of the main reasons for the later was how the grid tops up the infinisolar and not the axpert. For example, if u get a 3kw solar power and ur power needs are 5kw, my understanding is the axpert will switch to grid for full 5kw whereas the infinisolar will sync and 3kw by solar and 2kw by grid ... can this be confirmed by the experienced guys?

Awesome install Mike

Hi What is the cost of vacuum tubes retrofitted? Thanks Haggers

great job, keep us updated

Hi, sounds like a great idea. Added to that, it would also be great if members can share their supplier details.
