  1. Hi folks, I got Sunsynk here in SA to update the firmware which updated from M 3.3.7.1 to M 3.3.7.4. I'll only be able to check tonight if this helped or not.
  2. Morning folks, I posted this to the Sunsynk forums and got this response from Peter at Sunsynk. "Hi Glen, not sure where in the world you find yourself, we are working with Deye to establish the cause of the problem (not sure the true cause yet) and will look to updating this over the next few days. Just to check, is this noise coming from the appliances or from the inverter itself?" Lets hold thumbs and see where this goes. I did respond in the forum to Peter so hopefully something good comes out of this.
  3. Hi folks, I had my 5kw Sunsynk installed today and I've noticed the high pitch coming from everywhere in the house! My son even noticed it as well. Is there anything that I can do about this? Is there anything that my installer can do?
  4. Wow YellowTapemeasure thanks so much for the explanation and the link to the video. Going with Synsynk is an absolute no-brainer. Granted, I am not going solar in this install, but I know that solar HAS TO form part of the plan in some point once I have the funds to do so, but being able to feed the solar power into the non-critical load instead of it being wasted because the batteries are fully charged and the critical load is using just a litttle bit more than what the panels produce thus the critical load would be pulling from the grid only with a non-hybrid inverter. In saying, being able to power the house with the panels and make up the remainder of the power requirement from the gird - wow! Yeah, I want to keep the lights on during looadshedding, but gosh, one has to think a little more further than that, even if the cost is about R3k more in going with the Sunsynk vs the Axpert.
  5. Hi folks, I generally would search a forum, etc before posting a simple question as this, but I tend to find that it is more of finding a needle in a haystack than anything else in order to find a lament's terms answer or that bits and pieces of information is scattered across many many discussions. I am a technical person, but venturing into this side of things is new to me .. hell, maybe I made a post in the wrong thread for that matter, I don't know. If there are threads that I can read on different topics, I'll be more than happy to go there than having the information repeated. But based on Scorp007's answer above, I can start to gauge that the Sunsynk is a lot more configurable for different situations which is always a good thing, so already that is a good start as to the advantage of getting one over the Axpert .. I don't really understand that the Axpert based inverters are not on an approved list to be connected to the DB provided that these inverters have been in the market in SA for years? I'll read up on NRS 097-2-1 to understand what this really means .. hopefully there is a Cliffnotes version of this. hehehe. But thanks so far, I'll try and read more, but always good to get easy to understand insights on this type of stuff.
  6. In what way is the Synsynk in a different league to the Axpert? I am very new to this and I must say that there are not, if not any, comparison videos or anything of the like on YouTube, or anything like that.
  7. Hi folks, I am in the process of getting quotes to install an inverter system at home. I got 3 quotes from one installer specifying a different inverter on each quote. As I am price sensitive, I needed to see all the options available. Sunsynk 5kw Kodak 5.6kw Axpert Max 7.2kw (8KVA) The Sunsynk is about R3k more than the Axpert with the Kodak about R6k less than the Axpert. I am keen on the Axpert since I know the name, it is 7.2 kw, have friends who have them and who are happy with them and the fact that I can integrate it to my Home Assistant set up. Why should I consider the Sunsynk over Axpert or visa versa? Looking forward to your replies.
  8. Hi folks, Just joined the forum and super chuffed at this huge community here. Really great! We are strongly considering a backup power solution for the house in leuw of loadshedding, it has been a case of analysis paralysis, but now strongly considering it now. I would like to have an inverter system installed to power the house during loadshedding. No PVs as yet, maybe later though. Quite keen on the Axpert King 5kva inverter with lithium ion batteries, but looking forward to seeing what installers would recommend. Since many of you have gone this route, can you please impart your personal recommendations of installers that you have used to install your own system that I can contact for quotes? If you rather want to PM me details, that is fine too. I live in the Table View area. I really prefer to go on personal recommendations as it gives me peace of mind that if others recommend good installers, it helps to cement the decision in the end. I also have a tricky garage so I am also hoping for creative ideas on where this can be installed. Thanks very much in advance.
