Still waiting on a reply. Thing is the quote above is supplied by my local sparky that does all my work. I know him well and he doesn't seem too keen on me ordering and him only doing installation. It is what it is at this stage. Also got another quote from a well known individual on this forum. Way more expensive and also not the products i would like.

Way more expensive and also not the products i would like. It is a very good price for the installation, most guys would charge R12 000-R15 000 for a 8kw Sunsynk. To me the equipment seem a bit expensive.
November 9, 20214 yr Author So i eventually ordered everything from Steve. Waiting for Werner to give me a price on installation. 16 x Panels and 1x Hubble to start.

November 9, 20214 yr @WAP, any particular reason for going with the 420 watt panels, anymore that size panel is on the lower end of the wattage scale, @Morne SBR, has a 8 kW Sunsynk with the Canadian Solar 595 watt panels

I have noticed going from 5 panels per string to 8 that higher voltage is so much better . The mppt's are just so much more efficient.
November 9, 20214 yr what is the peak load that the inverter and battery combo you have chosen will support?

November 22, 20214 yr Damn, you must have a massive house with a roof big enough (facing north) to accommodate all those panels. 😆🤣😂

One does not realise the size of the panels till you see them up close. The 70mm battery cables are just out of this world. Heavy and thick AF
