OrangePower Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Hi, I stumbled upon this forum and wonder to myself why I haven't found it 2 years ago.....I needed you guys back then. However, now I have a different topic, I'm selling my whole OUTBACK VFX3048E rig. I have the following kit available!:- VFX3048E inverter. 3kw, takes 48v DC supply- 24 Deltec 1250 102Ahr batteries- 28 Battery stand- Outback Mate controller- Enough DC wire to connect the whole system- AC cable to connect to your DB- Switchboard box with circuit brakers From the looks of it I don't have to tell you all about OUTBACK, you get it. Just in case, here's some specs. I'm asking R29,000 for the whole setup. I'm emigrating to the US and the yanks use 110v sadly, otherwise I might actually have taken it with me. The inverter alone is worth(retail) R50k at sustainable.co.za. What do you think, am I too high or too low or just right? Energy-Jason 1 Quote

DeepBass9 Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Problem is, you are preaching to the choir! Most people here already have an installation. Quote
OrangePower Posted February 16, 2017 Author Posted February 16, 2017 Lol, true I guess. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Yes, and they are 100Ah batteries... which means MANY parallel strings for most of us, something we're not fond of. SilverNodashi and superdiy 2 Quote
OrangePower Posted February 16, 2017 Author Posted February 16, 2017 I see. Wish I knew of you guys a few years ago! Could've learned a lot. Thanks for taking time to respond though. [emoji3]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
OrangePower Posted February 17, 2017 Author Posted February 17, 2017 Bugger, could have sworn that was in there. Sorry. I'm in Centurion. 3 minutes ago, KLEVA said: Hi OrangePower, where are you based? Quote
KLEVA Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Damn, if closer I might have been willing to risk it for the batteries alone, then could have put the inverter behind my Axpert, but once transport added in the cost is too high for my pocket. Quote
Riaanh Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Hi OrangePower. I think especially in this group you will struggle a bit to get it all sold once off. This is the ideal sale, if you have the luxury of time. Not ideal, but in my opinion you would get at least most of the items sold if you break it up into the separate items. Just a thought. R Quote
OrangePower Posted February 20, 2017 Author Posted February 20, 2017 Hi Riaanh, appreciate the thought. Given that I still haven't sold this(to my surprise ) I am willing to break it up and sell as individual units. Any takers then for particular parts? It would probably make sense to sell the batteries with the stand and the Mate with the inverter. I also have a 4-port hub which I haven't advertised as it isn't really part of the rig but you'll need it when you have more than 2 Outback components. Any offers/takers?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Riaanh Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Have you got any idea on a price for the batteries, I assume the batteries also 2 years old, and any idea on usage/general condition? Quote
OrangePower Posted February 22, 2017 Author Posted February 22, 2017 Hi guys, I have found a buyer for the whole kit! Lucky me. Thanks for your comments and thoughts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Riaanh, ___ and Chris Hobson 3 Quote
Chris Hobson Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Nice Orange I must ask whether your forum alias is related to your imminent move to the land of the orange leader? Quote
OrangePower Posted February 23, 2017 Author Posted February 23, 2017 Hahahaha, no. More related to my undignified affiliation with a certain underperforming domestic rugby team. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ___ and Chris Hobson 2 Quote
OrangePower Posted March 3, 2017 Author Posted March 3, 2017 Morning all, so, my potential buyer is giving me the run around wrt payment and collection. Since I am leaving the country in a weeks I am getting more and more desperate to sell this. My original asking price was R29k but now I'm willing to drop that significantly to secure a sale and have the money in my bank account asap. Make me an offer, please!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
