November 28, 20223 yr I looked into solar some time back, but in the end could not afford it. I am now in a position to install a system and are looking at getting a system, but not sure what would be the best way to go. My aim is to start with a 8 - 10kWh system with panels. I want to be loadshedding proof as well as save on my Eskom bill. Inverter options: Sunsynk 8kWh - +- R40k or Victron MultiPlus-II 48/5000/70-50 230V GX Sine Wave Charger Inverter + Victron MultiPlus-II 48/5000/70-50 230V Sine Wave Charger Inverter (I understand I only need one with the GX function - +-R60k The thinking above is whether it is worth it for the additional outlay on the VE equipment in the longer term or do I stick with the Sunsynk and add another inverter in future Batteries: With the Sunsynk, is it a good move to go with their own batteries or is there significant better options? I see Hubble and BSL coming up quite a bit in discussions Installer: Any recommended installers for the Roodepoort area? Side point. What is the best current options to save energy usage with an electric geyser? Does a heat pump make sense to just add. I am just worried about mounting options as I am not sure how far away from the actual geyser is too far and there isn't a wall close enough that can be used. Edited November 28, 20223 yr by PearlJam
