Posted January 10, 20232 yr Hi Cannot afford a complete system at this stage , so initial aim is to just get away from load shedding for now We Use about 8-12 units a day in summer/ autumn / spring and about 15-25 in winter . We have a solar geyser and gas hob already . My thinking is start with inverter and battery first with pv at a later stage . With the main aim to avoid load shedding Also should we start with a hybrid or off grid inverter ? Thanks Edited January 10, 20232 yr by Twaatie
January 14, 20232 yr Hi @Twaatiesince you have a Gas stove and solar geyser the question tgen becomes; do you plan to have any loads before the inverter like aircons and do you wish to feedback to the grid if that is possible. If you have no plans to feedback or non essential loads then an axpert max becomes an option for a similar price to a 5kW hybrid. A 5kW hybrid is nice should grid feedback become a real option
