April 3, 20197 yr Author 2 hours ago, Jaws said: start with a single 2.4 kWh Polyntech , see how far that gets you for now.... Budget is always an issue, because I also want to say that if you plan to add solar than I wouldnt recommend an Axpert ....... If you only want an UPS type setup with no solar - Axper with a Lithium battery will work If you want some return on the investment then you need solar with a Hybrid inverter. Cheapest way to start out is probably a Goodwe with a Lithium battery (R20k + R15k) Then you can start adding panels... Where do you recommend getting it from at these prices?

The warranty follows the product, not the 1st owner. Get the invoice from the seller. Very clever way of ensuring a 2nd hand market if you ask me. EDIT: I have owned 2nd hand Victron equipment, and have sod it on, over the years. Never once a regret. Edited April 6, 20197 yr by Guest
