The sad thing about all this expensive solar/inverter battery systems, people expect more than what they offer, at ridiculously high prices.
I am busy with a system which will eventually offer maybe 3 hours of power during load shedding, at a cost of around R100 000.00, its ridiculous.
I have installed (not supplied, because I cant bring myself to rip people off like that) silly R10-15000.00 inverter (FLA) backup system which cant even get through 2 hours of load shedding @ 300 watts within the first year of installation, in most cases within a year the batteries are damaged beyond repair, because the system are not designed correctly or they have been left to discharge when load shedding stops for a couple months. Customers are promised the world, in reality they just become land fill.
People think installing AGM is a cheaper solution than lithium, a short term solution which will require increasing credit card debt, home loan extension.
After watching the video with the Eskom CEO, there is no short term solution, just a really expensive solution and every man and his dog is climbing on the band wagon
A get rich scheme, smart people are becoming millionaires literally over night at the expense of fools.
