Not as bad as in Lebanon where state power infrastructure totally collapsed, and you now you buy your power from entrepreneurs in the neighborhood who have portable petrol/diesel generators.
I work from home so invested in two 1000KW inverters with 100AH AGM batteries for powering my fibre and servers (it has battery banks at the POP) and looking at replacing them with LifePO batteries when the AGM ones die.
Some companies are selling a rent a solar conversion for your home - you just make do.
- liampulles 4y agoSouth african here, literally just bought an inverter with 2 100AH lifepo's and solar ports. Sorry to hear the situation in lebanon is not great, I hope your situation improves.
- tibbydudeza 4y agoActually Cape Town - which system did you get and LifePo's - decided to split the load in my setup across two inverters so the recharge time would be limited to 100AH battery and not 2 x 100AH. I am reading about the Hubble S-120 drop in replacement batteries with their own BMS but I am reading conflicting reports.
- liampulles 4y agoI went with the SPS-1000 with 2 100AH LifePo4 batteries from here: http://www.smartpowersystems.co.za/ http://www.smartpowersystems.co.za/ I think the batteries in this case are "AOKLY LiFePO4 Battery ALFP-12100", also drop in replacement types, probably similar to the Hubble ones. My email is in my bio if you have any follow up questions.
