    Do all connected plug points run off hybrid inverter all the time?

    Thanks, I'm typing on my phone and the keyboard blocks half the screen and won't let me scroll down to see what I'm doing. Old phone. I need to replace it. But ok, here's a new paragraph Thanks very much. Your reponse does address exactly what I needed to know. I completely understand that it...

    Do all connected plug points run off hybrid inverter all the time?

    Thanks for the responses. I will definitely switch to solar gradually. It's just too much to spend at once. Basically what I want to be able to do is switch off the inverter when I am going to run a big load. I am referring to when eskom power is ON. When eskom power is off, of course I will...

    Do all connected plug points run off hybrid inverter all the time?

    This is great thanks so much. So then the essentials db board will run directly to each plug?

    Do all connected plug points run off hybrid inverter all the time?

    Thank you for the explanation. I have already bought the inverter snd batteries so there's no going back to a cheaper trolley type now. What would I safely be able to connect to the system I've bought? How does one switch off the power then if you need to? Is there some kind of overrride or...

    Do all connected plug points run off hybrid inverter all the time?

    Hi all I've bought a 3kVA 3000W 24v hybrid inverter which comes with 2 x100aH deep cycle batteries. I don't have solar panels and will maybe upgrade to this in the future sometime. I will also get more batteries as time goes by. I want to have this installed / connected to the db board to run...

    Yeah the weird part is that Fedgroup refers to smaller harvests, yet the entire media has been reporting what a great year it was.for blueberries in South Africa. Something doesn't add up. I did ask Fedgroup directly and, not surprising, I received no answer. Nothing, zilch, zero.

    The rebate confirmation letter will set out your exact taxes and reasons for returns. I don't know...I guess most ppl generally don't have enough invested in blueberries to really care about the rebate.

    Fedgroup - Impact Farming Investment

    My concern around this is not at all that I only get payouts twice per year. It's that the December payout was so low compared to the previous year even though the blueberry crops were through the roof for SA during the same period. I got much less out this year than I did last year. Payouts are...

    Yes, they did. I am getting mixed messages though with financial advisors telling me that the tax pack info is only applicable to those who invested in solar. I would just like to hear from somebody who has a blueberry investment and who received a tax break for depreciation. I don't need...

    Yeah, I'm completely with you on this! i even approached Fedgroup to ask them why we got so little if ZA had such a great blueberry year, but sadly they did not bother to respond. I hope that our March payout will be better. I feel like we were screwed.

    Fedgroup - Impact Farming Investment

    I didn't have luck with receiving a tax return for depreciation of my blueberry farming investment last year. I have since fired my tax consultant. As with all things finance, it really does seem better to just do it myself. Is there anyone who would be willing to explain how you completed your...
