    Mecer 2400VA Inverter (Community Support) - Part 2

    Total wattage being used is less than 300W normal usage. The unit is constantly plugged in. I am eskom grid and not city of Cape Town. I get loadshedding very often currently 4 times a day. It is very easily gone through its charge cycles.

    Hi, I bought gel batteries to hold me over. I'm looking into 5kw hybrid inverter (luxpower or Sunsynk) that will be wired into the BD and have the option for solar. I run my business from home and can't afford to be offline this often and I can't justify having to replace batteries every 12...

    Hi, Thank you. I have ordered new batteries which arrive next week. I was hoping I could of saved at least one of these batteries. Is it worth trying to trickle charge them?

    Hi, I'm currently in loadshedding. I put a much higher load through the system then I usually do. Battery 1) 12.63V Battery 2) 12.71V Terminals are tight. I am currently running a monitor, laptop and modem at 236v. If I put the TV and Soundbar on it goes to 239V.

    Morning, System has been resting (unplug at mains and unit turn off) for 4hrs. Battery 1) 13.16v Battery 2) 13.18v I'm assuming the batteries are healthy and something else is causing the battery drain or could it still be an imbalanced battery?

    Hi, apologies how do I do that? I tested it during loadshedding. Disconnected the unit and used the multimeter.
