    Adjustable angle solution for Solar panels

    Thanks for this, nice to see the actual numbers. I am sure I can use the existing frame and add some additional angled brackets. Adding more panels requires more PV wiring, more frame components anyway, more expensive overall labor with CoC, more load on the roof, etc...

    Adjustable angle solution for Solar panels

    I was already thinking along these lines. Im sure if I raise them just a few degrees, maybe from the current 10 deg to 20-25 it would make a big difference in winter and in summer the difference would be ok since im usually fully charged by 11:30 anyway. Changing the rails are by far the...

    Adjustable angle solution for Solar panels

    Panels are relatively cheap, but it also comes with a whole bunch of other costs especially if one MPPT is already maxed. Also dont really have the space for it. Really just seeking advice on the brackets, like make, model, suppliers, etc...

    Adjustable angle solution for Solar panels

    Hi everyone, Been searching around the forums, but didnt really find what I am looking for. I have a 10 degree steel roof with some panels mounted. This is perfectly fine for summer, but in the winter months my solar productivity drops dramatically. I am looking for some real life experience...

    Parallel import S25 Ultra

    Any idea if this would work with the A56? Im on the fence on buying what I suspect is a grey import from Amazon local. The price is about 3K difference. Either this or the Redmi Note 14+ for a similar price. Which link do you use to get the South African variant?

    Hibachi style or insert braai

    The reason I dont want to build up a big braai, which is why im considering a smaller one is that a large braai would block my view of the garden. So I want to build more of a brick / concrete platform with space to insert a smaller braai. Then I can look over the table / braai and enjoy the...

    Hibachi style or insert braai

    Hey Fella's, I have been using what I call a "purse" braai for a very long time. It's one of those portable ones you fold out. Now Im actually building a braai area and still like the idea of a semi portable braai placed on top of a table rather than fully built in. I very much like the idea...

    Netogy Nova - sound issues

    Hiya folks, I have a relatively new Nova and have come across some sound issues where I am not sure if it's a Nova issue or an Android TV one (or even an app issue)... I can be playing Spotify and the sound just stops. The music continues to show via the progress bar, but no sound. From there...

    Netogy Nova Feedback

    I see everyone is saying that 5.1 audio is no problem for the Nova, but I'm struggling to get this to work. I have an old Denon connected to the TV via SPDIF (optical). If I play any Dolby test files via the TV via USB (old Samsung Smart), the AVR changes to Dolby Digital and 5.1 works, however...

    Corolla Cross - Claimed vs actual consumption

    This... Super annoying. Also the foot handbrake. Although you get used to it, I have actually pulled off a few times now forgetting it was on because its not so obvious anymore.

    Corolla Cross - Claimed vs actual consumption

    I went through the same mental gymnastics when deciding non hybrid vs hybrid. Eventually I decided the extra amount was worth it, but not because of consumption. It would take a couple of years of savings to break even. My main reasons for going hybrid were: eCVT gearbox - i.e. not a CVT...

    Toyota Corolla Cross (Rolla SUV)

    I've been going back and forward on this decision for a month, at first I decided that the normal petrol version would be ok. But in a test drive it did feel sluggish even on a city drive. I decided to test drive the Hybrid because I heard it was much peppier. Of all the research I did and the...
