    Peregrine Capital's High Growth H4 QI Hedge Fund has achieved great returns since its inception

    They started in 2000 and had an average annualized return of 23.67%, so if you invested R1mil with them in 2000, you'd have a return of R130mil now (as your initial investment grew 23.67% year on year) -G-

    3kW inverter with 2.75kWh battery for R49,968 backup power system tested

    "According to the Hubble AM-4’s specifications, we should get more than 6,000 charging cycles out of the battery at 50% DoD." I think that's why the OP set it to 50%. -G-

    Eskom says load-shedding is here to stay for the next six to 12 months

    Eskom price modelling tools lets you compare how much you will pay under proposed tariffs

    If the tariff change goes through, they will probably deduct the first R938 as the connection fee, and the rest then the actual electricity unit charge. So with R2000 purchase you'd probably end up with R1050 worth of electricity. -G-

    Mecer 2400VA Inverter (Community Support)

    The Revov 200Ah battery has bluetooth and you can see the BMS info using a phone app. There is an ability to enable/disable charging/discharging but you need the paid-pro version of the app for that.

    Opinions on "drop in" lithium battery replacements

    I've been running a pair of Revov 200Ah 2nd life LiFePO4 batteries on a Mecer 1440W inverter for about a week now, and during a 2 hour load shedding with 200-250W load, it drops by +- 15% (according to the BMS readings on the app). One thing I do have to add though, is that it helps a great...

    This is how criminals target cars and homes in South Africa: Tracker

    That is hogwash. In our street we've had isolated homes robbed with high walls and bushes, we've had isolated homes robbed with palisades that you could see the whole yard of, in broad-daylight. What we do suspect though why these homes were targeted, is because they bribed/threatened the...
