    Cape Town opens first round of residential cash-for-power applications

    I agree with this. That meter cost has to go, though, otherwise, it is a non-starter. It has been this way for years. Last year, they promised to look to reduce significantly the 12k cost of this bi-directional meter but nothing has been forthcoming. You're still probably currently better off...

    Indeed. That is a significant limiting factor for sure.

    112c is what it says here...

    Ya, I saw that. Not very clear, hey... I'd be surprised if they were suddenly covering the whole cost...

    I can't find any information on the cost of the meter. Have they brought it down below 12k?

    September slightly lower than August. Probably all those weeks of cloud and rain. Things picking up nicely now that the sun is back [emoji295]

    Monthly Solar Production - Show us yours

    There were many days in the last month where there was loadshedding overnight (when two geysers fire up) followed by dark days with no sun and more loadshedding. Need to grid charge otherwise batteries deplete entirely and system shuts down. Summer is a different matter :)

    No, it's set to do various things at different times. Currently have it set for loadshedding preparedness. So grid charge from 05h00 to 17h00. SOC 50% until 09h00 then 80% till 17h00. Or something like that. For those dark days with zero sun and many hours of shedding.

    These intermittent spikes and dips in battery SOC, can someone remind me what causes it? And if it can be fixed.

    Rain and storm for Cpt

    Milnerton just received a nice soaking. Cold and moist is the theme of this weekend.

    Telkom FreeMe Family – 30GB, free calls, and free WhatsApp to share for R699

    Is it just me or has this package been completely discontinued by TelkomMobile? Is there anything like it? (one bundle of data and minutes shared across as many as 10 SIMs for one monthly subscription amount)
