Hi Guys

With so many option out there regarding Inverter and Battery setups. I would like to know what brands you use ? And how long do the battery actually last ? What batteries to stay away from etc. And other other valuable advice would be helpful.

Thanks
 
My advice would be to first review all the existing threads on the subject.
 
What do you want to do with it.

Power a PC or power the house. You want solar panels or charge from Eskdom. How much wattage do you want.


I have no idea on wattage but ideally I want to power the following. Solar Panels to charge the batteries if that is too expensive then I will use eskom (Although it's not like eskom is cheap btw)

Fridge and Freezer
65 inch tv
My PC with 2 monitors
Alarm
Garage Motors
A few room lights when needed (they are LEDs
Fibre router, 1 x switch, 2 x APs

Check out the Pure Sine Inverters from @GeeWiz .

Also check https://powerforum.co.za on what is the best quality and where to buy. It probably all depends on your budget.
