Solar panel systems advice

[blacqueguy]

Hi all. I came across this solar system provider.. And not knowing much about same I thought I'd seek advice from this forum.

Would investing in the attached system be worthwhile

Run a mile

I would expect a serious business to at least use correct grammar before handing over my hard-earned investment.

An MPPT inverter is more efficient at harvesting energy from solar panels. About 15% better than the alternative

If they can't spell correctly then what else can't they do....
Inverter not inventer
mppt not mptt

Stage 6 loadshedding eats gel batteries for breakfast. Be prepared to replace them in 6 months.

The grammar thing is overrated to be honest, yes it's nice to speak good English but that does not translate to anything as far as your work ethic and competence is concerned.

Solar will help a great deal with that but it sounds ridiculous to spend R37k and still end up with Gel batteries.

Also, are they quoting on a Cherry or Toyota? A simple 5kVa spec doesn't mean much.

Lets agree to disagree. If you're so careless as to not type the ad properly, imagine what else you'll be careless with.

Correct grammar, especially spelling, on business websites, flyers, ads, etc is different to being able to communicate and speak good English. I get that not everyone will speak the same English.

They don't even check if they use the right terminology.

It lacks critical basic technical information on what you are getting.

Thank you so much for all your inputs. Could I get which battery is best since gel is a no no.. And is it mppt or mptt inverters... If it's one of the two which is better and why.. I get that some of you are more knowledgeable when it comes to this, could you respond with the aim to assist and educate... Someone critiqued 5kva...kindly recommend a good combination... Thank you in advance..
