Could I ask a favour, could you share a side profile pic. I need to see how much it ends up being away from the wall. I have literally all the same equipment you have being installed in the next few days (just one battery though) and with solar panels

Busy getting prices on PV.

What happened to your old system? Wife knicked it in the divorce?

Maybe just get some proper rawl bolts. Apparently, the ones that come with the inverter are kak. That's what my installer said.

Bliksem thats, not a bad price. Are they legit ?

Yes they are as u have purchased these panels from them and they registered the warranty as well.

I used big rawl bolts. Needed a 14mm concrete drill bit.

I have tons of those. Lol. Problem solved.

M10 or M12 should do. Best option is probably to take the bundled bolts with when you go buy the new ones

So i can get 455w JA Panels at R2645 incl. per panel.
I have space for 16. One roof 8 panels and another roof 8 panel.
Would these be fine with the 8kw Sunsynk?

Yes - those should be perfect - you MIGHT even be able to push 9 per MPPT but 8 is definitely fine and safe

I am putting up 16x 460W panels. 8 per string should be fine with enough margin on the voltage side. Also leaves you the option of adding another string in parallel if you ever need to.
