NB - WARRANTY INFORMATION (BELOW DOES NOT APPLY IF YOU UPGRADE TO LITHIUM BATTERIES ABOVE)
The standard batteries in this kit are rated to last 150-200 cycles (load sheddings).
During occasional load shedding, at stage 1-2, the average life span is 2 years.
Unfortunately, during constant load shedding, atstage 2 - 6, these cycles will bedepleted within a few months.
The batteries will also be further degradeddue to insufficient time to recharge fully in between load shedding cycles.
**Please note that as soon as the batteries stop lasting, unfortunately the warranty becomes void, as this means that the batteries have depleted their cycles and reached the end of their life.
Please always keep the total load shedding count of 150-200 cycles (high cycle batteries) or 200-250 cycles (deep cycle batteries) in mind when running the system.
Therefore, during constant stage 2-6, we highly recommend keeping the inverters power switch OFF. Then, only switch it on when the need for backup power is crucial.
This will preserve the longevity of the batteries (please keep it plugged in to the wall permanently to keep it charged).

You need an inverter system. See below Frequently Asked Questions on how they work:
Q) What is an inverter system and what does it do do?It is an inverter unit coupled with a battery which provides power when there is load shedding. It keeps its battery charged when there is Eskom power. As soon as Eskom power cuts, the system instantly transfers over to battery power so you can keep your lights, TV, computers (excluding Apple MAC Desktops only), chargers and wifi running during load shedding
Q) Is it easy to connect up? Do I have to fiddle with electronics?It is super easy The system is plug and play.The inverter has a regular 3 pin plug that goes into the wall. You then have a 3 way multiplug on the inverter that allows you to connect any appliance you want. Keep the appliances connected at all times, the inverter will automatically switch to battery as soon as it detects Eskom power is down.
Q) How much backup time will I have on the unit before normal Eskom power come back on to recharge the battery?Assume a computer, TV, and desk lamp are connected to the inverter:This unitwill last 4-6 hours
Only want a lamp, wifi router and laptop connected to the inverter:This unit will last 10-12 hours
Q) What appliances can I run on the inverter system?Our plug and play systems will run any appliance that has low power usage and does not have a motor. So you can run TVs, computers, wifi, lights, chargers, etc.Fridges, fans, heaters are not recommended to be connected to inverters. For those items, we can suggest a more specialised system - please click "contact us" and let us know your requirements.
PLEASE NOTE: This unit is not suitable for use with an Apple IMAC as they require pure sine wave
Q) Can I connect the inverter to my houses DB (electric) board so that my whole house is powered when Eskom does load shedding?Sure you can - It does come more expensive than the plug and play solution, but please feel free to"contact us" we will pop through a customized quote.
