The on-going, unprecedented loadshedding that is being experienced by South Africans is undoubtedly frustrating for most households and a liability for businesses. Blackouts and prolonged outages can cause power surges that can ultimately affect your electrical appliances. Your fridges, TV’s, computers, security systems and more, simply can’t escape the effects of surges. A power backup system or full solar installation will cost you far less in the long run. Setsolar have the solutions you need. Talk to our team and find out more about how you can save your electrical appliances.

More often than not, clients opt to run their solar installations on lead acid batteries. While this option is cheap, it isn’t ideal when there isn’t a regular source of electricity. Lead acid batteries are not capable of being completely recharged due to the on-going load shedding. This ultimately causes the lead acid battery to deteriorate significantly, reducing the lifespan and quality of performance. Lithium batteries are ultimately more cost effective. Contact our sales team and pick a package that suits your budget.

Lead acid batteries struggle to perform when load shedding is at stage 4 or higher, causing the battery to become fully discharged. However, lithium battery technology is better suited to a load-shedding environment of deep and frequent discharges. Lithium batteries are designed to have an increased lifespan even if they are repeatedly discharged. Pairing your solar system with a lithium battery can save you and your appliances.
