[QUOTE="Sound_Hound_SA, post: 1121685, member: 22921"] That is good power from your panels All subject to load and the household requirements we always advise customers that a 5kw should be aimed at small to medium size houses with 2 to 4 people in the house. For the average customer a 5kw unit does the job as some of them are not heavy on usage, on the other hand we have had customers who started with 5kw and upgraded to 8kw or a second 5kw, on the other side of the coin we have had guys do 8kw and ask for a second 8kw unit all these are based on the needs of the household/family Personally a single 8kw is ample for my house hold having the non essential side of the sunsynk is my saving grace as my essential loads during the day (washing, ironing, dishwasher, aircons) pull up to 6kw and having the geyser/heatpump/oven on non essential that can exceed 5kw easily as such I would of exceeded the capabilities of the 5kw unit in no time In any case having control over the geyser is a big win but automating it to work with your system is even a bigger win. Thanks to things like solar assistant, home assistant and sonoff smart breakers. [/QUOTE]
