Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Has anyone had any experience with these ? I’ve only just become aware they exist. I have been off grid for 30 years and have ac which runs from my current system but I have spare panels in the shed doing nothing and thought with this system I could have ac going all day while I’m at work (and Sun is shining)and not have to worry about it being connected to my batteries etc.

Havnt been on for a while so I’ll add to my own post. Made use of the panels I had spare in the shed and hooked up to the new 7kw split system I purchased and all working well.Currently on heat mode given I’m in north west Vic and it’s been pretty cold.Great to come home on cold sunny days to a house that's toasty warm and I’ve not had to do a thing.it turns itself on and off and looks after itself.sun out it’s on,Sun gone it’s off.no battery or inverter needed.suits my system perfectly. Cheers Bush

16 x 195w 7kh unit Solar AC DC I have no association with them and I only put the unit in few weeks ago so early days but doing a fantastic job atm..It is pretty much plug and play.The lines are sealed and gassed as per the “Mr Cool” ones sold in usa so I did the install myself.
