[VIC] Best 6ish Kwh Solar System Deal

Hi,

I'm looking at solar and I've been bombarded with "Deals" from all kinds of companies. I want an around 6Kwh system that I can add batteries to easily in the future. I've seen a deal for a 6.6kw syatem from Hello Solar for $3990 that looks pretty good (http://www.hellosolar.com.au/).

Any ozbargainers have any further advice?

  • Get a fronius inverter

  • solaredge inverter with DC optimisers

  • I dunno about vic but in some states you cant feed into the grid more if you have more than 5kw.

    Get a monitored system.

    • Maybe a Sunnyboy inverter with panasonic panels. +

    The cheapest deal will get you the cheapest components fitted by a 'maybe qualified' underpaid installer doing the job as per how much he/she is paid to do it with the cheapest connectors available.

    So, maybe check what components are available in your price range, inverter, panels, connectors, junctions, installer.

    Then, find the cheapest that matches it all.

  • look at website, solarquotes.com.au
    They have list of reputable solar installers, you put in your postcode and find nearest 3 firms. This site seems to be reputable, run by independent professionals. Also have most interesting and worthwhile blogs about energy efficiency and all things solar.

  • Cheapest may not be best.

    Pick a local reputable firm, not one of those mobs that is a website front and farms out work to contractors using the cheapest components they can find.

  • We got 5.9kw system with hello solar in March. We paid $13k to get an electric ducted heating/cooling system so solar panels would reduce costs. Turns out Hello solar gave us false promises, false information, false hopes, false data, improper assessment, incorrect judgement, cheapest crapiest panels that exist. We took them to VCAT after 2 experts told us we d been scammed but hello solar want to scam us out of more money now. They think they can hide behind a company name & bully the little guys? Well public reviews will be honest and they will be everywhere for all to see. I have the evidence and I will tell the truth so no one has to endure what hello solar have put us through. Run the other way and get a recognised and trusted operator. Remote assessments are totally inaccurate. Panels are the worst on the market. They lied and are promising results from other states …I could go on and on … avoid hello solar at all costs.
