vorsprung on Trade-in a Sungrow Inverter Towards a New Sungrow Hybrid Inverter & Battery System: Apply via Your Solar Installer or Retailer

Ah thanks. Shame to have such a big pile of batteries just calendar degrading in an EV especially if you don't drive often.

Are we allowed to use EVs as a grid-connected battery yet?

I have a Fire tv dongle and the Amazon crap annoyed me so much that I converted it to google via LineageOS

raperozbargain on Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum & Cord Grippers 6-Pack $340 + Delivery (Free 90 Min Uber Delivery/ C&C) @ The Good Guys

Unless they have bigger batteries, or run for a shorter time, I doubt they have more power. I'd say just pay less for similar quality…

Jimothy Wongingtons on 50% off Creatine Monohydrate 1kg $32.50 + $9.99 Shipping @ BlackBelt Protein

Thanks, this mob seem more credible in my eyes by providing 20-odd regular test results. Some of the older test were more detailed too.…

If I had to get another cordless, this is what I would do too. The lithium battery tech is the same, and that is the limiting factor in…

VerticallyIntegrated on Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner $383.99 Delivered @ Amazon AU

Yes, good advice. I was thinking of doing that (am in the ALDI battery ecosystem so would probably need to print my own adapter), but…

Well they had to do something. It's not their fault that current battery tech means the battery is only about 65 Watt-hours (I believe).…

I would like to try on the basis of simply being not fit for purpose

It suffers the same problem, I can attest.

Neither! Check comments online
