Single Phase Combos

3-Phase Combos

Understanding Your Combo: Key Features at a Glance

See the essential details of each combo with our information tiles. From inverter capacity to battery lifespan, we've made it easy to compare the most important specifications. These insights will help you choose the perfect solution for your energy needs, ensuring you get the most reliable and efficient performance from your setup.

Inverter Max Capacity

This tile displays the maximum continuous output power the inverter can handle, measured in kilowatts (kW). It reflects the total power required by all the appliances connected to your combo. Make sure the total kW of your connected devices does not exceed this limit for optimal performance.

Inverter Max PV Power

Here you’ll find the maximum wattage of solar panels that can be connected to your inverter. The inverter’s PV (Photovoltaic) power capacity ensures it can handle the solar energy input. Select a combo with enough PV capacity to meet your energy production needs.

Inverter Warranty

This tile shows the warranty period offered by the manufacturer for the inverter. It’s important to know the coverage duration and any conditions that apply, so you’re assured of product support in case of issues over the years.

Battery Total Capacity

Displays the total energy the battery can store, measured in watt-hours (Wh). This capacity indicates how much power is available to use when the battery is fully charged. Choose a battery with enough capacity to power your essential devices during outages.

Battery Total Cycles

This tile shows the total number of charge and discharge cycles the battery can undergo at 80% Depth of Discharge (DOD). The higher the cycles, the longer your battery will last. It's key to long-term performance and value.

Battery Warranty

This section details the warranty period for the battery, provided by the manufacturer. Understanding the length of the coverage and conditions ensures peace of mind in knowing your investment is protected against potential defects or issues.

Reliable & Secure Delivery with The Courier Guy

At Solar8, we understand that solar equipment—especially solar panels—requires careful handling during transportation to ensure safety, longevity, and peak performance. That’s why we partner with The Courier Guy, a trusted local courier, to deliver your order quickly and securely across South Africa.

Safe Handling of Solar Panels

Solar panels are highly sensitive to impact—even a minor bump or crack, which may not be visible, can cause internal damage that affects long-term performance. In worst-case scenarios, hidden damage can lead to safety hazards, such as electrical faults or fire risks, over time.

✅ To prevent damage and ensure safe transport, we:

✅ Securely strap and shrink-wrap solar panels onto a pallet for stability.

✅ Transport them in a covered truck to shield against harsh weather and road debris.

✅ Minimize handling, reducing the risk of knocks, drops, or pressure points.

Delivery Process & What to Expect

Once your order is processed, you’ll receive a tracking number to monitor your shipment.
Delivery times vary based on your location, but we strive to get your order to you as quickly as possible.
Important: Upon delivery, please inspect your order carefully for any signs of damage. If anything seems amiss, notify us within 48 hours so we can assist in resolving the issue.

At Solar8, we take every precaution to ensure your solar equipment arrives in perfect condition, ready for installation. Safe delivery = safe solar power! 🚚☀

Wall Mount vs. Rack Mount Battery Banks
Choosing the Right Setup for Your Needs

Discover the key differences between wall-mounted and rack-mounted battery banks to determine which configuration best suits your space, energy requirements, and future plans. Solar8 Combos are supplied with standard wall mounting kits. If you prefer a rack-mounted configuration, please inform your consultant for assistance with this option.
