We finally did it! We got Solar Power and starting turning sun energy into electricity. ⚡️⚡️⚡️ We are currently completely off the grid (because there is no stable grid electric supply in Siargao at the moment due to Typhoon Odette ⚡️) This is our full solar installation Vlog.
Going Solar is something Sacha, Story and I have been talking about for such a long time. It took a super Typhoon to make us commit it to reality. But right now we couldn’t be happier.
It feels so liberating to be independent from the electricity company. No longer will we have to deal with Black outs / Brown outs or any colour of ‘outs’ 🤣.
We put our trust in Don Solar and his team from Surigao city. They take so much pride in their work and it shows.
- For those interested we invested in a 6.75kwp Solar panel setup (15 x 450w panels)
- We chose an DEYE 8kw Hybrid inverter (SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU) which will allow us to add more panels in the future and also sell power back to the grid when we over produce. (That’s right, once you've been approved, the electricity company has to pay you back in energy credits!)
- Then we store our solar power for the night time with a DYNESS (Powerbox F-10.0) 10kwh mega lithium ion battery. It looks insane when you see the whole set up ☺️
Price wise the whole system cost less than a 5 year old car, and Don is currently offering an install now pay later 0% monthly payment plan. (As of March 2022)
This isn’t an advert or a sponsorship, we paid for this with our own savings because we believe in the technology and it’s impact on the environment. Solar tech is SUPER cool and much more affordable than it used to be.
We are still in the testing phase but we are already blown away by this system and how it just works! We highly recommend sending Don a message even if it’s just to learn about how it works. ☺️ He’s honest , trustworthy and hard working.
