    Marius's upgrade

    That's sad dude :( I had a Genny and inverter service scheduled in the same week (not smart) and then Eskom decided to cut for 9 hours. Just made it in all the ups's lying around the house. Hope you bounce back.

    Heater Placement(s)

    Well no pump there are more than enough "hole / Cut outs" at the top and bottom. I assumed (maybe that where I went wrong ;)) that would be good enough for circulation. I want heat dissipation really... dunno I could try get a pump for it if its REALLY needed?

    Heater Placement(s)

    Hi guys, So I have a very cool "compartment" that was built into the far corner of my tank. Its basically some glass with Black perspects with laser cut holes (like the over flow's holes) at the bottom and at the top to allow water flow. I want to put a heater in there as a backup when the...

    Braces Yes or No?

    Take it from me braces are always a good idea, now which braces is a different story depending on your look or need. I.e. Euro bracing, bottom bracing, cross bracing I have 33mm glass and it still has a bow (less than 0.5mm but its still bowing) water is a powerful thing.

    Group Buy

    eish... Let me keep quiet on this one :) There are really two sides to the story and both are correct: 1. The "consumer" importing on their own 2. The local supplier Both have their pro's and con's, costs and savings. I am all for supporting local suppliers, I am a relationship...

    Guess what I just preordered

    I hear you but this is not a price discussion, I couldn't care less what the cost is. I just want to have hot water to shower, DSTV for the wife, washing machines, fridges etc. And the tank. With the volume of water I have its .5 deg on average an hour in temp. Airpumps are cheap, flow is...

    Guess what I just preordered

    Worst case scenario - Use Genny to charge batteries (like I do for the 2kva inverters now). Not ideal but it works. Not interested in the solar BullSh1t. EVEN WORSE WORSE case - get my handy okie guy dude that works by me, to load it and take it to the in-laws or friends or somewhere with...
