Questions & Answers

QLDZDR
QLDZDR · 

The Solar Battery Group TV advertisment implies that Solar Battery will avoid the problem of power blackouts. We have been considering a battery add-on to our existing 3 phase solar panels, but the advantages of having backup power automatically come on during a Queensland blackout was not a feature of batteries according to electricians. We would need to have a backup generator if we wanted guaranteed continuous power during a blackout.
So is the TV ad misleading?

Bruce
Bruce · 

As long as you have power in the battery you should have power to the hose in a blackout.
When the battery runs out then there is no power.

Thanks for your answer, Solar Battery Group haven't replied to my emailed enquiry, so I was hoping they monitored this website

QLDZDR
QLDZDR · 

WOW!!!
reading about what other people are saying...
.... spending $17,000 on a battery and almost power bill neutral???
I am guessing there was $10,000 spent on solar panels too. So how long does it take to become power bill neutral when that $27,000 is factored in?

We were fed the lie over ten years ago, that a 2.5kW solar system (they didn't even know about batteries then) would mean we never have to see a power bill again....
How do those salespeople sleep at night?

When will I get my deposit back? I called with an enquiry about getting solar for a new home that I'm awaiting settlement on, ie really just wanted price and info on availability. Jake the Salesman told me I needed to pay a deposit to put a system on hold as they were selling fast but I've since found that I will need to get my meterbox upgraded so have decided it's out of my price range to go ahead with getting solar. I've signed nothing, filled out none of the paperwork you sent me AND called both Jake (no response, didn't answer and ignored message) and your reception (was told you'd be in touch soon) but STILL no refund! Very angry EX customer here, seems like a con to me! You're quick to take $$$ but doesn't seem so easy for you to refund the money! When will someone be in touch with me about this or who do I contact to make an official complaint?

We 10kW solar system installed in July this year. We got a letter in the mailbox stating the battery price is just under $4k. Is this correct? How much the battery can hold?

Hey Urvi. That's right - we are running that promotion on the 2.9kwh Alpha B3 battery, which is the most popular solar battery in Australia. I'd suggest chatting with one of our solar specialists so you can discuss what would be best for your home, as solar solutions aren't always a one-size-fits-all depending on your house size, number of panels, wattage, usage, number of people in the home etc.

Happy to discuss your circumstances and evaluate the best options for you,
Urvi. Give us a bell - 1300 223 224 - or flick us a message and we'll give you a ring when it suits. Cheers

10kW solar, but they only spec less than 3kW of battery??? seems like they are under specifying like the beginning of solar systems when they told us that a 1.5kW to 2.5kW was enough to reduce electricity bill to nothing
