What to know locally in Kimberley
Heat is the main threat to batteries in Kimberley, so keep lithium modules indoors, away from a hot north wall. Gate motor batteries in Hadison Park and Belgravia complexes wear out quickly in summer. Homes in Galeshewe and Roodepan often upgrade lead acid trolleys to 12V lithium. Old lead acid batteries go to scrap dealers in the industrial area, and lithium to a recycler.
Power in Kimberley
Kimberley is a long way from the next big city, and that distance changes how backup power works here. Sol Plaatje Municipality supplies the city and buys bulk from Eskom, and in parts of the older municipal network faults, ageing equipment and cable theft cause outages that can take time to fix. Summers are very hot and dry, with sudden thunderstorms and lightning, and winters bring cold nights. Homes in Hadison Park and Royldene back up lights, wifi, fans and the gate. Government offices, clinics and shops want UPS and inverters for computers, fridges and card machines. Keep batteries in a cool, shaded room, and keep spares in mind, since stock may come from further afield.
Who asks for inverter batteries around Kimberley, most often first:
- Homeowners: a new lithium battery for the inverter that came with the house
- Offices and home offices: upgrading an office inverter from lead acid to lithium for longer runtime
- Clinics, surgeries and care homes: matched batteries for a surgery inverter keeping fridges and computers running
