Batteries in Stellenbosch: local notes
Stellenbosch winters can be cold in an outside storeroom, and some lithium batteries will not charge near freezing, so homes in Uniepark and Paradyskloof are better off with the bank in the house. Farms towards Jamestown and the Devon Valley still run some lead acid for pumps and fences. Security estates near Paradyskloof go through gate and boom batteries steadily. Old lead acid goes to scrap dealers in Plankenbrug; lithium needs a specialist recycler.
Stellenbosch: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Three very different clients shape backup power here. Stellenbosch Municipality supplies the town, with Eskom on some farms and outlying areas, and outages come from winter storms, wind, cable theft and faults, and long farm lines can be slow to restore. The university, Technopark's tech businesses and the wine estates set the mix: student digs want router UPS units and power stations, offices want UPS units and servers on backup, and cellars want 3 phase systems on pumps and cold rooms. Homes in Die Boord, Uniepark and Mostertsdrift ask for inverters with lithium banks. Winters are wet and cold and summers hot, so ask about where the battery should go.
Typical inverter batteries requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a new lithium battery for the inverter that came with the house
- Farms and smallholdings: a bigger battery bank for the farmhouse inverter and the electric fence
- Offices and home offices: upgrading an office inverter from lead acid to lithium for longer runtime
