Cape Town notes on batteries
Lithium modules are standard in Sea Point and Green Point flats where space is tight, and the salt air on the seaboard means terminals should be checked. Gate motors in Constantia and Tokai estates need new batteries after a run of outages. Scrap dealers in Salt River and Epping buy old lead acid, and lithium recyclers serve Montague Gardens.
Power in Cape Town
The City of Cape Town supplies most of the metro, with Eskom supplying some areas directly. The wind is the local troublemaker: south-easters in summer and cold-front storms in winter bring down lines and trip feeders, and cable theft and substation faults add to the outages in parts. Townhouse complexes in the southern suburbs and the Atlantic seaboard ask for inverters that fit in small spaces, and businesses in Woodstock, Epping and Montague Gardens ask for UPS units and office backup. Many households in Claremont and Rondebosch add solar to a hybrid system. Wet winters and salt air near the coast are hard on equipment, so ask installers how the kit is protected.

- Homeowners: a new battery so the home computer UPS gives time to save and shut down
