“Hey Cory, We are an experienced Victron installer based in Cape Town (with Fronius experience). If we can help your project in any way—either as volunteers or with monitoring—just shout. It looks like a worthwhile project. Best of luck in 2026!”
“Will the current lizards be compatible with the DC systems, or is it necessary to upgrade them too?”
“Thank goodness it's being kept on a good sturdy leash - I've heard ram prices are on the up at the moment.”
“Reminder: also keep in mind the construction carrying capacity of the roof. If that's the state of electrics, I assume the roofs won't be constructed to carry the wind load and the weight of solar, and have you walking around on them. From a fellow solar installer. Don't fall through roofs, don't let panels blow away in a tropical storm.”
“Every new home in the UK should have solar as standard.”
“Bro just flies halfway across the world without properly planning the flight.”
“I don't usually comment on videos, however the message here so strong it's worthwhile for everyone to hear it both sparks and and non. I'd even go as far to say that this channel was worth its creation for this video alone.”
“It's good to see another electrician support this. Too many are against a technology that has been proven to work for a long time in another country, just to protect their own interests.”
“The race to the bottom is not just Electricians, it's across the economic world.”
“It’s quite common to see better DIY work than “professional”. One wants a good system to work for years safely, the other just wants to grab the money.”
“So you have Artisan quoting £1000-£2000 for an EICR and wonder why customers end up being wary of electrians and just default to the cheapest. The industry is so up its self with unrealistic and greedy earning expectations it's contributed to this issue.”
“TBH it's probably cheaper to rebuild your burnt-down house than get Artisan Electrics to do an EICR”
“7:20 man has 6 holes in his hub and has trouble finding 3 equally spaced lines lmao”
“Well done Cory. You seemed very respectful with their equipment, not being an annoying influencer type. I’m happy to hear the people you are staying with there are lovely. Merry Christmas”
“Rest in power Cornelius”
“As a non tradsman I do this: Do as much as possible myself; plastering, painting, changing sockets, taps, anything I can do competently. Then I have a very small number of tradespeople I trust. They are not the cheapest ( probably - I don't actually know, as I never get quotes from others), but they are professionals, and typically I have found them through word of mouth. Good tradespeople are a treasure, and should be treated as such.”
“My dad was a carpenter and i can confirm, Ferret meat is horrible but i loved crawling through them dark tunnels!!!!”
“First class piece of proper documentary fit for today’s audience. Clever mix of being an electrician mixed with a you tube content maker mixed with travel documentary. You’ve moved on so far from where you were. It would be great if someone could spot this and move you on to a bigger an audience.”
“I am sure we can make it work Cory! Let's work on it a bit together!🙌”
“Lil hack for any timber in the ground, bitumen roof paint 👌”
“They haven't updated the rules for Northern Ireland yet for plug in solar, but this year I began using a solar generator box and 2 panels and have reduced my bill from £440 a quarter to £145, I haven't connected to mains but I swapped all the lighting in my house to rechargeable bulbs and charge them from my box and I run my TV etc at night directly from the box, the only electric I pay for is generally just appliances in the kitchen, it has been life changing and a fun hobby, you feel like your beating the system.”
“"Your comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothings ever gonna grow there" would make a great t shirt”
“I'm from South South Africa, and I same same work as you. And we deal with what you saw on regular basis. So nothing new we do best with what we have. Awesome channel.”
“EU should legislate that all EV batteries be capable of reuse as a home battery with standard controllers, connectors, protocols etc.”
