Hi Guys,
First post here, I have an interesting problem that I hope someone can assist me with. Out here in sunny South Africa we go through fairly regular power cuts, now I have a small battery / inverter system that copes with my lights / tv etc but our biggest problem is the geyser. One knows that generally when there is a power outage the geyser is at the temperature one has set it at, but due to no power it slowly starts to cool. I have a 1Kw generator and I would like to know if there is something that can be put into the wiring between the generator and the geyser’s element (4kw) that will only allow the element to draw one Kw, thus keeping the temperature stable and allowing the generator to run?
Is this possible?
