We love installing myenergi Zappi GLO EV chargers! ⚡🔋

Here’s a recent installation completed for a client in Dunoon, allowing them to conveniently charge their electric vehicle at home overnight.

The client will also be taking advantage of Octopus Energy’s smart EV tariff, helping them charge at cheaper times and reduce their running costs.

Already got solar on the roof?

Here's the bit most people don't realise. Your panels generate most of their power in the middle of the day — exactly when the house is empty. Everything you don't use goes straight back out to the grid for pennies, and then you buy it back at full price at six o'clock when the kettle, the oven and the telly all come on at once.

A battery fixes that. It stores what you generate during the day and gives it back to you in the evening, so you're running the house on your own electricity instead of buying it twice over.

If you've had panels up for a few years and you're not sure whether a battery stacks up for your setup- message us and we'll assess your existing setup and provide you with a free quote for battery storage🔋 ☀️

Inspection and Testing is crucial for ensuring electrical safety in your home or business.

An Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) guarantees that new installations meet the BS 7671 standards, while an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) provides a thorough assessment of existing setups to identify potential issues before they escalate.

In Scotland, private landlords must conduct EICRs every five years to ensure tenant safety. 🏡⚡

As NAPIT registered electricians, we're independently inspected on a regular basis, we work to BS 7671, and every job is certified and registered properly

Solar install completed in Tighnabruaich- Viridian 445W panels paired with EcoFlow battery and inverter — a proper setup for Argyll living.

A quick bit of info on why solar works better up here than people expect:

Panels run on daylight, not heat. Solar cells actually lose efficiency as they get hot, so a bright Scottish day can outperform a baking one down south.

🔋 10kW EcoFlow battery stores the daytime surplus so you're still running on your own power at 9pm, or on a dark winter morning
💷 Charge the battery on cheap overnight rates too, then use it through the expensive peak hours
🔌 Export anything you don't need back to the grid for SEG payments
