READ MOREA bigger battery is like a bigger barrel, because it holds more energy (water). You might see a 2-volt battery that is rated to store 1100 amp-hours. That means the battery can put out 55 amps for 20 hours. At 2 volts, that means the battery would be making 110 watts at any given time (2 volts x 55 amps = 110 watts).
READ MOREWith 97.5% roundtrip efficiency, the LG RESU Prime appears to be the most efficient solar battery on the market. If you''re load shifting on a daily basis (because of time of use rates or unfavorable export rates) that extra 7-10% efficiency quickly adds up to greater bill savings than a typical AC-coupled battery.
