What to look for in a new battery
Power cuts
Some batteries do not provide backup if there is a power cut. Is this essential for you? If so it may require some rewiring, and you will need a larger storage capacity to accommodate that reserve.
Type of battery
Most home energy storage batteries are lithium-ion, these are lighter, smaller and longer lasting than lead-acid batteries. Choose a type of battery based on baneftis.
Usable capacity
Useable capacity is less than total battery capacity, because batteries should not be discharged completely as it damages them.
Number of cycles
If you know the number of warrantied cycles you can work out how many kWh the battery will give you e.g. 10,000 cycles of a 12 kWh battery will give roughly 120,000 kWh.
