People still often use lead acid for solar storage as energy density is less of a concern when you are just stacking them on a shelf.

remotelove@lemmy.ca 1 year agoHonestly, that is something that really interests me. If there is anything that I am holding out for, it’s solid state lithium batteries. (A significant battery bank is high on my list of requirements and having garage full of current generation li-ion batteries still makes me cringe a little.) Prices should be much better once they go into mass production for EVs. Hopefully.

Sadly, I am space constrained so no lead acid batteries for me. Having the ability to actually maintain my own batteries would have its perks though.

You wouldnt need a garage full of batteries. Something like this should work: signaturesolar.com/eg4-lifepower4-lithium-batteri…
