    Not lower than 10 % and not higher than 90 charge is a good average ? I am told some batteries have built in 10 % compensation, so going from 100 % to 0 % is not an issue.

    If you are looking for a money saving solution, I would be using the batteries to the max. J

    Something to note there is already talk of better battery technology in pipe line, would you need your batteries to last 10 years?

    This whole backup trend is going break people, especially the ones who are taking second bonds to pay off large installs over 25 year bond terms

    I have seen how some of these replacement batteries have cleaned out customer life savings. Repo rate expected to hit 6 % by the end of the year. Fuel price to go up over R3 next week and expected to hit R30 by the end of the year. Only the rich and smart are going to survive.
