At this point the cool kids on the DIY forums have worked out exactly how to build your own powerwall equivalent using LFP cells bought directly from China. It's enough of a savings to make it a worthwhile project.
- paulhart 5y agodo you have links for that?
- rootusrootus 5y agoMy personal favorite is DIY Solar Forum. I'm more into LFP batteries and solar for my RV than for my house, but here is a direct link to their DIY Powerwall subforum: https://diysolarforum.com/forums/diy-powerwalls.25/ https://diysolarforum.com/forums/diy-powerwalls.25/

- rodgerd 5y agoThe cool kids who are a lot braver about their house burning down or local grid problems being blamed on them that I am.
