> For one point of reference, a 10 year old Nissan LEAF EV battery -- which were tiny compared to the batteries that come in new EVs today -- will still have more usable capacity in it than a brand new $11,000 Tesla Powerwall for whole-home battery backup and solar storage.
Before the pandemic sent used cars prices to the moon, there were people buying used Bolts (and probably Leafs, I imagine) to park them permanently just to use the battery capacity for their off-grid home. Apparently it was cost effective, and the Bolt wiring is pretty straightforward to work with.
