I had a home battery put in recently and switched over to wholesale power...and the most shocking thing has been how little power our reverse cycle air conditioners actually use. Like, we bought them for efficiency, but between solar panels and a battery I can actually just have them on all night and we might just barely run out if we had good sun that day. Basically a bunch of technology has just crossed over to make being comfortable not just affordable, but visibly so (which would've been great when I was a kid - it made a huge difference when I hooked the power monitoring up for my dad and proved to him that he should just set the AC to a target temperature and the fastest fan speed he could stand the sound of and it would use less power...and he actually did it!)
