Look at how you use electricity
Start with your electricity bills and the times you use the most power. Storage should match your household routine and existing solar.
Check the complete system
Battery and inverter compatibility, installation position and monitoring are part of the decision. Ask your installer to explain the proposed configuration.
Discuss backup separately
Backup during an outage depends on the equipment and installation design. Confirm which circuits could be supported.
