Does anyone on this forum own an EV. Be honest!
I lost you?? The batteries I'm refering to cost $200 each and there are 10 or 15 of them (maybe more) for a solar panel array depending on energy requirements. The more juice you use in your house or business the more panels and batteries you need. The more panels and the more batteries the more initial cost. My close friend paid 45K for his solar panels and back up system including installation. Even if he paid 2K a year for electricity before the solar system was installed it would still take him over 20 years to recoup his money....and that's if batteries never need replacement (not likely) and if there are no issues with the solar panel (also not likely).You lost me there. I've had to replace my batteries for my computer UPS every few years. Granted, it's pretty cool. I can remain on the computer for maybe half an hour when the power is out if I am just on FABO.
I got it back in the early 2000's if I remember right. Two batteries cost about $50 on amazon. Now scale that up for an entire house, not just one computer for half an hour.
