Many homes on the grid, not just those with off-grid energy solutions, need home battery backups to improve energy efficiency, save money, and to increase independence.  Homeowners (and businesses) around the country are increasingly turning to solutions in the form of advanced lithium home battery backups for their reliability, consistency, long-lasting performance, and overall power.  One of […]

Homes with supplemental energy systems, like solar energy systems, need home battery backups. These systems store the surplus energy generated by the alternative system so that it can be used during non-peak hours.  These home battery backup systems are absolutely necessary for off-grid infrastructure, but even for grid-tied systems, a battery energy storage system will deliver […]

The world of batteries is complex enough even without introducing an additional layer of specificity, such as that associated with lithium solar batteries for homes, which are popular choices for home battery backup systems. To make things easier, we compiled some of the more common terms associated with rechargeable lithium batteries, specifically solar batteries for homes and small businesses, […]

Still using an AGM battery in your camper or for some other application? It might be time to upgrade to a LiFePO4 battery from us. The benefits are many. We’ll cover them here, along with some basic information on the distinction between AGM batteries and other lead-acid batteries.  Sure, AGM Batteries Are Better Than Some Lead-Acid Batteries, […]

There are still some intransigent folks out there that are leery of lithium batteries because they’re afraid they aren’t safe.  Those concerns today are largely unfounded, especially when the lithium battery is made with a stable cathode material, and equally importantly, when the battery is managed by a battery management system.  This short post will shed some […]

It’s no secret that a home solar system can help put money back in your pocket, make your house less dependent on the electrical grid, and potentially even reduce your home’s carbon footprint.  But a residential solar system doesn’t offer all that it could in the absence of a solar battery bank, whether you are […]

Even though the term “lithium battery” is loosely applied to all types of batteries that use lithium in the cathode material, the truth is that there is considerable variation in battery chemistry, and while most rechargeable lithium batteries have a lot in common, the differences in battery chemistry gives each of them unique attributes and […]

If you’ve managed a campus fleet for more than a few years, you already know the pattern. The Club Cars that used to glide across campus now crawl. You’ve got batteries that barely last a shift, cables that corrode, and carts that seem to spend more time on chargers than on pavement. That’s usually when […]

Home solar systems can be a great way to reduce your family’s reliance on the energy grid as well as to reduce your household’s carbon footprint. But even if that were not the case, in some instances, the installation of a solar system can be a highly effective way to reduce energy costs, putting money […]

Yes, lead-acid golf cart batteries are more widely available, and yes, they cost less (upfront) but this short post will show that golf cart lithium batteries ultimately deliver more value. So, with no further ado, let’s get into this. 1. They’re potentially more environmentally friendly in more than one way Obviously, lead-acid batteries are made […]
