Take a look at the EG4 all-weather battery on our website via the previous link. That’s one of the most flexible, scalable, long-lasting and low-maintenance home battery backups on the market today, and is equipped with a long litany of features that improve performance and the consistency of power output, according to all of the virtues of lithium batteries […]

Once you determine that your home needs a battery ESS (energy storage system), you still have a lot of homework to do.  Is your home grid-tied or off grid? What sort of alternative energy system does it have? What are your current energy needs? How much storage will you need, based on balances of production […]

The EG4 GridBOSS is a power gateway and MID (more on that in a second) that serves as a single point of management for a home’s electrical energy power supply.  But what does it offer, beyond what it does? This short post will take a closer look into that. The EG4 GridBOSS, Demystified  Let’s start with what […]

The EG4 18kPV is only one of the photovoltaic inverters that we offer here at BigBattery, and like some of our other options, it is much more than just an inverter. This post will answer some of the main questions surrounding it and what it does.  The EG4 18kPV is fundamentally a solar inverter, which means it […]

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 […]
