A battery’s depth of discharge dictates how much of the battery’s capacity should be used before recharging it. For example, if you have a 10 kWh solar battery with an 80% DoD, you should only use it for 8 kWh of energy before allowing it to recharge. Most modern lithium-ion batteries come with a DoD of 90% or more.
A battery backup system can keep your home running on renewable energy even during a blackout. What are the best batteries for whole-home backup? The Duracell Power Center Max Hybrid battery was our top pick for the best solar battery of 2024, and it’s also our top pick for the best whole-home battery backup—it’s that good.
An electric car could potentially travel for around 10-40 miles on a low battery before running out of power (estimated for a battery of around 10% and under). This will vary massively depending on the type of EV, the size of the battery, the health of the battery and the speed driven.
Scalability – Most solar batteries are available in a range of capacities, so you can choose according to how much electricity you need to store. The best batteries come as modular units that you can stack to increase (“scale”) their capacity as your needs increase over time, for example if you buy an EV.
A battery’s capacity can be misleading, as you shouldn’t typically use a battery’s entire capacity, otherwise you run the risk of damaging it. Only a handful of solar batteries have 100% usable capacity — most range between 90% and 95%.
Only a handful of solar batteries have 100% usable capacity — most range between 90% and 95%. When shopping for a solar battery, you should always look out for the battery’s usable capacity and factor that into how much electricity your home needs.
