    they say they’re putting them out from 48V to 800V, 48V is what most inverter systems use, so I imagine they’re targetting that size for “consumers” at the single-house PV system size.

    48 volts is also what telecom uses in their infrastructure. That’s a much bigger market (and one with deeper pockets) than consumer installs.

      Then why bother putting the article here? Who out of us is going to actually care. I’m looking to expand the storage on my off-grid property and I would absolutely love something other than lithium especially if it can get cheaper per kilowatt hour. I got five acres to work with so I really don’t care about the density just needs a decent cycle life and price

        Thats great that you are looking for alternatives, but you aren’t the only reader here.

        Other people have other interests and are looking for different things than you are.

        It’s a great development that we should keep our eyes on, as some years into the future it will most certainly be available for regular consumers, including you with your install.

        Then why bother putting the article here?

        Because it’s interesting regardless of whether I can buy it or not?

        I watch reviews on computer hardware that I definitely can’t afford, because it’s interesting.
