About $4,000 seems cheap to me :)
and
"The Powerwall is about three feet wide and four feet tall and seven inches thick, comparable to a wall-mounted high-end television set turned 90 degrees."

This is suppose to do 24 hrs a day electric (obviously you have to have the Solar {or wind} to charge it enough)


I am excited to see that things like this are really ramping up !
There is a new development down the street and I would say about 40% have solar panels on the roof. I know that there are 5 that rent them only because they had signs up for the 1st year they were on.

I don't like renting them, I think buying is more cost effective. But like a Lease to a sale of the i, it all depends on your circumstances.


edit to add a laugh.... as a child we had a house in VT near Stratton. Winter and summer every weekend. No TV, just board games and outings.
We had a Book called (i think) "Real people from Vermont don't..." One of them was "... Have solar panels"
That was 25-30 years ago.... SO Changed !
