Tesla isn’t the only company making electric cars, so it stands to reason that it’s not the only car company repurposing its batteries for home use.

Each module offers a 2.5 kWh capacity, and you can link up to eight of them together, creating an at-home power plant with with a capacity of 20 kWh, more than enough to store up your solar power for those times when the sun’s not shining, or just store power from the grid for reuse when it’s more expensive.
