As a data point, my 28.8 home battery pack cost $9,000 for the batteries, and a couple more grand for the charge controllers, inverter, etc. That was 5 years ago. I reckon that’s about three days worth without space heating and water heating, both of which the wood stove is good enough for in such an unlikely pinch as going that long without utility power or significant recharge from the PV array.
If my 40kWh Aptera adds to that via V2H capability, that will be a pretty huge add. Hard to imagine needing even that much, never mind 100kWh or more for the home, though I realize some folks think that they need to use a whole lot more power than I do.
