Here's Why We Love HomeGrid Batteries In 2022
HomeGrid manufacturers modular energy storage packages for homes and businesses, making it easy to cater power storage to an individual customer. Their batteries are made from Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) chemistry, making them easier to recycle, have longer lifespans, and have drastically better performance over time. Not only are LFP batteries good for the environment and your wallet, but they are also safer than other battery compositions due to improved thermal control.
StarAlt Solar proudly installs HomeGrid batteries in Texas and Indiana, for both grid-tied and off-grid solar power applications. If you have additional questions, feel free to Contact Us.

Check out the HomeGrid LFP Battery:
This home battery is modular with 4.8 kWh increments, providing a capacity range of 9.6-38.4 kWh per Stack. This also allows for easy servicing and future expansion. With continuous output at up to 15 kW, and a surge of up to 24 kW for 10 seconds, true full-home backup is here with a 30-60 minute installation.
Why Add Battery Backup To Your Home Solar Power System?
Savings Typically, only 1/3 of your electrical usage is during high solar production hours. A home battery lets you store your electricity from the sun or other renewables for later use, allowing you to offset much more of your electricity usage.
Safety Most solar panels will not work in a power outage. Fire codes dictate that there can’t be electricity going back to the grid in an emergency. When you install a battery, you enable your solar to keep working when the power goes out.
Whole-Home Backup Other battery manufacturers claim they can back up your entire home, but including central A/C and other large appliances is often a no-go. With up to 16.8 kW surge and 14.4 kW continuous power in the Homegrid Stack’d Series, we can back up anything you’re using in your home. We also offer the Compact Series for smaller applications, like cabins, tiny homes, and apartments.
How Much Battery Storage Do You Need?
Battery capacity is typically measured in kWh, just like your electricity usage on your bill. Most people use about 33% of their electricity during the day while solar is producing. This means that around 67% of your electricity usage isn’t actually being covered by your solar! To best size your system you need to know what your goals are: going off-grid, saving money, or cost-effective backup.
As an example: If you use 30 kWh a day and your solar covers 10 kWh, you have 20 kWh left that need to be covered. The three battery sizing options would be: 20 kWh (off-grid), 10 kWh (money savings), or 5 kWh (cost effective backup).
10 Year Battery Warranty
With HomeGrid, the 10-year warranty covers full cost of product over the entire 10 years and 1 cycle a day. Their batteries have been tested to 9000 cycles and are serviceable for 25 years!
