I work in IT, been a software developer for decades.

I have a full on smart home, all the smart tech you can imagine. All connected and running locally via home assistant.

Smart tech isn’t bad, shitty tech is.

I’m the UK, 10kWh from a large brand (sigenergy) costs about £2k, but cheaper brands you can get about 3x the storage for that price.

Not the same guy but I’m having both installed right now. I’ll be buying cheap electric at night to fill my batteries and running the house all day from that, while exporting and selling anything from the solar as well as any excess.

Every unit I sell is worth 12.5p, the cheap rate is costing me only 5.2p. eventually that export rate will go away, I’m which case I’ll be able to be self sufficient about 2/3 of the year.
