These are gonna be hella expensive for a while. If space is not a concern there’s much cheaper batteries out there. You don’t really need fast charging capabilities either.
In a home, power density doesn’t really matter. If a battery is large and heavy, you still only transport it twice. Once new, once when you replace it.
Not very. There’s a different sodium based battery being designed for home storage. Not nearly as energy dense, but will last a very long time, can be left outside the house, and uses cheap components (no lithium or other rare metals).
How viable would something like this be for powering a home? Solar panels+this?

Sodium will probably be better when it becomes more available.
Exactly. I have a lot of space in my garage, not as much in my car.

That’s the battery you’ll want.
