As much as I would like to have a bank of Volt batteries for backup power it just does not make since at this point.
We are lucky like you and have pretty dependable power.

I have a good net metering with carry over each month. Once a year zero out. The grid is the cheapest battery I will ever have until they change the net metering program.
Everybody I talk to thinks I still have power when the grid is down. Grid connected solar is a very simple system. HI no longer allows most customers to put power back onto the grid.

This is a bummer for them but should give us some great and cheaper battery back solutions soon in the near future.
