Anyone buying those 40-50kwh batteries for $5k and expecting them to actually get installed and not be absolutely crap fakes, well I’ve got a bridge to sell you. Both those deals are dodgy as fuck mate lol.

Prices haven’t come down for batteries or solar, not the actual price to consumers. A Tesla solar wall costs more today than they did when they first came out. Cost to produce is not the same as price to customers.

You’re kidding if you think battery prices are going to hit dirt cheap when the entire country literally depends on them because our stupid government are corrupt and incompetent.

BRB just plugging in my car to charge it up using solar for free

Love not paying for electricity or gas or petrol
