Home Storage & Power Stations Lineup
Every home battery storage system and portable power station in the lineups below, brand by brand — usable capacity, continuous output, chemistry and expandability, in the manufacturers' own published figures.
This lineup covers the two kinds of battery you can buy for household power. Home battery storage systems are installed, wired-in systems — usually paired with rooftop solar — that keep a house running through an outage and store daytime solar for the evening. Portable power stations are self-contained battery boxes with outlets: no installation and no wiring, sized for apartments, camping, job sites and shorter outages at home.
Home systems are measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh); portable stations in watt-hours (Wh) — 1 kWh is 1,000 Wh. To size either one, list what has to keep running, multiply each load's watts by the hours it will run, and add the results: that total is the energy you need. The second number matters just as much — continuous output (kW or W) is the most a system can deliver at one moment. A battery can hold enough energy for a load and still be unable to run it if the load's watts exceed the output.
Specs as published by the manufacturers, October 2026, from product pages, datasheets and manuals as noted. Where a maker does not publish a figure, the table says "Not published by the maker" rather than guessing; where a figure could not be verified from a manufacturer source it is marked "Unverified". No prices are listed, and for portable stations only continuous AC output is shown — surge, peak and boost figures are not listed.
Home battery storage
Installed systems, from a 4.85 kWh module to a 36 kWh two-cabinet setup. Output is the maker's continuous (rated) discharge figure for a single unit unless a configuration range is stated.
Tesla
Two models covered — both 13.5 kWh. Tesla does not publish cell chemistry for either.
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Powerwall 3 | 13.5 kWh | 11.5 kW continuous (on-grid and backup) | Not published by the maker | Up to 4 units; Expansion units add up to 40.5 kWh per unit | 10 years; 70% capacity retention at 10 years; unlimited cycles for solar self-consumption, time-based control and backup use; 37.8 MWh aggregate throughput cap for any other application | Integrated inverter; Tesla positions it for new solar + storage installations, with seamless backup transition and 185 LRA motor start. |
| Powerwall 2 | 13.5 kWh | 5 kW continuous on-grid; 7 kW peak in backup | Not published by the maker | Up to 10 units | 10 years; 70% capacity retention at 10 years; unlimited cycles for solar self-consumption, time-based control and backup use; 37.8 MWh aggregate throughput cap for any other application | Positioned by Tesla for adding storage to existing solar systems; compatible with all major inverter brands. Whether it remains on sale for new installations in every market is unverified. |
Enphase
Two models covered, 5.0 and 10 kWh — both lithium iron phosphate (LFP).
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IQ Battery 5P | 5.0 kWh | 3.84 kW continuous (7.68 kW peak for 3 seconds) | Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) | Unverified — Enphase publishes no maximum; it describes the 5P as modular, sized by adding "as many as you need" | 15 years or 6,000 discharged cycles, whichever comes first; at least 70% of nameplate at end of year 10 and at least 60% at end of year 15; no MWh throughput figure published (cycle-based limit) | AC-coupled; backup capability when installed with an IQ System Controller 3/3G. |
| IQ Battery 10C | 10 kWh | 7.08 kW continuous | Lithium iron phosphate (LFP), cobalt-free | Up to 8 units — up to 80 kWh | 15 years or 6,000 discharged cycles, whichever comes first; at least 70% of nameplate at end of year 10 and at least 60% at end of the warranty period; no MWh throughput figure published (cycle-based limit) | AC-coupled, with built-in 240 V and 120 V microinverters; positioned for heavy loads such as HVAC units and pool pumps. The expandability figure comes from Enphase's support and FAQ pages. |
Generac PWRcell
One system covered, configured from 9 to 36 kWh in 3 kWh modules.
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PWRcell 2 | 9, 12, 15 or 18 kWh per cabinet (3 kWh modules, M3–M6); 36 kWh with two cabinets | 5.2, 7, 8.7 or 10.5 kW by configuration; 11.5 kW max with two cabinets | Not published by the maker | 9–18 kWh in a single cabinet in 3 kWh steps; a second cabinet on the same inverter reaches 36 kWh | Battery modules: 10 years or 7.56 MWh energy throughput per module, whichever comes first; at least 70% of nameplate capacity retention at end of the warranty period (inverter, cabinet and Smart Disconnect Switch: 10 years) | Positioned for whole-home backup, with 200 A maximum backup service; can also pair with a Generac standby generator for extended outages. |
Generac has also announced a PWRcell 2 MAX variant. No manufacturer specification sheet for the MAX could be verified for this lineup, so no MAX figures are listed.
SolarEdge
Two batteries covered — a 9.7 kWh 400 V unit and a modular 48 V unit.
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SolarEdge Home Battery 400V (BAT-10K1P) | 9.7 kWh (100% depth of discharge) | 5 kW (7.5 kW peak for 10 seconds) | Not published by the maker | Up to 3 per inverter — up to 29.1 kWh per inverter | 10 years; 70% capacity retention at end of the warranty period; unlimited cycles for standard solar use; third-party-managed use capped at 26 MWh throughput | DC-coupled, for SolarEdge Home Hub inverters. Third-party sources conflict on this battery's chemistry (both NMC and LFP are claimed), so no chemistry is asserted. |
| SolarEdge Home Battery 48V (BAT-05K48) | 4.85 kWh per module (100% depth of discharge) | 4,096 W discharge per module; 5,000 W with multiple modules | Li-ion — LFP (per datasheet) | Up to 5 modules in parallel per inverter — up to 24.25 kWh | 10 years; 70% remaining usable capacity at the earlier of the end of the warranty period or reaching a throughput of 2.87 MWh per kWh of usable capacity | Modular low-voltage battery. Figures are from the three-phase (Australia) edition datasheet; regional availability outside that edition is unverified. |
FranklinWH
Three models covered, each 15 kWh per unit where verified.
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| aPower 2 | 15 kWh (AC) | 10 kW continuous (15 kW peak for 10 seconds) | Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) | Up to 15 units per aGate — up to 225 kWh | 15 years or 60 MWh aggregate throughput, whichever comes first; 70% of rated capacity (15 kWh) retention | FranklinWH positions a single unit as whole-home backup in most cases (185 LRA for large HVAC), managed through the aGate. |
| aPower S | 15 kWh | Up to 11.5 kW continuous — configurable at 5, 7.6, 9.6 or 11.5 kW (15 kW peak for 10 seconds) | Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) | Up to 15 units per aGate — up to 225 kWh | 15 years or 60 MWh warrantied throughput; capacity retention NOT PUBLISHED — FranklinWH does not state a retention figure for the aPower S (it is not listed in the Aug 2025 Limited Warranty document), so no retention figure is shown here | Hybrid variant with a built-in solar inverter (4 MPPTs, up to 20 kW solar input), in the same aGate-managed system. |
| aPower X | Unverified | Unverified | Unverified | Unverified | 12 years or 43 MWh aggregate throughput, whichever comes first; 70% of rated capacity (13.6 kWh) retention | The original aPower. FranklinWH's current site publishes no specifications for the X, and retailer figures (13.6 kWh, 5 kW continuous) could not be verified from a manufacturer source, so they are not listed. |
LG
Three models covered across two separate LG lines — they are not the same product.
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LG Energy Solution RESU 10H Prime | 9.6 kWh | 5 kW (LG lists this as maximum power, not "continuous"; 7 kW peak for 10 seconds) | Not published by the maker | Unverified from an LG-hosted page | 10 years or 32 MWh aggregate energy throughput, whichever comes first; 70% energy retention (North America warranty version) | A battery component that pairs with a compatible third-party inverter — not an all-in-one system. |
| LG Energy Solution RESU 16H Prime | 16.0 kWh | 7 kW max charge/discharge (11 kW peak for 10 seconds) | Not published by the maker | Max. 2 in parallel — 32.0 kWh total (per LG's datasheet, distributor-hosted copy) | 10 years or 54 MWh aggregate energy throughput, whichever comes first; 70% energy retention (North America warranty version) | The larger Prime battery; same inverter-pairing model as the 10H Prime. |
| LG Home 8 (ESS Home 8) | 14.4 kWh usable (15.8 kWh total) | 7.5 kVA rated AC (9.0 kVA max for 10 seconds) | Not published as a named chemistry — LG states only "Cylindrical Li-ion" | Up to 4 units — 14.4, 28.8, 43.2 or 57.6 kWh | 10 years with 70% battery capacity at 10 years, per LG's spec sheet — conditional: LG's standard limited warranty is 5 years parts/energy capacity, and the 10-year extended limited warranty applies only to qualified products registered with LG ThinQ and connected to the internet; throughput not published | LG Electronics' all-in-one system (battery, Smart Energy Box, ThinQ monitoring). LG's specification page makes no whole-home backup claim for it. |
Two distinct LG lines are current: LG Energy Solution's RESU Prime (battery only, pairs with a compatible inverter) and LG Electronics' Home 8 all-in-one system. They are not the same product.
sonnen
Three current U.S. models covered. sonnen publishes fewer figures than most makers here; the gaps are marked, not filled.
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| sonnenCore+ | 10 or 20 kWh per system — unverified (sonnen's product page states only "up to 60 kWh" total) | Unverified — not published on sonnen's product page | Not published on sonnen's product page | Stackable to 3 systems per home — up to 60 kWh | 10 years (120 months) or 10,000 battery cycles, whichever comes first; 70% of labelled storing capacity retention; no guaranteed MWh throughput published | All-in-one indoor system positioned for energy management and outage protection, including sonnen's virtual power plant programs. |
| ecoLinx | 12–20 kWh (in 2 kWh steps), or a single 30 kWh size | 7 kW grid-tied / 8 kW off-grid (12–20 kWh models, per sonnen's tech spec sheet); 30 kWh model unverified | Not published on sonnen's product page | Capacity is configured within the unit; no multi-unit maximum is published | 15 years (180 months) or 15,000 battery module cycles, whichever comes first; 65% of labelled storing capacity retention; no guaranteed MWh throughput published | sonnen's premium, home-automation-integrated system, with "smart configurable backup power" during outages. |
| sonnenEvo | 10 kWh usable (two 5.0 kWh modules) | Unverified for the U.S. version | Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) — per sonnen Group's launch announcement | Unverified | 10 years (120 months) or 10,000 battery cycles, whichever comes first; 70% of labelled storing capacity retention; no guaranteed MWh throughput published | All-in-one AC-coupled system designed for outdoor installation. Capacity and chemistry are from sonnen Group's launch announcement (which covered the AU/NZ launch); sonnen's U.S. pages publish no output figure. |
The original sonnenCore and the older sonnen eco (Gen 3.1) are not listed as current-model entries — their current U.S. availability is unverified. sonnen's original sonnenCore tech sheet lists 10 kWh usable, 4.8 kW grid-tied output and LFP chemistry.
BYD Battery-Box
Two modular towers covered. Battery-Box is a battery only — no built-in inverter — so BYD publishes output in amps, not kilowatts.
| Model | Usable capacity | Continuous output | Chemistry | Expandable to | Warranty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Battery-Box Premium HVS | 5.1–12.8 kWh per tower (2–5 modules of 2.56 kWh) | Not published in kW — 25 A max output current (50 A peak, 5 s); AC power depends on the paired inverter | Lithium iron phosphate (LFP), cobalt-free | Up to 3 identical towers in parallel — up to 38.4 kWh | Warranty varies by region — BYD publishes warranty letters per region, not one universal warranty, and no North America letter is among our sources. For reference only, BYD's Australia letter gives: 10 years; 60% of Usable Energy retention for 10 years or until Minimum Throughput Energy is reached, whichever comes first (HVS 5.1: 15.41 MWh; HVS 7.7: 23.12 MWh; HVS 10.2: 30.82 MWh; HVS 12.8: 38.53 MWh). BYD's South East Asia letter for the same models states different terms — check your region's letter. | Positioned for high-power backup and off-grid use with leading single- and three-phase inverters. |
| Battery-Box Premium HVM | 8.3–22.1 kWh per tower (3–8 modules of 2.76 kWh) | Not published in kW — 50 A max output current (75 A peak, 5 s); AC power depends on the paired inverter | Lithium iron phosphate (LFP), cobalt-free | Up to 3 identical towers in parallel — up to 66.2 kWh | Warranty varies by region — BYD publishes warranty letters per region, not one universal warranty, and no North America letter is among our sources. For reference only, BYD's Australia letter gives: 10 years; 60% of Usable Energy retention for 10 years or until Minimum Throughput Energy is reached, whichever comes first (HVM 8.3: 25.62 MWh; HVM 11.0: 34.15 MWh; HVM 13.8: 42.69 MWh; HVM 16.6: 51.23 MWh; HVM 19.3: 59.77 MWh; HVM 22.1: 68.31 MWh). BYD's South East Asia letter for the same models states different terms — check your region's letter. | The larger per-tower range, aimed at bigger systems. |
Portable power stations
Self-contained stations from 245 Wh to just over 4 kWh. Output is continuous AC output only — surge and boost figures are not listed.

Capacity and output for both models are verified on Generac's own support site. Chemistry and solar input are from the spec table in Generac's GB1000/GB2000 owner's manual — a Generac document, but manual-sourced rather than product-page-sourced.
VTOMAN
One current model with a full manufacturer spec table.
| Model | Capacity | AC output (continuous) | Chemistry | Max solar input | Weight | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FlashSpeed 1500 | 1,548 Wh | 1,500 W | LiFePO4 | 400 W via the Anderson input (30–60 V) | 41.4 lbs / 18.8 kg (net weight, main specifications table — VTOMAN's own page also shows 41.5 lbs in a second block; the main spec table figure is used) | VTOMAN also lists a separate DC input at 200 W max; it does not publish a single combined solar figure. |
pecron
One current model with a full manufacturer spec table.
| Model | Capacity | AC output (continuous) | Chemistry | Max solar input | Weight | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E1500LFP | 1,536 Wh | 2,200 W | LiFePO4 | 1,000 W (XT60, 11–60 V) | 38.4 lbs / 17.4 kg (current V3 product page spec table — pecron's manuals in circulation give inconsistent figures around 40 lb, so the current product-page figure is the citable one) | Version discrepancy on pecron's own site: an older listing for this model gave 800 W total across two ports. The figure shown follows the current listing. |
Some stationary storage is a second life for an EV battery: packs retired from vehicles can be repurposed as home storage. When a large battery does reach the end of its life, it goes back through the manufacturer or dealer rather than a municipal drop-off — no city program in our directory accepts EV traction packs. See Batteries & the Environment for how battery recycling works where you live.
