But which is best?<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>You could pore over the specs; looking at efficiency, backup, peak power etc. Or you could simply ask the people who install and support home batteries every day what they would trust in their own home.<\/p>\n<p>The word &#8216;trust&#8217; carries a lot of importance in the previous sentence. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/battery-storage\/comparison-table\/\">home battery<\/a> is a very dense box of energy, and lithium batteries are susceptible to thermal runaway if things go horribly wrong. That&#8217;s a fancy way of saying the worst-case scenario from a dud battery or installation is an explosion and ferocious fire.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t want to scare anyone from buying a home solar battery &#8211; I have one on my family home. But I want to impress upon you the importance of buying a good, well-engineered, monitored and supported brand.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, it needs to be well-installed.<\/p>\n<p>For the second year now, we asked installers in the SolarQuotes network which battery they would install on their own homes in 2022 if:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Money was no object<\/li>\n<li>Money was tight, and every dollar counted<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The idea is that I would tease out the best high-end and the best budget solar batteries for Australian homes as voted by the people with more skin in the game than most.<\/p>\n<p>The latest evaluation and ranking for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/best-home-batteries-2023\/\">best home solar batteries in 2023<\/a><\/strong> have been compiled in a comprehensive article, an essential read for those wanting to stay updated on the top-performing solar storage batteries.<\/p>\n<h2>Best High-End Solar Batteries in Australia (Money No Object):<\/h2>\n<p>We asked the installers:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What battery would you put in your own home if money was no object?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here\u2019s what they told us their favourite \u2018high-end\u2019 home batteries are:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-60011 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/best-batteries-podium.png\" alt=\"best batteries 2022 - Australia\" width=\"639\" height=\"593\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/best-batteries-podium.png 639w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/best-batteries-podium-300x278.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Best Battery &#8211; First Place: Tesla (54% of votes)<\/h3>\n<p>Tesla keeps its first place from 2021 with their Powerwall home battery getting more votes than all other brands combined.

Only Tesla.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That reflects the Powerwall&#8217;s best quality: &#8211; it just works and keeps working thanks to over-the-air updates and comprehensive monitoring. This allows remote troubleshooting by Tesla engineers if there is an issue.<\/p>\n<p>The Powerwall also comes with &#8211; in my opinion &#8211; the best solar battery monitoring app.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-60041\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/tesla-app.gif\" alt=\"Tesla Powerwall app\" width=\"419\" height=\"443\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Finally, the Powerwall easily optimises its operation with time-of-use tariffs so you can confidently ride through expensive evening peak periods on solar battery power.<\/p>\n<p>The one downside: Powerwall is expensive. Expect to pay $16,000+ installed on your home before any subsidies are applied.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/battery-storage\/reviews\/tesla-powerwall-2-review.html\">Tesla Powerwall reviews<\/a> from 350 Australians score an impressive 4.9 star average.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We purchase Tesla battery system after having solar for some time because when the power went out our solar went down and we were without power, Tesla Battery does a great job it has backed up our large house and sheds on Rural Property for up to 4 days at a time during hot summer. we couldn&#8217;t be happier with it, Tesla battery was our best investment and has added property value.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_60046\" style=\"width: 444px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-60046\" class=\"wp-image-60046 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/tesla-testar.jpg\" alt=\"Tesla Powerwall installation example\" width=\"434\" height=\"637\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/tesla-testar.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/tesla-testar-204x300.jpg 204w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 434px) 100vw, 434px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-60046\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tesla Powerwall and Gateway installed by Testar<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Best Battery &#8211; Second Place: BYD (13% of votes)<\/h3>\n<p>BYD is a Warren Buffet backed, $100 billion Chinese battery maker.

I certainly know a few installers who would rather lose the sale than install anything else.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s because the Powerwall installs easily and is generally trouble-free. And because Tesla has made the app so easy to use, there&#8217;s very little customer support required after the installation.<\/p>\n<p>For example &#8211; when the cellular connection in early Powerwalls stopped working, the app made the switch over to WiFi a piece of cake for the customer. Many other brands would have required a service visit.<\/p>\n<p>Well done Tesla &#8211; the Powerwall is a phenomenal piece of technology &#8211; it just needs to start dropping in price instead of increasing.
