So at the end of 10 years, you're just out $6500 ?
For the convenience of not having to reset your digital clocks after a power outage that you *might* have?

You can buy a 200amp / 22kw standby generator for about $4500.

How long does a 10 or 15 kwh battery power a typical home?
My power bill shows I used 42kwh per day last month.
So the Tesla battery would last me.... 8 hours?
