Battery Back up

The two basic components of battery-based storage systems are an inverter/charger and a set of DC batteries. The inverter/charger converts AC power from the grid to DC to charge the batteries. When power from the grid is lost, the inverter converts the DC battery power to AC for use in the home.

If you live in an area where power outage is frequent you might want to take advantage of the convenience of adding solar panels to your system, according with your power consumption and budget.
