FAQ

Common questions about battery backup

What appliances will the backup power?

The Essential Backup plan covers lights, Wi-Fi/router, TV, laptop/phone charging, and essential small appliances like a fridge. It's designed to keep your home functional during outages without running heavy loads.

How long does the battery last during an outage?

Depending on usage and the size of your battery, you can expect 4–8 hours of backup for essential loads. The battery automatically recharges when grid power returns, so you're ready for the next outage.

Can I add solar panels later?

Absolutely. Our battery backup systems are designed to integrate with solar panels. When you're ready, we can upgrade your subscription to include solar generation and take you off-grid ready.

Do I need roof space or structural changes?

No. Battery backup requires minimal space — typically a corner in your garage, laundry room, or utility area. No roof access or structural modifications are needed.
