I’d love to buy a 20 kWh battery for under $1k. Can you give me a link to what you’re thinking of?


Sorry my wording was ambiguous; when I said "that size" I meant 2.7 kWh, which is what the hypothetical concrete blocks might provide.

Nevertheless, you can get a 16 kWh battery (which is enough for most days of a typical house) for only £2k, which is kind of insane really: https://www.fogstar.co.uk/products/fogstar-energy-16kwh-48v-...


People have been able to get their Tesla Model 3 batteries (75kWh iirc) replaced with used battery packs for around $5k, so quite close to what you’re asking.


Do they get much for the old used battery? the materials are still lithium etc are still inside it, they're just no longer in the right places..
