The value of a used 24 KWh battery used in, say, an old EV non-tesla car - $2000 (note this still has plenty of life left). Example: a 2013 Nissan Leaf

The value of the same, repurposed to a "powerwall" - $10k per 10 KWh

The value of it once attached to a "movable powerwall" - :) add a few more zeros

Clearly, I am in the wrong business...

You can get good batteries for a lot cheaper than a power wall. Just like when the Tesla family of companies tried to do home solar - big premium for the name.

This puzzles me.

When we got solar we asked for quotes, but ‘No Tesla’. The sales rep said ‘We get that a lot’.

I knew a guy with a Tesla solar system and his advice was also “no Tesla”
