A generator needs fuel, noise and someone awake to start it. Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - Lithium costs more upfront but lasts far longer. - Gel and AGM suit smaller budgets and backup use. - Size the battery to your night load, not your panels. Quick answer A solar battery is the biggest running cost of a solar system. Lithium (LiFePO4) costs more upfront but lasts 3 to 5 times longer and gives more usable power than gel or lead-acid, so it is usually cheaper per year. Match battery size to the evening and night load you want to run, not to the panels.
