Power Storage Battery for Home

It depends on how much power you need and what you're running. True Gear stocks Bluetti home battery systems ranging from 864Wh entry units up to 3,840Wh heavy-duty models. For most households wanting backup power for essentials - fridge, lights, phone charging - something in the 1,440Wh to 2,300Wh range does the job well. If you're running power tools or a larger setup off-grid, look at the Bluetti Apex 300 or Elite 400.

True Gear's home battery storage range runs from around $779 for a solid entry-level unit up to $3,000+ for high-capacity systems. Most blokes find the sweet spot between $1,000 and $2,500 - enough capacity to cover a blackout or run a campsite comfortably. All products are priced in AUD with Australian GST included.

A good rule of thumb: add up the wattage of what you need to keep running (fridge is around 150W, LED lights 10-20W each, phone charger 20W) and multiply by the hours you want coverage. A 1,440Wh battery will run a fridge for roughly 8-10 hours. For whole-home backup, you're looking at 2,000Wh+ or stacking multiple units. Bluetti units support expansion batteries, so you can scale up over time.

True Gear currently stocks Bluetti home battery systems, which use LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) chemistry - the same tech used in quality EV batteries. LiFePO4 is safer, lasts longer (3,000+ charge cycles), and handles Australian heat better than older lithium-ion chemistries. Other brands may be added to the range over time.

Yes. Bluetti units sold through True Gear come with an Australian warranty - typically 2-5 years depending on the model. Because True Gear is an authorised Australian dealer, warranty claims are handled locally. You're not stuck chasing an overseas manufacturer if something goes wrong.
