I believe so, yes. One of the reasons I have not decided to play batteries.
What system do you have? I've heard different things (ie. You can charge/discharge using the full depth of charge - but it might be because the givenergy batteries have a larger capacity than they tell you to build in that over charge/undercharge protection)Yep but it still doesn't make sense not to have them when you are all electric & cover your house in panels.
(I have 10kwh batteries & 6kw inverter)
The main thing is not to let the charge drop too low, mine is set to 20% minimum. But you should also only charge to 90% to stop overcharging issues, but then you loose 30% capacity.
(My system always charges to full as it had no max charge limit until a recent update & that doesn't seem to work on my kit yet)

I have a solis inverter & 2*5Kwh pylontech batteries.What system do you have? I've heard different things.
Them maybe it's not for you. But that doesn't mean it's not for other people.I could not get the ROI to add up.
Li-ion seena to be quite different from LiFePo4. The latter seem much more tolerant to "100% DoD" cycles.I have a solis inverter & 2*5Kwh pylontech batteries
We are 100% leccy with 23kw of generation.I have a solis inverter & 2*5Kwh pylontech batteries.
@MashBag If you have gas for heating/cooking, you don't get ROI, but were electric only with storage heaters and young adults at home (cooking power is as much as heating power when averaged over the year) when the energy crisis started. Overnight payback time halved to 7-8 years.
