With lots of data, and several years using a home storage battery I've condensed my thinking into 20 minutes giving a couple of formulae to help size a home battery.

Relevant to UK seasons, adjust accordingly

Of equal importance I discuss why you might want a home starage battery and how your priorities will affect the size you need, or think you need.

Hope this helps

Correction: originally I used September - October not October - November export for sizing but changed my mind and said Oct to Nov in the video.
Sept-Oct gives good result for me so not sure why I changed it🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️
