How big a solar battery do I need to store all my home's electricity?

I have a modest set of solar panels on an entirely ordinary house in suburban London. On average they generate about 3,800kWh per year. We also use about 3,800kWh of electricity each year. Obviously, we can't use all the power produced over summer and we need to buy power in winter. So here's my question: How big a battery would we need in order to be completely self-sufficient?

Purikura: The Japanese Grandmother of the Selfie

news.ycombinator.com Ben Leighton 2025-10-05 04:46:10

Unfortunately, as smart phone technology progressed and Japan’s demographic shifted to an elderly population, Purikura’s popularity waned. Between 2007 and 2017, annual sales fell about 30.7 billion yen. While they may have seen their golden age come and go, the booths remain popular all over Japan - and with one survey suggesting that over 90% of Japanese people have tried Purikura at least once, they don’t look like they’re going away any time soon.

There was a time in 2012 when NBA fans from all over were stricken with Linsanity. Jeremy Lin was a benchwarmer for the New York Knicks for much of that season, until he helped the team lock down a seven-game winning streak when he replaced a sidelined Carmelo Anthony in February of that year. Lin's popularity exploded, and though he was traded in the following offseason, his dazzling performance cemented a lasting legacy.

Ask HN: How can I recover and run my old mobile game from the 2010s?

I developed a game called "Putter King Adventure Golf" for iOS and Android back in the 2010s. It's long since disappeared from the app stores, but my son recently asked if he could play it, which got me thinking about whether it might be recoverable. I'm wondering if there's any way to find a copy of it somewhere on the web (I assume it was probably pirated at some point during its lifetime). And if I could find it, what would be the best approach to get it running again? Has anyone here succe

Nissan announces 2026 Leaf pricing, starting at $29,990

There's a new Nissan Leaf coming later this year. The third of its kind to bear the name, it sounds like an appealing upgrade. Smaller than the current model on the outside but with more room inside, it's also more efficient and finally uses a liquid-cooled battery. But we knew all that back at the start of summer. What we didn't know then was how much the Leaf will cost. As we noted back in June, pricing is most likely to determine the Leaf's success or failure. None of the improvements to thi

‘Gags the Clown’ Leans Into an Urban Legend That Maybe Wasn’t a Legend

It’s been nearly a decade since an outbreak of clown sightings frightened people, first in the U.S. and then later across the globe. A clown in the right context isn’t necessarily scary, but a random clown just appearing with no obvious purpose is horror movie material. And, in fact, some of the creepy clown epidemic of 2016 can be traced back to Gags the Clown, a found-footage indie that turned some clever grassroots marketing into a stunt that went viral.

Why MIT switched from Scheme to Python (2009)

Costanza asked Sussman why MIT had switched away from Scheme for their introductory programming course, 6.001. This was a gem. He said that the reason that happened was because engineering in 1980 was not what it was in the mid-90s or in 2000. In 1980, good programmers spent a lot of time thinking, and then produced spare code that they thought should work. Code ran close to the metal, even Scheme — it was understandable all the way down.
