How much of your car battery capacity would you be willing to sacrifice to
load level the grid?
Probably up to half on a regular basis. Usually, I don't care if my
gas tank is half full or compltely full. Particularly if I got the
energy for half price.
If you are prepared to sacrifice a significant amount what is the point
lugging a heavy half empty battery around the country with you? Why not
have a smaller battery to start with?
Because sometimes I need more range, but that's not often, and I
usually know in advance. Most of us have access to more than one
vehicle so it doesn't have be right 100% of the time.
What does a daily (twice daily?) charge/discharge cycle do for the already
short life of lithium batteries?
Battery technology needs to be up to the job.
