Why choose Duracell
Why choose a Duracell solar battery?
Duracell is one of the most recognisable names in energy storage, and their home battery range brings that same engineering pedigree to your home. Choosing Duracell over other brands means:
Lower energy bills — store excess solar generation during the day, or charge from cheap overnight tariffs and use that energy at peak times.
Backup during power cuts — keep essential circuits running with Duracell's optional backup functionality.
Modular capacity — start small and add modules as your needs grow.
Long product warranty — Duracell back their home batteries with a market-leading 12-year warranty.
A trusted, well-known brand — peace of mind from a name with serious UK presence and support.

The full line-up
Our Duracell solar battery range
We install every model in Duracell's residential solar battery line-up. The right choice depends on your daily electricity use, the size of your solar PV system and how much backup capacity you want.
Entry-level
Duracell Dura5
≈ 5.12 kWh usable
The Dura5 is Duracell's entry-level home battery, with a usable capacity of around 5.12 kWh. It's well suited to typical 3-bed UK homes with a small-to-mid-sized solar array and average electricity consumption.
High capacity
Duracell Dura16
Stackable · whole-home backup
The Dura16 is a higher-capacity stackable system, designed for larger households or homes with bigger solar PV setups. Its modular design lets it scale to meet greater daily demand and offers stronger whole-home backup potential than the Dura5.
Modular
Duracell Energy Bank
Mix & match capacity
The Duracell Energy Bank is Duracell's wider modular range, letting you mix and match capacity to suit your home. Whether you're starting smaller with plans to expand, or going for whole-home backup from day one, we'll spec the right configuration during your free site survey.
Pricing

Honest advice
Duracell vs other solar batteries
Duracell vs Tesla Powerwall
The most common comparison is Duracell vs Tesla Powerwall. Tesla offers a larger 13.5 kWh single unit and a well-established app, but at a noticeably higher price. Duracell's modular approach means a lower entry cost and more flexibility to grow capacity over time.
Duracell vs GivEnergy & Fox ESS
Against brands like GivEnergy and Fox ESS, Duracell trades on brand recognition and warranty length, while the alternatives often win on price-per-kWh.
As independent installers, we'll happily walk you through honest pros and cons — we don't push one brand for the sake of it.

Bolton · Dura 10 system
"Got quotes from three installers and Nightingale were honest about what we actually needed — didn't try to upsell us a battery twice the size. Bills are down by about 70% so far."
MP
Mark P.
Chorley · Dura 5+ system
"Installed in a day, immaculate finish, and they sorted the DNO paperwork for us. Six months in and the system has paid for nearly a year of electricity already. Couldn't be happier."
