| Key features | - Compares battery models from 23 brands on payback time and net result after 15 years
- Calculates with real hourly EPEX prices for dynamic energy contracts
- Processes the end of net metering from 1 January 2027
- Provides negative buying advice if purchase is not worthwhile
- No account or email required
- Generates 10-page PDF advice report with lowest prices from 11 shops
- Free 22-page PDF handbook about home batteries
- Analyzes consumption and solar generation hour by hour for full year
- Three scenarios: pessimistic, most likely and optimistic outcomes
- Updates prices from 11 online shops every morning automatically
| - Resistor Color Code: read 4, 5 and 6-band resistors or find bands for a value
- LED Resistor: pick the current-limiting resistor and power rating
- Voltage Divider: output voltage, loading effect, or solve R2 for target Vout
- RC Filter: cutoff frequency, time constant and attenuation at any frequency
- LC Resonance: resonant frequency, characteristic impedance and Q
- 555 Timer: astable frequency/duty cycle and monostable pulse width
- Battery Life: runtime from capacity, active/sleep current and duty cycle
- PCB Trace Width: IPC-2221 trace width for current and temperature rise
- Electronics Unit Converter: SI prefixes, AWG to mm², mil to mm, dBm to mW, oz copper

| What makes it different | - Truly independent: sells no batteries, has no arrangements with installers, publishes negative buying advice
- No personal data collection: zero signup required, immediate results without email
- Built from personal need: creator did his own calculations after a misleading sales pitch
- Comprehensive research: 384 example households analyzed in 26,112 calculations
- Shows all calculation assumptions: transparent methodology with public data sources
| - Real E-series resistor values, not ideal numbers
- Engineering notation input and result sharing as links
- No ads, no tracking, no sign-up for free calculators
- Whole-device BOM costing and battery-life summary in Pro
- Works on phone at the bench
