Episode Details

On today's charged up episode of Quick Charge, we've got FranklinWH co-founder and CEO Gary Lam here to talk us through some of the benefits of a home battery system, and what it takes to make the most of one – with, or even without a home solar panel system.

We published an article last week explaining how home battery systems could be used to reduce energy bills, add lasting value to your home, and more – and it got the attention of FranklinWH's Gary Lam, who helped with some updates and generously offered to take the time to answer some of my questions on today's episode. Enjoy!
