Myth 5: Are Tesla or BYD Batteries Really the Best Choice?

This article is part of our Energy Myths series, where we uncover the facts behind common misconceptions about solar, batteries, and clean energy.

The Myth
Big-name brands like Tesla or BYD are often assumed to be the best in the battery market simply because they’re well-known. Many people believe their size guarantees performance, flexibility, and support.

The Truth
When it comes to long-term value, bigger doesn’t always mean better. Freedom Won batteries are engineered for flexibility, serviceability, and safety — qualities that sealed “black box” systems often lack.

Here’s how Freedom Won stands apart:

- Open inverter compatibility – no lock-ins to one brand or ecosystem.

- Serviceable, modular construction – replace individual cells instead of entire units.

- Safer chemistry (LiFePO₄) – proven to be more stable than other lithium chemistries.

- Local warehousing and support – reducing lead times and improving customer service.

Why It Matters
Choosing a battery isn’t just about the logo on the box. A system built for longevity, safety, and flexibility gives you peace of mind and better value for decades — not just the first warranty period.
