On: Show HN: We built a Plug-in Home Battery for the 99.7% of us without Powerwalls

This is great for devices plugged in to the same circuit. Can it provide power to separate circuits? Such as fixed lights, which are typically on a separate circuit from power outlets.

Great question! Unfortunately no, it'll only power devices that're plugged into it. It's basically like a very large, connected UPS.

It's unfortunately illegal to push energy back into the circuit without a permit in all states except Utah in the US :D
