I agree on checking into Sonnen, as they are using regular Outback Radians and the high<>low voltage conversion electronics are built into the unit. The main complaints I have heard so far is that it's a really crowded compartment in which you have to do your wiring.
You might also look into the Iron Edison Lithium-Iron packs; lots of success stories, and they can scale up far bigger than Tesla....took a couple of my classes on field trips there last week. 225kWh battery backup for a mansion in California, big cell repeater towers in Canada, big houseboat on Lake Powell.....the technology is safer than the Li-ion in Tesla/Sonnen, it vents steam instead of flames and toxic chemicals if everything goes south. Accessible and easy to wire, including the BMS computers. China is banking on Li-Fe instead of Li-ion with their massive push to solar, wind and utility-scale storage.
