Weather the Storm

Good question!

Yes, there have been some instances (very few and mostly in the beginning) where the batteries caught fire. But I think the technology has evolved and there are literally millions of these type battery storage generators sold every year. I think they are pretty safe.

And yes again, that is the purpose of the battery, to store the energy/electricity for when you need it. I charge my battery generators and they hold the charge for a long time. If I don't use mine for 6 months or so, I make sure to use it to drain down to about 10% and then recharge. They say you shouldn't let it sit for longer than 6 months without being used.

The newer products have lifecycle's in the thousands which means you can use it a thousand times before the battery starts to lose it's full capacity. So even if you use it everyday, you'll probably get a good 8-10 years from it. And when it does start to lose it's capacity, it goes down to 80% or so, so you don't lose all of it!

Hope that answers some of your questions, let me know if you any more!
