Wrenches,

Does anyone have any experience or information / recommendations for a
small flywheel that could be used to provide 3-5 days of power in a
residential off grid situation? I have done just a little bit of
research and it appears that flywheels are used more prevalently in
situations involving large power demands in a short period of time.

I am looking for an alternate to conventional battery storage for off
grid PV.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
