I thought there were LFP chemistries with virtually unlimited recharge cycles. That's what Jeffrey Dahm stated back when Tesla was bragging about the million mile range battery pack.

With Sodium Ion entering mass production, and whatever mishmash of solid state and sulfur techs hit mainstream, I think batteries will be the way to go. There's always flywheels too.

He probably didn't tell you that Tesla LFP EVs would degrade and lose the first 10% of range twice as fast as non-LFPs because LFP EVs must be charged to full 100% frequently.

For home charging, that is ... typical? And for a grid or solar storage system, again, probably a typical situation to top off. Since they are lots of cells, the battery management system can cycle topping off individual cells I would think to keep them fresh, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
