Tesla is going to be leasing battery packs not selling them. They are leasing them with their solar electric leases. Like the Tesla cars, much of the revenue from the product is most likely going to come from other sources. CA has some very generous incentives for grid electric storage and on top of that there is most likely 5 minute capacity payments that they can grab. The battery may be in someone's basement but Tesla can be pulling all sorts of strings generating revenue in addition to what the homeowner is paying, Unfortunately this means unless you want the strings attached its going to be awhile before you will be able to get a hold of cheap Lithium powerpacks
