48V1000Ah is a relatively popular battery bank capacity and a good choice for many projects and home use. It has a total capacity of 48kWh, and the actual amount of recommended energy released per day depends on the different types of batteries that make up the battery bank.
There are various types of lithium and lead-acid batteries to consider, some of which are listed below for your reference.
VRLA GFM Battery 12V250Ah | 6-GFM-250
As a popular type of lead-acid battery, 4*4=16pcs 12V250Ah can be made up into 48V1000Ah battery bank by 4 in parallel and 4 in series. At present, it is the most economical way of the combination. And it is also simple to install. The recommended depth of discharge is 50% DOD, in order to achieve a good cycle life. For projects with less frequent use, it’s a good choice.

Deep Cycle AGM Battery 12V250Ah | 6-DC-250
Like the GFM battery above, there are also 16 batteries in 4 series and 4 parallel, but the difference is that the deep cycle battery is more focused on the deep discharge ability and cycle life. The recommended depth of discharge is still 50%, but it is possible to set it to 70% if you want.
This combination is appropriate for more frequent charging and discharging, or for higher power requirements, such as 30kWh of daily use.

Gel Battery 12V250Ah | 6-JT-250
The cycle life of gel batteries is better than deep cycle batteries.
Although the combination is still the same, and they are also lead batteries. In high power discharging condition, gel batteries are not as good as the above two AGM batteries. If there are high power appliances, it is not recommended to use gel batteries. For 48V1000Ah battery bank, 15kW will be the upper limit of the gel battery.
