Figuring those prices, you're not going to end up too far off from the price of the Tesla for the same run time. Tripling the batteries will put you up to somewhere around $4500, for basically the same kWh, but if you factor in being able to 100% discharge the Tesla setup, you're going to need to add a bunch more battery.
I wonder how the life expectancy compares...
