Re: Your favorite house battery?

Some discuss 2V Batteries. Why? As for my understanding 2V is one cell on 12V Batteries. So do 2V Batteries have only one cell? And why is it better to have 6x2V instead of on 12V Accu?

Re: Your favorite house battery?

conclusion:
we need a charging computer between the solar (mine is 6 to 16Amps) and AC chargers to monitor and regulate charging between say 95% and 50% to keep cycles low. Did not find a solution...

Re: Your favorite house battery?

just for all and out of common experience: if one old battery is done and you replace it be prepaired to replace all others within a short period as they will give up soon.

Re: Your favorite house battery?

Don't think it it worth the money but you should use cyrix-ct, your solar panel to keep the banks charged. With 50A max solar charging the system is perfect. Just keep one light on board always lit...
