Hi again Folks Where to buy your Battery's for your Solar Panels or just one or two that you can hook up a Light or two.
Trojan makes a good Golf Cart rechargeable Battery that are not to expensive But if you happen to know someone who works for Bell or Rogers
or one of the other meager phone Company's you can get a really good deal. You see if they do not use these rechargeable battery in a Yr. they Dump them
These battery's cost around 450$ each I bought mine by Calling the Company and asking if they had any Battery's that they would sell I got 18 brand new
battery's for 80$ each
Something to think about before spending your hard earned cash.

Also for durability you want Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) batteries, or Gel Cell. Long discharge time, and they like being deep cycled.

have you tried 2 volt battery systems? they will give you more current and will last longer, as well as taking a charge easier and quicker than 6 or 12 volt battery bank systems. try surrette battery systems on the net. Good luck btw they are easy on your inverters and wont heat them up as much.


When in doubt think it out...(you thought I was gonna say something else?)
