EQ guidelines [RE-wrenches]

[sunwise at cheqnet.net]

Greetings all,

I have a couple of clients who are asking for more specific info on just
how often one should be equalizing their lead-acid battery.  They have
gotten different stories from different sources.  I have my own
guidelines, but wanted to quote them some hard info from documented
sources.  I found a lot of fuzzy formulas and confusing statements when
I turned to some of my references.  Anyone care to contribute?

Let's include everything from number of cycles (how deep?), to voltage
variations of individual batts in a pack, not cells ofcourse (and does
the pack have to be at rest), and cell variations in specific graviety
just for the mess of it.

Thanks for any input,
Kurt Nelson
