[RE-wrenches] batteries

[William Miller]

Jeff:

Can your client maintain batteries?

The IBE 85N-13 is 627 AH of FLA.  One string is too small, two strings is 
too large, so you may need to keep looking.  I would add that we have had 
only one failure in 20 plus years of use.

The MK-8A8DLTP  Deka is 245 amp hours of AGM.  Three strings would meet 
your requirements and is within most installers recommended string 
maximum.  We have had excellent results with the VRLA batteries although 
the oldest sites are floating on grid.  The off-grid installations we have 
(that cycle daily) are newer so we have less data.

Good luck.
