mostly AGM's.</FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d">We're
seeing more and more interest in grid tied battery backup systems in the
Bay Area. Anyway, I'm finding that off the shelf battery boxes are quite
expensive - the products from MidNite Solar, DPW, etc are all really
nice but super pricey.</SPAN></P>

favorite batteries is also appreciated.</SPAN></P>
