Heya, anyone in the UK happen to have 8x 304ah cells available? I promised to build a battery for a friend's narrowboat and well I ended up being diagnosed with cancer in Dec and went through treatment and I have the all clear now. Been in touch with Amy but there's the usual 8 week wait...
Sorry beginner level Q here, about to purchase from Amy Wan, do I just transfer the money and forget about it or do I need to think about insurance or something? My order total comes to about £1500.
So the panels we're considering is 3 of these 330w half cut panels https://www.sunshinesolar.co.uk/Item/TSM330?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI27j3lMio8wIVGertCh1FHAewEAQYASABEgK9m_D_BwE vs 5 of these...
Yeah because it'll be a boat on the uk canal network there'll be some considerations to put into place and decisions made. If I'm honest though neither of us had considered half cut panels. I read up a brief amount about them
Are you sure 12a will be enough? Either way best to use a PSU, for instance a cheap bench power supply is a useful thing to have anyway and can do the job depending on its current limit. Just be sure to set it to 12v to be safe, battery chargers can output upto 16v hence why things can blow...
They will be in series, I've asked for their specs so can double check their compatibility. I didn't think about future proofing, atm it's a small boat but they may wish to upgrade and take things with them I suppose. Thanks both :)
