I have a 100AH x 4, i.e. 48v battery bank, flooded deep cycle batteries, on a solar inverter.
- The batteries are for backup in case of power failure so they're RARELY discharged.
- I have set a float of 52.8v
- Bulk charge at 57v.
- Room temperature goes as high as 44c.
Now I have read that if a battery isn't used / discharged at all, and is left on a float charge, it can be damaged? Is this true?
Should I do a monthly or twice monthly equalization to keep it healthy?
