With supposed "supply chain" problems having a real effect on getting things, I need your recommendation on batteries.
Power storage requirements- 24v 100AH (I suppose that 12v batteries in series would be the best approach)
Price is important and so is quality and I don't want to burn down my house with the "help" of a low quality battery. Safety, fire and explosion are an overriding concern.
So, here's the question;
-Which LifePo manufacturer or model do you recommend? Battle Born is most likely beyond my price range....but quality IS important and they seem to be extremely good. They may be good...but no one at Battle Born answers the phone when you call. "Leave a message".
I saw Will's analysis of the Chins 12v 100 AH and it seems a pretty good one but am not sure if I read it can't be put in series.
- Which deep cycle AGM or FLA would you recommend? Golf cart batteries? The necessity of servicing an FLA battery isn't a concern- I'll do it gladly.
FLA batteries will always be around and locally available (not necessarily deep cycle). Lithium are not as available.
What do you think....what are your ideas?
Thanks,
Peter
