  • Replacing my Surrette 550's

    Shopping to replace my Surrette's. I've gotten almost 6 years out of them and they're taking a LOT of distilled water these days. So we want to get a new battery package in before winter.

    Current system:
    48VDC
    1280 Amp hours

    I'm leaning towards the Outback 1000XLC, ENERGYCELL XLC HIGH CAPACITY LEAD CARBON 1230AH but I'm not opposed to looking at other options. My budget is 25k and my two biggest priorities are cycles and proven reliability.

    I am not an expert, nor am I certified for anything. However, we are a family of 3 living off-grid since 2015.

    I would really like to hear from people who are living every day with off-grid power.

    Thank you.

    Take a look at Fullriver sealed AGM 1100 ah, 2 volt cells.
    I recently switched to LiFePo4 cells and am very happy with the results. I built my 460 ah @24 volts bank for just short of $2,000.
    2 Kw PV Classic 200, Trace SW 4024 460ah,
