thats an excellent battery bank you bought, i checked out your link on another thread , they weigh 160kgs each? but you spent $7000 and even if they last 10yrs its still $700 a year plus interest forfeited, im looking for a way much cheaper than that. found some junked sealed batteries the other day. will try an equalize on them but will do it outside in case of any explosions. the way i see it, if i can get serviceable L.A. batteries for next to nothing, regardless of the type, then i will have my free sun power
CCA verses RC

So based on your questions, we all can only assume you no clue what AH, CCA, CA, RC, and HCA are.MSEE, PEComment

If you believe you can get free power please list your expenditure to date on batteries, panels, inverters, controllers wire ect,
and how much power you will be able to produce over time that will give you free power,
or even a cost effective power supply.Comment

A SLI and Hybrid batteries plates do not completely fill the jar. They leave space in the bottom of the jar to collect flaking from plate corrosion which occurs in Starting Application. All 3 are made quite differently.
SLI uses Lead Calcium on both positive and negative plate. Hybrids use Lead anatomy on one plate polarity, and lead calcium on the other, Deep Cycles have both plates made of lead anatomy. All three are made differently.MSEE, PEComment

Good luck with that,

Incorrect, BCI clearly states labeling requirements and specification. BCI are not Marketers, it is made of scientist, engineers, and battery manufactures. While I agree a Deep Cycle battery does have a CCA, but it would be really low, and would imply it could be used for starting whichautomatically voids the warranty because you can damage them doing so.

Click this one, scroll Different Kind of Batteries to see SLI, Hybrid (dual purpose), and Deep Cycle. As for seeing the BCI Technical Manual cost money. However is very easy to find the Terms because all reputable battery manufactures use BCI terminology, or you can just Google each one. It is not hard TO DO.
,
SLI = Starting Lighting and Ignotion. The will have on CCA, CA, and sometimes MCA and RC. They will not have AH
Hybrids use many Marketing names like Marine Deep Cycle, Golf Cart, RV. Leisure, Trolling, Floor Machine, and the list goes on. They will contain some or all rating of CCA, CA, MCA, RC, and AH trying to be all things.
Deep Cycle are just that and only have AH rating period.
They are not my terms. You cannot spin them as they are clearly defined specs world wide. Something anyone can find. They are Industry terms/specs that come from and defined by BCI (Battery Counsel International) and apply in every country.Comment

Again we can only assume you do not know what any of the definitions are or what they mean.MSEE, PEComment

You need help. They clearly defined SLI, Hybrid, and Deep Cycle. You are not going to get a link to BCI documents unless you are member of the organization or pay for it like any professional organization. Bu tyou can peice it all together from the manufactures documentation.

Hybrids are the ones made from both Calcium and Antimony and they will list both AH, RC, and CCA.MSEE, PEComment

ok , so does this mean bala was right when he told me the "marine batteries" i bought are just SLI with a "marine battery" sticker on it? they list CCA and RC but not AH although the rc is higher than other SLI batteries with similar CCA ratingsComment

Without looking back through various threads I believe what I said was basically no one in their right mind would go out the pacific ocean relying on budget batteries, and with those same budget batteries that what is on a label may or may not be what you think you are getting and contrary to what you thought about the company not risking their brand name ( Supercheap Auto) I doubt they have anything to worry about.Comment
