  • replacing battery

    two years ago I got set up with an off grid installation, with 4x 6volt 400amp/hr fusion agm batteries. One of the batteries has failed and the installer/dealer wants nothing to do with it. Can I replace the failed battery without replacing all 4.

    Yes, you can replace it. Nothing will "blow up" usually, But expect the 3 others to be in decline too 2 years is good for daily use AGM,
    (AGM lasts half as long and costs 2x as much as flooded)
    What was the warranty time for the batteries ?
    If one has failed, why would the others not be far behind it ?
