Hi there. New to the forum and hope to learn/share with all of you. My question is about equalizing my battery bank. I have a cottage/cabin off grid with 4, 85 watt solar panels, a 2412 Trace DR Series Inverter/Charger, Solar Boost Charge controller and 12, 6 volt, 225 ah FLA batteries wired in series/parallel combination. I have been able to successfully equalize then in the past using a
generator but recently I cannot get the equalization voltage up and steady at 15 volts, therefore the equalization bulk/absorption/float charge process isn't happening. The batteries are 11 years old and made by Pow-er-Surge. I checked the SG of each cell and they are all in the "good" band. The generator is a Champion 9000/7200 watt gas powered unit.
Your thoughts/suggestions please.
