I’m back with more info that will help you get started on the whole going off the grid process. As Bob told me, it’s very important that we are informed when buying important components for our solar power system. After all, we do want to build something that will last and will provide the amount of energy we need don’t we?
Batteries are critical components of any solar power system,
as they are the component of the system in which the power produced by
your solar panels is stored until you are ready to use it. They come in a
variety of different sizes and types. In fact, there are 4 basic types of batteries
you may choose from. As I told you last week, it is crucial that you
first asses your energy needs.The battery you choose will depend upon
your power needs as well as the other parts of your solar power system,
including your solar panels and inverter.
Here are some facts about the 4 types of batteries you can choose from:
RV/Marine/Golf Cart
These batteries are designed for small vehicles and boats and also for small solar power systems. They are also named deep cycle batteries.
However, they don’t have the ability to provide continuous service
through many charges and discharges over the years. So if you use this
type of battery, you will notice that it will not last as long as many
of the other types of batteries.
