Drake,
Your request is missing specifics so my answer can only be generic. Get away from all L16s. Go to one string of industrial cells. There are numerous well-respected brands. I would put HUPs at about the top. www.hupsolarone.com. Spend some time on this website and it will become more clear.

Hello Wrenches,

Even after my clients have learned to maintain their batteries properly, the Trojan L-16 batteries continue to crater, one cell at a time. One client is considering spending $12,000 on a nickel - iron battery bank he found on the web. This seems like a ridiculously large investment, but he is feeling desperate. We urgently need another option from the Trojan L-16s.

How are the Surrette L-16s holding up? Would you recommend them as worth the extra investment? 

What is the best battery to use in an off grid system these days.

Thanks,

Drake
