Which is using nano carbon, for 3000 cycles to 50%. Other battery companies also have carbon/lead at up to 4000+ cycles for VRLA, and Rolls has 4500 cycles for flooded, both at 50% DOD. The UnigyII is tried and proven tech, but low cycle life compared to the newer carbon LA chemistries. jay Peltz Power > On Sep 26, 2019, at 2:55 PM, Jerry Shafer <jerrysgarag...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Howie > Understand but the reality is that inverter is going to fail and then it may > be to late to make an upgrade and it will be more costly.
