Friends:
We are shopping for industrial, flooded, lead acid batteries. We are
considering 12 volt packages in the 1800 AH range. Under consideration are:
Hawker 12-25W-23S at 1705 AH or MK 106M1033STB at 1896 AH.
Have any of you had experience with either, or recommend another option?
As
I install large battery banks ALL the time. We DO NOT use any battery that is
incased in a metal enclosure.
REAL pain to move, cells DO go bad when they do its a real pain to bring the
engine hoist to remove them. Hard to keep the cases from leaking rusting.
We DO use the Surrette 2 volt
I second Tump's experience!

I agree with Daryl and Tump
And would add Trojan IND as an option to the Rolls and made in SoCal
Also most of the industrial battery folks make 2v cells.

Here's a third for 2V Surrette's... However you should discuss details
with this list or someone at Surrette regarding your application. For an
example, Solar Power source? C/rate? Are you replacing a set of golf cart
batts or batteries with similar charging needs as these large cells?
William.we have used a set of industrial flooded lead acid batteries
made by a company called Storage Battery Systems (www.sbs*battery*.com)The
batteries are 2V batteries with 3200Ah capacityThey come with a variety
of warranty options. Our client decided on the 20 year option (5 years
I've got two Hawker installs out here, a 48 Volt and a 24 Volt system. Both are
going on 6 years or so. Clients are happy, I'm happy. It does resemble work to
move and place them. We typically use Egyptian techniques when heavy equipment
isn't available or appropriate. Inclined plane, big pry
Wrenches,
Very seldom do inverters in off grid systems ever go to sleep
anymore, given the increase in phantom electronic loads and greater
customer expectations. Coupled with lower module prices, we usually
size larger arrays and inverters remain on continuously.

That is not expected behavior. Which model of SPD are you using?

Ryan,
I may have found the answer to my original post, but it raises
more questions.
I wrote that these were MV units (MNSPD300), but I checked with my
lead tech and learned that in both cases he used LV units
(MNSPD115). Could this be the reason?
Hi Dick,
Best trick I ever learned for these metal cased is to build a
wheeled base with steel wheels.
Yea, still have to get them onto the base, but then its easy.
Also when I use metal cased batteries I like to have them with removable
series interconnects
not the welded type.
Carl,
We have had excellent tech support from Solar Bridge!
