If you are using flooded lead acid cells, one thing to consider is the
use of HydroCaps. These devices reduce both water consumption and gas
generation. They are commonly used in both marine and solar power
applications.
I have used them in back up power applications and they work well as

Charging batteries at a site after an extended power failure can be a
problem. There are not a lot of automotive/boat applications where the
battery is completely discharged like what happens at a radio site after
