I don't recall seeing covers on AGM cells, just small perfs.
I got about 7 minutes from my desktop UPS (450VA IIRC). The rest have failed at the worst moments, NOT keeping my comp running when the power went off. I've bought maybe 3x the number of batteries than I have UPSes so far.
That's a lotta volts.
Ayup. That's safer.
I like the current limiting in the cheapie 0-30.0v 0-3.00A Chiwanese lab supply, and suppose I could get finer adjustment with a milliammeter inline and the fine tune pot.
Nice and beefy!
So, output from the PS to solar input terminals on the controller? Unusual, but I guess it'd work, wouldn't it? Cool.
Hooked up in series or parallel to charge? I don't know APC1400 specs or setup.
I nearly -ran- out of an electric shop once after getting a quote on brushes. I guess they hate competition.
They _are_, aren't they? Nasty stuff to work with.
Yeah, IF the local gov'ts do recover. What if the area is larger, like the whole east coast? Prepping is truly cheap, compared to the alternative.
That's why I took most of my trees down. I'd rather my house not be a target, thanks.
But the rich folks' armed bodyguards might take things from others if others aren't careful.
