Equalization
Just because I have unemployed for 2.5 years doesn't mean I don't
have to work. I was refilling the water level on 24 of our lead acid
batteries at 8pm this evening. It is not difficult, but certainly
uncomfortable and I always seem to get battery acid on myself in
weird places. Today I think I got it on the back of my neck. These
batteries store the energy from our PV solar panels and can sustain
us for about 5 days (in theory) if we had no sunshine at all. My
actual experience is that just to get these batteries to a raging
boil fully equalized charge takes one week of us switching over to
grid power and not using the batteries at all.
