Mean Well power supply for my usage
I've been reading old threads for a couple of hours. I'm fairly sure a Mean Well p.s. can do what I want to do, but I'd appreciate if one of you early adopters can point me to a specific model, etc. ...

I used to have a bank of three of these 850Ns, rated at 120AH. Load testing came pretty close to that. There was a thread or two about 27s really being rated at some funny amount other than their actual 20hr rate and it came out they really are 102AH at the 20hr rate or some such, but these 850Ns did way better than that. Based on my testing they did 120 when new.
They hated 50-90s and got Bolshie about recovering to baseline SG and got to be such a PITA I went to 6s. No 27s ever again!!! :(

27s come in several AH sizes it seems. Many are 105AH but these are 120AH and some 31s are about that.
Watch the RC too. The ratio of RC to AH is all over the map with these things. Go with the highest RC if the AH don't make sense. Then there is always the bathroom scales to weigh the battery--take the heaviest.
