Woo Hoo..New AGM Batteries



two of the new ones in their workplace, the battery rack

last night 7:30pm meter 12.93v lights and fans running
this morning 6:30 am (early for us) 12.62v down 65ampHrs from full

i set the capacity at 500amphrs although technically it would be 540 at the 20hr ? rate
8hr rate would be 480amphrs total to discharge

anyway it like 2011 all over again, now i can go days if need be instead of just overnight

    the cables on the other pair are very nicely covered in 'Appropriate' colored heat shrink

    i was in a hurry to get power back on in the RV as Ramona had NO Fans, while i had everything disconnected

    i will heat shrink these in the next few days

    i did use my Deoxit on the connections
    and sprayed them with the 'Shield' after i bolted them in place
  • I just love mine to bits. I hope they will serve Mr. Wizard well.

    When I'm being a pedestal prince the load support from the Magnum inverter charger behaves extremely nicely, and I've figure out how to force it to do voltage support at least for now.
  • AGM no-corrosion. Are you "rubbing-it-in" with those terminations? Flagrant nyah-nyah, I'd say. :)
