Solar Batteries

[BradP]

I am considering installing a solar system, but because of the cost I plan on doing it in steps. Plan on installing a good inverter and some solar batteries first.
My question is: Can I charge solar batteries like other deep cycle batteries with a generator or shore power with no adverse affects to the battery?

Thanks for the help

Good one.

A few years ago, the camper in the campsite next to mine asked where to get good batteries for his solar power installation.

I told him, "Make friends with the greens keeper at your local golf course and arrange for him to sell you 'golf cart' batteries."

His response was, "Why didn't I think of that? I am the greens keeper at a golf course."

Wells guys thanks for the responses. I also thought there was no such thing as a special solar battery, but every time I research solar systems I find "solar batteries" in the ad. Now I see its just a marketing scheme.
Nope not a plant just a guy that fell for the marketing BS.

Take a couple guesses BFL13, I think you know what's going on here.

Unless that is a brand name, there is no such thing as "Solar Batteries".
