What’s a good Battery and Mobile Solar Array Choice

There are a lot of battery choices on the market. AGM, Gel, Lithium, and Deep Cycle Marine. A few things to note: Deep Cycle Marine are very dependable and require an outdoor setting because of vents from the side of the battery. A lot of people use AGM because of its accessibility, but the Amp Hour of the battery is something you really want to look into. They range from 65 amp/hr to 400 amp/hr and more. A Gel battery is a VRLA battery, which contains mass that’s gel-like and immobile. Unlike a flooded wet-cell lead-acid battery, these batteries do not need to be kept upright.

Now Lithium batteries are very nice because of their life span. They can last for nearly a decade if used for weekend trips. Advanced 36V, 48V, and 72V Lithium batteries can be used for low-speed systems for leisure applications such as electric golf carts or for utility electric vehicles. RVs are starting to utilize these long lifespan batteries. Solar Arrays have revolutionized the RV and Travel Trailer Industry, charging up mobile units where electricity is not accessible.

Lithium batteries are quickly becoming the standard for house battery banks in RVs. With near linear charge and discharge rates paired with lower weights and deep discharge cycles, these batteries hold and deliver the power better than other types. They are more expensive, but the warranties can be as long as 10 years.
