I just got new batteries for the rig

Post by Dennis The Bus Dweller »

Hi gang
I just picked up 6 rolls 6 volt deep cycle batteries for my bus/home. These things are huge }:o) 820 amp hour each }:o) 318 lb's each }:o) I will be moving the 24/6 volt gulf cart batteries over to cayyle trailer/leather shop. Between the bus and the leather shop there will be 2200 watts of PV's and a little Air-X wind turbine to keep them charged. I will be replacing some of my 51 watt panels soon down the road with new 125's as soon as I recover from buying the new batteries, panels and inverter. I have 12 51 watt Kyocera panels that I would consider getting rid of if anyone wants a starter system. There 13 years and still in good shape it's just that larger wattage panels are a better bang per square foot for a bus roof. I want $2000.00 plus shipping if anyone can use them.
Peace along the way
