Has anyone used a “self-watering” system for batteries? I built some shelves where the front bench is so they are hard to access on a regular basis.
I didn’t understand that the 2.4 was per cell. Thankstypical RV charging voltage for lead acid is 13.6V, divided by 6 cells, thats 2.25V per cell. 2.4V times 6 cells is 14.4V which some lead acid systems use as an absorption voltage.
Yes, I saw that. There are other manufacturers of those devices, and the 2.4 Volts refers to an individual battery cell. A 6V or 12V battery is made of multiple individual cells, interconnected.Very cool but this is from the website:
Recommended Usage:
Solar panels and shore power charge at more than 2.4 volts.
- Max. charging voltage: 2.4 Volts +/- 1%
- Recommended for stationary batteries only. Not intended for batteries subjected to rough motion.
Where the trailer typically resides. Heat makes a big difference. I bet those in the cooler north states don't have to add water as often as those in the hot southwest states. It's something I check twice a year. When I dewinterize and when I winterize. But I live in a pretty temperate climate.Anyone have an explanation why some unites batteries need water more often then others ?
