Why are my batteries failing in my solar setup?

I have a simple setup: 1 55w Panel in 12v mode, feeding a Trace C35 charge controller with a 15amp meter in series, charging 4 17aH 12v batteries connected in parallel. Then a 300w inverter with a 15amp meter feeding off the batteries. I have used...


You have at least two problems:

1. your solar array is too small, especially for short winter days, it may only be pumping in a total of 150watt hours per day.

2. your inverter is probably draining too much power...

    It’s a routine familiar to those registering for an identity card or a passport, but at the Criminal Record Office (CRO) in Kharadar, this is how the police creates records of suspects.

    The man with the muffler has been accused of stealing a cell phone, and his record is added to CRO’s collection. The office has been keeping records since 1959 of anyone who has been arrested by the police, save those who commit petty crimes such as pillion riding when it has been banned.

    The CRO started taking digital photos in 2007, but it still does photos the old fashioned way. In another room, handcuffed suspects pose in front of a manual camera mounted on a stand. They hold a black plaque; the number of the digital picture is their identification number. They are finger printed. The suspect’s personal details, picture and alleged crime are added in a file that matches the category of the crime he has reportedly committed.

    AGM Battery Bank Failure - Help ! - Cruisers & Sailing Forums

    by svladybug

    Last time i came to the boat the battery bank was very low and the boat barely started. Running the engine for hours did not help so I tested each battery and found one bad 245ah unit. i took it out the circuit and now everything appeared to be working, the remaining batteries taking a charge. I use the boat for a week no problems. Now I leave the boat and solar panel on to maintain batteries (as i have for years). Most wisdom suggest that the batteries in a bank contain batteries of not only equivalent voltage and amperage, but that they indeed be the same brand and age. This is largely suggested because of the need to avoid some of the problems you may be encountering. That being that a bad...
