[QUOTE="adder, post: 2188338, member: 12693"] That exide Solatron does have good spec but I still not convinced, may be it can last that long, Luminous 60 month warranty solar tubular battery advertise as 1500 cycles despite weighing less then exide 6LMSL series which have advertised as 1200 cycles. But I am sure the flooder batteries will out last the gel batteries. Mobile towers, railways still use flooded 2v tubular batteries no one uses gel batteries. They are also like 30 % more expensive then 6LMS series. Flin will be venting hot air at heavy load but if there is a high enough ceiling and if let the door open under your stair case area, then it should rise up along with H2. Flin as settings for low voltage cut off, so if the battery voltage drops below the set parameter it can either switch to Mains power or shutdown the output if their is No mains or solar. It will also take into consideration the load connected when displaying the battery state of charge, it has a rough idea that the lower battery voltage is due to heavy load vs the low battery voltage with minimal load.This is only for the display. When the voltage goes to 21v to 24v or 42v to 48v user configurable for 2 or 4 battery system respectively, it will shut down the output or switch to Mains.

Since there was practically no power cuts. I went and put a 200L solar water heater and a pressure boosting Pump and a 60Liter pressure tank, all totaling about 1lakh or so with zero labor, all plumbing connections where done by me and my dad. I broke a finger in the process. No longer need to wait for geyser to heat up after some one else takes a bath and off course the reduced power bill. Also because of pressure boosting pump, I can use aerators will 1l to 3l min water flow, thus also saving water, compared to the earlier 10 to 15l/ min water flow. While the lonely Flin is mounted with all connections made including a self made marine plywood battery box, minus the battery and solar panels. Was trying to procure Lifep04 bare cells, some advertised as BIS certified, If I make my own battery pack they work out about 60% more expensive then exide 6lms, including BMS boards for each cell in series, the data sheet the indian sellers provide is basically cut copy paste from Chinese sellers. So not really sure about the cycle life claims.But Just thinking about no fans or maintenance makes me won't to plunge but need more proof about the cycle life, worst case is that they match the exide cycle life.
