| Trojan T-105 Battery
|
We've started with 8 Trojan T-105
(golf cart) batteries. These are unsealed deep-cycle
lead-acid batteries.
They're not particularly expensive batteries, and we're likely to
replace them in a few years with batteries that have a longer lifetime.
For now, we expect they'll do just fine. |
Specification |
|
| DC250
|
This is a circuit breaker that
protects the battery, inverter, and DC cables from damage caused by short
circuits and overloads. The breaker interrupts a surge from the battery
that can occur when short-circuited.
It is also designed to provide a long enough time delay to allow the
inverter to surge to full power without nuisance tripping of the breaker.
If it is tripped, it can be reset. |
