Things You Must Know Before Buying A Residential Energy Storage Battery

Nov , 09 2021

With the requirement for energy growing by leaps and bounds in all aspects of life, it is wise to save energy for the future, instead of wasting away the excess. This is where a residential energy storage battery comes into the picture. When attached to the grid-based system, the battery stores sustainable energy and supplies it during the times when you cannot gain access to solar power or other ...

What is the right duration of Phase 2 of a charging cycle?

Nov , 27 2021

The duration of Phase 1 is determined by the battery’s depth of discharge, the ratio of charger ampacity to battery capacity, and whether there are parasitic DC loads connected to the system. Although the duration of Phase 1 does vary, we are not concerned with this variation since, once the battery capacity, charger output, and DC loads are installed, we have no means to change the duration of Ph...
