Solar & Backup Batteries

Off-grid, on-grid, mobile, or otherwise – whatever your renewable energy application, we have a battery solution to support it.
Different jobs call for different power, so it’s important to find the right type of battery for your needs. Choosing the right lead-based batteries for your appliances helps to provide the best power while prolonging the life and run-time of your battery backup systems. Backup batteries fall into different categories, each designed to provide unique benefits:

 

General Purpose

The most versatile type of SLA battery is the general purpose option; this offers reliable power for backup and cycling applications, making them a great fit for common household use. General-purpose batteries are a popular choice for everyday electronics, security systems, emergency lighting, and backup energy.  In an emergency situation, you need power you can count on. High-rate SLA batteries have a long life and require little maintenance, making them a safe choice for emergency devices. Medical equipment, cable, and internet housing, and data centers are just a few of the backup applications that benefit from high-rate SLA batteries.

 

Deep Cycle

If you’re looking for trustworthy long-term power, deep-cycle batteries offer the quality you need. This choice features designs that provide a constant power flow for a sustained period, making it popular for applications with long run times. Choose a deep cycle battery for trolling motors, marine needs and smaller motorized vehicles like wheelchairs, scooters and golf carts.

 

Gel

Like a deep cycle battery, a gel valve-regulated lead acid battery provides dependable long-term power. A gel (commonly called AGM) battery also offers the greatest number of cycles, making it the ideal choice for heavy, everyday use. The deep discharge and long life make gel batteries perfect for RV and marine power, wheelchairs and scooters, and heavy power applications like water pumping and wind generation.
