I have what I consider to be a large battery bank, all LIFEPO4. I have six EG4 100 Ah batteries and eight 270 amp hour batteries for a total of 2,840 Amp hours or 581,632 nonimal watt hours. This has been in operation since 2024.
I turned off the six EG4 batteries and two of my 280AH batteries leaving me six 280 Am hour batteries on line. this is leaving me with 1,680 Amp Hours as an experiment to see if I can survive the spring/summer/fall seasons with reduced batteries on line, thereby saving daily duty cycles on approx. 40% of my battery bank. Batteries would only be a click away if needed and on full time from November through February when I need them the most.
I am hoping this will save my duty cycles on the more expensive batteries if I check on them once a month and charge them up if needed.
any thoughty?
