I am in my 8th year of off-grid living. My previous battery bank (conventional lead-acid marine batteries) lasted that long because I do not draw my batteries down below 75% of capacity. I decided to switch to Renogy 200 AH AGM in order to reduce the number of batteries in the bank. Just one of them never draws down below 50% of capacity, even as we no approach the shortest day and least direct sun of the year. I will soon add at least two more of these batteries in order to keep capacity at above 75%. (PS: FYI, my solar panels are Renogy 100 watt monos in an 8-panel (40 amp) 12v array, feeding a Renogy 40 amp MPPT charge controller.)
Used this battery right out of the box. After two days of use for lighting my small space, it only dropped 2 tenths of a volt without charging. I bought 2 more and can't wait to hook em up to my solar....PB
I am going to hook it up this week. So currently I can't give a valid review. I will say i've had a lot of really good advice by the staff. So for that I give 5 stars
The AGM 200Ah battery arrived in five days. Its very heavy and large. I had initially planned to use it in the van, but decided not to because of its large size and heavy weight (128 lbs) and was not sure if I should connect it with the 100 Ah AGM batteries in the van. I installed it instead with the solar unit on my property. It was 84% charged when hooked up to the charge controller. It charged up to 100% within a half hour and has been working great. I own three Renogy 100Ah AGM batteries purchased over the last two years and they all perform well in my van. I’ve been satisfied with the performance of Renogy batteries and plan to order more in the near future.
So far so good, the battery arrived with no damage luckily and was at 13.2v. Seems heavy duty and runs my 12v solar refrigerator just fine with 4-100 watts panels and 40A Mppt solar charger. I also use a 2000 watt inverter/charger to run a Keurig coffee pot and a 1HP 120v deep well pump no problem.
