Batteries - what's best and cheapest for long term cruising these days

Why is draining batteries empty with a headlamp and then leaving them like that for a month more competent than charging an AGM at 15V? Well, for one thing, it's more POSSIBLE. My chargers won't deliver 14 for very long. My solar cell will, but it delivers about an amp at best, so isn't going to cook anything. Anyone with a system, of any sort, that can deliver 15V at significant amperage will also have a charge controller. -- Jere Lull Xan-à-Deux -- Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD Xan's pages: http://web.mac.com/jerelull/iWeb/Xan/ Our BVI trips & tips: http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |
