Off-grid solar systems, both large and small, utilize solar batteries.
Solar batteries store the power generated by the solar panels for later use.
The amount of batteries required for a project is dependant on the electric
load it is meant to serve. The bigger the load and the longer it must be able
to run without sun, the more solar batteries are required.
The Deka 8A27 is one of
our most popular solar batteries.
In order to get the most out of your solar batteries, a charge controller is required.
Charge controllers regulate the current into the batteries while charging during daylight hours.
Some of our most popular charge controllers include the Xantrex C40 and the Steca PR3030.
In order to use large solar cells in the home a consumer must have
a solar cell system and must own the home. However, solar batteries
are ideal for renters who want to go green. People who rent can use
the sun's energy without contracting with the landlord or the electric
company.
