Deep Cycle GEL Battery Banks

Overview

Shipping GEL Batteries Currently!

At last, the ultimate off-grid deep cycle batteries! RPS is finally offering the highest quality VLRA GEL sealed batteries with operation lifetime up to 15 years and 1,350-1,550 cycles (50% DOD) before they lose only 40% of their capacity. 

Compare that to standard flooded lead acid batteries and you will see you are getting 3-4 times the lifetime for about the same cost. Plus at 55ah and 12V, these pack a punch yet are easy to carry and handle.

Gone are the days of checking and filling batteries every few months and risks with battery acid spilling.  Bar none, these are the highest quality and longest lifetime lead acid batteries on the market today! 

Always use like batteries when expanding battery arrays, do NOT mix AGM with GEL or 55Ah with 160Ah.

*Estimated run time depends on exact pumping head and volume.

**For RPS400's operating towards maximum pump capability, use 48V battery bank.

Note: Adding batteries to an existing RPS200/400/800 will not increase overall water production if system is running all day and not allowing down time to charge batteries.  Batteries allow shifting of pumping time from daytime to evening/night.  More panels are also needed to increase overall water production if system is running all day.
