Wayne,
First, let's hope you mean 12 of the 2YS31. A single battery string is always 
preferable to multiple strings in my book. The only downside is interconnect 
cables the same size as your inverter cables. That probably means 4/0 CU for 
most 24V, 3KW and up inverters. Two strings in parallel-not too bad. Three 
strings- as far as you want to push it. More strings- Don't go there.

Hello Esteemed Battery Gurus,

Which of the following do you believe is the better 24 V battery bank?

A) 13 - Rolls 2-YS-31 2430 AH @ 20 HR (one string) 

or 

B) 9 -  Rolls 8-CS-25P 820 AH @ 20 HR (3 strings of 3)

Thank you in advance for your input!
