We have had less than stellar performance out of the Crown L-16's that we installed 4 to 5 years ago. Premature failure is my experience. About 60% of the cycle life compared to Trojan L-16's and also Surrette/Rolls. I've been using those since 1985.
Back to using Trojan. Specifically RE-B's either L-16, or T-105. And have used Trojan Industrial IND 13-6V on one system with good success with another set ordered.

Should've consulted wrenches first. Should I be worried?? Eric Stikes SunHarvest Solar +1 (530) 798 - 3738 www.harvesthesun.com
