I wire them thru bus bars now, but in the past before I did that I used to move them around occasionally.

Yes, this is the same guy that convinced a few of my customers that most installers are clueless because we clean terminals with a wire brush instead of a razor blade (and don't believe in desulphators). Now it seems he's telling folks that batteries should always be operated in the exact Sequence in which they were originally configured. i.e. #1 in the string should always be #1, #2 should always be #2 etc. I've been suggesting to folks (who still run multi string set ups) that they physically mix up their batteries periodically (at least once mid life cycle), to manually alter high resistance current paths. Call me old fashion, but I'm of the impression that only Kirchhoff's Laws apply here. Am I missing something - again? Thanks db Dan Brown Foxfire Energy Corp.
