I've been on hold with OB for about 40 minutes now and I need to know if 2 SW PVs with a Voc of 39.9 and a Vmpp of 31.3 will do an effective job of charging a 48 volt LA battery especially with temps of 95 degrees.  Anybody have experience with this or similar,  Appreciate the feedback.  It just seems I'm a little low in Vmpp if I want to equalize when its hot.  Will it be even more questionable in 10 years as PVs age?

OB did just pickup only to tell me I need Java for the string sizing tool and he can't help me with this configuration.

If it's a 48V system, you might also look at Blue Ion LiFePo batteries and eliminate the lead for good. I just installed my first set and consider it a game changer.

Good afternoon everyone,

What has been your experience with the Outback OPzV battery? I have a client who destroyed a set of Solar One HUP batteries (2490 A/HR) by forgetting to water them for a year. We are looking to take watering out of the equation. He does need this much storage (maybe more) My next thought was 3 strings of GS SLR 1000  batteries (cycle life is a lot better but at twice the cost)
I appreciate any and all input.
