Like I said in my original message - every manufacturer is different when it
comes to VRLA batteries.
The problems we have seen with gel batteries is not at room temperature, but at
the elevated temperatures like you often see in hot climates, like in Arizona.
However, I cannot find any actual
Actually, at least from the local MK/Deka distributor, the gel and AGM are
within a few cents of each other.

Not sure what "CEC specced panels" means. Everything CEC must be listed to

We are considering some modules that use "solar grade Si" (a nice
re-branding of the cheaper metallurgical grade Si). I have heard some
claims of more rapid panel degradation? Wondering if any of you all have
already been down this path and come to any conclusions?

Let's make sure we are making a distinction between "differential
coefficient of expansion" and "(heat induced) warping". All material (Al
alloy and low-Fe glass among them) undergo a change of dimension as a
function of temperature. Pure aluminum and many of its alloys have a
differential coeffici

According to others on this list, the sine wave Magnum won't run one, so I
would be very cautious.
