    If it stops raining, I'll be able to go down to the workshop and check.

    That looks like being a few hours away.

    SSB HVT-50D first test

    13/02/20 First test results for the SSB HVT-50D, a 60Ah AGM.


    After fully charging the SSB on the 09/02/20 and letting the battery settle overnight, on the 10/02/20, a 2.1A amp load was applied.

    The battery was discharged down to 10.69v ( around 2% SoC ) and supplied a total of 68 amperes ( 68Ah ).

    PLEASE NOTE, this is a 60Ah battery based on a C20 rating ( 3 amp discharge load ) but the test was conducted at a ( roughly ) C30 rating.


    This is why the total discharge ampere hours was higher than the battery’s 60Ah rating.


    I will continue to conduct a number of discharge tests using the 2.1 amp load and then will conduct a C20 ( 3 amp load ) test.

    Online order (not Ebay) of $236 plus $41 freight (less that a week with a courier) plus $8.13 freight insurance (as recommended by the seller). For most things coming to Darwin, freight is the killer.

    I’ve been out of internet for a few weeks now. What was the result of the SSB vs Optima tests?
