Deka Intimadator House Batteries TEST

[Seabyrd]

Lifelines are made by Concorde Battery Company I believe.

[truk4u]

Concorde Battery Corporation, the Aerospace/Aviation manufacturer, makes the Lifeline Batteries. Lifelines are built to the same specs as the Concorde.

The customer service at Lifeline, Warranty and the ability to talk to the owners about any battery issues is unparalleled in the industry.

Am I a little biased, oh ya!!!

2001 H345 VANTARE- Gave the 7/5/11 replacement house batteries a test while dry camping, a full charge, 28 degrees @ night and only the refrigirator in service along with other unknown devices that may draw from the house batteries and 30 minute period using gallery, salon & state room lights. See the attached manuf data sheet for spec`s. Results were:

4:30pm= 25.8 VDC
10:00pm= 25.2VDC
8:00am= 24.6VDC
12:00pm= 25.0VDC
5:00pm= 24.6VDC
7:30pm= 24.4VDC


Total = 1.4VDC voltage drop entire period. Comparing to the attached manuf data after abt 15hrs they were close to 50% discharged.

Anyone ever did a similarAttachment 9049Attachment 9050 test with Lifeline or Gel batteries for comparison ?

Zmax,

I tested my AGM batteries: yesterday at 11:19AM 13.00 volts in float
today at 10:00AM 12.35 volts
Total .65 volts drop

Refrigerator/freezer running along with other unknown devices.

My batteries will be 6 years old in January 2012.

Hope this helps you.

23hrs = 50% discharge. Who`s the battery manuf & what type inverters ?

Zmax,

Batteries are LifeLine Concorde AGMs (6) and one 2500w Heart Inverter.

I don't know if having Power Pulse on each battery bank had made any difference in their longevity.
