What is the best way to winterize batteries when you have solar panels of your R-pod?


Depending on how big your PV array is, the most you'd need to do is add a battery disconnect to kill the "dark current" and park in the sun.

If the rpod is parked in the sun you don't have to do anything.

Just leave your solar power system charging and be sure all your 12vdc loads are turned off. For flooded batteries check battery water levels about once a month until you know how fast the water is disappearing. ]]> Mon, 18 Oct 2021 08:09:32 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14991&PID=145678#145678 winterizing batteries : What is the best way to winterize... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14991&PID=145677#145677 Author: pat.mckenzie
