Battery guide For PowerSpout

The recombination of hydrogen and oxygen is an exothermal process in which
heat is released. Wet cell batteries with recombination vents fitted will give the
longest life (and little need to top up with water) of any lead acid battery type.
Lives over 20 years are possible using top quality batteries. We strongly advise
you size your battery bank correctly and fit recombination vents as shown.

Some recombination caps are unsuitable for equalising charge of batteries and
must be removed prior to equalising them. If a controller is used with an
automatic equalise function, then take care to buy caps that do not have to be
removed during equalise charges.
