What batteries do you use? Have they got bolt and nut connectors?



I bought (expensive) Deka Saturated Glass Mat, 12 V, and forgot to
physically disconnect the inverter during a recent 4 month lay-up. This
caused such severe sulphation that the batteries are now for the skip.



The boat is in Sardinia.



Thank you for any information you can give me.



Horst, Maramu 185

6 volt is the only way to go. you can discharge/ recharge a 6 volt
battery up to 1,000 times compared to a 12 volt, which the best only go
around 250. The plates are twice as thick on the 6 volt. I have used
them for at least 10 years, and would never go back. Two 6 volt
batteries provide almost the same amp hours as a 12 volt 8d, using only
two thirds the space, and they are a lot easier to get in and out of the
boat.
