3 Apprpriate uses fr Battery Types Off-Grid, Residential r Industrial Deep-Cycle Flded LA, Deep-cycle VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) (AGM r Gel), Carbn LA, Tubular Gel, Lithium Irn Phsphate, Nickel types Grid-Tie Backup Pwer Backup VRLA, Lithium-In (NMC), Lithium Irn Phsphate, Carbn LA, Tubular VRLA Self-Cnsumptin (Self-Supply) and Time f Use Lithium-In (NMC), Lithium Irn Phsphate, Carbn LA Peak-Lad Shaving Lithium-In (NMC), Lithium Irn Phsphate, Carbn LA, Deep-cycle VRLA, Tubular VRLA

4 Flded Lead Acid (Deep Cycle Type) Prs Lwer initial cst than VRLA in smaller sizes Mderate t Excellent cycle life Electrlyte lss is replaceable Less sensitive t vercharging Cns Nt sealed Cannt be munted n its side Ships as hazardus gds Cannt be shipped by air Requires islatin (seal ducts) & ventilatin May require spill cntainment and absrptin equipment Maintenance required Water must be added ~mnthly Regular equalizatin charges needed Reduced life at higher temperatures Less efficient Higher self discharge, Higher flat current than VRLA batteries
