BATTERY REQUIRED FOR OPERATION (Battery not included)

Recommended Battery Type:
Battery 12-volt, Group U-1; sealed (maintenance free); 30 amp hour minimum. This type of battery is commonly known as a lawn tractor or wheel chair battery. You can easily find them at stores like Walmart, Sam's Club, etc.
Using a smaller amp hour battery may cause damage to the charging system. The wiring harness has two 1/4” ring terminals to connect to battery posts.

If the installation is located in an area that has frequent power outages (AC charged systems) or might experience weeks of no sun shine, then a larger amp hour battery needs to be considered. A 70 amp hour battery minimum would be recommended for those locations.

CAUTION!!! Do not install wet cell battery into control box; this type of battery usually has removable caps used for service and will vent into control box.
