Has anyone used this battery as a component for a battery bank?

No I have not. Only for a replacement for the stock lead acid battery in my motorcycle. Sorry .

Are you selling a kidney? These batteries are kind of expensive. Seriously, they are sensitive to anti sulfating charges like you might get with one of those battery tenders. Aside from that, go for it. Should work fine.

Don't connect the BM to a battery bank that is wired in series to produce 48V. Your options are to separate the batteries from each other and charge them individually with the BM or disconnect them from the system and then wire them in parallel for charging with the BM. Both of these options might be a lot of work to accomplish the proper charging of your battery bank.

NO. This is a carbon cell battery, designed for low drain over extended periods.

Wasn't aware of this [requiring a non-std batt] - mine works fine with a 12 volt deep cycle from wally-world. There are other issues with this model (brand?); connections and side-scanning limitations.

Absolutely. I had a fully charged battery in a drawer for a couple months. Popped it in at full charge and its still going strong a few hundred pictures later. I am really impressed by these batteries.

Yes, but it doesn't work. This is too good of a battery to worry about the small stuff. Thank you. Robert A. Watson

Yes, Thats how I always used it. This battery will die after a couple of years. Might that be your problem?

Absolutely, if you wire up the appropriate 12V battery with the current capacity you need for the target runtime. It would be a relatively trivial hack to do if you want to, but is it designed to do so? No.

Not that I'm aware of as i have only used this for motorcycle batteries and so have others.

I have this battery on my BD Matrix. It came with it and I bought a second one, both work well.

No , but I would recommend it , as it will drain the batt if you use it to long , as that has happen to me ,

No. I tried the same thing. But there is circuitry to prevent overcharging which would damage your batteries that is missing in the circuit.

I've hooked up several on a battery that I keep charged with a solar panel. If you are using a power supply just be sure to over size it.

Sorry, I haven't used it yet. Bought it as a second battery and haven't needed yet.

Hi Pamela,I sought out this battery to power a portable pitching machine. It was the only one I could find that had enough power to do so. I have been very happy with it.

I don't think so. I have done this a few times and the battery pack still performed pretty well.
