 

Type: We recommend the use of deep cycle batteries (particularly AGM) to handle the deep 
charge/discharge cycles in the wind turbine system. The deep cycle battery has less instant 
energy than the starting (cranking) ones used on cars, but greater long-term energy delivery. 
A car battery will not last as long when used for repeated deep charged/discharged cycles. 

 

Series/Parallel Connections: You have to connect 4 x 12V batteries in series to get a 48V group 
(24v system 2 x 12V batteries).
