frater_secessus [Is solar mandatory?]
Line 7: Line 7:
   * solar doesn't wear out or get used up in the normal sense.  No maintenance required!   * solar doesn't wear out or get used up in the normal sense.  No maintenance required!
   * solar brings higher voltages to battery charging, which is healthy for them.  Lead-acid batteries that don't get a full, higher voltage [[electrical:12v:charging#absorption_stage|Absorption stage]] will not be fully charged.  Which will [[electrical:batterycide|kill them]].   * solar brings higher voltages to battery charging, which is healthy for them.  Lead-acid batteries that don't get a full, higher voltage [[electrical:12v:charging#absorption_stage|Absorption stage]] will not be fully charged.  Which will [[electrical:batterycide|kill them]].
 +  * Absorption stage is high voltage and decreasing current, which is exactly what solar does well
   * This higher-voltage solar charging [[electrical:12v:alt_and_solar|can be combined]] with the higher-current nature of alternator/isolator charging for maximum power and minimum expense.    * This higher-voltage solar charging [[electrical:12v:alt_and_solar|can be combined]] with the higher-current nature of alternator/isolator charging for maximum power and minimum expense.
