Not here. Mostly using series 31 AGM but do have some series 27 AGM in service. 
Ask again in 10 years or so when I have to replace another round of arrays.

Speaking of batteries. Anyone using Lithium batteries on the solar systems?

Not sure how much power your equipment uses or how big your panels are, but 
assuming the power requirements are similar to UBNT you should be able to use 
2x12V marine deep cycles which you can pick up at tractor supply/menards for 
about roughly $100 apiece.

A wind turbine wouldn't be a bad idea either, but is going to cost you more.  
You can get a wind turbine for roughly $400, generally come with charge 
controller that takes both wind and solar for inputs.  But you'll also be 
looking at atleast another $100 for a pole to mount, on, wiring accessories, 
etc to get it installed.  Batteries would be cheaper solution especially for a 
temporary  situation.

Could you replace the batteries to get runtime that would last through the 
night? Without knowing the amp hour value of the array, I can't say for certain 
but I have several 24v solar sites that can go 3-4 days without needing 
attention...

I guess I don’t understand what you are asking. You say you don’t want to write 
a script, but then you talk about timed power shutoffs. What mechanism are you 
suggesting you would use to do that other than a script?
