Thank you Allan. Howie - Sorry for not being more clear.
OCV = Open Circuit Voltage SG = Specific Gravity Best Regards, Ronald Paredes Technical Product Manager - Renewable Energy Trojan Battery Company 12380 Clark Street Santa Fe Springs, CA 90670 Tel: (562)236-3000 Ext. 3066 Fax: (562)236-3279 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> www.trojanbattery.com<http://www.trojanbattery.com/> Trojan Battery Company - Clean Energy for Life(tm) From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Allan Sindelar Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2010 9:48 PM To: RE-wrenches Subject: Re: [RE-wrenches] Trojan L16 2v vs 6v Howie, I understood it to mean Open Circuit Voltage, or resting voltage, as this formula tends to fit that.

I have over the years moved toward single strings whenever possible, having seen what I've assumed to be the negative effects of multiple strings many times (unbalanced banks, premature cell death, etc.). I greatly appreciate the information being offered in this thread. However, I must be thick headed at the moment, but I'm not getting what "OCV" means...
