I avoid HC batteries. I have a bank of the 370 AH batteries, and
they seem ok, not great.

I have 2 systems that I am trying to correct that another local dealer has
installed.
This one is 2 strings of (8) UL-16 HC Interstate Batteries, 16 batteries
total.
We cannot get the batteries to charge over 1.225 despite discharging them
and generator
HI Tom,
Are you saying that you are seeing 14 years on a single string of L-16's?
If so I would like to hear your charging recommendations.
thanks,

Yes the problem is hard sulfation due to chronically under
proper absorb times (do the math)
Can you talk more about this please.

IMHO Interstate makes a decent battery. It sounds like to me that you are not
Equalizing but just trying to BULK. You'll need at least one robust EQ cycle to
bring the SG's in line and likely 2-3 a couple of days apart. At least the
Magnum's of a couple of years ago are not intuitive to get
Interstate deep cycle
batteries.

Bob,
Sulfation, I’d say. Try EDTA.

IF those L 16s are much over 5 years old, they could be gone. L16s (of any
brand) have less cycle life than a golf cart battery, just check the charts.
They also don't fair very well long term in float charge.
