Another solar thread (batteries? leased?)

[Durian Fiend]

Thanks for the replies.

The 12v flooded golf cart batteries weigh over 90 pounds. I can manage moving them around okay I just wish there was a handle or something to grab ahold of... I have far more days behind me than ahead of me doing stuff like that.  Any ballpark idea how much they charge for a 285AH AGM or what the country of origin is?

I think they're around $650. They do have handles.  SE Asia manufactured, Malaysia or Vietnam.
